We had so much fun and the camp personal were extremely helpful. Sites are well shades and bath house were very clean but very hot ( Could use some ventilation). Word of advice coons will come into camp at night so any food stuff must be secured. Yes we plan other trips to this site.

The cossatot is the river I grew up going to as a child every summer with my mom and dad. Now my husband and I are able to take our children there every summer! We love camping here and spending time as a family! We are also loving all the continued campground improvements! Thank you for keeping this beautiful area maintained and available for all of us!!

Coming in from the east, I was a little confused by the 10 miles of dirt road, but GPS did fairly well to lead us to our location. The campground was excellent with plenty of shade to keep our campsite cool. We had a perfect spot right next to the playground for the kids. We will definitely be back!
