Grassy area with trees on the bank of the Yakima River. Quiet and peaceful. Small campfires are allowed all year in designated spots. There are mosquitos so be prepared for that! During the summer months, the Yakima River is perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, canoeing, float tubes, or just swimming. Catfish and bass are the main fish here and fishing is good most of the time.

Best place to camp
Rogers place was an absolute beautiful location. The friendly warm welcoming and attention to detail on how to get to his place was relieving. He offers a safe quiet place to camp. Along with beautiful built bathrooms onsite and an attached little coffee bar when you wake up, as well as a play set for kiddos. I recommend this to anyone and will return.

Lovely location along the river. Having a nice bathroom available always makes camping better too. Host was super quick in responding to messages and included a video on how to get to the site which was great since we arrived after dark.

Tranquil oasis in town!
My boyfriend and I recently stayed for three nights, and we had nothing but great experiences! We weren’t quite sure what to expect, as we typically camp in secluded spots with no cell phone reception; however, we planned a last minute trip out of town and chose the first nice looking spot on a body of water that seemed easy, serene, and did not require a lot of preparation. We are so glad we found Pirate River, and still feel like we lucked out! The property is within close distance to any sort of amenity one might need while traveling, and along with good cell phone service, the campsite provides fresh water, charging outlets, and a clean, air conditioned restroom with a toilet and sink - which was especially appreciated on days hitting 95 degrees. The river is immediately accessible, rife with fish, a comfortable temperature, and contains a lot of seaweed at that location. It’s perfect for kayaking, floating in a tube, taking a quick, refreshing dip, and - although sometimes frustrating due to the seaweed - fishing. (I caught one!) Although the house is visible and perhaps about a one minute walk from the site, it felt private and unsurveilled. Roger is incredibly generous, accommodating, laid back, helpful, and a pleasure to talk to! We were worried about the lack of privacy at first, but it quickly became apparent that playing music and laughing by the fire late into the night were activities we didn’t have to worry about. It was tranquil and gorgeous. Find out!

Rodger was the most accommodating host at this glorious riverside tent site. Fires are allowed. ‘nuff said.

This is a great campsite by the river with a real bathroom! Also, Roger is an incredible host and made a custom video for me to get to the right site easily. Highly recommend.

We had a great time staying here ! Roger was kind and accommodating, the sites look better than the pictures can give them credit for. It is well maintained and there was plenty of room for our group of 4. The bathrooms are close and were clean and had ac. The dogs had a great time too with plenty of room to roam or snooze in the shade! The water is close and we had fun playing with floaties. Definitely highly recommended and we will be back! My son and his fiancé even want to get married there !
