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.

A beautiful campground with a private path to the lake. I was the first to wake in the morning and had the lake all to myself with stunning views and quietness! Motors are allowed on this lake, so it gets noisy in the afternoons. Vault toilets were clean. Had a weak
signal on my phone. I would visit again!

I have been camping every year since 1991 at the Kachess campground. My children and I have very much enjoyed our experience there over the years. I was happy when the forest service took over the park again, although Thousand Trails did a great job managing it from a campers perspective. The staff in the past two years has been very friendly and professional. Your employee Pete was amazing two seasons ago. We look forward to camping there again this summer.
