Sorry for the delay in answering your review, but sometimes life just gets in the way. But still, no excuse. To address your review and the short comings of our facility: I am sure that in the past you have had to park and walk into, or at least to an office in order to get checked in. I do apologize for the way the camp host dealt with you, as she should have asked you to walk through the man-gate and come to the office to check in, as most of our customers do.

Sorry for the delay in answering your review, but sometimes life just gets in the way. But still, no excuse. To address your review and the short comings of our facility: I am sure that in the past you have had to park and walk into, or at least to an office in order to get checked in. I do apologize for the way the camp host dealt with you, as she should have asked you to walk through the man-gate and come to the office to check in, as most of our customers do. The reason that you are "asked the same questions" as when you made the reservation, is two fold. To verify who you are, and to make sure that nothing has changed, like, "oh yea, we brought extra people, dogs, vehicles, etc., etc.". It has happened before, therefore the reason. So, OK. Unfortunately, for every rule there is a reason, so we have check-in procedures, escorts, speed bumps, and the unwelcomed but needed list goes on. The unfortunate thing is that you did not enjoy your stay, and for that we, the owners and staff, are truly sorry. My apologies. Owner/manager Yakima River RV Park

My sincerest apologies for the way you were greeted and treated. You were "escorted" to your site like all campers in order to help you get into your site with ease, and to show you where the sewer, electrical, and water connections are, and the proper use of, because some campers are either first timers, or are unfamiliar with the health department requirements for sewer connections. The check-in is such that we know who is in the park and whether they belong. The gate also keeps off-the-road late... Read More

My sincerest apologies for the way you were greeted and treated.

The check-in is such that we know who is in the park and whether they belong. The gate also keeps off-the-road late arrivals from showing up at 2:00am and disturbing our sleeping guests, and the fence keeps the bulls in the pasture and out of the campground. I also am sorry about the sprinklers. I try not to inconvenience our customers, but the green grass is that way for a reason, and parking on it during the hot weather is extremely hard on it. So, yes, I should have asked you nicely to not park on the grass, but after a day of hard work to keep the park looking nice, I indeed had a bad moment, and I do apologize. I also want to thank you for not leaving right away, and staying for your whole two-day reservation. I would like to add that we have never asked anyone not to ride bicycles in the park, but only not to ride through the RV spaces, and to keep it on the road and watch out for traffic. Again, I apologize for my actions and will try not to lose my cool in the future.

We apologize for your less than enjoyable stay at the Yakima River RV Park. The gate was installed to keep unreserved and/or late arrivals from entering the park at all hours of the night and waking our guests. We are sorry for the "codes", but without them the gate is rather useless. The price is actually $35 plus tax, unless there are extra people at $5 each. We do have limited full hookup sites at $42 with a two day minimum. I am sorry that we do not have all the comforts of home, but then... Read More

We do have limited full hookup sites at $42 with a two day minimum. I am sorry that we do not have all the comforts of home, but then again, we are a camp ground. We are in a flood plain, and are not permitted for rest rooms(neither public or for guests), showers, laundry, or the expansive septic system which would be required. to accommodate all the liquid waste that would be generated. We are designed for self-contained RV's, but do supply porta-potties(2+) as a convenience to those who would rather not use their own facilities, and to the few tenters that we reserve for.

We apologize for your inconveniences. We do our best to have a clean and pleasing park for all our guests. It is very difficult to keep the grass green because we only get nine inches of moisture per year including winter snow, and pet circles can be a real problem. We strongly urge our guests to walk their dogs on the roads, and not allow them into other peoples rv spaces, as we know there are times after walking a bit they just need to go, and not all people are forgiving when someone lets their...

We strongly urge our guests to walk their dogs on the roads, and not allow them into other peoples rv spaces, as we know there are times after walking a bit they just need to go, and not all people are forgiving when someone lets their dog relieve themselves in their space. We also need to water in order to keep the grass green, so if you were inconvenienced, I apologize. Management Yakima River RV Park

Thank you for staying in our park. We are glad that you had an enjoyable time, and hope to see you again.

We are sorry that you had such an unpleasant stay in our park. But, just to clear up a few misconceptions about our facility, we do not have a horse stable, although we do have a fenced area for those that travel with them. It is regularly mowed and kept in a sanitary condition although it is only used a couple of times a year. Neither our staff or myself are up at 6 AM. much less working. We strictly enforce our quiet times for the enjoyment of our guests and generally perform no work before... Read More

But, just to clear up a few misconceptions about our facility, we do not have a horse stable, although we do have a fenced area for those that travel with them. It is regularly mowed and kept in a sanitary condition although it is only used a couple of times a year. Neither our staff or myself are up at 6 AM. much less working. We strictly enforce our quiet times for the enjoyment of our guests and generally perform no work before 9:00. Because we are in a flood plane, we are not permitted for showers and restrooms, however we do have portable toilets which are cleaned regularly, and are placed ON THE GROUND for ease of access of all our customers. We do not have grills, but we do have fire pits which are indeed truck rims. I apologize for the low water pressure you experienced, but our system is set to between 40 and 50 psi, so if you were using a pressure reducer, it also reduces the flow. Again, I am sorry for your bad experience, and hope the rest of your trip is a pleasant one.
