Goat heads everywhere! Had them in our shoes which got tracked to our campers! Got them in our bike tires! Bathrooms / showers were disgusting. Looked like there was feces on shower door. Lady in office knew nothing about the fishing regs and misinformed us. Restaurant closed cause it was after Labor Day. With all the employees running around there you would think they could keep it up better. Rock climbing wall at the playground had a screw missing causing my grandson to fall.

We went down for a family camping trip this last weekend, our first night we stayed in a tent on the waterfront piece by the office. Besides the bats flying into my line while trying to catfish it was a decent evening. The second night we decided to rent a cabin. Very nice spot! My only big complaint here is A. The bridge of GINORMOUS SPIDERS down to the dock. Was insane. I’ve never seen so many spiders in one spot. And B. The office closes at 3 on Sundays and is closed Mondays and tuesdays. Also a side note, they said the people who had the rental cabin cancelled so I purchased it. Later that evening a lady came up to my door and said they were supposed to be renting the cabin. Not sure what happened there but yeah.

This place isn't great, but if you're going out to boat all day it location is convenient. All bathrooms and showers here are gross, and there were so many bugs. The laundry room was nice. The lady who checked us in clearly did not like her job. And the hours for the restaurant and shop were wired, restaurant closes at 2 pm store closes at 5. It also smelt like dead fish the whole time and you have to climb up super stepp stairs/hills to get places.

The surrounding landscape is beautiful. We enjoyed the view. It would appear the marina is the priority, not being a KOA standard campground. Showers were not clean and had not been in some time. We checked them out the day before planning to use them. Waited until noon as the sign said closed for cleaning 10a-12p. Same items in showers that were left in there the day before. Floor needs cleaning as do walls. I've showered in worse, but for a KOA who pride themselves on a certain level of cleanliness, it was disappointing. There is no dump on site. Also a disappointment that we now have to drive with yucky tanks. Staff was nice what interaction we had with them.

We drove in and it felt other worldly-the topography of the Palouse is something else! It felt a little creepy-like we were plopped in the middle of nowhere. However-what a lovely little campground/marina. The staff were so friendly and the view was beautiful. The sites are a little tight, but we just needed for an overnight.

Fabulous campground, beautiful location, easy after-hours check-in, clean restrooms. Access to water. If you have kids and they like trains you will be pleasantly awakened in the night by the passing train. PET FRIENDLY even with a fenced-in off leash play area. Clean. So glad we stayed here. Oh there's a little store and restaurant too but it was closed the one night we were there.

Very clean campsites and restrooms. Booking a few sites online was super easy and we arrived late in the day and they had all our spots ready to go so check in was easy! Very well maintained area and so great that there is a little camp store and restaurant right at the marina. Would love to camp here again!

I feel unwelcome, my disability unacceptable to what is clearly an environment for regulars and family of park employees. Plus, my hitch and step ladder among other things were stolen. The scenery is beautiful, which is why they got a 2.

Great staff, beautiful area and all the basic essentials a person needs for being in the middle of nowhere.

I absolutely loved the deluxe cabin I stayed in! It had everything and more! Joanne and Wally are friendly and very helpful hosts!
