    "Campground Review:

    Potholes State Park is located in Central Washington, a bit south of Moses Lake. The climate is arid desert so expect hot days, cool nights, and occasional gusty winds. "

    "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."

    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!

    Long Lake

    Beautiful, but not convenient

    I stayed here for a night on my way through the area. This is a very beautiful reserve to explore and spend time in. The birds are abundant and the whole area is very serene. However, BOY was the road rough. No 4wd or high clearance needed, but you will be absolutely shaken and rattled on the way out to the lake. Also, this area is not free!! A Discover Pass is required (either annual for $35 or day for $11.50). I spotted a few toilets on my way in, but they were too far from most of the sites to conveniently use. The site I ended up in was scattered with cigarette butts, beer trash, and bits of glass. I am not a very picky camper, but unfortunately the positives didn’t outweigh the negatives here for me personally. All of that being said, this place probably really floats some people’s boats!! Crazy beautiful!!

    Trail Lake Dispersed

    Trash Everywhere

    We checked out about 5 campsites here and each was covered in trash. One even had a full black garbage bag. Looks like a place for people to go and party. It was a shame because the views were beautiful and I would’ve loved to stay and paddle-board.

    Burke Lake West

    Post-Dave Rave Car Camping

    Coordinates woulda taken us down a dirt road with a lotta potholes so we just pulled a bit off the road and car camped. It was next to some farmland after a Dave Matthews concert @ the Gorge. No amenities where we were, but quite beautiful.

    Trail Lake Dispersed

    Nice Lake, bugs are very friendly 😁

    Enjoyed our time here. The entrance is not marked that I can see. Follow the directions to a Bob wire fence where you turn in. There is a turn off not too far in on the right. I assume there are more campsites. Unfortunately, when we went, there was a sizable mud puddle that I didn't feel like driving through. I'll explore that next time. But further ahead it opens up to the beautiful lake. The campsite(s) are surrounded by the lake. Kinda like a peninsula. It's a large area with room for a good size group or maybe up to 5 individual sites. There were remnants of a few fire rings. Only one other small family camping when we were there. The water is nice and cool. Good for cooling down on a hot day. Saw a few people fishing from small boats. There are no trees for shade. But there are lots of very friendly bugs that want to say hi. When we first arrived, it was pretty breezy. As soon as it died down the welcoming community came out in full effect. Which just happened to correspond with when we were making dinner for the night. They, of course, invited themselves. It got so bad that as soon as we were done cooking, we each took our plates, and scurried away to our tents to eat and turn in for the night. There was a good variety of bugs. Mosquitoes, small flies, no see'ems. They probably wouldn't bother you too much if you had a fire going and maybe some bug repellent. But bugs are to be expected when you're next to water. And since there were lots of bugs there were also lots of birds to watch. As far as the actual camping, it's kind of a chore to set up tents just because the ground is so rocky. But if you have a good mallet and sharp tent steaks as well as some patients you'll be fine. It got pretty cool during the evening, even chilly overnight. So it was pretty comfortable overall. There is a noise factor to deal with though there are some roads nearby so you do hear cars throughout the night. But overall, it's a pretty nice place with a beautiful lake. The cell reception for T-Mobile was great. It seems to be a first come camp. I believe it is free. We have a Discovery Pass. But we saw zero signs to say either way and there was no pay station. We would definitely come back. Just with better bug protection and floaties for the lake😁

    Crescent Bar Campground (Grant PUD Crescent Bar Recreation Area)

    EXTREMELY unfair cancellation policy!

    It's a beautiful place and we have stayed there several times, but hold on to your wallet!  If for some reason you have to cancel your reservation they will RIP YOU OFF with their unfair and completely exploitative cancellation policy.  In our case, we wanted to cancel and then planned to re-book later in the fall, which is also a great time to visit Eastern WA.  We called 7 weeks ahead to let them know we could not come when we had planned to.  They kept HALF of our fee ($237.50) even though there is ample time for them to re-book the site.  Yes, their paperwork does state their policy, but that doesn't make it FAIR.  Most other campgrounds charge a nominal fee and are OK with cancelling up to 48 hours ahead.  But 7 weeks ahead?  Give me a break.  This campground was funded with tax $$ too-Grant County PUD and now has contracted out the management to the Central Washington Management Group in Quincy.

    So many mosquitos!!

    Beautiful spot, but literally the most mosquitos I’ve ever seen (and I used to work in the woods of northern Maine). My family can deal with basically any conditions and we bailed to drive into the night after 30 minutes of painful tent set up.

    Blue Lake

    Not a good place

    This is a soft gravel parking lot and on a slope. One pit toilet and used by people that care less about others using it. A real pit.

    Frenchman Coulee Dispersed Camping

    Great spot, high clearance helpful

    Restrooms and ample spots close to climbing. Lower sites can be reached with normal vics, higher sights would benefit from clearance.
