Jackson Creek Fish Camp

We stayed here one night while passing thru the area. The sites are large and level, and the sites are spaced well so that there's a little elbow room. The only knock while we were here were the bugs - they were horrendous at night. Getting into the rv at night without letting in hundreds of bugs was a real challenge. Also, another camper found a scorpion by their picnic table, so watch out for scorpions.

It’s a nice secluded desert with wide open sky. Nice place for the dogs. A few people came and went throughout the day to walk around a bit but it’s very quiet. It’s just a few miles from where I live so I tried it to practice using solar etc. great cell service but I couldn’t figure out my wi fi ranger. No firepits but we used the standing grill and it was fine.

Eerily peaceful. I was the only one at this campground for the one night I was there. 10 sites total, I think… 2 ADA. Great trail along the river in both directions. No lights, so the night sky was gorgeous!
I took my pop up camper for the annual shakedown. No hookups, so I was able to checkout battery and propane and solar. Facilities we’re super clean. Most traffic I saw were the 3-4 visits by the PUD park vehicle checking the bathrooms.

This campground is very nice. I slept in my RTT overnight and had a great time. It gets quite windy in the area but the views are great and we saw an amazing sunset over the nearby dam. The campground looks like it was built yesterday and is very well maintained. We went on the weekend in the middle of the summer and were the only people at the campground. I would totally recommend this campground!

Spent one night in our travels. Looks very well kept up. Right next to the river and nice view of the hills. There was only four sites occupied. It's a short drive on some wash board gravel road about 1/2 mile in. It needs a little grading, but not real bad if you go slow. We parked our 40" motorhome and toad. plenty of room up to 40' big rigs. No Hookups. No campfires, but gas one is okay. Clean pit bathroom and garbage cans on site. We were there June 28th. Little tiny moths flying everywhere, but harmless. at little park. Ten bucks cash per night in lock box. No Tmobile cell coverage.

This is a small campground on the Columbia River a few miles down-river from the Priest Rapids Dam. It's also maybe 5 miles north of the the Vernita Bridge on the east side of the river. This little campground was very peaceful. We were there in early June, mid-week and there was only one other camper about a 150 yards away. These 10 campsites are about a hundred feet up from the river so we woke up to amazing views of the huge Columbia rolling by and the hills on the other side.

The campground is about a mile down a gravel road from the highway. The gravel road was a very good condition. Actually the whole campground and road seemed brand new. We later heard this campground was built around May of 2017. There was a pit toilet that was the cleanest I have ever seen. There were also trash cans. No ranger station, you register by filling out an envelope, putting cash in it and dropping it in the box.

Btw, we had planned to stay at the Vernita bridge BLM area, but probably because of the extra wet winter the dam was releasing so much water that much of that area was under water.

In the mornings we could hear the orchard workers a mile away but other than that it was very quiet and peaceful! We had 3 bars of US cellular LTE. Also lots of sun for our solar panel!

Also, there is a free dump station and potable water at the Vernita Bridge rest area on Hwy.24 on the West side of the bridge.
