This is a first come first in place. Pick a spot and register at hotel desk. We were glad to find a spot since it was pretty full and getting late at night. The restrooms were OK and relatively clean, but could have been better. There is Wi-Fi in the hotel and so we just took the laptop to the lobby. Sites are decent, but there is a far amount of traffic noise from the nearby highway. The hook-ups in the sites are not well placed and we could not use the sewer connection as it was on the wrong side and way up front. The hotel staff was nice and for an overnight stay while on the road, the park was OK. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Made reservations about 2 weeks before hand, arrived there late after work. The office is located inside the casino which is nothing but a tent. There the gal who was also working in the cafe told us to go pick out a spot then come back and tell her which one and pay at that time. We then go set up and get all settled in and go back to pay. At that time she tells us that the spot we have selected is reserved and we have to move. So in the rain, the wind, and the black of night we move to a different spot and go back and tell her where we are and pay for 3 nights. By this time we are worn out and it is in the middle of the night. The next morning we get to thinking about how much we were charged and find out that she has over charged us for a full night. We go back and talk to several different managers over the course of the next couple of days and are told each time that they do not give refunds, even when they are the ones that make the mistake. Also the first spot that we chose was not taken the whole time we were there so we were told to move for no reason. I believe that spot was the one reserved for us in the first place. The only reason I would stay here again was if someone had a gun to my head! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Not so great RV Park but then most casino camping parks aren't so great. Wish they would put a little more effort into this park. It could be a good park. Bath and showers need work, highway noise is really bad. But at least they have RV spots. We would stay again, just wish it was a little better. By the way, we left with $600 of their dollars! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a small campground next door to a large casino. They don't take reservations. You are told to show up, pick out a site and go to the hotel to pay. My receipt showed 25 but I was charged 30 for the night and told they hadn't updated their computer since the new owners took over. Its a clean campground with some very old travel trailers parked on the perimeters. There is a small very hot laundry room in the campground. It's right on the highway, so there is a bit of road noise. The pool is very very small. The restaurant serves beer and wine and very terrible food. Of the three of us, none of us liked our meals and the server didn't really care when we told her. I'd stay away until you hear they have a new chef. At $15.00 for a porterhouse you would think it would be good enough to bring home for the dog, but not in this case. Ordered two, both medium, one was rare and one was burned. I would not stay here, unless you are a die hard gambler and I'd never ever eat there again. You don't get much bang for your buck at 30 a night. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here on the first day of the Memorial Day weekend. My husband, who can be old and cranky about kids, was worried about the number of children that would be in the park for the holiday weekend. There were certainly children there, but they were extraordinarily well behaved. They can ride their bikes forever in a circular paths of the park. There are three loops, the first two dedicated to RVs and the third set up for tenting. We actually camped in the third loop because the other two were full, but we had a very nice pull through site and there were lots of other RVs in this loop as well as tents, just no hook ups. Our site had a nice view of the river. The sites are spaced perfectly from one another. Lots of trees and a gorgeous walking/biking path along the edge of the river. There is also a great swim beach and for us, a place to throw the toy in the water for our lab. The park is spotless and well groomed. The setting is spectacular. It was really hot the day we went, but the canopy of trees made is cool and welcoming. My only complaint is the front desk is quite up tight. We arrived at 1 PM and official check in time is 2 PM. Our site was empty but they would not let us go down there without signing a waiver about sprinklers damaging our trailer. I wondered, what about the trailers of the people that are already in there? And I mean they were strict about it! We waited in the parking lot with lots of other people whose sites were also empty. It just seemed a little ridiculous to me. Maybe they've had trouble in the past but it seemed overly cautious and regulatory to me. But would I stay here again? OMG, in a heartbeat! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a beautiful park! We were only there for one night, and decided not to stay longer because we had to be on our way and also because it was so hot. The sites are huge, spread out, very grassy, with a lot of big shade trees, and the Lewis and Clark center was fascinating. The rangers were pleasant and friendly and obviously enjoyed their jobs. We camped here in a Motorhome.

RV park was very nice and well kept up. Plenty to do here and great roads to ride. Lots of good restaurants and sights. Fishing was good and river trips were fun. During the busy season it is best to make reservations early. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Campground is right on the river. Roads and pads are paved. Our rig leveled easy enough with 4 Lego style blocks. Park allows fires and our neighbors kindly shared some of their smoke with us. There is an excellent Nature Center located at the entrance. Walking down to it, we saw an amazing assortment of wildlife: a beaver, muskrat, raccoon, ducks, geese, and osprey. There is a paved bike path that parallels the river right into town. The showers work on push buttons rather than knobs. Since we camped on a cold wet day, we skipped the showers since we couldn't tell if the showers were hot or not. We would camp here again, and did. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Open year round. $23.43 for electric/water sites, $26.56 for full hook-ups, but there are not many full service sites there. There is a dump station located right outside the entrance to the park. Nice showers, good electric and water. Spacious park with lots of walking trails. We lost our power at 10:30 pm, and it did not return until 6:30 am the next morning. We asked for a discount, but were told it was an 'act of God' due to winds the previous day, so no discount. I imagine the canyon can get pretty windy a lot of the time. Beautiful area. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

The rate includes Reserve America fees of about three dollars a night. We like this Park and decided to make reservations so we could have full hookups with sewer for only two dollars more per day. There is no more rangers available so any issues are handled thru the campground host or an occasional Sheriff that cruises through the park, by the way there were no problems. The park fills up on the weekends but thins out on late Sunday. Bathrooms were dated but seem to be clean. This is a nice time of year to come, no bugs or critters flying or crawling around, we will come back but only after Labor Day. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice area, but too few sites have sewer hookup. Ample shade, and nice large sites that give you plenty of space. Area is infested with flying bugs and spiders! We were killing both in our rig constantly! Many campers, including the camp host in A-Loop, let their pets run loose! Rules not enforced at all regarding pets being on a leash, and picking up after your pooch! Very, very nice day use area with swim beach and boat launch! Due to the high temperatures and bug problem, wouldn't won't to stay at this park again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The sites have nice lawns and are big. Our 40' motorhome fit just fine. There are many trees for shade. There are non-hookup sites which would be great for tenters. The other two loops have good 50A electric and water and some have sewer. There is a very large dump station area. The bathrooms are clean, large and have nice showers. The hosts and office personnel were very helpful. We chose a river site for an added cost but were very disappointed because there were only peek-through areas of river because of the thick growth of bushes, trees and tall grass. There was no river access from the campsites. There is a huge, very nice beach area within walking distance and a boat launch. This is a boaters paradise and many campers brought them. Definitely do not try to check in before 2:00 because you're not allowed due to watering of the grass at the vacant sites. We got here at 11:00am and had to wait until 2:00! In the meantime, across the river in Clarkson, WA is a super WalMart and Costco which gladly took some of our money! We didn't have reservations for two nights prior to Labor Day weekend but all sites are booked for the weekend. I would expect all weekends are the same for this popular park. Our Verizon air card and phone worked great! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were in town for a baseball tournament and were fortunate enough to get a spot in this park. We had a great back in spot with lots of shade, a large grassy area and a picnic table. The spots are all very roomy but I think the back-ins have more room than the pull through sites. There is a really nice walking trail along the river and a sandy beach for swimming. We were there on a weekend and there were lots of families and children but it was very quiet at night. The lady at the booth where we entered the park and the people at the visitors center where we registered were very friendly and helpful. We received a few television channels with our antenna. We had no internet service as there was no Verizon signal. The rate we paid reflected the on-line reservation fee. We can hardly wait to come back again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very rude and unprofessional staff. We have never been watched over like this ever! Several times during our stay the Nez Perce Sheriffs were in the park dealing with issues the Park Ranger can't seem to handle, and they call this a family friendly park. I would recommend finding a different campground if you want to enjoy camping. We will never stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Sites not very clean. Spider webs and bugs in all restrooms. Not very well maintained. The host was rude. Staff, over all, were rude and not very caring. Park Ranger seem more like just another rude ranger. This park does not merit a visit unless you want to be watched. Over all not very helpful. Manager does not seem to care if you stay or leave. Too much money for what you get, I would never stay in this park again! Move on to another park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We spent Labor Day weekend here and the place was booked solid. Fortunately, the sites are large and laid out in such a way as to make you not feel cramped. A few of the sites have sewer hookup and there is also a large dump station at the entrance to the park. Sites also have 50 amp service, which came in very handy. We weren't able to get rooftop satellite access; lots of trees here but our portable worked. Our Verizon aircard was sketchy as we were on an extended network. We booked on line and the nightly rate reflects the additional fees for doing so. We would recommend this campground and are looking forward to a future stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

When we checked in, no one seemed to know what sites were available. The site we were given was a back in, no problem but I did not want to unhook and that was not option. We called and requested a pull through site which was no issue and we moved to a fairly level site where we did not have to unhook the trailer. The sites are asphalt, grass all around with shade. We had electric and water, a dump station is available. The restrooms were clean as were the showers, just well used as most state parks are. We would stay at the park again.

Only got an 8 because no Wi-Fi. You can go to the Jack O'Conner Center and use their Wi-Fi. Sites are really large and well shaded. There are only 10 full hookups so reserve well in advance if you require. We stayed in Aspen Loop with full hookups and the hosts are great and bundles of firewood are reasonable.

The campground was full, so the park ranger allowed us to park in an equestrian lot for a discounted rate. There were no hookups available, but were able to use the restrooms and showers (they were about a half mile from the lot). We were tired and grateful to have a quiet place to park. This is a nice state park with a good Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center and a nice paved trail that runs from the park into Lewiston. We would return to this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for two nights while visiting friends in the area. The sites are pretty well spaced and the entire campground is fairly shaded (which is important in the Lewiston heat). The sites were level and the grounds were well maintained and clean. We did not use the shower facilities although they were clean. The Park itself centers on the Snake River water activities. Otherwise there is not much to offer in the way of outdoor activities. There is a wonderful visitors center. It is close to town and worked for us because we were visiting friends. We would stay here again if visiting the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is an OK campground. Our site was 30 amp, but the fuse would blow if the line of RVs on the river side had too many things going at once. We had to get the host to reset it several times (he was always very nice about it). My daughter and I went to go hike on the trails down along the river, but some people on horseback told us there were rattlesnakes, so we turned back. Many of the campers there had boats and it looks to be great if you have one. There are no ranger programs, but there is a Lewis and Clark visitor center. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very spacious sites and lots of shade and trees. Wonderful bike path runs for many miles. Swimming beach if you like cold water. We took a jet boat excursion right from the park, very nice. Restrooms could have been cleaner. We had an electric/water only pull through with 50 amp service. All worked well though the pull through would be tight for anything much over 35 feet. The back ins are huge, however. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a beautiful park situated along the Snake river, I would guess that in season it would be very busy. During our visit in early October, even on the weekend it wasn't busy. The spaces are set far apart, so you have the privacy that really only comes with the State park system. I highly recommend this park! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice state park, many sights scattered over at least 50 acres. There is a Lewis and Clark history center at the entrance of the park, cabins for rent, lots of trees, good paved roads and easy pull through sites off the Snake river. River sites are back-ins. Nice beach and picnic area and large play areas. Trails leading up the roadless east side of the Snake river make good hiking and biking. Large boat ramp and marina for boating and fishing access. The park is about 1 mile south of Lewiston with all the stores and services you could want. Very quiet, but summer months are much busier than the fall when we were there.

Located right on the Snake River. It gets Hot in the summer here. Lots of things for the kids to do, but the playground is off aways from the camp sites. Nice swim beach, nice big group shelter available for rent. Small camp cabins also available. Good fishing right from the bank. Maintenence of the grounds was lacking a bit, but not to bad. Grass needed mowing, and by the end of a busy weekend the garbage containers were overflowing. Rangers and workers drove through every hour or so, but seemed to avoid eye contact and didn't stop to answer questions. We would stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
