We were glad to see that there was water in the lake, and the weather was just about perfect. The kids had a great time swimming and paddling around the shoreline.

The site and campground were very clean. The bathrooms on Mineral Loop were flushing toilets, which was a nice surprise. No soap in the bathrooms, but they were always well stocked and clean. Our site was very sunny… a bit too hot for us. But I could see many campsites that were more shaded. If a picture of 109 Mineral Loop could be added, that would be helpful for future campers. The walk to the lake was easy, but the beach was very windy. The current and chill made it a little uncomfortable for swimming and playing in, despite the weather being so nice. Overall we had a nice time, though.

One of our new favorite camp site! Would have wanted little more tree cover, but otherwise very nice camp site. Access to the water was a big plus.

We have been camping at Kachess for 40 plus years. Seen a lot of changes.
We enjoy our week long annual family get together in the box canyon camp area.
Kachess have become so popular that it makes getting your favorite camp site a challenge.
I would love to see higher lake levels but our recent low snow packs during the winter doesn’t support this.
Overall, we love camping here. It’s close enough to home in case of emergency and any forgotten items can be picked up in nearby Cle Elem.
It can get a little busy, (noisy) on the weekend.
We prefer the midweek dates the best.
Hope to be back next year.
