Latest Check-Ins
Good spot for a night or two. No shade but pit toilet was clean and well stocked. A little noise from the highway but tolerable.
Report Check-InWashington Department of Fish and Wildlife; it’s a boat launch with vault toilet. With a Discover Pass these can be gold when you want something that’s not a Rest Area and with a good view. However, this one is a bit lumpy. I may have found the only level spot and with that I parked a little catty wompus. But, it’s late and there’s only one other camper here, so an unorthodox park up shouldn’t be a problem. Luckily, I’m a sound sleeper because the noisy interstate highway might be a problem for some. So, not for everyone, but I’m lovin’ it now.
Report Check-Inquiet place off frontage road to i 90; There is no exit at this place. That is why you have to take frontage rd
Report Check-InSemi-level spot. Enough place for quite a few rigs (big or small). Pit toilets on site and a great view of the caliche lakes. Paid the annual pass even though i wont be back cause i didnt want to get a ticket (can be found online)
Report Check-InFishing lake access. No signage against overnight camping. pull through room for big campers. new pit toilet with handicap access. less than half a mile from i-90 so traffic noise. Easy to access in the dark.
Report Check-InA great little gem. We have the place to ourselves along with the coyotes. Yes, the mosquitos come out at night. Do not underestimate! Beautiful little lakes
Report Check-InPublic fishing area along I-90. seems pretty quiet. Traffic noise not to bad. No other cars noted.
Report Check-InWasn’t able to get through the gate but a nice pull off is before so I sat here for the day. Beautiful sunrise spot!
Report Check-InDecent enough spot for the night. Plenty of space for multiple cars.
Report Check-InBe sure to read all the reviews as a discover pass is required to camp here. Ridiculous state this is.
Report Check-InAs other people have said, it's a beautiful spot with great cell signal. Just watch out for the mosquitos. There are none during the day but they swarm immediately at night. Also, if you have tools magneted to the wall of your van, be careful with the fly swatter.
Report Check-InQuite a nice spot actually. Serene with the lake views. I felt very safe solo with a RTT
I’m driving the panamerican highway starting 2022! Insta: @jm__prod hope to see you on the road :)
Report Check-InJust a large gravel lot close to I-90. Easy spot to overnight just off the interstate. I’ve stayed here twice, a bit of road noise but suitable to sleep. AT&T 3 bars LTE.
Report Check-InCompletely empty on our visit - a little road noise but nothing egregious. Beautiful lake view, found some nice wildlife and vegetation around the lake very representative of the area.
Report Check-InGreat convenient place to stop for the night. Clean pit toilet. Amazing sunrise. A little noisy, only a couple hundred yards from I-90.
Report Check-InNo problems camping here! Very pretty location but right by the highway so a bit of noise! You do need a discovery pass, but if you’re a tourist in the area...you’ll need it anyway! Full verizon signal...yipee!
Report Check-InTwo pretty small lakes with lots of mosquitoes after sunset that are a public fishing spot.
The area near the lakes and pit toilet requires a Discover pass. There is a dirt turnout outside the fee area big enough for any RV. Close to lakes big rigs may have trouble.
LTE is decent and it is far enough away from the highway to be mostly quiet.
For eastbounders there is an overlook of the Columbia river a few miles before these lakes at exit 393 that seem to have no restrictions.
Report Check-Init was full up, look like there was a couple that been there for a while. so didn't stay.
Report Check-InNice gravel parking lot with a pit toilet. Easy to get to. Good place for the night.
