About

State Park

No trip to Spokane is complete without a stop at Riverside State Park's Lake Spokane campground—perfect for Spokane WA camping. Approximately 9 miles from the city, Riverside provides recreational opportunities for almost every type of visitor. From mountain biking to horseback riding, rock climbing and hiking. Riverside has it all!

You can go as easy or hardcore as you like here. Fifty-five miles of trails will keep hikers and mountain bikers busy. The 40-mile, mixed-use Spokane River Centennial State Park Trail extends from Nine Mile Recreation Area east to the Idaho border. Equestrians will find a horse-friendly campground, 25 miles of trails and an obstacle course with a 60-foot round pen. Off-road vehicle drivers have 600 acres of special terrain. The Little Spokane River welcomes paddlesports enthusiasts (and prohibits inner tubes, bikes and pets). Lake Spokane invites boaters, anglers and water sports fans. And, for those who equate vacation with relaxation, day-use areas, picnic shelters and four different campgrounds offer solid family and camp chair time.

Lake Spokane campground has 11 primitive campsites, a boat launch, one boat wash station, and a bathroom with showers.

Amazing view but windy site

We were lucky and got a last minute ADA site. This site was amazingly clean and with its own private gazebo and concrete slab. The 4 newly upgraded bathrooms each have a flush toilet, sink, and accessible shower. The site has an incredible view of Long Lake but it’s a bit windy too. Please note this campground does not have a RV dump station. To access the water it’s best to drive from your campsite. The boat launch and swim area is nice with lots of individual gazebos and picnic tables. The swim area doesn’t appear to be toddler friendly as it isn’t a gradual incline into the water. There is a single ramp for access however. The restrooms here are 2 vault toilets. We would probably visit this location again.

Quiet refuge

Only about 45 min north of Spokane- quiet spot on the lake and nicely maintained campground.

I had planned to stay at Bowl and Pitcher but gates were locked when I arrived around dusk. Rolled in here and there were plenty of spots open (weeknight) all first come first serve for $27.

Beautiful camp ground

The camp ground is tiny but well worth the visit whether you're boating, swimming, or just wanting to get to get out of town. Friendly care takers and rangers.

Amazing getaway campground!

Me & my friend booked this campsite last summer and i have to say this was by far one of the most eventful camping getaway trips i've been apart of! I was greeted with very thoughtful and caring staff who all obviously care allot about the campground. The bathrooms were cleaned multiple times a day which got rid of my fear of a gross abandoned bathroom. The camp ground we stayed at was maintained nicely and was very spacious where we weren't too close to our neighbors but were close enough to holler some of our camp fire stories around night time. The park by the lake was very well taken care of as most of the campers there spent the day swimming in the nice gated off swim section at the lake. Overall the time we spent there was well worth it! Anyone looking for a nice friendly getaway camping spot in eastern washington I highly recommend this campground!

Lovely Washington Camping:)

My family and friends go camping here at least three times every summer. The sites are a good size we normally have 3 tents on each site and our tents are big tents. It's not far from home and the host is awesome:) There's a nice swimming area and I hear that the fishing is great although I haven't done it myself. They also have ice and firewood available just in case you forget to bring it.

Beautiful eastern Washington campground

This is a wonderful spot to camp. Me and my family go here at least 3 times a year. We alwaysstay at least 2 night here. It has a beautiful swimming area and boat launch. This year they put in flush toilets and showers. The camp host is amazing. She always comes by with firewood (when we can have them) and she has popsicles for the kids too.

Clean and Comfortable

This campground is pretty basic for a State campground. Pricing is reasonable and sites are evenly spaced. There are many picnic areas to choose from and trails that you can spend your day on. Situated next to the Spokane River, great scenery.
