Liberty Lake Regional Park hosts upscale glamping accommodations just east of Spokane, featuring canvas tents and luxury shelters with comfortable beds, private decks, and electricity. These glamping options provide a premium outdoor experience with picnic tables, hot showers, and climate control while maintaining proximity to the lake. The park's glamping tents are strategically positioned near hiking trails and swimming areas, offering both seclusion and convenience. "For a regional park, my expectations were very much exceeded. Not huge, but more spacious than many other sites, we had plenty of space to set a good area outside without feeling like we were intruding on anyone else nearby."
Visitors at the Newman Lake area glamping sites enjoy direct access to water activities, including swimming at Liberty Lake's sandy beach and fishing from the dock where guests have "even caught a nice bass." Camp Coeur D'Alene and Wolf Lodge Campground provide additional glamping experiences with proximity to natural attractions, including forest hiking trails and wildlife viewing opportunities. These sites maintain amenities like firewood delivery, on-site markets, and hot showers while creating an immersive outdoor experience. A recent visitor noted, "It's operated by the county and has sandy beach, amazing hikes through ancient cedar forest. For an urban glamping experience I think this is as good as it gets."
"We spent 3 weeks at Liberty Lake Regional Park while visiting our son and grandkids in Spokane. The road in is a little narrow, but once in, it’s a great little campground."
"Tucked back behind a neighborhood of fairly luxurious homes and sitting near the lake, these sites offer a nice spot to catch a breath while traveling."

"Numerous well spaced sites with water & electric. Near Lake Pend Oreille. Grab the kayak or boat & enjoy!"
"Staff was very kind and friendly. I came after the office was closed and a map was left for which tent site was mine. Very clean campgrounds, had a cute little dog park in it too."

"Even tho you could spend days exploring and playing in Farragut State Park, there are quite a few things to do outside of the park also."

We stayed here for just one night while driving through, but we would definitely stay again!
The campsites don’t offer much privacy from your neighbors. The setup is more like a parking lot, with the sites backed up along the same edge and only a small amount of space between them. That said, the lake view is really nice.
The park itself is great, with a playground, tetherball, and basketball court. We especially enjoyed the boat and gear rentals. The boats were clean, well-maintained, and in great condition. We stayed on a weekday, so the rentals were half price, which was a nice money saver. They also had inner tubes available at no extra charge to pull the kids behind the boat, which was a fun bonus!
Our site had full hookups (water, sewer, and electric). There’s also a small restaurant on-site with affordable prices, and the staff was very friendly and helpful.
We paid $45 for one night with full hookups, which we thought was a great value. We would definitely stay here again!
Sites are very close together. A lot of full time campers. Not bad for an overnight stay on a trip. Water, electric and dump station for $50 plus tax.
Nice little campground next to I90 with bike trails right across the street. Lots of highway noise and our site was a pull thru but not a lot of space. You can take a tour of the actual gold mine and see some relics
I loved bowl and pitcher but you need a discovery pass to stay and it's not free,
I am in a cab over camper at a tent site and do not need power or water. Easy to level a nice grassy sites. Sites are a bit close together for tents and RVs. Very quiet and I would stay again. Only one night passing through.
Me and the pup had a lot of fun there only stayed two nights
We really enjoyed this Camp Grounds with full hook ups. The campsites are very well kept and maintained have shower houses Trash plenty of places to walk and you’re right on the river. I had good cell service and Stoffer very helpful
If you'd like a lovely campground standing 3000 ft above the northeast Columbia basin, this would be hard to beat. It's simply beautiful. A couple hundred feet you can peer twenty miles to the east (probably more). The campground is small (8 sites) and compact (you'll have neighbors near), but that's a good design choice --- the little plateau at Bald Knob simply isn't big enough for more.
If you're up for a stroll, then climb (or drive!) to the top of Mt. Spokane. On a clear day you can see three states (WA/ID/MT) and two countries (USA/Canada). If you get to the campground and then *don't* take a side trip to the top of Mt. Spokane, you will need to have your head examined. [N.B. If you're driving a motorhome, do *not* drive to the summit past the campground: the narrow one-lane (paved) road is just not going to let you go up while other cars are coming down.]
If you go there at the right time of year, you can stroll a couple hundred feet and harvest huckleberries. Actual huckleberries. I had waffles with fresh huckleberries, so eat your heart out.
This is one of the pricier campgrounds ($39/night in 2026), but there's potable water and restrooms with flush toilets and even hot water(!). And of course, there are bear-proof food lockers and garbage bins for each site.
Liberty Lake Regional Park offers glamping options near Newman Lake, Washington, within a 20-minute drive of the lake. The park sits at approximately 2,100 feet elevation with a continental climate featuring warm summers and cold winters. Summer temperatures typically range from 75-90°F during peak camping season between May and September, with cooler nights dropping to the 50s.
Hiking trails with waterfall views: Liberty Lake Regional Park features several miles of hiking trails with varying difficulty levels. "We stayed at 2 different sites over 3 weeks, and both were level. There is a clean shower/bathroom building and a beach within walking distance of the campground. Several hiking trails, including an equestrian trail, waterfall, fishing and lots of wildlife," notes Joel R. from Liberty Lake Regional Park.
Lake activities beyond swimming: Newman Lake area offers fishing opportunities from designated docks. At Wolf Lodge Campground, visitors can experience water recreation on nearby Lake Coeur d'Alene. "River access from the campground to Coeur d'Alene lake. Close to the city. Beautiful area. Interstate noise is not too bad," reports Nancy C.
Wildlife viewing opportunities: The region supports diverse wildlife populations. Liberty Lake Regional Park offers regular wildlife encounters according to reviewers: "While we were there the campground hosts did a fantastic job of keeping everything clean and tidy. Several hiking trails, including an equestrian trail, waterfall, fishing and lots of wildlife. There were deer in the campground every day, we saw moose, owls, pilated woodpecker, and hawks."
Quiet camping close to urban areas: Many campers appreciate the sense of seclusion despite proximity to Spokane. "Cute and feels remote, but close to town. The campground is close to the water and lots of picnic areas. The RV spots are pretty close, but is surrounded by nature and trails," says Theresa G. from Liberty Lake Regional Park.
Convenient amenities: Camp Coeur D Alene offers numerous on-site amenities that campers appreciate. "This campground was super cozy and safe. They had firewood for sale, a pool, and clean showers and bathrooms. We had a very comfortable stay and were able to connect to the wifi at our tent site," reports Sienna V.
Range of accommodation options: The Newman Lake area provides both traditional camping and upscale glamping. Camp Coeur D Alene offers varied options: "This CG has everything you can ask for from Kayaks on lake CDA to shower, laundry etc and more than one. Everyone is very friendly and just want you to have a good time! Camp sites are well thought out and they have something for everyone at reasonable prices," shares James C.
Seasonal considerations: Liberty Lake Regional Park has a defined operating season. "Only reason I am not giving this five stars that's because it runs between 35 to 75 a night to stay there ranging from camping to full RV hookup. However, it is very close to Spokane and has beautiful hiking trails, a beach where you can swim and kayak and canoe and fish, birds and wildlife around singing beautifully day and night," notes Steve M.
Site selection strategy: Bowl and Pitcher Campground in Riverside State Park requires careful site selection. "Sites one through 18 are on the river and much more spacious and have full utilities. We enjoyed the beauty of the Spokane River, walking across the suspension bridge and hiking the trails," advises Lisa K.
