I had wanted to visit this campground for years and it was worth it. The feel of this campground is very different than those just down the road towards Cle Elum. Much closer to an alpine feel than the lower pine forests. It’s a very peaceful campground with a lot of large private sites and also sites along the river. In fact the river runs down two sides of the campground.

It is a more primitive campground. There are only pit toilets and water that must be hand pumped. There is also a picnic area for day use.

We arrived here Wednesday evening and found a site pretty easily (we had no reservation). There were sites available until Friday mid-day.

Activities include hiking, biking, playing in the river and visits to Roslyn.

The good:

• well maintained
• paved roads and driveways
• a lot of sites on the river and access for those not
• large private sites
• double sites
• a lot of nearby activities

The bad:

• nothing comes to mind

The OK:

• decent smelling pit toilets
• limited potable water (all hand pumps and only 1 or 2 were working during our visit)
