31mi from Rockford Bay · 5 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Wildlife abounds on this waterfront Little Spokane River Property! Enjoy the feeling of seclusion, yet you’re only 3 minutes from all the amenities of town. Located in the Wandermere area in North Spokane County, we are just 20 minutes from downtown, and less than 30 minutes to Spokane International Airport.
While hanging out on our Little Spokane River property, you could encounter moose, bald eagles, beavers, minks, ducks, geese, and other water fowl, hummingbirds, bats (in the evening), deer, and a countless variety of birds and other wildlife. On the other hand, you’re just a stone’s throw from Wandermere and Kalispel Golf Courses, movie theaters, restaurants, grocery and shopping. If you’re not in the mood to go out or cook, Uber Eats and the like can deliver whatever your heart desires!
Complementary River-Side amenities are available to all guests of the property on a first come first serve basis include:
- Community Port-a-potty tent
- picnic table and a variety of seating options
- hammock
- floaties for “stationary floating” (connected to anchor in river)
- life jackets
- picnic blankets
- ice chests (ice not available on site)
- Small community propane BBQ grill
Amenities available at additional cost include:
- 2 person kayak rental with pickup downstream
- 3 or 7 speed cruiser bike rentals
- Inflatable paddle board rentals with transport to/from Bear or Loon Lake
I also have one concrete up to 35ft RV Pad with water hookup and basic power. And a large open field area that’s about 1/2 way between the river and house that would be perfect for a large group. I will be posting pics and info soon, but in the mean time, feel free to reach out if interested!

The River Lodge — Your Historic Riverside Urban Adventure Launch
Launch your urban river adventure or step into a serene escape at The River Lodge, a private one-bedroom suite nestled on the banks of the Spokane River, just two miles west of downtown. Built in 1902 by Spokane Police Chief William McKernan who called it "The River Lodge", this historic home offers guests a rare urban oasis that feels remote while being close to every adventure.
Your suite features a private entrance, patio, and hot tub—perfect for unwinding beneath the trees after a day of exploration. Inside, enjoy the elegance of a clawfoot bathtub and shower, along with a functionally simple kitchenette, a cozy living area, and a workspace with a river view that inspires creativity and calm.
Whether you're here to fly fish, kayak, or simply soak in the beauty of the Spokane River Gorge, this location offers unmatched access to the best of Spokane. Walk directly to your private beach or hop onto the Centennial Trail for scenic cycling, running, or a leisurely stroll along the breathtaking gorge to the famous dining and shopping in Kendall Yards.
Ideal for couples, solo travelers, or professionals seeking a peaceful retreat, The River Lodge invites you to relax, reconnect, and experience Spokane at its most tranquil and timeless.
The space offers a boutique hotel experience in a protected serene neighborhood with private access and all the comforts. The bedroom and sitting area are in the same room, next to the adjoining private bath and private mini kitchenette and workspace.
Outdoors, you can enjoy the hot tub, patio and fire pit, and 1/4 acre backyard on your way to the river's edge. Bring your fly rod, SUP, canoe, or raft and launch from here, or launch upstream from Peaceful Valley and exit on your private beach. For mountainbikers, the nearby Centennial Trail connects to countless miles of trails in Riverside State Park.
Whether you're up for adventure or peaceful restoration listening to the flowing waters, The River Lodge is made to be a respite for the soul.
PS: We've always thought it was annoying when VRBO owners ask guests to do a bunch of chores when they're on vacation. We only ask for your respect for the property and your neighbors, but leave the housework to us!

17mi from Rockford Bay · 1 site · Tent, RV
Park your RV, overland rig, pitch a tent, or sleep under the stars next to the Coeur D’ Alene River.
Be advised this is directly next to State Highway 3. If you are a light sleeper, or road noise bothers you, this is not the campsite for you.
At the camp, you can launch your kayaks at the river to go for an adventure down through the Chain Lakes, all eight are accessible by the river adjacent to where you will sleep.
The bird and wildlife watching in this area is world class. Ospreys, hawks, turkeys and other animals commonly hang out in these parts.
You can go for a swim at one of the sandbars, take your dirt bikes or side by sides down Killarney Lake Road to access an extensive network of trails and dirt roads into remote wilderness.
There is no cell service, no water or electrical hookups, or toilet. As beautiful as it is, your experience will not be “glamping” unless you come with all the comforts you personally desire.
You can hunt on the forest service land by 4th of July Pass, fish on the river, or on the Chain Lakes (with the proper permits, of course).
There is a access into the water from camp but it is quite steep. For easy access to the water, use the docks or boat launch at Killarney Lake or Bull Run.
Pets and kids are allowed at your own risk. Be advised the highway and river are hazardous for off-leash animals and rambunctious toddlers.
Please send a message if you have any questions. I am happy to help.

Get ready to unwind on our historical farm that feels a world away but is just a 10-minute drive to downtown! Our cozy Bell Tent glamping site is perched to take full advantage of breathtaking sunsets and moonrises, rolling fields, and wildlife, giving you a front-row seat to nature’s show. A 2-minute drive (or 15 min walk) up the road, you’ll find hiking trails for all skill levels. The same distance down the road is our favorite winery offering tastings and a delightful ambiance for an evening out. They often have live music and food, but they welcome you to bring a charcuterie board of your own.
Upon arrival, you’ll see a sign to pull in to our temporary parking beside the upper garden. A short (250 ft) walk to the site and you can settle in your camp. The site is equipped with a basic outdoor kitchen with a potable sink (fed directly from our healthy well), propane camp stove and basic utensils. We ask that you keep food put away in coolers or plastic container to avoid attracting pests. The outhouse is just 35 feet from the site. Our site is designed with eco-friendliness in mind and the outhouse is equipped with a basic composting toilet. Please use wood shavings after each toilet use and dispose of all non compostable items in the provided garbage can on deck.
In the tent, you’ll find a luxurious and firm queen size bed and compact tables for storing your items. We provide a power bank of electricity for those that need a c-pap (tested and true), or charging devices. Stay warm all night with our propane heater, down comforter and optional heated blanket.
Up for exploring? Just stick to the mowed pathways and enjoy the different settings. A hammock waits in the shade of the cherry plum tree at the bottom of the property. The old homestead site is a nice loop and easy/moderate hike perfect for kids to explore. Guests are welcome to forage fresh berries, herbs, veggies and eggs for their meals during their stay - say hello to our friendly flock of chickens and grab some eggs, just try your best not to let the girls out (It happens).
Whether you’re here for a quiet retreat, an outdoor adventure, or just a quick getaway to soak in the country vibes so close to town, we’re excited to help you make the most of your stay!

My travel dog Thor and I had an exceptionally warm and cozy stop at this beautiful property en route to Golden BC.
The field tent sits on a lovely deck overlooking a beautiful valley. With all the development in Spokane it is amazing that this beautiful semi urban area is so close to the city. We loved watching the sunset, deer in the field and stars at night.
The tent and field kitchen are exceptionally well appointed. The bed is super comfy and the tent feels like a boutique hotel with all the hosts thoughtful touches.
The host are lovely and great communicators.
So glad they are sharing their little piece of Spokane valley paradise with people like me.
We will be back with more time to relax, enjoy the tent, deck and the beautiful valley.

We absolutely loved our stay in Angela’s yurt enjoying the beautiful Glenrose area. Everything we needed was provided and farm fresh eggs were a treat. This stay is especially great for locals to have a little time “away” to slow down and be in nature. I cannot recommend enough - we plan to return for sure!

We enjoyed our stay at Sara's spot. The river was peaceful and she had all the things needed to have a pleasant experience - picnic table, lawn chairs, inner tube floaters and my favorite a glider rocking bench.
When booking the site we thought we could drive in and out of the place to visit relatives in Spokane. Sara's place was perfectly situated to the city however the rough and rutty road to her rv parking spot was not something we wanted to drive on every day. Fortunately we found some different solutions and Sara was very patience and accommodating to our situation. She also communicates well through hip camp texting.

The Belle of Glenrose was a quaint and easy to access place to stay for the night. I enjoyed the warmly decorated inside of the yurt, as well as the deck with views of the valley. It was fun to see the chickens in the yard. Walking on the mowed trails was enjoyable, and having close proximity to the park trail up the road was an added bonus.

We truly enjoyed ourselves at The Bunk House. Stayed two nights. The amenties were on point and made it so easy to last minute plan a mini trip. We only needed food and clothes. We spent most of our days down at the river. The kids loved playing all day in the water. Floaties included. Sara is a very attentive host. Her two dog's were awesome and were great with our small baby dog. Great vibes! We will be back!!

Sara has gone beyond expectations to make her land fun-filled, clean and attractive, and outfitted for a perfect camping experience. A thoughtful communicator and animal lover, Sara took the time necessary to introduce our dogs to each other and to us. They were delightful to be around. As for the river experience, it couldn't have been better...watching people on float-downs while we anchored in a big floatie (which she provided) all afternoon. The covered fire pit was surrounded by really nice chairs and plenty of firewood was nearby. What a great place to find right on the riverbank! We'll be back! Highly recommend!
