Yakima River Canyon Campgrounds (Umtanum, Lmuma Creek, Big Pines, Roza)

Yakima River Canyon Campgrounds offer 4 options to choose from, each of them a few miles apart. The other 3 options are quite small with only about 6 sites each, and Big Pines about 40 sites. All of them have vault toilets and NONE OF THEM HAVE WATER. We spend a weekend at Big Pines in September and really enjoyed our stay. The campground was quiet, many campers leaving during the day to go hiking or spend time on the river boating and/or fishing. We rode our bicycle on Canyon Road which at this time of the year was not busy. At 15$ per night or 7.50$ if you have the senior discount there is not much you can complain about. We plan in going back.

Some reviews mentioned the train waking them during the night. With that in mind we did bring ear plug and did hear any in our small trailer.
