False advertisement. Period. Old trailers say 55 a night. Newer trailer says 80 a night. I called before I drove all the way up there. No answer. Drove up there and called a different number on the wall. Waited 20 minutes for someone to show up. Starts taking my info down and then tells me it's 150 a night for the newer trailer. What?? He's like yeah we haven't changed that in like 10 years on the website. Isn't that literally false advertisement then? You're a business and admit to not changing the price in the add? Seems illegal. 2 mosquito bites in the 20 minutes we were there. Probably a good thing though. Seems like a drug infested people up all night kinda place like others who actually stayed the night mentioned.

Great private location with secluded lake off of the main road. Large campsites and our host Tray was amazing! Northern lights are visible over the lake, boat rentals available and very clean bathrooms with hot showers. Small ice/snack shop on premises. No fires allowed so bring a gas grill. Highly recommend.

Update All the hotels and motels at Lake Chelan are booked for the weekend and the 4th of July, 2023. I decided to call Kamei Campground and was able to talk to John. As soon as he told me that a trailer was ably available, I booked it with him right away. John then passed me to Rita so she can process my credit card over the phone. She was also wonderful to talk to. The night was so windy and I'm glad I'm able to stay in a nice, clean trailer. The next morning I met John and his father Fred, he was awesome to talk to. He gave me a bit of history on Kamei Campground. The campground currently has two trailers operational and John is working on the third trailer. The Kamei Campground is a bit outdated, so if you have any questions be sure to call the office directly. John would mainly be the one that picks up the phone. Otherwise, you'll get Rita. The place has some fishing supplies such as ice and worms you can buy. Life jackets you can rent. If you rent a trailer for the night or weekend, be sure to bring your pillows, blanket, and your food, and water. The campsite provides the rest; a sleeping bed, a restroom with a sink, and a shower. The sofa, dining table, kitchen sink, stove, and fridge are inside the trailer. It was an awesome experience. Thanks to John and his father Fred for keeping the place clean and operational after all these years. ====== Kamei Resort is one of my best past campgrounds at Wapato Lake. My family and I used to camp here year after year. The staff was friendly, and this place occupies every weekend. As the families moved on, the employees we knew passed away, and we have not been to Kamei Campground & RV Park in a long while. I decided to drop by this weekend and do some fishing on Monday. It's a little quiet, and the office is closed. To launch a boat costs $5.00. By following the honor system, I left the cash with a couple with a bulldog from Portland, Oregon. They said they would give it to JJ. So that was nice of them to help out while the office closed. I’m happy to see folks camping at this resort, and it’s nice to launch the boat from there.

It's peaceful here, boats can be rented cheap and fishing is very popular here. Suprisingly, the bathrooms were clean, but the walls and ceiling were clearly not maintained. The most important thing to bring here is mosquito repellant, all the better if you have traps. Overall, this is a very modest place to camp with few compensations.

I would highly not recommend this camp ground! The camping is located right on the main road very unsafe for smaller children or children on the spectrum with autism! When I arrived there I had planned a four night to camp ground stay. By the first night it was very clear this wasn’t a right fit for our group we had a 1 yr old 3 yr old and my son who is 11 with autism. Besides this fact there was much more that was not right about staying here. We had two dogs swimming the lake as did other campers, we were told not to let our dogs swim they needed to be leashed but yet all the others dogs were ok to be off leash. This was not at all ok! The bathrooms were very unclean!!! The owner of the property decided to mow and dusted us out all our stuff and cars for a very good amount of time, shot dirt and pebbles at our cars! When I went to discuss our situation I was meet with a very rude attitude, totally Unsympathetic owner. I tried to talk to her about the situation and she was very clear that there is no refunds and that she ultimately had no excuse why our dogs were targeted and didn’t care one bit about the mower and the cars and us! As we were packing up they let there 10 or so old kid that lived there go on here four wheeler as fast as she could go past us back and forth creating a unsafe environment for our children!!!!!!! This is by far a bad camping spot!!!! I highly recommend staying away! One night and a horrible day cost me $207 dollars

My friend made reservations for herself and my family here, when we arrived and stayed the night we were unhappy with the campground and decided to we didn't want to stay the entire four days. When she talked to them about the problems with the campsite they did not offer any source of compensation and no refunds were given even though we left after one nights stay. She paid for four days for two campsites. They did not treat her with kindness.

Terrible service and terrible management. Bathrooms were disgusting. Owner mowed and blew dust all over our camp site and vehicles. When we complained they were very rude and would not refund. Definitely would not recommend it. Definitely not worth what they charged.

My husband and I came here every year for a week...either here or at Wapato campground, for years and before me, he came here with his son's. The fishing is great! It was one of my husband's favorite fishing spots...so only a fitting place to say goodbye to him. We rented both trailers and two sites as several family members came too As always fishing was great! Good price for the trailers, but they need some TLC. We had no hot water, and water from bathroom sink backed up into shower, (I called left a message twice) AC filter needed changed two years ago..and they really should build some stairs to make it easier and safer to get inside and out..my friend actually fell, luckily only a bad bruise on her rear. The other trailer, was dusty, dirty.. obviously no one cleaned them prior to our arrival. Other than that campground is well maintained, bathrooms/showers clean and staff friendly They rent boats, motors, batteries Have a selection of fishing gear, ice and snacks available for purchase...and did I mention, the fishing is great!!! Think I did... Well worth the trip and hope to get everyone together again next year. We had a great time!
