What A Gem!
We really enjoyed this park! It’s immaculate very green and peaceful, a great place to camp and relax. Well maintained, spacious sites are reasonably priced. This park appeals to self-contained RVs, there are no restrooms/showers. There are some nice tent sites and porta-potties. The staff is friendly and happy to go above and beyond to help campers. The entry is gated and we were escorted directly to our site which was a nice touch. It’s obvious that lots of time and care go into this park! Keep up the good work!! Also Ellensburg is only a few miles away and is a delightful town worth a look. Highly recommend this park!

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating No and Hell No!! First of all... It's like getting into and out of Fort Knox. Gates and codes, this park is out in a farming area?? $40 a night without sewer, and they don't even have public bathrooms or showers. All they provide is one of those blue pota-potty. Avoid this place at all costs!!

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 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.

Well maintained campground with decent space between the sites but definitely not a family friendly or pet friendly park. Whatever you do you do not want to do it on their grass. They are very proud of it even if it is no better than any other campground we have been to. When they watered it one evening it cut off the water completely to our site. Pets are not allowed to relieve themselves anywhere but in the pet areas that are surrounded by a chained link fence with barbed wire. No disposal areas or seating in the pet areas either. Some of the camp hosts are friendly but not all should be working with the public. I have never felt the need to leave a bad review before but thought I should this time because we felt so unwelcome in this park. Maintaining a park is great but if your guests feel unwelcome what is the point?

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 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.

Very comfortable. Enjoyed the fact you could walk to the Yakima River and enjoy everything it has to offer. One of the few RV parks I've found with real grass at every site. The staff was very friendly. This is the only real RV Park near Ellensburg. All the others are run down. Everything here seems to be fully updated and new condition. The park was very quiet and peaceful. The 10pm curfew is perfect. Really enjoyed the since of security that was added by the locked entrance gate that only allowed registered guest entry...it just gave us a since that this was a safe environment. Truly look forward to visiting this park again. Best fishing along the Yakima River that you can find.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating We were ‘greeted’ at the gate by an older man who was incredibly rude and YELLING at us for stopping where HE HAD TOLD US to stop. His manner did not improve until my husband went into the’office’. (I guess he just didn’t want to be talking to a WOMAN)
Our space was down wind of the horse stables. Someone was weed-trimming at 6 am. (Quiet time is from 10 pm to 8 am)
The ‘bathrooms’ ARE PORT-A-JOHNS strapped together on a trailer!!!!!
There are NO SHOWERS OR LAUNDRY FACILITY.
The provided ‘grills’ are rusty tire rims with grill grates on them.
There is very low water pressure.
The reason I gave it two stars was because there were nice grass patches by each site and some mature trees toward the front.
Conclusion- it may LOOK nice, BUT DON’T BE FOOLED!

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 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.

Overall Rating Facility Rating Restroom Rating Appeal Rating This is a nice campground that appears to be in development. Sites are nice and roomy, good interior gravel roads and gravel sites. Lots of green grass. As noted by others, this place is well away from the highway so it is quiet except for the train which is about 3/4 of a mile away. It is only about 2 /12 miles from town. There is no restroom or shower but they had two portable toilets. I would definitely stay here for a few days again.

pasture land turned into a campground. No sewer hookups, No office, so I think the host stays in an rv on site. Wouldn't stay here again.

This park is located on a farm and when we were there, they were adding new sites. The park was very clean with great views of the mountains in the evening. We didn't have sewer hookups but that wasn't a problem because we were only there 2 nites. I would recommend this park for an overnight stay. The camp hosts were very helpful and we will be staying here again!
