This recreation area is part of Lake Bryan
Laird Park Campground, located in the northwest Idaho town of Potlatch and named in memory of A.W. Laird, a lumberman and early leader in the Potlatch Lumber Co., is a fantastic location to bring your family, friends or maybe even your boy or girl scout troupe for some outdoor fun and swimming. The recreation area has a sandy beach (a result of a swimming beach dam built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1933), 2 group picnic areas as well a half-mile interpretive trail.__Fishing is a popular passtime here too, with abundant opportunities for rainbow and brown trout from the Palouse River.

Clear Lake Recreation Area is amazing! The scenery is beautiful, and there are plenty of activities for everyone.

We just stayed here for the first time. We were at Boyer Park & Marina, a KOA, Sept. 1-5, 2024. While the campground was full when we pulled in on Sunday, it was almost empty when we woke up Labor Day morning. Even when full, everything was pretty quiet. The beach and walking paths are very nice and close by no matter which spot you're in. Just below the Lower Granite Dam, it's an easy three mile round trip walk on a paved Snake River Trail. I do not recommend making that journey when it's 83 degrees and getting warmer. UGH
The store is great with many clothing options and more. Mike and Monica who run the place are so nice and very helpful. Apparently we really missed out by not taking advantage of the grill and ordering a Smash Burger, which will even be delivered to your campsite.
We will definitely be back.

Well, it was a beautiful area , with great scenery but if you have kids under 10 yrs old there is absolutely nothing for them to do. I mean NOTHING. We won't go back. We never saw a single staff member or volunteer in 3 days.
TravelerI love camping at Bowl and Pitcher at least once a year. It's a well kept campground in a gorgeous state park with great hiking and walking trails! I strongly suggest campsite 24 for tent campers, it is the one I always get when I camp here. It is large, nicely shaded, and more private than a lot of the other campsites at the campground.

This is our 3rd visit to Liberty Lake Regional Park. It’s a small campground on Liberty Lake just east of Spokane WA. It’s a little hard to get to, and not suitable for large Class A motorhomes!
There are 16 regular RV sites with water & electric, and they have added 3 sites on top of the hill with full hookups. Also 12 tent sites. Close to Spokane. Hiking and horse trails.
RangerGreat little campground on a meadow behind Liberty Lake. Bathrooms, showers, and a sink for dishes available. Sites aren't super private, but have adequate space. Felt very safe for solo camping. Great halfway between Rainier and Glacier.

I cannot say enough good things about this place! It was very beautiful and clean! It was also very quiet! You are right next to a highway, but you can barely hear it. Robin and Dennis are extremely nice! They will go out of their way to make sure you are happy and safe! They offer so many games and extra amenities that you won’t find at other camp grounds. WiFi was strong, we watched football all day on Saturday! The baked goods are a must! They also sell farm fresh eggs!! We will definitely be back!
TravelerSuper safe and well organized. A little pricey and you need a reservation. Usually packed. Great for families (large and small), boaters, fishers, and the casual glamper needing a break. Bathrooms and showers were clean and accessible. Very developed campground, so not very outdoorsy. If you need a break from people this may not be for you
TravelerLocation and tent sites are Nice. Bathroom is fine and they also sell ice.

We picked this campground for its access to the Trail of the Coeur D’Alenes. The campground is small and peaceful, at least mid week. Lovely views of the lake through the trees. The toilets are flush, but look like outhouses from the outside. A pleasant surprise when you get in.
LegendOnly downside is no Verizon coverage and free wifi is junk. But for $3/day you can get decent wifi. Quiet during the weekdays. Gets REALLY busy on weekends. A lot of families with a lot of kids. If you are a curmudgeon you won’t like it on the weekend. We were entertained. Sites are moderately sized. Huge compared to most KOAs. Grass is immaculate and so is swimming beach. Nice paved trail along river.
GuideThe campsite was in great shape, and neighbors were super respectful. Only complaint would be car noise (we stayed right by the road though), but it wasn’t that bad. Bathrooms were in AMAZING condition and staff was so friendly.
GuideThis place had everything i could possibly want for an affordable price. Boat, kayak and other equipment rentals, restaurant, bathrooms, changing rooms, showers, fishing dock, swimming area, shaded lawns and picnic tables. Only $15 for a dry tent space with shade and view of the lake! Why not give it 5 stars? The visitors are primarily young, drinking, playing loud music, driving fast and kicking up dust. It was annoying but tolerable. Staff was kind, knowledgeable, location is close to I90 and easy to find. Easily a few hundred people here on a summer weekend, so be prepared. Be sure to check out the turtles swimming around the dock. Lots of wildlife.
GuideMilitary ID required.
Sites 1-15 have zero shade and are close together. Dogs are not allowed on the beach or lake areas. Ports-potties for close bathrooms. Okay if you’re staying overnight or here specifically for the lake.
GuideWhile in a beautiful setting with a lot of hiking & biking trails around, the loops part of this campground have the sites close together with no privacy. We were happy to see a heavy presence of Park Rangers over 4th of July weekend. If you're used to dispersed camping, you won't be happy with how close your neighbors are. Maybe it's the perfect campground for non-busy times.
ScoutNice clean park. Owners went the extra mile to accommodate our granddaughters graduation party when the wind and rain came blowing in
GuideNice level car camping spot. Rolled in and took one of the 2 upper road RV sites away from the main campsites below and was treated with a great sweeping view of the lake with a stellar sunset. Good fire ring with grate. Open bbq grill. Picnic table has seen better days. Didn't use the showers. Clean bathrooms. Would stay there again.
ScoutThis is a Spokane County campground about a mile from the Idaho border. It’s located down a country road so use the website to find it. It had two ex-marine hosts when we visited so the potential for yahoos is low. In fact it was neat, tidy, and quiet when we visited for one night. It is a popular place for locals and fills quickly. Warm showers are included. Beware that tent sites 2&3 accommodate one compact vehicle only, this is not clear from website which will accept payment for 2. The other would have to park elsewhere as directed. The park is pleasant with lake access and hiking trails
ScoutIf you want to camp but still be close to all the city amenities then this is the spot for you. Beautiful location by the river with miles of biking & walking trails.
Cons: campsites are very close together with no privacy. If you are looking for an "off the grid" vibe, this is definitely NOT your spot.
GuideNice campground. Level spaces for the most part. Ample space between sites, pull they'd, picnic tables and fire pits. Large pine trees, so plenty of shade and pine cones, clean restrooms. Would stay again. Price is $40/night with electric and water, dump station.
GuideThe Bowl and Pitcher campground sits on the Spokane river just minutes from downtown Spokane. It doesn’t feel like it’s close to town. The area offers miles of hiking and biking trails. The campground has rv sites with water and electricity and tent camping sites. There’s a dump station too.
TravelerVery nice spot for an overnight or a few days. There’s a lot of hiking trails around here. Don’t forget tour Discover Pass.
ScoutDid not have reservations but got lucky with an open site. Make a reservation ahead of time if you want to be guaranteed a site. The campground is full and a bit loud. But very clean and well maintained, including the bathrooms. Each site has a fire ring and picnic table. Multiple water spigots close by. Lots of walking trails nearby and a cool suspension bridge over the river. Other than the lack of solitude, absolutely no complaints.
ScoutGreat trails along the river adjacent to the campground. Warm showers cost a dollar or two, but they're clean and the bathrooms are clean. Would get five stars if they camping sites were more private.
TravelerBeautiful campground on the Spokane River. Hiking and biking trails from the campground. Vintage CCC buildings and suspension bridge. Very nice and clean bathrooms and showers.
GuideI liked this campground and found it clean with generous-sized sites. The river runs through this site, there is a cool suspension bridge to check out as well as some amazing rock structures nearby. I have a couple of issues with it, one the sewage treatment plant is about a mile upstream. So, it's just hard to get excited about jumping in the river with that in mind. Two, it's a little difficult getting in and out of the campground for those of us with trailers and RV's, as the road in/out is narrow and without much of a shoulder. Other than that, it seems well run, is safe & clean with good bathrooms and showers.
GuideClean bathrooms, green lawns everywhere, nice big campsite, and nice family beach area. Lots of garbage cans everywhere but no recycling. The showers were kind of dirty. When you reserve online they don’t allow you to pick your site and so you get what you get and we ended up with a view of the bathroom. Tip- call after booking online to request a site. The winds come through quite a bit which helps with the heat but make sure everything is secured down. A train also comes through right next to the campground at least once a day and it’s LOUD. WIFI is really weak and there is no cell service.
