Most campgrounds cater to RV travelers with full hookups, though some like Beach RV Park also accommodate tent campers and cabin rentals.

The camping season near Prosser extends year-round at most established sites, though summer brings higher occupancy rates at popular destinations. Many RV parks in the area maintain level sites with gravel or concrete pads, making them accessible regardless of weather conditions. Sites typically include standard hookups with water and electric service, while premium locations may feature additional amenities like sewer connections and WiFi access. Cell service remains reliable throughout the region due to the proximity to towns and highways. One camper noted the practical layout of the area, writing "It's a rest stop but it has a dump station and a fresh water refill. Also restaurants within walking distance and Loves truck stop across the street. Pretty much everything you need within a circle."

Wine tourism shapes the camping experience in the Prosser area, with several RV parks strategically positioned near vineyards and tasting rooms. Horn Rapids RV Resort receives consistent praise for its cleanliness and amenities, with visitors noting its convenience to local attractions. Campers seeking more natural settings can find limited options along the Yakima River, which borders several campgrounds in the region.

    Pasco Tri-Cities KOA

    Clean and friendly

    Sites are clean, level and well manicured. Showers are clean and spacious. Staff are friendly and very accommodating.

    Plymouth Park Campground

    Nice for a day

    The sites are level and paved, easy for any size rig. But there is little to no shade, and the sites have no space between or privacy.

    Lawns are irrigated and green so that is a nice touch. Host is sweet and seems to be on top of things

    Boardman Marina Park

    Beautiful spot on the Columbia

    Campsites are large. And level. There’s lots of grass picnic tables fire pit. there’s a walking trail along the river and it’s close to town. There are clean restrooms with free showers and paid laundry facility. Seems to work pretty well.

    Arrowhead RV Park

    Nice spot to stay and explore!

    Great spot to spot up and explore the tri cities area. Definitely a lot of spots to get on the river!

    Crow Butte Park

    clean and enjoyable

    A big shout out to Wayne, the camp host. He was such a life saver. The in-line water filter in our fifth wheel blew apart so we were checking to find the nearest RV parts place, on a Saturday evening. Wayne had a spare! He let us borrow his spare water filter for the duration of our stay, which saved us a 2-hour round-trip drive to Prosser.  While the camp hosts are around, visible, and staying busy, they let the campers be campers to enjoy their time.

    The water was super calm, so kayaking was very enjoyable. The grounds were clean and green.

    Patterson Slough on Rock Creek

    Not a dispersed camping area!

    Went to check it out but it's a nasty old concrete slab with a no camping sign, a cruddy old boat ramp, and a nasty body of water. No cell service and something creepy about the place...

    Plymouth Park Campground

    Not my style of camping

    It’s a cute spot if you don’t mind sharing right spaces and zero privacy. The spots are basically pull outs off the camp roadway. Nice for a pit stop on the drive but I wouldn’t prefer to stay there more than that. Personally, I’ve stayed better places for free and the $30 tag for the spot wasn’t worth it for me.

    Threemile Canyon Park

    A place to park for free

    Toilet here, more like a large gravel parking lot but quiet place to get some rest. About a mile down the gravel road after you turn off the exit.

    Yakima Sportsman State Park Campground

    Peaceful. Clean. Scenic.

    I was only there a few hours. This is a great go-to spot when fresh air, trees, or restful nap are what you need. Tent camping available. No over night camping allowed.


Guide to Prosser

Camping options near Prosser, Washington range from established RV resorts to riverfront sites along the Columbia and Yakima Rivers. The area sits in Washington's wine country at approximately 700 feet elevation with summer temperatures regularly exceeding 90°F from June through August. Winter camping remains viable with daytime temperatures typically above freezing, though some facilities reduce services during the off-season.

What to do

Wine tours with shuttle service: Wine Country RV Park provides a shuttle van for exploring nearby wineries. One camper noted, "If you want a place to park your rv (they do have tent sites also), with full hook ups while you explore the local wineries, with a pool and a shuttle van, then this place is amazing."

Columbia River trails: Boardman Marina Park offers access to riverside recreation along a 2.8-mile trail. "There's a walking trail along the river and it's close to town. There are clean restrooms with free showers and paid laundry facility," according to a visitor.

Island exploration: Crow Butte Park sits on an island in the Columbia River accessible by a short causeway. A camper shares: "Trails over and around the butte (no rattlesnakes seen, though signs warned about them) provide great vistas of the Columbia River."

Watersports access: The area's river locations provide boat launches and swimming areas. At Crow Butte Park, a visitor reported, "The water was super calm, so kayaking was very enjoyable. The grounds were clean and green."

What campers like

Clean facilities: Horn Rapids RV Resort receives consistent praise for maintenance standards. One camper stated, "This RV park is the best maintained park I have ever seen. The lots are not real big, but the landscaping is pristine (think golf course) and overall the park is meticulously maintained."

Year-round availability: Most campgrounds in the area remain open throughout the year. Wine Country RV Park welcomes winter visitors, with one camper mentioning, "We stayed for 4 nights while hunting in the area. Place is well maintained and we had more than adequate space but that is due to few campers."

Riverside camping options: Multiple locations provide access to the Yakima and Columbia Rivers. At Beach RV Park, a visitor appreciated being "right by the water" and noted the park is "quiet and shaded."

Convenient urban access: For those needing supplies or amenities, several campgrounds offer proximity to services. A Horn Rapids RV Resort camper mentioned, "It has a nice little mini mart, drive through spots, full hookups, playground for the kids, clean bathrooms/showers, and allows pets. It is also close to Safeway and right outside the gate is a camper trailer friendly gas station with diesel."

What you should know

Noise considerations: Proximity to highways affects some campgrounds. At Beach RV Park, a tent camper mentioned, "Great site off the freeway- but because it's close, you'll hear cars all night."

Pet restrictions vary: Not all parks welcome all sizes of dogs. One visitor to Wine Country RV Park warned about a "40 POUND LIMIT" for dogs, calling it "Shallow minded management."

Limited tent options: Most facilities primarily serve RVs. When tent camping is available, it may have distinct limitations. At Pasco Tri-Cities KOA, a camper observed, "The tent sites are pull through and small. All have electricity and water."

Wildlife awareness: Campers should prepare for local wildlife. At Crow Butte Park, a camper reported, "I don't think I've ever seen so many spiders in one place. In the morning, I had spiders in each of my door handles, my mirrors, when I turned on my car they started crawling out of the hood."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several campgrounds offer dedicated play areas. At Horn Rapids RV Resort, visitors mention "a playground for the kids," while Pasco Tri-Cities KOA features "a pool and Hot tub. Great maintenance and services."

Swimming opportunities: River access provides natural swimming areas at select locations. At Crow Butte Park, a camper mentioned a "nice little beach for swimming" and noted it was a "fun little park for the kids."

Educational opportunities: The Columbia River environment offers learning experiences. Morning wildlife observation can be rewarding, with one Crow Butte Park visitor noting, "There are really cute baby frogs hopping all around in the mornings though which was very cute. Just watch your step."

Entertainment proximity: Some campgrounds provide access to local attractions beyond camping. At Kiona West, campers enjoy "Winery Views from this awesome campground."

Tips from RVers

Extended stay options: For longer visits, inquire about monthly rates. At Horn Rapids RV Resort, a camper shared, "We had a family emergency and stayed at this RV resort for almost two months. Crista was very accommodating and helpful to find us a monthly spot."

Technical assistance: Staff at some locations will help with equipment issues. At Crow Butte Park, an RVer reported, "The in-line water filter in our fifth wheel blew apart so we were checking to find the nearest RV parts place, on a Saturday evening. Wayne had a spare! He let us borrow his spare water filter for the duration of our stay."

Site selection strategy: Certain sites offer advantages based on season and weather. At Crow Butte Park, a camper advised that "the higher numbered sites, roughly 32-50 (toward the butte, away from the mainland) tend to be calmer" during windy conditions.

Hookup variations: Availability changes seasonally at some parks. One camper at Boardman Marina Park noted disappointment: "We were disappointed to find there was no water hookup as they had already winterized. It would have been nice if that had been included in the outgoing message so we could have gotten water elsewhere."
