Big Rig Friendly, Well Maintained Motorcoach friendly with pull through spaces and full hookups. Nice setting and adjacent to the casino. Grass is green and kept short with paved roads. This place is nice AND quiet! There is a security gate to enter/exit. Be sure to get the code beforehand. Pets are welcome, and there are poop stations located on the premises. NOTE: Water pressure is a bit... Big Rig Friendly, Well Maintained Motorcoach friendly with pull through spaces and full hookups. Nice setting and adjacent to the casino.

Great RV park. Just across the street from the boat launch and a park. Casino paid out too. So all in all a great place.

Nice, long pull-throughs that are flat. We had enough room for 2 Harleys, 2 E-bikes, our big truck and Toy Hauler. Go into the casino to check in. We tried the brunch buffet and it was really good. Tons of selections, even a waffle maker! Chelan is a great location for several different MC day rides. Winthrop is one direction and Leavenworth the other. Both a little over an hour.

The campground is extremely nice. The food at the restaurant was really good. The water from the campground faucet is horrible. Do not drink it or even cook with it.

The park was nice and quiet. There were at most four RVs in the park when we got there on a Wednesday. Kinda funny as the check in person wouldn't check us in until 2pm when we got there at 1. Automatic sprinklers water the grass every morning for WAY too long...our site was a virtual lake making it impossible to sit outside on the grass. The side of my truck and travel trailer was also drench... The park was nice and quiet. There were at most four RVs in the park when we got there on a Wednesday.
