Pros: - Lots of trees for shade, but open enough to get lots of sun, too. - Flat, sandy soil, good for tents, lots of room. - Three picnic tables, steel fire pit, bear proof trash cans, 2 clean porta potties are well stocked. - Right by the river (it's loud, so that might be a con for some). - You can drive right up to the tent/table area to unload. - Great fishing/swimming hole nearby. - No trash around, very well kept. - Beautiful area and river!! Cons: - Sandy soil blows around pretty bad if it's windy. Gets in EVERYTHING. - The gate is kinda hard to unlock because the lock has been abused, needs replacement. Also quite certain the code never changes, so other people could easily get in if they've been there before. - Porta potties needed emptying. - Fish in the river are very small, but plentiful. General comments, suggestions: - Bring fire wood, if fires are allowed - make sure you check before you come. - Bring a few wasp traps in mid-late summer - BIG black & white hornets, but not too bad early summer. - Lots of ants, beetles, flying bugs, some mosquitoes, so come prepared. - Bring buckets for water, and a shovel. - Good river for fly fishing, but spinners ok too, just harder. COLD water. - This is bear/cougar country - bring protection. - Lots of good hiking trails and rock climbing spots nearby.

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.
