Amazing views with great amenities. Older parts of the park have shade trees whereas newer area trees are small and growing. Clean, level, with hook ups! Great views from all sides. Hikes, bikes and tours available at Grand Coulee Dam. Highly recommend.

This campground is perfect for almost any summer activity. Swimming , hiking, boating, biking, fishing or even riding electric scooters. I personally enjoy cruising my Segway gt2 in the evening. (Do be careful they really regulate speed) Bring good flashlights if you go hiking up to the rock and beware of black widows and rattlesnakes. However don’t let that discourage you from coming to this beautiful place!

Sitting on the shore of Banks Lake, this place is a good getaway for those looking for outdoor activities. In addition to tent camping, the camp includes bathroom with shower, RV hookups, electricity, boat launch, and many other amenities. There are hiking trails close by. The best part is if you have a boat, the lake is a best spot to catch white fish in addition to access to many different beaches along the lake shores. The downside to this place is that it doesn't have many trees. Bring your own canopy as some campsites do not have any tree at all and it gets very hot in the summer.

I loved this place. Been coming for years. It's not the same anymore. THE CAMP EMPLOYEES TREAT YOU LIKE YOU DON'T MATTER TO THEM!! There were volunteers who start early morning driving around in gas powered atv, so the exhaust is bothersome, and the privacy is minimal. OR lawn mowers at all campsites everyday, leaving a huge mess and dust/pollen everywhere. There was a certain lady that was malicious and vindictive in her actions towards campers. She almost ran over an elderly lady and her dog with a lawn mower.😕My pic says it all, even the poor dog looks scared and confused. I was so boggled by how she was intentionally driving lawn mower dangerously, I had to take pics and video. We were cooking dinner and asked her if she could come back. She immediately had an abysmal attitude. My wife is allergic to cut grass; and she tried to talk to her about it. No communication just "somebody's always doing something" smirked and shook her head, as if we were just a bug to be swiped. She then proceeded to start her lawn mower back up. She did leave our site, but ended her out-to-get-you rage-mow directly in front of us and did a circle in same spot for ten unnecessary minutes at 5:46pm. She ruined our trip! We had such a bad experience that we don't want to go back. Sad

We stayed one night in early September. We were passing through, wish we had more time to spend here. It’s a beautiful, quiet oasis on a relaxing lake. RV sites are full hook up with lots of beautiful green grass between sites. Really nice tent sites available. Nice walking paths. We have our own camper so did not use the restrooms/shower rooms. Some camping spots have more trees/shade than others. Deer & turkeys everywhere!
