"It’s close to Yakima and great for a place to visit while you’re in “The Palm Springs of Washington”."
"Lol A skunk did cross our path and ran behind our tent...but that's all the action. During this time it was $25 a night for tents. It was close to town but not TOO close....BIG park."
$22 / night
"Activities that campers can enjoy at this campground are hiking fishing, hunting, horseback riding and mountain biking
There is also white water paddling on the Tieton River Summer camping season is"
"There is a shallow part near the shoreline where the kids had a great time playing in the river. The river itself is wide and very fast moving."
$15 / night
"One thing I love about Washington is that there are so many different places to hike. My husband and I stayed here, which is close to White Pass where there are tons of great hikes."
"We stayed at the campsite #1 which is adjacent to the boat launch."
$38 / night
"My husband and I don't really ever make our way around the Yakima area, only because the hiking there is more "desert" feel and in the summer the rattlesnakes are out and about."
"Many deer in the area, even walking through the campsite at times. The park does get pretty busy for day use, like hiking and fishing but nothing too crazy. The suspension bridge is awesome!"
$27 - $54 / night
"Large sites, some with access to the River. Highway noise was pretty loud in some of the upper sites. Bathrooms (pit toilets) were very clean and the camp host was lovely! Nice recreation area nearby."
"Had a great time next to the river."
$22 / night
"A ginormous site right on the Tieton River (seriously, you could fit like 4 tents on this site). Two walkdowns directly from your site to the river, giving you a (very small) private “beach.”"
"Big huge site with no direct neighbors that backs up to the Tieton river, which is accessible from the site. Super nice to hear rushing water 24/7 at camp."
"This is right off I90 very convenient but close to freeway so some road noise. I90 is the main east west freeway in Washington. It is right on the river and there's a pool."
"Convenient location, close to town. Nice amount of activities but a busy location. If you’re looking for isolation this isn’t the place but kids had a great time."
$15 / night
"This is and ending point for summer rafting trips that start near Ellensburg, WA and a great place for calm water fun. Setup camp in a paved area with overnight fees around $15 per car/site. "
"Not very busy, but it is near a main road and there is some road noise."
$45 - $150 / night
"I wanted to fish for a few days without having to drive to somewhere else to fish. We chose Squaw Rock for its amenities and its river access. Our rating is based on how well it met our desires."
"Close to area fishing and hiking."
"Great for kids, big playground and easy walk near lake."
"Both of our sites had gorgeous views of the lake.
The campground has a cafe and convenience store in the main building. Firewood for sale. Dump station for those without the full hookups."
ScoutAbsolutely amazing spots. Very spread out. Big rig spots for sure but road is very potholey. Go slow. Find a spot. Fire rings. Plenty of wood laying around and if there is no fire ban it’s even better. Hope you get lucky like I did. There is a pay slash donation and worth every penny. Somewhere around 5$ a day or if you’re strapped for cash just cross your fingers.
TravelerThis campground is easy to find right off the highway. The traffic noise overnight wasn't too bad and didn't disrupt our sleep. We had reserved z site online for $8 but there was only one other group that night. This is a dry campsite with clean and well stocked toilets. The en to Ireland site was impeccably clean. It is on the Colombia river so you could fish and there is a beach area for when it warms up. This site suited our needs perfectly. carry on.... P.S. some of the sites are large enough for RV'S. We kept our pickup hitched to our 21 foot camper and fit nicely.
TravelerNo toilets or water, but you can get s spot right next to the river! right in the forest so lots of shade, and great for dogs as well!
LegendWe had high hopes for this USFS campground, having read that it’s on an airstrip, it sounded neat. But we decided not to stay here after we checked it out. There were lots and lots of other campers there, lots of camo, lots of large pickup trucks that don’t slow down on gravel roads, lots of “don’t tread on me” flags. We drove to the end where the bathroom is and decided to turn around, though it seems that the camp spots do continue after that point. This was on a Saturday, in all fairness, so the vibe might be different during the week.
It’s a 14 day stay limit, and other than the toilets there are no other amenities, so please pack out your trash. At the entrance it says that the following passes are honored: Annual Northwest Forest Pass, Golden Eagle Passport, and Washington and Oregon Recreation Pass. However, at the bathrooms, there’s another sign that says a $5 day use fee required. Doesn’t make sense that camping is free with certain passes but for day use it’s a $5 fee, but since we weren’t staying we didn’t look much into it. No ATV or off road riding here.
Cell signal was very weak for Verizon and non-existent for ATT. Giving it 4 stars instead of 3 because it wasn't so bad that I wouldn't be willing to check it out again the next time we're in the area.

GuideAll of the Clear Lake campgrounds are closed for two years. Sad. It’s a beautiful area though hoping to go back someday.

TravelerDispersed camping area with a lot of places to pull off the road and camp. We were able to find a spot with our 32ft camper.
TravelerYou have to keep your eye out for the turn off.
The road can be a bit thin, so I would be careful with extra large vehicles. It is also a bit of a challenging road, so low clearance vehicles wouldn’t be treated well.
It’s a great location. Some spots close to the water and others in the trees.
Great views and I felt very safe as a solid traveler.
I can tell that this would get pretty full in the busy season and on weekends
