Wonderful experience

@scotts8955128 · Camped on Nov 1, 2024 at Campsite #14

We arrived after dark and the signage was terrible, we found the next day they were hard to see even in the daylight, faded almost to the point you couldn't read them. Our spot #14 was great, level and next to the river with large trees surrounding the site, the sites are well space with plenty of room. The only real draw back was the lack of cell reception, we have AT&T and we had no signal, so no internet for the TV and we also tried to use the digital antenna and that was useless also. If you are looking for a quite spot unconnected from everything this is a beautiful location.

Quaint, quiet and clean. Very nice park and park attendants.

@BruceS5371230 · Camped on Jul 12, 2024 at Campsite #13

Always good.Sites could use TLC!

@GarryMF8C312A0 · Camped on Jun 7, 2024 at Campsite #16

there are only about 3 sites that can pick up Dish satellite service because of trees. The satellites are south west which is in line with the road. If some of the tops of trees that follow the road were trimmed it would help. What would also help would have WIFI service. Cell service is non existent in the park. We come to the beautiful park every year and enjoy it. The check out time should be noon not 5PM. I do not drive in the afternoon pulling a camper. I always leave about 9:00 or 10:00 before the wind comes up and less traffic. We are senior campers and it is important when we travel.

A great place to camp. Even tho it was stormy our group had a great time. We are planning on coming again next year.

@JannKF771CE66F · Camped on Jun 2, 2024 at Campsite #12

Quiet and beautiful

@AmandaS6104080 · Camped on May 4, 2024 at Campsite #19

This place is beautiful! Nice, friendly staff, very well maintained campsites and the hot showers were a bonus! We're already planning on another trip here!

@LaurenR3836852 · Camped on Apr 5, 2024 at Campsite #17

The campsites were beautiful, the facilities were pristine and the park rangers were so friendly! Will definitely be back!

@StevenC2003509 · Camped on Nov 21, 2023 at Campsite #25

Quiet with a lot of natural beauty.

@CodyJu2B396013 · Camped on Nov 10, 2023 at Campsite #17

It was the perfect site for our motorhome, & added to our experience in the park.

@Dominique79D55 · Camped on Nov 3, 2023 at Campsite #13

I used to frequent this campground as a child and I was happy to come back as an adult. It is a nice campground with well maintained facilities and wonderful views of the river. There is a hiking trail that takes you right up to the dam with a table that you can picnic at. I loved our campsite. We wanted one last nice camp trip before the winter and this place delivers. Cannot wait to come back this upcoming sping.

@RobertS9225788 · Camped on Oct 6, 2023 at Campsite #13

Beautiful, clean campsites, calming flow of water stream.We unexpectedly left a spare set of RV keys when we left the camp to come home but the couple who camped in the site found them and turned them in to the gate keeper who looked use up on the computer and called. We are very thankful we have great people running these camps.

@catherine0B30A · Camped on Sep 21, 2023 at Campsite #1

Wish that some of the camp sites were set up better. Water and electric better placed. We Love Cassatot Reefs and have stayed any times. This time staying at site one if you back your camper in your camper door (which is on same side on every camper) is facing away from picnic table and fire pit and water is quite far away. One of the restrooms by the play area the light has been out in since the end of June I know for sure. We have stayed at 4 different sites and sorta know which ones to get to better serve us. But whoever stays may have same issues.

@dennisr8142257 · Camped on Sep 20, 2023 at Campsite #12

Our stay at Cossatot Reefs, like all our other visits, was great for my soul. Got rained on, but still received a owl serenade. We did see a beaver taking his morning swim, but we missed our usual bald eagle sighting . Still got my batteries charged and left on a level plain.

@RichardS5B81A5 · Camped on Sep 4, 2023 at Campsite #16

Excellent as always. Burn ban prevented getting a campfire but the park was clean and the updates being done are looking good.

@KimberR067CDE3 · Camped on Aug 5, 2023 at Campsite #10

Absolutely loved it only thing I would change is the water hook up on site 10 you have to share with site 11 other then that we had a fabulous time

@TeresaT4A09C05 · Camped on Jul 17, 2023 at Campsite #3

We had so much fun and the camp personal were extremely helpful. Sites are well shades and bath house were very clean but very hot ( Could use some ventilation). Word of advice coons will come into camp at night so any food stuff must be secured. Yes we plan other trips to this site.

@AmberS3F44DDA9 · Camped on Jul 9, 2023 at Campsite #27

The cossatot is the river I grew up going to as a child every summer with my mom and dad. Now my husband and I are able to take our children there every summer! We love camping here and spending time as a family! We are also loving all the continued campground improvements! Thank you for keeping this beautiful area maintained and available for all of us!!

@MickeyT47CC62C · Camped on Jun 30, 2023 at Campsite #11

Well maintained campground.

@JessicaD400413 · Camped on Jun 16, 2023 at Campsite #5

Coming in from the east, I was a little confused by the 10 miles of dirt road, but GPS did fairly well to lead us to our location. The campground was excellent with plenty of shade to keep our campsite cool. We had a perfect spot right next to the playground for the kids. We will definitely be back!

@KennyB22577645 · Camped on Jun 8, 2023 at Campsite #26

Great location and well maintained.

@DonnaW8278919 · Camped on Jun 5, 2023 at Campsite #12

Beautiful, shady, well-kept park! Fishing or playing in the river right below the camp. Bath houses looked fairly new. Trash was picked up daily. We plan to go there again.

@RachelPCD2DC04 · Camped on Jun 5, 2023 at Campsite #11

Beautiful park. And very well kept

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
