What Guests Are Saying
Kachess campground offers a beautiful, scenic environment with spacious and private campsites, making it a popular choice for many visitors. Numerous reviews praise the cleanliness of the campground and the friendliness of the staff, along with access to hiking trails and the lake. However, some concerns were raised about sanitation issues in the vault toilets, low lake water levels, and a lack of enforcement of campfire bans, which detracted from the overall experience for some campers.

We stayed at 171, Box Canyon and were mostly pleased with the location. We were close to the bathroom (no showers but there were two toilets and a mirror that were kept clean). We shared a water spigot with our neighbor, which was great for washing dishes and sandy feet. The campground caretaker was close by, a plus in case anything came up, but they had their generator on from 6-9pm each night, which put a damper on the great outdoors experience. Our neighbor across the road never appeared so we had direct access to the beach during our entire visit. The weather was perfect and lake was great for a couple of beginner paddleboarders. If you reserve far enough in advance I recommend reserving a campsite directly on the lake for private beach access. We lucked out being able to have our coffee by the lake each morning.

Do not camp in spot #59,, it is next to the camp host who runs her generator for very long periods. Quite annoying. She also backed out her golf cart in the mornings very early and we woke each morning to BEEP BEEP BEEP!! (Maybe she could think ahead as a courtesy and back her cart in at night.)
Campground is beautiful. We loved the beach and lake.

Kachess is a wonderful park. We were in the Gale Creek loop and were close to the lake- we say the Perseids. It was quiet, and beautiful surroundings, as well as a friendly and welcoming camp host. . I'd definitely come again

We had reserved the 1st night after being told the other consecutive nights were first come only. The camp hosts Jim and Carol then told us this website opened up reservations for the next 2 nights. They told us to move so we did, then they told us we couldn't have 1 camper and 1 trailer in the space. So, we picked up and moved a 3rd time. Terrible experience!

Love this campground. Perfect for bike riding and kayaking.
Can’t laugh past 10pm, but overall a great experience.
