Small family owned campground located on the Naches river. We have 3 full hookup RV sites. Each site has river front access that is just 15' from your campsite. Come relax and enjoy the peaceful sound of the river flowing by. Depending on the time of year you will see deer, elk, our neighbor the river otter, a quick glimpse of duck or geese flying just feet above the river or possibly the bald eagle that flies over from time to time. There is not good phone service in the area. You will be given a WIFI password upon booking. Activities in the area: * Nature watching (relaxing) * Hiking * Bumping Lake * Chinook Pass * Public Pool in Naches Restaurants: *WoodShed (4 miles to the East) Great food and beer! *Whistlin Jacks (5.2 miles to the West) Spendy, but great food, live music most weekends!

RV spot up to 40' with hookup for water, septic and power. Located above Wenatchee with open vistas of the Cascades. Nearest neighbor 1/4 mile away. Wenatchee is 12 miles away, 35 miles to the Gorge Amphitheater, 30 miles to Leavenworth and 45 miles to Lake Chelan. This is an farming area with cherry orchards 200 feet from the site. It is busy during cherry harvest (4th of July through end of July) with regular chemical sprays being applied by our neighbors from April through September so if you are sensitive to agricultural chemicals this site is not recommended. Also be advised we're on top of a mountain and can get quite breezy at times. Pets are welcome but should be supervised due to predators (primarily coyotes and various birds of prey). And the chickens, I have a friend raising chickens on the upper part of the property where they mostly just make routine chicken noises but there are some roosters that seem to be nocturnal which some folks can find annoying. We also have varying numbers of snakes as the weather warms up some years they are more prevalent than others (contact me if you are concerned for a snake report). On the bright side we don't have any wasps or mosquitoes. This site is available once the snow melts and the mud dries up, typically mid-March until it begins freezing on a regular basis which varies but not much past mid October. This spot is also available for longer term rentals.
