3 nights at Waterfront RV camping brownlee

The view was amazing. It was pretty windy while we were there but spot #3 has plenty of little pockets where you can place chairs and relax. Because of the wind we did not launch our boat, but caught lots of catfish and bass from shore. The farm fresh eggs were great. The multi patterned eggs definitely brought back memories for my father who grew up on a farm. The host checked in a few times and helped to address all our questions.

The family were very helpful with great communication. Campsite was as stated and shown in pictures. Recommended all around

Weekend Trip to Waterfront RV camping brownlee

Amazing campsite right on the Snake River with plenty of privacy and the water was perfect for us and our dogs to cool off on a super hot day. Danny and his wife were both very helpful.

1 night at Garden Valley River Access Campsite

The site was gorgeous and right next to the river. Great communication from the host too. The site is close to a road so there was occasional noise from passing cars.

Weekend Trip to Northern Star Pallette Ranch

We absolutely adored our time at the ranch! Michelle and Larry were lovely and showed us to our gorgeous site right by the river. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Tamarack Falls Campground

We had an awesome stay as usual. One of our favorite spots

Fantastic location and host. I don't know why Hipcamp is asking me to leave a review when I have already left one which is very positive and contains images and is already posted!

Weekend Trip to Waterfront RV camping brownlee

AMAZING place to stay! Best campsite we have ever gone to. Great place for swimming, fishing, and rock hunting. Beautiful rocks there. It has a HUGE private beach, and a boat launch for smaller size boats. Friday night and we heard a sound and thought a cow got out from nearby. Turned out 2 mule deer, a doe and fawn, came down to eat and drink at our campsite about 10 yards away from us as we sat around talking by the fire pit. They weren't scared of us at all and stayed probably 20-30 minutes. Then 5 wild turkeys came down the next morning and sat on the beach for 3 hours. We saw numerous big hawks, a golden eagle, and several ducks. Truly a magical experience. Danny our host is an incredible, fun, kind, informative host. We are going to book it again as soon as it gets warmer and take our 2 grandchildren. We have for dachshunds and they loved being outside under the shade trees all day long by where we parked the camper. You have a lot of space where you park your camper, There is a grill to set over a fire pit. It saved us because our camper batteries died and we had no electricity all weekend, our generator has to have enough battery power to start the generator to run the gas line so we couldn't use our gas grill. Can't wait to go again, this time with new batteries!🤣🤣🤣

4 nights at Waterfront RV camping brownlee

This camp spot, set on the Snake River is fantastic. We had easy access to the water which was super fun with the padddleboard. Lonita hosted us because Danny was busy. She took very good care of us, especially considering that we forgot a couple of key items for our trailer. Camping next to the river was peaceful and beautiful. We highly recommend Danny’s camp.

2 nights at Garden Valley River Access Campsite

This is a wonderful site with lots of options and a surprising amount of space! Big flat area effortlessly hosts a giant 5th wheel (or two!) while a shaded upper area was optimal for my camper van or a trailer. Just below that was a long strip at rivers edge (but still a few feet up the bank) ideal for tents and tiring out dogs (or kids!). Even had a picnic table waiting. The site is easily accessed off the road, but that does mean you’ll have cars passing close by (moderate speed, roughly one every minute or two). Didn’t bother me but something to consider if you’re sensitive to that. As another reviewer noted, yes the neighbors play music on a capable set of outside speakers for an hour or two in the afternoon, but it passed eventually and things were quiet most of the time. I’d still come back. Good Starlink connectivity with just a bit of obstructions at the edges that I could probably have avoided if I setup elsewhere.

Danny was very nice and a cool guy! The campsite was perfect with beautiful views, lots of space and drift wood to collet for a fire. Serene sunrises and sunsets. 10/10 recommend

1 night at Twisted Pine Ranch, LLC

Beautiful view on a sweet ranch. Horses, cows, pigs, goats and dogs and cats. Meredith had just gotten back in town from vacay when we arrived, but greeted us and showed us around.

Weekend Trip to 300 feet off Payette river Puma RV

Great, cozy winter getaway! David was a fabulous host who was easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely stay again when we’re in the Cascade area.

1 night at Butterfield Farms

Good place to rest for the night! Reliable power outlet and close to groceries and the main part of town. Some neighbor dogs were outside during the day, which may or may not affect your own pet. Overall would recommend.

Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce tribe often stayed in this area and on the property. In fact this was where his tribe met to discuss and decide to try to go to escape to Canada. This is where that journey started. You can still find arrow heads on the shoreline every so often. I’m ruffly 15 miles north of Huntington oregon. 13 miles of which is dirt road. The property sits at the base of lookout mountain. Really good cell service here with Verizon Full bars. If you decide to come camp make sure your directions take you through Huntington. Google sometimes likes to try to get people to drive over the mountain. Or if your coming from the north it sometimes wants you to go through Richland and then on 34 miles of dirt road. Going Through Huntington onto snake river rd is the easy way to go.
