Amazing views
Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.
With 300ft of private waterfront river access across 4 acres, River's Edge provides easy access to the best fly fishing in Washington state. There are endless opportunities to relax, fish and enjoy a quiet stretch of the Yakima River. Complete with 4 RV hook-ups offering 30/50 AMP + water service and 4 tent only sites, you can enjoy this slice of unique Washington wonderland with your whole family. Rustic and remote, you will feel instant peace and relaxation as you arrive. Just over an hour east of Seattle sits our beautiful property. It's an easy and beautiful drive on I-90 all the way, then a short drive to the property. Being on the east side of the Cascades, this campground is almost always sunnier than the city, warmer in the summer, and snowier in the winter. But the riverfront is where the true magic is. Fly fishing and bird watching heaven! Many hours have been spent relaxing in, on, or near the river with friends, family, and dogs. It's always changing, always alive, and that's why we love it. If you need supplies, groceries or a restaurant, the town of Ellensburg is just 13 minutes away, and the fun town of Cle Elum/Suncadia resort with its restaurants and the Swiftwater Winery, is about 22 minutes away. Remote yet connected! Our property amenities include a shared, central fire pit & gazebo/table/chairs for all guests to use. There is a flush toilet available on site (however no shower or laundry access). Our site is intentionally rustic and we can't wait to share it with others who love being outdoors with nature. Suggested Packing list: River shoes, bug spray, sun hat, suncreen, camping chairs, binoculars, layers (it can go from chilly to blazing and back again), a good book, board games, s'more supplies, floaties/life jackets, leashes/poop bags.

Site #7 - Tent Camping
The campground was well kept and spacious, and the codes for access worked as expected. The sound of the river was very soothing and we were able to access the river easily enough. There's a nice little eddy in the river where could wade in to our stomach without much fear of getting swept down river.

Lovely!
Loved this spot. Nicely spaced out (which was great since it was a packed weekend) and a beautiful view. Bathroom was clean and a nice bonus! I was prepared for a dirt patch and an unapproachable raging river based on other random reviews, but I disagree. We carefully explored the water with our kids, and felt the grounds were totally fine. Would love to visit again some day! Thank you for sharing this gem with us Adam!
