Beautiful, clean campsites, calming flow of water stream.
We unexpectedly left a spare set of RV keys when we left the camp to come home but the couple who camped in the site found them and turned them in to the gate keeper who looked use up on the computer and called. We are very thankful we have great people running these camps.

Wish that some of the camp sites were set up better. Water and electric better placed. We Love Cassatot Reefs and have stayed any times. This time staying at site one if you back your camper in your camper door (which is on same side on every camper) is facing away from picnic table and fire pit and water is quite far away. One of the restrooms by the play area the light has been out in since the end of June I know for sure. We have stayed at 4 different sites and sorta know which ones to get to better serve us. But whoever stays may have same issues.

Our stay at Cossatot Reefs, like all our other visits, was great for my soul. Got rained on, but still received a owl serenade. We did see a beaver taking his morning swim, but we missed our usual bald eagle sighting . Still got my batteries charged and left on a level plain.

Excellent as always. Burn ban prevented getting a campfire but the park was clean and the updates being done are looking good.
