What Guests Are Saying

Icicle Group Campground offers a wonderful group camping experience with plenty of shaded and open spaces, accommodating large groups comfortably. The nearby swimming hole and clean facilities, including well-stocked porta potties and bear-proof trash cans, enhance the stay. However, there are some concerns, such as full trash bins upon arrival and minor issues with the gate lock and sandy soil when windy. Overall, it's a beautiful area with great fishing, hiking, and rock climbing opportunities, making it highly recommended for future visits.

Two stars because once we got the gate open, our experience was wonderful. This place, however, is managed poorly at best. We reserved the Icicle Creek Group site which is locked up.
This is from the email they sent me:
"Guests must contact the Area Manager by calling (509) 548-3026 to obtain the lock combination to the wagon before arrival."
The number is dead. That's correct. Disconnected number. How can you be a manager of a prime camping spot like this and give out a dead number for the lock combination? This is really really important. I called the number a few days before arrival. I tried calling the reservation phone number but only got a guy in another state that had absolutely no clue how to help me. I found other numbers to call. All of them unmanned and no one answered. Some allowed you to leave a message. I did. No call back. These people absolutely do not want to be gotten ahold of. Furthermore, the email confirmation they sent goes one way so you cannot respond to it or ask questions. On the day of reservation, we just showed up. Sure enough the gate was locked. I drove to the ranger station in town and that is closed. There are phone numbers posted but all went to a service and no one answered on a Sunday. A ranger drove by and she said to go to one of the other campgrounds and find a site manager. I did and he drove to the site and let us in. He was a hero for sure but this agency does not have it together at all. One star or ever negative star for them. Five stars the the site. It was fantastic.
Hope you fix this stupid shit you're doing. It really messes with people's experiences.

The phone number provided in the email you receive prior to your stay says to call the ranger district to find out the code for the wheelbarrow. First, that phone number is disconnected. Second, they no longer ask visitors to haul gear from street level and do not provide a wheelbarrow in order to do so. You instead are allowed to drive down. The email needs to be updated.

Icicle Group is my favorite USFS campsite!!!

Awesome campground, right next to the Wenatchee River and not far from Leavenworth. Picnic tables, fire pit, ample tent and parking area and a clean porta potty. The campsite has access to a beautiful swimming hole that we spent most of our time at. Also lots of scenic hiking opportunities. Yellow Jackets have made nests in the ground in the parking area, so make sure you have what you need to deal with wasps before you show up at camp. we brought two traps and they kind of worked, but from 10am to about 7pm they were all over us. Cooking and eating at camp was difficult during the day. Otherwise a beautiful site.

  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
