Rustic and deluxe cabin options vary significantly in size and amenities across the region. KOA cabin camping tends to be more developed, with propane grills provided outside each unit and community fire pits available for evening gatherings. Pet policies differ by location, with Spokane KOA Journey and Premier RV Resort at Granite Lake allowing pets in select cabins. According to one reviewer at Chief Timothy Park, "The cabins are cute and small. No bathrooms in them but there are public bathrooms and showers." Reservations are strongly recommended, particularly during summer months when occupancy rates are high. Most cabin sites operate seasonally, with limited availability between November and March, though some like Northern Quest RV Resort remain open year-round.

Most cabin rentals provide beds with mattresses but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary widely, from basic microwaves in standard cabins to partial kitchens with refrigerators and stovetops in deluxe units. Cedar Village Motel & RV offers longer-stay cabins with full kitchens and some units featuring decks. Cooking utensils, dishware, and cleaning supplies are typically not provided, so visitors should pack these essentials. While some campgrounds have on-site stores selling basic provisions, the Premier RV Resort at Granite Lake benefits from its proximity to major retailers including Costco, Walmart, and Albertson's in nearby Clarkston, making it convenient for cabin guests to stock up on supplies.

    Clear Lake Military

    Excellent facility—beautiful and clean!

    Military site with everything you could possibly need—tent, RV, and tiny cabins. This site was very well maintained, and very highly trafficked in the summer. Access to water and excellent for some good old fashioned family fun :)

    Spokane KOA Journey

    Dated, crowded, no shade

    We stayed one night in a deluxe cabin. It was spacious enough, with a partial kitchen, AC, and full bath. The grounds are well-kept but older. The cabin was tired—cabinets with loose hinges, squeaky bed, tub drain was slow, WiFi wasn’t working. Each cabin has a propane grill and the one by ours was too dirty to use. There is no shade on the cabins or many of the tent sites and it’s often so hot here in the summer that the AC can’t cool very well. It was 82 in our cabin despite running the AC and keeping all the blinds closed. The pool is clean but very cold and there is no shade on the playground so go in the morning or evening if you don’t want to get burned. Nothing nearly except a Wendy’s and a convenience store. Trains going by all night nearby.
    Fine for one night, but don’t recommend an extended stay Note: they do not allow EV charging but there is no written policy anywhere on the website or in any of the registration emails.

    Large KOA conveniently located near I-90. Very clean bathrooms/showers. Pool, playground, community fire pit, and multiple dog areas. Generally quiet area except a nearby train blowing its horn a couple times during the night.

    Hawleys Landing Campground — Heyburn State Park

    Great Campground but loud maintenance

    We stayed at Chatcolet campground for two nights in late June. The campground is really nice with lovely hosts and clean flushable toilets. We booked site 128 and didn’t realise it was a tent only site with a short walk from where you park to the picnic table, fire ring and tent pad. We have a rooftop tent so we parked and set up our tent and then just carried our chairs, food and wood down to the picnic table. Privacy on these sites isn’t the best, I would recommend booking this site along with 129 as a group site to give yourself good privacy.

    Overall this campground was great, the toilets were clean, they are porcelain, flushing toilets inside a hut. There was drinking water and some nice walks to the lake, if you have bicycles there is a really nice cycle that you can do. The reason for rating this 3 out of 5 is that there was very noisy and intrusive maintenance going on from 7am to 5pm in the sites next to us which was very disruptive. No warning had been given about maintenance in the campground, notice was only given regarding roadworks leading into the campground.

    Nice campground

    Nice 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.

    Liberty Lake Regional Park

    Terrific sunsets!

    Nice 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.

    Liberty Lake Regional Park

    Quaint & Enjoyable!

    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. We stayed at tent site 10 and it has been perfect. $27/night for tent and $38/night for RVs. Pet friendly, great host, facilities, and plenty of space.

    Clear Lake Recreation Area

    Party place

    This 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.

    Bowl and Pitcher Campground — Riverside State Park

    Gorgeous!!! Bowl and Pitcher

    This is a larger campground great for RV, trailers and tents. The sites are enclosed in a circle, making a nice walk or bike ride. The campgroundl has partial hook ups and is very camper friendly otherwise.

    Sites are pretty open not offering a good amount of privacy, though most are along the Spokane River. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring, with bbq grate. The site has showers and flushing toilets!!

    This is a perfect getaway for people looking to unplug as no cell service (tested on sprint, verizon, and google fi) is available. There is tons of wildlife and lots of trails and riverbank to explore.my favorite thing was the suspension bridge over the river. Lots of space for swimming and fishing!
