Yakima River RV Park

Location, location, location!
The only reason this park is on the map is it’s confluence with area rivers, seasonal recreation and hunting grounds, a local rodeo and tired travelers from the nearby Interstate 90 needing somewhere for a safe nights stay.
It’s also the likely reason they can get away with charging $ 42 with full-​hookups (plus they require a minimum of two days if you want a full hookup site). To be fair their only competition in town charges as much or higher.
The setting itself is very pretty, a bucolic scene of horses, cows and a jackass on a working ranch. No, not the owners, a real jackass donkey.
I personally didn’t ‘see’ an owner while there but their presence was known through an extensive list of posted-​rules that any guest would find offensive. An automated or self-​registration was available upon arrival, minimizing the involvement I guess of any management with their guests. It was off-​putting.
NO facilities, another negative. It looks like at onetime they had a shower and or restrooms but that has since been removed. A few porta-​potties were scattered around but seriously they have a Good Sam rating with no facilities to speak of.
The plus + the Internet access was decent for being in the middle of a rural area in eastern Washington. Better than most Internet access along the Oregon-​Washington coastal regions.

My husband and I left Seattle spur of the moment to go camping and arrived late around 6:00. We unpacked and set up our tent and the female owner came over to tell us we could not tent in the RV sites. I told her that we paid the extra money because we wanted a shaded site. She told us they don’t allow tents on the grass so I said oh ok we’ll we can put the tent away and sleep in the back of the truck. She told us that they don’t allow vehicles on the grass. I asked why as the RVs have wheels as well. She told me that the vehicles drive on and off the grass too much. (It was 6pm and we were only planning to stay one night… really??. The topper was that she asked what kind of dogs we had. I told her boxers. She acted as though I was lying to her. She told me that they didn’t allow dangerous breeds! I was so upset. This place advertises as dog friendly. We have the nicest most well behaved dogs. We packed up all our gear and drove all the way home. I wouldn’t recommend anyone stay here with that kind of customer service!
Additionally — if you note their photos on their site show tents in the RV area!

One word: windy.
