Willow Bay RV Resort & Marina

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Sitting on the shore of Lake Spokane in Nine Mile Falls, Willow Bay RV Resort & Marina gives campers direct water access that nearby alternatives don't always deliver. One reviewer made the drive to Lake Spokane Campground first, then turned around after finding it lacked actual lakeside sites. The campground runs year-round and accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with electric and water hookups, though there is no sewer connection or dump station on site.

Sites here are grassy and unmarked, which reviewers note gives the grounds a more open, meadow-like feel rather than a standard grid layout. Cell service is unreliable. The tradeoff is immediate lake access, including a swimming area, and a setting within a greenbelt that has kept the grounds visibly green and well-maintained in terms of landscaping.

The facilities are a recurring sticking point. As Jere W. puts it: "wonderful location on Lake Spokane, disappointing facilities not maintained." Multiple reviews flag the bathrooms and showers as rundown and inconsistently cleaned. Rates run from $30 to $97 per night depending on site type, and some campers have found the non-hookup pricing steep for what the facilities currently offer. Reservations are available online. Those planning a broader trip can find campgrounds near Tumtum or explore options like Nine Mile Resort State Park Campground to compare what the corridor has to offer.

Beautiful setting

We were heading to Lake Spokane Campground (LSC) and saw this site as we drove passed and thought it looked beautiful. We were put off by the reviews so carried onto LSC. When we got to LSC we found that it’s not actually on the lake and pretty much all of the sites do not have lake views, so we turned around and headed back to Willow Bay Site. The man (I think the site manager?) at the office was super friendly and accommodating and let us choose our spot (NB the campsite was very quiet - only 5 other RVs). The site really is beautiful - so green and well-kept, respecting the green belt area. I personally like that the pitches aren’t marked out - it saves the grass and gives a lovely meadowy feel! We were just in a camper so I can’t say anything about the hook-ups/water etc. The toilets and showers were not great - It really could do with renovation - it would be a quick 2 week job in winter to get the facilities up to standard so it’s a shame they haven’t done it yet. I also thought $42 was steep given we didn’t have a hook-up. Overall it’s worth it for the wonderful location.

Pretty, but outdated and rundown

Nice appearance, but not desirable. No sewer connection or place to dump. Spaces not well marked and uneven. Bathroom and showers rundown and not cleaned. Other amenities not taken care of.

Great spot!

Willow bay is great! We camped for the 4th of July and made our reservations online on their website. It was super easy. Great location, 10 min to the grocery store and restaurants if you need them! Easy lake access and a great swimming area. Nice grassy camp spots and decent bathrooms with free showers. No cell service, but who needs it when you’re camping!
