This is skeeter country. have a mesh escape tent or large tent or you will spend most of your time in your car. That being said, when the burn ban is off make sure you bring a ton of good firewood. Having the river so close is great and for an Alaskan like me, jumping in said river is a must. *Note to reader: never attempt any river sports in more than a 1" of water without a certified or experien...

Good Luck!

Only 3 campsites available. Primitive w/ a very Small outhouse. Road going in from main road was dry but rutted. That consideration in mind it could be very muddy & slippery, if it's rained. Be prepared to possibly get stuck if muddy! There is NO CELL SERVICE if you run into problems! Also, the road going in from the highway is very narrow.

Also, the road going in from the highway is very narrow. Rendered to 1 Lane w/ tight passing available of oncoming vehicles in some areas.... Go slow & have courtesy for others, especially those larger vehicles. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR RVs or Travel Trailers! Meadow Creek is way too small for RVs & you may end up in the river TRYING to turn around!

Horrible campground. Single bathroom that is quite possibly the most disgusting I’ve ever seen. Water current is extremely strong with sharp rocks not suitable for children. There are great campgrounds in Wenatchee area, but we will never come back here.
