Able to spend a considerable amount of time here August and September. Beautiful campground, excellent sites, great hosts, warm water…

Great campground, easy access to the lake, wonderful views. Our side (93) was a pain to back in (20 foot trailer) because of two tree trunks cut off that did not let you go further, so our truck had to be parked on our friends site. Be aware that the place is a mosquito paradise, we were eaten alive there. If it wasn't for the mosquitos, I would definitely go back there. You barely had signal from the Mineral loop, we put our weeboost up to help out.

This is a large campground with several sections and loops. Being only about an hour from Seattle it seems to be quite popular on the weekends with families car camping, hikers, and lake goers. The sites were basic. Most sites seem best suited to tent camping. The parking pads were fairly level, but not super large. Any RV larger than about 25 feet would be iffy. There are no hook-ups but there were water spigots throughout all of the loops. Don't count on much sun for solar because almost every site is in the shade all day. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. Even though the sites are basic, the grounds were extremely well maintained by the camp hosts and forest service. In fact our camp hosts were great. They welcomed us to the campground as soon as we backed in and gave us the rundown on all of the facilities. They also deliver firewood right to your site. We stayed here for the last two nights of the 2021 season and were the last campers to roll out on Monday morning before the gates closed to the public. We were surprised that the campground was closing so early in the season because the weather was still quite nice.

This was our first trip to Kachess Campground. We were there in mid-June 2020. Also, for us oldies the rate is 50% of the published rate so we only paid $10.50/night. The sites are well spaced and clean thanks to the camp host. The lake is beautiful with a beach area that was moderately used; kids and dogs playing in the water plus others just enjoying the sun. The boat ramp I saw appeared easy to maneuver for any size fishing boat. Had no trouble backing our 25 foot TT into the spot; however, be aware that some sites could be tight for larger RV's especially motorhomes. Once school is out you really should have a reservation as the first-come sites fill up fast as this is a very popular campground. We had no problem with cell service.

Kachess Lake Campground is a fantastic spot about five miles off of Interstate 90. The campground is large with several loops and two boat launches. We stayed in site 131 on the Thetis Creek loop. Our was large with a lake view, although the back-in pad was only 33'. We were able to fit our 28' Airstream but had to park our truck sideways to fit in our site. The lake is accessible by a loop trail right from the campsites. There was a great swimming beach 100 yards or less from our site. The site did not have a lot of shade, although most of the Box Canyon loop sites had a nice amount of shade (and larger sites since many are considered double sites). The lake had a fair amount of watercraft including boats and jet skis, however there was plenty of room for those of us who were simply floating or swimming on the startlingly clear lake. We were camping over Labor Day, so Saturday and Sunday we're pretty busy, though Friday and Monday we're both quiet. There were several hikes near the campground which we did not try due to poor air quality from a nearby fire. Many sites are reservable online, but can be tricky with a large rig. There were lots of options for our 28' (we do not have pop outs). Cell phone reception vacillated between 2 bars LTE and 3 bars of 4G at the campsite for ATT. Reception was best down by the lake.

really nice campground. limited cellular single, but my Verizon MIFI worked well with my Netgear MIMO antenna booster. My trouble was 1: weaving around the campground with my size rv (both length and height) and 2: backing the rv into the sites is really tough, because you have to back in at an angle, the road is narrow and the arc for my size vehicle is wide. You need a team and take a lot of time to thread the needle. I first had site 54, which is a 60' pull-thru. However, all of the pull-thru sites contain such a tight arc you can't "pull thru" with a 39' rig and almost all of them curve around a tree. Also, most of the back-in sites are narrow, so your slides end up pushing tree branches when you open them.

Campground and lake are beautiful. But beware, it's PACKED during the summer. Half of the sites are reservable, and the first-come sites fill up pretty much as soon as someone leaves. I was lucky to get a site even on a Sunday afternoon, just as the weekend crowd was leaving. The lake is lovely. But lots of motor boats and jet skies. The day use area, which is adjacent to the campgrounds, is also heavily used. Your basic forest service campground — no hookups. Water spigots are available throughout. I have a 27' travel trailer, and I'd say that I'd only be able to fit in about 1/2 – 2/3 of the sites. A few sites have lake views, a few more are on a creek. Verizon map states no service, but I was able to get a teeny tiny bit of 1X.
