Our property is 56 acres of mixed biomes including multi-generational forests, open meadows, and creek side trails. We are located right off Chandler Road, off of Highway 6. You turn onto Labri road (white sign) and you're on the property after going through a gate. Meander down the road past a red barn and several buildings on your right. Through the second gate, the dispersed camping site offers various sites for camping attached to a main trail that parallels the Dunn creek down to the Chehalis river. They are conveniently accessible off the logging roads which cross with Labri road after you've passed through the second gate. If you take the logging road to the left (look for a blue and white ribbon) you will come up to a tree line where you can park (another blue and white ribbon) and either take the trail to the left or right where you will find ample places to camp. You may camp along the trail or closer to the creek. The most ideal spot is right after you park near the blue and white ribbon if you walk North you'll see a site marked with an orange and white ribbon. This site has easy access to the creek but is still on a hill. There are four RV spots with full onsite hook-up. Two of the RV sites are paved and lit with ground lights and are prioritized for heavier rigs. The other two sites are on grass. We have two RV sites with no hook up (boondocking) but bathroom and shower access.

Great one night stay. It was easy to find, flat area to park. Stream right near by. Not a super picturesque site but worked great for us when visiting Good River area of Oregon.

This campsite is rather large and is perfect for an RV. There is gravel under the grass. Lots of sun but no shade. This site can also get quite windy in the afternoon. This site is on the river and has 110 electricity and water. You have to back in or out.

Weekend Trip to Batwater Station on Columbia River

Beautiful area and great amenities. We only stayed for one quick night, but I would absolutely come back.

Weekend Trip to Columbia River Camping

A beautiful water side view. So fun to see the ships pass. Nice and private with only one spot. Plenty of space for our dogs to play.

This is our second stay. Very beautiful quiet spot by the river. No neighbors. Our Dog was happy to be off-leash. The host is very responsive.

We had a fantastic stay! The location was perfect for the activities we had planned. The directions and arrival instructions were simple and the hosts made us feel right at home. The setting is just beautiful and we frequently saw deer in the meadow that the site overlooks.

Weekend Trip to The Rock On The Columbia

The view is unbeatable. The hwy noise make a little less peaceful, but a great location to hit the spots of Cape Disappointment and Astoria. I found it amusing that is in the presumed location of Lewis and Clark's "Dismal Niche" where there were trapped for several days before completing their journey to the mouth of the Columbia. It was far from dismal for me.

Weekend Trip to Columbia River Camping

Really cool spot! Very private - we stayed on a Saturday and the entire time had maybe 3 cars drive pass by and there’s no other houses nearby or across the river so you truly feel private but safe. Beautiful surroundings and the site itself was spacious. Watching the ships pass by was the best part and I read some complaints about the tower but we thought it was cool and added to the unique vibe of the area. Would most definitely return!

4 nights at Batwater Station on Columbia River

We had a lovely stay on Karin's property! The RV spot sat right on the river with plenty of privacy, but still close to the bathroom/shower and kitchen area. Everyone was very friendly and happy to suggest things to do and see and the property had everything we needed! We loved swimming off of the dock, paddleboarding and watching the wildlife around the property. Very relaxing spot and would definitely come back to stay again.

Weekend Trip to Williams Park campground

Definitely a must camp here! End of September so everyone just had been there for fishing season. Pretty much had the place to ourself. Everyone here is so welcoming and kind, we had full hook ups a few steps away from river and lots of land to have peaceful hikes. There a little house with just a full kitchen, washer and dryer and bathrooms even with a shower. A quick 35min drive from Astoria which we spent one of our days at. The lady assisting the owner was so kind to give my kids a golf cart tour of the dry camping area and were the walking trails are at. They loved it!!! Everything very well managed and cared for here. I do like to be able to drop trash instead of haul it back but not a deal breaker we will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to The Rock On The Columbia

We've driven past the gate so many times on the way to Long Beach, and I always thought it was the perfect little piece of property for a camper or campout. I was right! What a perfect spot, especially if you're into watching boats or fishing. Right on the water, clean spot, power...perfect for vans, tents, small trailers. We have a cabover camper and fit great. You will need to have some driving skills to get situated just right, but completely worth it. The traffic noise wasn't an issue, just cars and trucks. Not anyworse than a NFS road. Aa a matter of fact, we loved it so much, we booked for next weekend too!

Weekend Trip to Slow Boat Farm - Island Camping

I had a wonderful relaxing weekend at Slow Boat Farm. Brad & Lisa were lovely hosts & very responsive. They greeted me when I arrived and guided me to the camp area (I arrived after dark) and stopped by to say goodbye and deliver some treats when I left. The property is beautiful and very peaceful. I was looking for a place to chill out, read a book and hang out with my dog - this was perfect.

Perfection. Mark is a great host and I enjoyed chatting with him. This location is perfect for my needs and I recommend anyone fishing the Columbia to consider camping here. There is more than enough room for a boat to turn around. It's quiet and very accessible. There is also corn hole!

I loved the vibe Galilee and Brett had with their fantastic farm and apple experimentation. The site was clean, easy to find, and welcomed us with flowers and fresh water.

Great location along the river. Boat watching was really fun. We had campfires each day which was awesome. The power tower was much closer to the site than was apparent from the ad but luckily it is mostly blocked by trees. Great that there is both sun and shade at the site. Not much nearby so plan ahead for supplies you will need. Overall a very good experience! Thanks!!

Weekend Trip to Columbia River Camping

Was the best place so far... be prepared for the wind with the changing tides. Was amazing to see all the ships and stern wheel. We had the best thunder and lightning show ever. Caught a few fish. We will be staying again next summer.

Beautiful site! I loved staying there. Absolutely serene to sit beneath the apple tree, watch the cows graze, admire the deer walking by. A perfect place to spend the full moon.
