Beautiful riverfront camping located in Puget Island Washington. Enjoy a private campsite on over 400 ft of riverfront access. Across the river from Bradley State Park and a historic bluff. Bring all of your fishing gear, it is known for the best sturgeon fishing (which is catch and release all year round) Free Washington Fishing APP FishWA at the app store on your phone. Enjoy biking around the island and kayaking on the Columbia River and in the sloughs. Boat launch is located just around the corner! Ferry access to Oregon is just a few miles away. 40 river miles from the Coast. Enjoy the quaint town of Cathlamet, 3 miles away with breweries, restaurants, shops, grocery store and the marina. RV parking with power (30 amp hookup) on the road. We require when tent camping that the tents are pitched where the rv parking is, due to rising waters with the tide. We will not be responsible for any refund of stay or damaged property if tents are pitched anywhere other than roadside pullout. Disclaimer: This is a shipping channel and tides vary day to day, hour to hour, so make sure you do your due diligence and check tide tables.Bring your RV and watch the ever changing wildlife and weather. Lots of seals, eagles, hawks, falcons and sturgeon and salmon jumping in the river all day. Enjoy the quiet and private land next to the campfire for a peaceful way to unwind! Endless island road to cruise around on bikes and see the beautiful scenery.

Camping with friends
24 ft travel trailer · Group trip
Camping on this land with our friends was the perfect place to reminisce. We had just one day of really cool, fall windy weather, but the others were good for watching the river traffic, fishing attempts, and just visiting around the campfire. There is what appears to be a power tower that connects across the river which may or may not be a concern to some people.

The spot on the River was absolutely amazing. My husband and I enjoyed watching the variety of boats that went by.

Love this site. Right by the river with a beautiful view. We saw a seal in the river and the kids loved it. This is definitely one of our favorite spots. It can get rather humid and cold at night in late August being next to the river so prepare for that.

Very quiet oasis. Stayed a couple days, just me and my wife. Quiet part of the island, so very few cars drive by. Great scenery and peaceful.

cute little spot!

Nice little spot! The river was gorgeous and we felt like we had a lot of space to stretch out. The fire pit with the cooking grate ended up working great and we had some delicious meals. We'll be back!
