    Kettle Falls Locust Grove Group Site — Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area

    Mosquito infestation

    We pulled in and as soon as we got out the car a swarm of mosquitoes immediately started attacking. We tried to just look past it and set up, they were just really annoying we sprayed ourselves down with mosquito repellent and it almost didn’t work. We found ourselves almost using up a whole new can. Great spot for a big group but unfortunately we ended up leaving early.

    Shady Pines Resort

    This place is a hidden gem!

    Relaxing stay, great panoramic water view and excellent customer service. Our dogs were happy playing in the water and watching the deer, geese and herons. Good WiFi. I really liked the bistro lights in the evening. We drove through the other 2 campgrounds in the area to compare - Shady Pines was definitely the best choice!

    J R Campground

    Campground

    Several car sized pull outs along a dirt road, very close to the main road. Has a bathroom. In a very wooded area, not many views.

    Sun Cove Resort

    Beautiful Resort, Incredible People, Great Fishing

    This campground is absolutely worth paying for, there are water hook ups, and restrooms, a laundry facility and cabins for rent if you don't want to stay in a tent or in a camper. They have boats for rent in this incredible saltwater lake and it's a wonderful place to bring kids. There is a water trampoline and a place to swim and paddle boat rentals and more. This trout fishing is world class.

    Carl Precht RV Park Eastside Park

    Clean and Green

    A comfortable park on the banks of the Okanagan River at the stampede grounds..... Well maintained with large shade trees. And, a great dog park for your pups...

    East Omak RV Park

    Shady on a Hot Day

    Found this on the way up to North Cascades on an unusually hot day. It hit the spot, easy, paved pull-thru sites with plenty of shade and hookups for electric and water. Apparently there have been some issues with homeless folks also enjoying the shade so be advised.

    Hartman's Log Cabin Resort

    Amazing Fishing - Beautiful Lake(s)

    We have stayed here two times, with our little starlight Tent Trailers. Almost a week each time. The setting is beautiful. The lake is clean and full of fish!!

    Bald eagles, Loons, turtles, even Moose & Bears ! The resort office has a small cafe and store. This resort has been around for many years and is a bit run-down. Some their old log cabins are looking like very old log cabins. Wonderful if you don't care about level floors. They also have a multi-room motel if you want that instead. Common Bathrooms that also show their age. 

    There are boat docks, with slips for rent. Paying the dock fee or camping covers the Indian reservation recreation fee. An Indian reservation fishing license is required here, but not a Washington State License. If you have a WA license, you still need the Reservation License.
