Other than the river, there isn't much to do. There is one trail but only 1/4 mile. If you get a site next to the road like we did, it can get super loud. If you're looking for a place just to do nothing and relax, this would be a great spot. There are photos of a waterfall, but we never found it

Lovely campground with large, fairly flat sites. Many have river access. We went mid week just after Memorial Day and it was almost empty. However, my husband found two ticks on him while we were there so make sure to check for them each day.

Our family has been camping here for 20 years. Still love the campsites and the river access, but the campground is in need of routine cleaning and maintenance! We arrived to our campsites well after check-in and it was apparent it had not been cleaned. Trash, cigarette butts filled fire pit, food remnants. This did not help the wasp/yellow jacket infestation. They were really bad this year…actually the worst ever! We literally had to eat our meals in our tents or vehicles. We camped for 4 days and there was never anyone cleaning the campground, campsites as people left, or the vault toilets…which were ABSOLUTELY UNBEARABLE!

Tucked along the Naches River, the Sawmill Flat Campground has some of the best camping sites in the state. A number of them front the river and offer low bank access so you can pull up a chair and eat your breakfast or dangle your feet in the river. They’re well spaced and have ample room for a large tent. Improbably, we found not a single bug there on a mid-August visit.

This was a nice campsite off if the 410 highway. There are spots right next to the river where you can swim or fish. There are outhouses and a water pump. The sites are $18 per night.

Peaceful. Quiet. River next to campground. Reasonable price.

Love this place! Camp hosts are always so helpful, and camping near any river is always the best!

It was gorgeous and keeps cool in the hot weather even though it is very close to Naches and Yakima. Helpful camp host. Clean washrooms. I'll book it again. Pleasant mornings with bird and river sounds. Water pump and trash options are there. - I booked spot 23, and it was very close to 20. It was small and not private, so we requested switching, and the camp host was really friendly and smart; they helped us out. Other campgrounds were really big and nice. You may hear a road sound from some of the roadside campsites, but at the same time, you will hear the River sound. - The River has cold water, and the flow is pretty fast, so perfect for rafting, fishing but not good for tubing or swimming activities. - Someone saw a bear during our stay, it seems elks come, but the bear would be an unusual visitor. It would be important to keep the food safely stored. - There is a burn ban going on. So right now, you can't do any campfires.

Second camping trip for 2021! My family and stayed at Sawmill Flat Campground and we loved it😍. The camp host Scooter and Marilyn were so nice and really just kept to themselves 🧡. The kids had a blast exploring the area. Water was way to fast for them to play in, but there is definitely a lot of exploring you can do. We stayed in campsite 10 and we loved the amount of space we had especially for our dog and the kids to play. Definitely recommend 👌 Also on recreation.gov it said only one vehicle per site but at the campground it says two vehicles can stay just FYI see picture below.
