Located along the west fork of the Teanaway River, the camp offers 55 campsites with fire rings and two ADA-accessible toilets.
Welcome to Barn Valley. 4 acres of fully cross fenced private land for you to come enjoy. What's cross fenced mean? Simply put, you get a private camp section enclosed in so your furry critter can roam free and you don't have to worry about uncle Carl stealing your beers in the middle of the night from the campsite nextdoor.
We are ideally located 300 yards from river access(follow western fenceline to the river, stay within 5 feet of fence, rest is private land), minutes from hiking, biking, fishing and horse back riding destinations. Oh, is it winter? Snowshoe, ski and snowmobile then!
With the Teanaways ideal weather, every day can be an adventure.
Potable Water accessible at center section of the 3 middle campsites. Pull pump up and push back hard and water will come out (it comes out fast and with lots of pressure, be ready).
Each campground has atleast a 9'3" wide cattlemen gate (sites 1 and 3 have 14'+ gates). Most RVs and vehicles can fit through (measure your vehicle mirror to mirror and trailers widest points), and main homes 1/2 acre wide driveway makes it easy to navigate a back in travel trailer as well. Site 1-3 are 50 Feet Wide by 90 feet long. Each one can have a fire until late Aug (fire ban). Please douse fires after done. Blue Jug near pump along fence.
10-15 minutes to breweries, distilleries and restaurants. 1 hour to North Bend/Leavenworth, 1.5 to Bellevue. Welcome to tranquil Barn Valley! Every adventure, hiking, biking, snowshoeing etc.. is accessible from property or a short drive away.
Note: If you're coming to camp in the winter. Be smart, pack warm and only drive capable 4x4/all wheel vehicles with good traction tires and a plan for deep snow. We do not shovel. Spare shovel located at pumphouse.
Sites are dog friendly ( do not leave your animals unattended). Equine/group lot is site 4. It is 2 acres and allows for only one person to book and pay for all other attendees. Just like sites 1-3, please be respectful of others and ask permission to approach other peoples animals, property and campsites. Park vehicles inside fenceline (inside your campsite).
Quiet hours at sunset. NO generators past 10pm.
This is a fun and family friendly location. Main home is an airbnb and family cabin that uses northern pasture and reserves the right to the main homes parking and fenced in area for their animals. Please keep it safe for all and close all gates after passing through them. Pack out what you pack in. NO toilets, no trash cans, no nonsense. Just have fun. The valley is special for all. Lets keep it that way. Lots of deer, birds and grasshoppers.
$25 - $75 / night
T mobile 5G. Dead fish and algae in the lake- green speckles. The water is green. The picnic tables are partially buried in the sand. The discovery pass including the processing fee was $13. The sites are big and well spaced along the reservoir shoreline. Saw about 3 Pit toilets equally spaced along the shore line. Nice old trees providing shade. Nice breeze to close the day. Can't see any flies.
I was unhappy we could not find this place on Hipcamp.
I was excited to find it on dyrt.com
I am sad the former owner emailed me to explain he had sold it to a neighbor and it is not available.
About a 20 minute drive from Clu Elum. Free with a Discovery Pass but no one checked while I was there. Plenty of spots even late on a Friday. No water or trash but some vault toilets
FYI, the website it not available and I the reservation line has been disconnected.
Beautiful and quiet. We stayed one night with car and rooftop tent. Arrived late 7pm but there were enough spots left. Toilets clean. River nearby.
Pros: good fishing, good amenities (shower, bathroom, etc), price, cleanliness, availability. Cons: Typical designated camping stacked right next to each other so barking dogs, crying kids, or drunks are highly likely to be a nuisance. Overall it's really well maintained and accessible. There's a little grocery store/market/gas across from the park on 262 if you need anything.
We had 2 opportunities to stay at this campground in the fall of 2023. This is a very picturesque location and very quiet. Full hookups are available as well as pull through sites.
Perfect in every way. Close to a major town, store and restaurant across the road, giant sites with a good layout to still feel somewhat secluded and if you’re an angler, you’re 100 yards away from the boat launch.
I showed up Saturday evening and found a spot no prob. It was crowded (and very loud) but most parties acknowledged the 10PM quite hrs. By Sunday evening 90% of the crowd had left and it was heavenly! The toilets were well maintained, honestly very clean for the location etc. i was impressed. No water/electricity. T-mobile was hit or miss - couldn’t connect hot spot.
Well maintained with lots of trees which is not typical for the surrounding area. Had full services which was nice because it was warm and the air conditioning was appreciated.
If tenting, I wish we had done a walk-in site, it is only 20 feet to walk in, and by the river. The campground, I am assuming would be great if in an RV. We slept in our car. There were generators running most of the day, and an outdoor TV. Maybe just bad luck on our part. But people were respectful of the quiet hours.
I should have read more reviews that talked about dispersed camping up the road a bit.
As others stated bring your own tp! We arrived a Monday, so maybe it got ‘wiped’ out over the weekend.
Lots is shade at sites, with patches of sun also for getting warmer when you want to. Fairly bug free end of June.
The campground was very clean and parking a 25 ft trailer was easy. Many camping spots for trailers. Camp fill up quickly. Quiet place. Large camping spots. Clean toilets. Creek and river access from campground.
Beautiful campground with several dispersed spots, most with picnic table and fire pit. There are walk in (50 to 100 feet walk) sites as well as horse camping sites. Pit toilets are clean, don’t smell, and have TP. Road in campground is in good condition with pretty new gravel. Large frisbee golf course borders campground to east. River runs along southern edge. Verizon 1-bar LTE on east side. WeBoost made it a very usable 3 bars. Starlink works too - most sites have good openings to sky.
Quiet, easy access, tons of stars. Lots of space. Love that these are fully fenced so our pups can relax off leash with us after our day adventures
The camp sight we stayed in was pretty clean. Small distances in between each site so you don't feel like you're camping ontop of other people. Wake up to the sounds of ravens yelling and chipmunks trying to climb in your car throughout the day!
Pros:: The park itself is pretty and green. The bathrooms are clean and well kept with free showers. The campsite are spacious but there is no privacy. The kids loved the playground and there are community volleyball nets that are nice. There’s a nice hiking trail nearby although be cautious of snakes, we came across a very large gopher snake on the trail.
Cons:: we thought the kids would be able to swim but there’s not really any good place to do it here. Definitely caters more to the fishing and boating crowd.
There was also a large group of maybe 100+ people having an annual gathering that had personal volleyball nets up in the middle of fields throughout the park and they would assemble to play right behind our site and leave trash all over the place. When we were asked by the ranger to turn our music off at 8:59pm we mentioned it and he told us they come every year and he knows they will pick it up before they leave. Then they were extremely loud and disruptive all night.
And last but not least, beware of TICKS. We found a lot on our dogs and even some crawling on us. Apparently it’s common on that side of the Cascades but I wasn’t aware so come prepared for those.
Came in for an over night. Quick check in and friendly staff. Loved the picturesque view of the hills and enjoyed watching the cows and bulls .
Great campground. It was very quiet. Sites had plenty of space between them. Great location. Even had WiFi. Not great WiFi but still. It was a nice place.
Relaxing spot nestled within the Teanaway Community Forest. A few basic toilets dot the area and campsites are separated by picnic tables and fire rings. Not much underbrush around, but the numerous pines give ample shade in the afternoon and evening. Only a few other campers in the area and camping is free with Discover Pass.
Last visited in 2020. New is Wi-Fi. I did remote work off and on. Used to come every year in late summer when water level is low and there are more sand dunes. There's 6 circular FHU loops (back in only), a group camp and cabin loop. In the main campground campsites are well spaced with room in the middle of each loop to park boats or extra cars. There are token operated showers, boat trailer parking and fish cleaning stations. Our kids would bike, scooter and use the playground. We boat out to the dunes, spend the day on a dune and fish and do water sports from there. The swimming area is hit and miss depending on the water level. Be aware of lots of vegetation in the water near the shore. Sometimes swimming is prohibited when there is a toxic algae break out. So check ahead. Also, when tenting during the week (M-Th), pitch tents on tent pad, not the grass (read the signs posted). Sprinklers run regularly. At night you can hear the coyotes. Boat launch area was rebuilt and can get busy. It's our fam fav.
Lots of people. Was quiet at night during our stay. River access for the kids. If you are a mountain biker, this spot will not disappoint with the trail system right out of camp.
This is a good place to camp, but.
While we did have good coverage for our Verizon phones. We got site 98 which backs up to the lake. Great idea, but due to people having no manners, we had people walking through our campsite to get to the water to fish constantly.
This was also the first time we experienced animal problems on a camping trip. Normally, we move all our food under our awning to a small table we keep beside the TT for cooking. This trip, there were racoons that liked our food more than we did. First night, we lost a half gallon glass jar of dog food. It had a lid on it, and it took me until the second night to figure it out. I thought we had just misplaced it since nothing else was missing. But after the activities on the second night we knew where the dog food went. Ended up loosing a box of graham crackers, bag of marshmallows, and a bag of burger buns.
Other than the animal issue(self induced). The camp site was fine. I do find the placement of the large boulders to be odd! We had to back our TT all the way into the camp site due to they line each side of the camp sites with huge boulders. I am talking big ones, they are at least half the size of the picnic tables. This would be fine, but they put one on each side of the entrance to the camp site which does make it a bit concerning to back in. And once in, you have to make sure you place your TT in the right place so you don't have one in front of your door.
There was no hookups at this site, it was fairly flat, but it was VERY dust! There was very little grass, odd for end of April, so the site was mainly just a dirt patch which was dry enough it was pretty much just dust.
Another observation was that while they did have a couple water taps (dish washing station) on this loop, they were both on the other side of the loop, so we would have to either walk through others camp sites or walk around the entire loop.
With the issues with animals, I would suggest you dump your trash nightly, but there was no dumpsters on this loop. The closest was about half way back to the check-in booth, in the boat ramp parking lot. This was about 1/2 mile from our camp site.
We didn’t get to fish but we spent the night here on our way home from Seattle. Great park. Nice views. A fair amount of space between the camp spots. WiFi also.
As others have said, this campground is on the reservoir at Moses Lake, but it is maybe 20-30 minutes from town. There are really several sections to this campground and they each have a different feel. I am not much of a fisherman, and have always stopped here while traveling, but I have always found it relaxing. If you are a fisherman, you will probably love this campground. Otherwise it would be a nice place to spend a weekend relaxing with friends.
The RV sites are separated into groups of circles where the sites radiate off like spokes on a wheel. Tall poplars surround these groups to break up the wind that can really get blowing in this area of the state. The sites themselves are gravel driveways in a grass field. There are trees within each group but there is very little privacy, even though the sites are quite large. These sites have access to a single restroom with flush toilets and showers. However, the restroom is starting to show its age quite badly.
The tent sites are in two loops amongst some trees. These are definitely my favorites spots in the campground. The sites are gravel/dirt driveways in a more rustic and less grassy setting. These sites are not level, so any RV will require some effort if you care about that. Privacy is still not great but it is better than the RV sites. The biggest issue with the tent sites is that the restrooms are pit toilets (I believe, but I didn’t go in).
I was so impressed with the organized check-in process, efficient simple paperwork, and welcoming feeling I got when we rolled up without a reservation. We were even "escorted" to our spot! There are lots of trees, cows and horses near by and it's super quiet, oh, except for the numerous freight trains than ran through the night. Bring ear plugs, problem solved. The grounds are immaculate; you can tell these people really care about this place. There's a gate to enter and exit so we felt very safe and there weren't random vehicles driving around. Beautiful rolling hills and open wheat fields made for a lovely bike ride. Definitely recommend this place!
Got a little dusty and windy but once it died down the the view of the starts was worth the minor hassle.
