Believe or not! They are well taken care this camp/park site!
Anthony G — Google review
They're always very kind and knowledgeable here. There's tent camping with showers, bathrooms and potable water. I'm not an RVer but they've got RV sites and was told they're by building "glamping" treehouses so check back! There's also day parking spaces to swim, fish or picnic for the day only. We need to keep our National and State Parks funded for future generations!! Remember for our kids and grandkids 💙
Bettina — Google review
Lots are close with no privacy, there are a few that have privacy. Very quiet except for the very busy passing cars on the main road. Bathroom with showers are nice, they do not supply ANY soap. Bring your own hand soap. They only supply water and a hand blower to dry your hands. Most people were great. Friendly people. Single camping to families to retirement age. I would not bring dogs. It says dog friendly however, it takes more then just making a dog pooping are to meet "Dog Friendly" in my opinion. I think it would be great if they made a lot into a fenced dog play area.

I love the trail around the lake. Great way to exercise the dog and each section has its own unique features.

Such a wonderful place to educate yourself and get the feel of traveling through time! The girls talked about this more then anything else we did on our vacation!!! Every part of this place is breathtaking! The ability to walk through each era and show the kids how it all started was mind blowing and so rewarding! The staff was friendly and it was incredibly priced for what we were able to see and do!

A small museum with a whole lot of stuff. You can tell the locals are extremely proud of their community by the amount of items present at the museum. To do the museum justice expect to spend a couple hours marveling at this collection. Staff was super friendly. Enjoy!

Don't pass through Newport without stopping here! Love the little cabins in back. Clothes for dressing up and shooting selfies. Fire tower. Lots of little hidden surprises. I almost missed the tiny chapel outside the main gift shop building. I have visited multiple times and always enjoy it. They have an archivest available too, if you ate looking for specific info about something or someone in the area.

Farragut State Park

State park
Nature & Parks
Lakefront state park boasts hiking/skiing trails, water sports, disc golf, picnic areas & campsites.
Farragut State Park is a hidden gem! We went for a light hike through some peaceful, scenic trails that were easy to enjoy without being too strenuous. Afterward, we headed into nearby Bayview and grabbed some delicious pizza—perfect post-hike fuel. The highlight of the day was the boat ride on the lake. The weather was perfect, and the views were absolutely stunning. We spent a couple of hours soaking up the sun and admiring the natural beauty. The best part? We actually got to watch an eagle hunting—such an unforgettable moment. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a mix of outdoor adventure and relaxing nature vibes. Can't wait to come back!
Miguel T — Google review
Great State Park with several campgrounds within. Each has clean bathrooms and hot showers. More than 40+ miles of trails for fun hiking and mountain biking. The lake is beautiful for kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing and boating. Love it.
Tami W — Google review
We visited the state park on a Thursday. We arrive around noon so we couldn’t check-in to our campsite. We decided to drive around and see what it had to offer. We were completely surprised at how big the park is. Once 2 o’clock came we headed back to the visitor center and checked in. Our campsite was spacious. Dry camping only, in our loop. There was a bathhouse and toilets centrally located.

Beautiful campground, friendly staff, close to town. Make sure your pets don't get off leash though, as you will get scolded, not very nicely by camp host. All in all, a very family friendly place and beautiful scenery.
Deanna S — Google review
This state park is absolutely gorgeous! The lake is stunning, and the swimming was awesome—such a perfect spot to cool off and enjoy the outdoors. The campgrounds are spacious, clean, and really well-maintained, which made the whole experience even better. Everything about the park feels cared for and inviting. I would highly recommend visiting, and I’ll definitely be coming back!
Rachel B — Google review
HUGE state park. There are a lot of great features! Favorites were: Beaver bay day use area - good swimming bay. You can't paddleboard in the bay itself, but you can launch and explore from there. Food is available for purchase at Wet Willie's, and there are rentals also. We packed in our own boards. Super busy, the parking lot was packed but it was still beautiful! Disc Golf - there are 5 courses to explore! Brig Museum - we spent so much time there and enjoyed it! We loved it and want to come back someday! It's worth noting that you can't hang hammocks from the trees while you're camping, which is a little sad. But the trees are probably better off, I suppose.
Heidi G — Google review
Lots of room at the campsites, quiet, great places to get in the lake, trails for hiking/biking, and not far from Athol if you need groceries or something. We loved our weekend here!

Silverwood Theme Park

Theme park
Water & Amusement Parks
Water Parks
Largest Northwest theme park offers 65+ rides, a water park, casual dining & an on-site RV park.
Exceeded all my expectations. I will break down my experience into categories: **Staff:** The staff was absolutely amazing. They seemed very happy to work there and were incredibly helpful. **Water Park:** The water park featured some fantastic rides. The changing rooms were very clean, and there were plenty of food and drink options, along with ample seating for everyone. I do recommend bringing your own towels, as they do not rent them out, but they are available for purchase. **Roller Coasters:** The park has a variety of coasters, with "Tremors" and the newer "Stunt Pilot" being particularly smooth and exciting. I’ve visited many parks across the country, and these attractions can compete with the top national brands. **Food:** The food was above average for a carnival/theme park setting. While the buffet was somewhat lackluster, it is a good deal if you plan to go back multiple times throughout the day. **Overall Pricing:** Everything, from parking to food, admission, merchandise, and souvenirs, was fairly priced. Since this park isn’t part of a nationwide corporation, you won’t encounter the corporate markup typically found at large parks like Disney or Six Flags. In summary, this was an excellent experience. We visited on July 4 and 5, and even though the crowds were a bit larger on the second day, everything remained manageable. The park was absolutely beautiful, with every detail—from landscaping to music and cleanliness—being spot on. I would definitely recommend this park to any family, and the 6.5-hour drive we made to get there was worth it.
Corey R — Google review
Was great! Spent 2 days in the parks at end of June, not too busy at all. Clean, so many rides and everyone was friendly. The preloaded wristband was good for the teen to get eats as he needed, no need to carry cash with.
Barry H — Google review
Great experience at Silverwood this weekend! Visited from Montana and this amusement part was easily found with navigation. The line in moved quick. $10 parking, longer parking lanes to walk. Checked in at a bag/purse check area. Walked a running under to main road to get to the park. Entering the ticketing area was quick, buy your tickets online (you can even load cash to a wristband). Oh, don’t forget to bring a credit card or debt card with you “verify your online purchase”… The park map was helpful and easy to read. Overall, the park felt safe. Which is important! Plenty of staff and easy to get around. Great kids space with quiet areas for little ones. Consider bringing a change of clothes (socks) just in case you get wet in the raft/log rides. There were some demo coaster chairs at some entrances for trial, because not all body types work with all rides. That was considerate! The lines in general weren’t miserable but be prepared with sunscreen and to practice some patience. Have fun, hope our little review helps!
Nateal T — Google review
September was definitely a perfect time to go to Silverwood. Parking was easy. Short walk through the tunnel to the parks entrance. Tickets cost less when fall starts. Pizza was great while we got to watch the magic show. Lines were practically nonexistent. Got to go on all the rides and some multiple times because the lines were so short. Spent the whole day there from open to close and had a great time. Definitely going back next year.
Bret G — Google review
I visited Silverwood Theme Park for the first time to experience Scarywood—and it was totally awesome. Riding roller coasters in the back, in the dark, was a completely different experience. As a thriller author, I naturally look for thrills. I’m not a full-on adrenaline junkie, but the characters I write definitely live for the rush. We spent more time riding coasters than exploring the haunted houses. People later said the haunted houses were amazing, but the lines were over an hour long. I wasn’t up for that kind of wait. It was also freezing. Even though I’d bundled up, I wish I’d worn fleece pants. Not a ding on the park—just a heads-up. If you go at night in northern Idaho, be prepared for cold. Food options were solid. Parking was a bit of a bottleneck. There were still open spots, but traffic getting in was hectic. Once inside, ride lines averaged about thirty minutes, which felt reasonable. Stunt Pilot was epic. I’d ride it again in a heartbeat. Looking forward to my next visit.
Aaron A — Google review
The pass gets you unlimited rides, access to both the water park and the theme park. On the weekday the lines were reasonable. The weekend and warmer weather brought longer lines. Everything is well maintained and in food operating order. The water slide that takes you uphill is a blast. Definitely recommend during the week for shorter lines. Really fun rollercoasters and train rides.
Justin B — Google review
Everything was beautiful, pleasant and clean, including the parking lot and rest rooms! The staff were polite and respectful. Come on a weekday, not weekend. Our huge family had a wonderful time. If you attend with 15 or more guests, you qualify for a group rate, which needs to be booked ahead of time, & is so worth it! I only have one small complaint: the music was too loud. My family had to shout over each other to have a conversation. Kudos to their lifeguards, I can tell they're highly trained and take their jobs seriously. (I'm a certified lifeguard) Thank you Silverwood, we can't wait to come again next summer.
Amanda J — Google review
Just so so good. What an awesome time had by everyone in our group. We went with a big (200+) group. We got unlimited beverages and an included supper at the ChuckWagon. From the staff to the grounds to the rides, everything was super impressive and well thought out. Loved the coasters- so well designed.

Mt Spokane

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Mountain peak
Nature & Parks
Mt Spokane is a towering mountain peak located in the Inland Northwest, boasting scenic trails and historic ruins that lead to an observation deck with breathtaking views. Regardless of weather conditions, people feel gravitated towards this majestic natural wonder. It provides ample opportunities for biking, hiking, and enjoying the stunning vistas it offers.
Moderate hike up to the top and back down to the parking lot. The Discover pass is required to park at the park. You will take two trails to the top #130 and #140 either trail is clearly marked with blue diamond shaped markers all the way up so it is fairly easy to follow. The All trails app is very handy on all the trails and if you go off the path it will let you know at least on the paid version. I highly recommend this location.
Mr O — Google review
Amazing drive with spectacular views of the mountain ranges! Excellent ski park for all levels from bunny hills to longer ones. The hike in the snow was pretty good. Open access to many walking and hiking trails. The vista house was close at this point of the year so will definitely want to be back for that. Parking wasn’t difficult but imagine it gets crowded during summer.

Seven Stars Alpaca Ranch

Ranch
Sights & Landmarks
This is the only alpaca farm I have ever been to so I don't have anything to compare it to but in my opinion this is an amazing ranch. It's been 7-8 years since I went so I can't remember all the details but I do remember how much fun it was. I think we toured some cabins for rent on the property and maybe some sort of store. She took us on her Gator type vehicle through the woods and over a little stream. We got to feed the animals, and she let the kids herd the animals from one pin to the other. It was fun for the kids and adults. 10/10 recommend
L J — Google review
A beautiful little farm on the outskirts of town. Run by the most amicable owner and maintained to perfection. Plenty to see. The animals are adorable and friendly. My 3 year old, the grandparents and I all had an amazing visit here. Highly recommend! Wish we had brought a little picnic to sit and enjoy the view from the ridgeline. Check to see if this is allowed with day visits!

It was a cold, cloudy & slightly rainy day when we made the trip up to this ranch. Little did we know we were about to meet the most amazing people we have ever met. There is love & respect everywhere you turn. The ranch, land, and the animals are impeccably cared for by Sonia and Andy. While there were so many beautiful things to see, Sonia stopped us at one point so we could listen to the wind blowing through the mountain grasslands-it was awesome. If you are anywhere near Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, you must make the trip here. It's inspiring.

Zoo

Lions, tigers & bears, plus pumas, jaguars & other animals, are on display at this private zoo.
Such a fun little place to see animals! The staff are super friendly and clearly care about the animals. This organization rescues animals that were surrendered, kept illegally, or retired from businesses that didn’t plan for their future. You can even pay a little extra to feed foxes, bears, or tigers—such a cool experience! It’s a great way to support a good cause while getting up close with some amazing animals. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience. I came here with my girlfriend and she was so happy to feed the tigers. We went right in, no line, no paperwork, no nothing. It's all up close, roam as you wish.

Very cute place with a wonderful variety of animals. The staff were all friendly and informative. We liked that the plaques for each animal had their name, as well as the story for how they ended up at the rescue. The option to pay to feed some of the animals was super fun!
Kyler T — Google review
I so wanted to enjoy this place. I do appreciate that they are trying to save the cats but it is depressing. The cages are so very very small. They just have no place to be wild cats. Our group of four didn't stay very long and felt like we all left so sad. I understand they would like to do better but funds are limited and it is expensive to house these animals. We all donated money to help but we won't go back but perhaps will keep donating to them. Their hearts are in the right place.

Cat Tails Zoological park is one of Spokane’s unique Gems. Their kind and knowledgeable staff offer informative tours most days of the week throughout the year. Guests get an up close look at Tigers, Wolves, Bears, Servals, Cougars, Raccoons, and Foxes in their enclosures standing only feet away. The park is extremely safe for the animals, guests, and staff and serves an important role in education and outreach. The park is home to wild animals who have been abandoned, neglected, and voluntarily surrendered after facing a bleak future. At Cat Tails every creature finds love, safety, nurturing, and a Furever home. This is an independently operated zoological park that receives no federal funding. If you’ve never been, or it’s been years since you visited, it’s time to pack up the family and spend an afternoon learning and growing your love for nature at Cat Tails. *Inquire about animal feeding opportunities and annual passes*

McEuen Park

Park
Nature & Parks
City park
Nestled in the heart of downtown Coeur d'Alene, McEuen Park is a vibrant lakeside oasis that offers something for everyone. Spanning over 22 acres, this park features an impressive array of facilities including the largest playground in the city, complete with a colorful splash pad and designated play areas for toddlers and older kids alike. Families can enjoy various activities such as digging in sandboxes, playing musical notes on oversized pipes, or whizzing down slides.
I was blessed and fortunate to visit beautiful McEuen Park nestled in the absolutely Gorgeous town of Coeur D’ Alene, Idaho. I Love the Fresh Mountain Air, the Pine Trees and Evergreen Trees, the Beautiful Mountains, the Many Hiking Trails and the Wilderness Atmosphere. I spent an afternoon Hiking and Ascending to the top off Mount Canfield and enjoyed the Stunning Views. I have to say that if you are Looking for Peace, Tranquility and Natures Wonders and Beauty than Coeur D’ Alene, Idaho is your Destination. It’s truly a Treasure and a Diamond in the Rough hidden in Northern Idaho! It’s truly God’s Country!

Logan R — Google review
A perfect starting point for your Coeur d’Alene downtown walk, or for your kids to burn some serious energy at the well-equipped playground. McEuen Park connects directly to the Mudgy Moose Trail, and sits right at the heart of a downtown that feels very different from most cities - small, peaceful, scenic, and genuinely warm. The lake views are gorgeous, and even during busy seasons, it never feels overcrowded. People are out walking, jogging, biking, and just enjoying the vibe. Everyone we met was friendly. There’s a paid parking lot right next to the park, but locals know the trick - you can often park for free across the street. Just make sure to read the signs and respect time limits. Bonus tip: there’s an entrance to the public library right from inside the park. It’s a great place to cool off or take a break indoors if you’re walking the trail with kids or just want a quiet pause.

Nice park. Tons of parking around the area. By Tubbs Hill, the lake of course, boats and food places. Has younger kids play structures. Basketball hoops. Restrooms. Covered area. Lots of grass area for picnics, frisbee, catch or just laying in the sun reading. Kept up well. Paved perimeter to walk dogs. Although they aren't to be in the grass areas, dog parents don't seem to follow the rules... so watch your feet.

Great park on the waterfront. I like to hike Tubbs Hill. There are always people on the trail so it feels safe! The restrooms are clean and comfortable. There is a small bar/cafe where you can sit waterfront and have a drink.

McEuen Park in Coeur d’Alene is a fantastic, family-friendly spot. It’s clean and beautifully maintained, with a fun splash pad, great playground, and plenty of open green space. The dog park is well-designed with separate areas and agility features, making it perfect for pets too. A wonderful place for all ages to enjoy!

Such a great park and playground! The kids loved it. It was even a dreary rainy day and we still had a blast! One of the best playgrounds we have been on ever. So big and so well designed. We love the fort look to it all too! It let the kids imagination go wild!

What a beautiful park right downtown! Easy access from I-90, large parking lots with designated RV parking as well. I was there on a Sunday and traffic was very light. Nice, clean dog park, although small. Gravel surface, no grass and not really much area for dogs to explore. But room to romp, run and play. There two fenced areas and fresh water stations.

I have come to this park since I was 12 years old and how it has changed over the years. It's a a great park situated on the shores of Lake Coeur D' Alene with lots of open area for picnics, Frisbee, Basketball, Volleyball and of course swimming and all the other lake activities. The artwork (by mostly local artists) that they have added over the years is amazing and of course finding Mudgy and Millie at various locations (a total of 5) along the trail has always been fun for the kids, inspired by a local author. Dogs are welcome and please be mindful of others so this continues to be an option for dog lovers, there are not many pet friendly area's anymore. As always leave it better than you found it and enjoy 😉.

Lots of parking right on the water. There is nice park with a beach with plenty of space, at least in September. We brought our blow up SUP and went out on the lake, the water was super clear. Parking is expensive $3.00 per hr and it says no rv

Absolutely beautiful park and beach!! Restrooms are large and clean and close to both the beach and playground. The playground is amazing, your littles may want to stay and play for quite a while there. There's plenty of room on the sandy shore for everyone. Perfect for floaties and swimming. You may want a light anchor for your floaty as there are times the current brings you back to shore. It is wheelchair accessible from the parking lot and around the cemented pathways throughout the park. I didn't see wheelchair access to the beach however. You would need to walk down a few steps to reach the sand.

Great trails! Challenging but not too difficult and there's plenty of opportunities to explore little trails off the main one. Will be back to explore again!

Tubbs Hill is worth driving over from Spokane for a hike. Depending on which trail you take, there are different levels of terrain difficulty. It is a long trek around without a bathroom. Go before you start your hike.
Jessica M — Google review
Awesome place to start the hike on the east side. Parking in a lot and on the street. Can hike to the quiet beach or complete the loop around Tubbs Hill.
Norrad — Google review
Nice little hiking area. We covered most of the trails in an hour. They seem newly built and could probably use a few more switchbacks on the summit trails but it's definitely not a touch hike overall. The main loop is very easy. We parked in the east lot and had not trouble finding parking at 11am on Friday. Weekends are probably pretty busy though.

Nice neighborhood family-friendly trail park. Great for hiking or running. The trails are well marked. Elevation gain to the summit is manageable and doable for really almost everyone! Some bird watching and lots of deer roaming in the park.

Nice little trail with views of the lake and some swim spots. Busy. Dog friendly. Parked on the opposite side of town so I didn't have to pay.
Patrick D — Google review
It was amazing, but I'm very tired. A few trails for everyone 😁, we chose the loop trail, the whole trail was up or down, but the views were fantastic. We took many photos, nature is beautiful. There were many small and large rocks, bridges, the trail led among conifers but sometimes you walked in the sun without a bit of shade 😁. It was worth it although I had the moment that I could not cope, I would not come 😳. I came, I overcome fatigue 😀

Landmark Spanish-style church (Idaho's oldest building) amid scenic trails & a historic cemetery.
Such a fun historical stop. If you enjoy history and reading, the museum is a great way to spend and hour or two. The staff was friendly, and the visitor center was clean and well kept. Their short film was interesting, and their museum has a lot of artifacts. Make sure you stop here if you're in the area!

Nice, historic church The oldest building in Idaho. It was beautiful and serene. I have passed by Cataldo Mission many times and never passed when it was open I finally got my chance and was happy I did stop and see it. There is a small charge to go on the grounds, but it is used for its upkeep. It was worth it for the history and just how old it was

I highly recommend stopping here if you have an hour or two. There is an awesome, modern visitors center with a multi thousand square foot exhibit on the history of the site. Then you can go check out the inside of the old mission building and several other historic buildings. There is a lot of room to walk around and potentially have a picnic. Overall, it is a very calm place with a lot of history and nature to enjoy.
TJ H — Google review
This place was an interesting but uneventful visit. We watched the 19 Minute Video, which felt like it was filmed and released in the same time frame as the Church was built. From what we gathered they charge you 5$ per family, to enter the house, and the church. We decided not to do that but instead examine it from them from the outside. The museum part of the visitor center was closed, so I can’t say much on that. If your into Native American history, then this might be the stop for you. If not then you’re not missing out on much. The staff at the visitor center were extremely nice and friendly.

With its picturesque surroundings, visitors can indulge in a range of water sports, take seaplane rides or bike on multi-use trails that run along the lake. The downtown area of Coeur d'Alene has plenty of Huckleberry products and excellent dining options to explore.
We spent the 4th of July here and it was beautiful, peaceful, and so relaxing. The fireworks put on by the town over the lake were phenomenal. There is a doggie swim beach for your fur babies to enjoy! The tall pine trees that line the lake are so pretty. The kids had a blast tubing and fishing.

The Liberty Lake Farmer's Market is SO cute! This is a legit farmers market too with folks selling good WA produce at reasonable prices. One could easily go here and get most of your go-to produce, and then some. There were also lots of cool vendors like ceramics, flowers, hand-made jewlery, soaps, oils, and other products, and much more! If it wasn't so far away for us we would definitely be back more frequently!
James W — Google review
Produce, flowers, drinks and food are the main focus of this farmers market. There were some other items but very few. Nicely organized so you can see each booth in loops. Flowers are all priced very well. Good food options to choose from. Only about 2-3 craft or art booths. Lots of parking in an open field.
The E — Google review
Our favorite market local to the Spokane area by far. We come from Spokane Valley, a fifteen minute trip, & it is worth it ten fold. It is also our only weekly market that we attend! The selection of fresh produce, from mushrooms and exotic tomatoes, to every berry or plum imaginable and donut peaches. There are vendors for pickled goods, local and humane beef sources, cider providers. There is always live music and food/drink vendors. Fresh flowers from this market weekly are a must. From one single mother to another- treat yo self. Very family friendly, full of variety and a beautiful place to do your local shopping. 11/10 recommend!

Great stands, great produce. Just great to be outside and around people again. Got a bouquet from Gracie's, lots of produce, gluten-free donut holes, hot sauce, and some primo hard cider. Making lactic acid fermented onions and radishes for garnishes. UPDATE: Pickled onion & radishes were a hit and highly recommended. Re-jarred them in pints, then used the radish brine for quick pickling cucumbers. Amazeballs.

I’m a student here, everything is great, staffs and teachers are awesome and patient. but except the dormitory, no AC mostly, poor ventilation, if you want to ventilate the room you have to make your door wide open and it directly facing the public hallways or areas usually. The first two years as an undergraduate is not allowed to live off campus and portable AC is not allowed for safety purposes so this situation is very unfriendly for students like me.

Manito Park, a 78-acre park opened in 1904, is a stunning outdoor recreation and leisure area in Spokane. The park features various gardens such as rose, lilac, formal, and native plant gardens along with a picturesque pond. With its immaculately tended terrain spanning 90 acres, including an arboretum, conservatory, and botanical gardens named after the Algonquin word "manitou," meaning fundamental life force animating all things.
Have always loved this park. Ample areas to walk throughout. They really did a good job with cleaning up the pond too. You can see the beneficial plants on the bottom. They do wonders to keep the water clear. Great place to take a walk, run, a bike ride, and enjoy the great scenery.
Jakob Z — Google review
“Absolutely Stunning Park – A Must Visit in Spokane!” I can’t say enough good things about Manito Park! The gardens are breathtaking—each one feels like stepping into a different world. The Rose Garden is so vibrant and colorful, the Japanese Garden is incredibly peaceful, and the Duncan Garden looks straight out of Europe with its perfectly designed symmetry. I loved wandering around the walking paths and taking in the beautiful landscaping—everything is so well cared for. The Gaiser Conservatory was also a treat, with unique plants and flowers you don’t see every day. What makes this park extra special is that it’s completely free, making it such a gem for locals and visitors alike. Whether you want to take photos, enjoy a picnic, or just relax and breathe in nature, this is the perfect spot. I’d highly recommend visiting in spring or summer when everything is in full bloom, but honestly, it’s gorgeous year-round. Definitely a 5-star experience! 🌿🌸🌹

Manito Park is pure magic! 😍 Absolutely loved everything — it’s so beautiful, you can’t stop staring at the flowers, trees, and ponds. Total fairytale vibes! The atmosphere is so cozy, like a hug for your soul. The park is perfectly maintained, with spots to chill, snap pics, or just soak in the nature. Amazing for family walks or solo escapes. I’ll be back a million times and recommend it to everyone! Spokane, you nailed it!

An absolutely gorgeous park, lovely enough for a movie set. There is an annual garden, a perennial garden, a conservatory of inside plants that you can look at early in the day when it's open, an Oriental garden that also has limited hours, and a beautiful pond with a nice walking path around it. There are also sports courts, walking trails, and at least one really nice playground.

My first visit to Manito Park was in the Fall of 2004 when my husband and I were newlyweds. After many moves to different states and several years later, life brought us back to where our lives began together in Spokane. We love visiting the many gardens as a family with our sons. My husband and I visited the Rose Garden together a couple years ago in October. The rose blooms were plentiful and spectacular in the middle of October! It was such a peaceful experience. We visited Duncan Gardens on my Birthday in July this year and just recently this past weekend we visited the Japanese Gardens. I find so much joy simply being in nature and there is so much beauty to appreciate in Manito Park. It’s so peaceful and beautiful. I always enjoy seeing people enjoying the park and gardens as well. It’s a great place to be and visit anytime of year! Walking down Manito Boulevard and around the park on the pathways during the Fall with the golden leaves everywhere is amazing! I love it so much and the best part is it’s always free to visit!! Manito Park has always been a beautiful blessing full of joyful memories for my family.

Fantastic park - Spokane is truly lucky to have this place. Multiple gardens to walk through and the care and upkeep effort really shows. Duncan gardens is a grand landscape of flowers, with a conservatory attached. Incredible amount of species inside this building. Rose garden was our favorite- incredible how many different roses can be found here. The Japanese garden was beautiful as well. Hard to believe this is all free- I have paid to enter botanical gardens that don’t come close to this. So many enjoyable walking paths, benches and shade can found throughout the park. There was a cafe as well! Parking could be a problem where you want it- but numerous small lots exist around the park.

Wow! What an awesome park! There are some great playground areas, a small lake and a very beautiful flower garden. There is also a solarium with tropical and dessert plants. There are walking paths and several parking spaces throughout the park to provide ease of use. There are probably several restroom areas but the one we found was attached to the solarium. I would love to revisit in various seasons.

The water is so gross! Literally looks like bottom of a honey bucket. Ducks won't even go in. Way beyond any reasonable threshold. How could anyone let this get so bad? Looks poisonous to fish and anything else. Restrooms closed "out of order", honey bucket outside of bathrooms and it's full.

The japanese gardens is a cute small garden! Located near Manito Park! It's very good for it's size — not too big and not too small. Really nice Koi pond with a bunch of stone gardening design to it. I recommend visiting just for the experience and view. Very beautiful time during Winter. It does close down at a certain time during the year before winter.
Riggs C — Google review
The fish pond is normally better than this, but the water conditions are unsafe for the Koi fish and they are coming up onto the surface of the water to show that they are in survival mode. The water has an oil like film on top of it and algae bubbles which means there is an imbalance in the water. this is not safe for the fish and needs to be talked about more. apparently, the staff don’t know what safe water conditions are for their fish. The park will not last longer if the maintenance stays like this!

Weve finally learned our lesson coming here. Most likely won’t ever be back unless we need a quick pit stop in our way out of town somewhere. After years and years of coming and everytime we say never again…and just keep coming…this time we said nope. Never again. There’s sooo much but this time as we checked in we were “greeted” by a man named David. We had to do the greeting and he acted like we were the biggest inconvenience of his life. He wouldn’t even make eye contact. Acted like he had better things to do..and we were the only ones at the desk. No line, noother people lined up. Nothing. We had to pry information out of him and continually just got smirked out for any questions we had. I finally looked at his name tag and asked if he was having a bad day and he abrubptly said “no”. You could actually tell this was his normal everyday smirky jerky personality. So that’s how you start your vacation…with him. He knows it all but doesn’t want to be kind or give you any info and if you ask he looks at you like your stupid. If you ask where a certain thing is he just says, you’ll find it! And points in the direction to go. Wow! And then you go to the players club and there’s two young girls working who obviously hate there job and hate to have to help you. Again. People are an inconvenience to anyone working there. They act like they are doing you the biggest favor by just showing their face at the desk. Have no time for questions or personality or etiquette. Worst customer service everywhere in the hotel. Seems everyone hates their jobs but still get paid for being rude to people so it works for them. Doesn’t work for us. They need more and newer restaurants. It’s always the same ole same ole deli or red tail restaurant. And one other one that doesn’t ever seem to be open when we’re there. In all the years we’ve been there we have literally won a little something one time! We brought our golf clubs just in case in our road trip we found a great golf course. Well don’t try and play here unless you’re one of the richest. It was over $150-180 a person!!!!!! And Their clothing in the pro shop is highly over priced. Who can afford this place??? It’s dirty and needs their ventilation updated. It’s one of the smokiest casinos we’ve been to. I think the highlight of ours gay and trip was a blueberry pancake we had at the restaurant hat was delicious and as big as the whole plate . Other that it was just a reminder to not come back.

The Spa Tower rooms are well appointed, spacious, and appear to be clean. However, the beds in two rooms were very uncomfortable. Our party of 5 checked in Friday, May 9, and out on Sunday, May 11. Neither of the two nights was restful, which is not what you want before playing golf! The food was pretty good, we had dinner at Chinook and our waiter, Felix, was fantastic. The salmon was overcooked, and the prime rib wasn't 'prime'; other than that, everything else was delicious. This was a splurge for us, a day at the spa for my wife and her friend... a round of golf for my son's birthday, joined by my best friend and his son. In the future, we'll most likely just make it a day trip. For us, the hotel isn't a good value.

I really wanted to like this casino. So much, we came back a second day. The bar staff, are amazing. Hats off to them. Day 1: players card sign up. Not welcoming. We had a younger brunette ( hair in bun) who was thorough in the process but not friendly or welcoming. It was uncomfortable. We played for a few hours and ate at Redtail. Food was OK. Seasonal veggies was a plate of carrots with the salmon. Salmon a little over cooked. Played for a few more hours. Broke even Day 2: Thought by now we would have had some promotion as we entered. None. Played a few hours across 20 or so machines, payouts vs bet low and bonuses felt non-existent. Ate at the pizza place. Surprisingly good. Service was OK from a bunch of younger adults. Put 100.00 into a game and machine ate it. Jen walked past, was friendly and said she would get help. After 30m and looking around for help, went to bar and they sent someone. Received wonderful help after waiting so long. Played for a few more hours, horrible payouts and never received 1 promotion , outside 1.27 bonus play. For having a new director of gaming, do better. Not worth a 30m drive, lose money BUT have zero incentives on rewards is the icing on the cake. I'm okay losing money but have better rewards towards bar, Food, etc. Probably won't return. Edited to add, very clean casino. Bathrooms and floor were well kept.

Wow! What an amazingly beautiful course! Well worth the $179 green fee this, my 292nd course played, resides in my top 10 in scenic beauty and quality of fairways and greens. It is both challenging and fun to play! Chris in the Pro Shop, and Marshals Kirk and Don were most accommodating, friendly and professional. The Pro Shop is well-stocked and restaurant serves a great Club sandwich. I will definitely be back to play this one!

I have played Circling Raven before a couple time. But I forgot how great this course really is. The front 9 is good. But the back 9 is magical. As the course wanders through the trees and up and down the rolling hills, it is one of the most beautiful settings of any coarse. It is so remote that you don’t see or hear anyone. It feels as if you are alone in the wilderness. Now the course is in great shape. There were no dead spots or imperfections. The greens ran fast and true. Probably close to 11.5. The bunkers had light fluffy sand. Some of the best I have hit out of. If you are in the area, it is a must play.

My perspective on Circling Raven will probably be a bit different than most posts, as Kim and I were the 'ride alongs' on the boys golf day! We do this regularly on vacations and have seen many beautiful courses, HECK we live on a golf course with views. ALL staff were very friendly, welcoming, helpful and displayed a sense of humor which was a much appreciated added bonus. Circling Raven itself was a cut above most courses and absolutely breathtaking, every single hole. The way they have married the course to the natural beauty surrounding and throughout the course is exceptional and you never know what you'll see around the next bend or over the next hill. The added beauty of aged wooden bridges, old train tracks, tunnels, blooming crop fields, native wildlife (and on OUR day, those huge fluffy clouds) make this a course we'll be more than happy to crash on any future trips as well. Oh... and least I forget, the boys said the course was in top condition, challenging and made for some hilariously colorful self commentary along the way. Wonderful memories all around.

Excellent layout, fast undulating greens. If you want to eat b4 ur round, show up early. They are in no hurry to get food out at the course restaurant.
Michael T — Google review
Just an awesome experience. Every golf fan needs to experience Circling Raven at least once. Of course, be warned that once you play, you'll be planning your next outing or at least thinking about it. Played here June 5 and conditions were spectacular. Greens are lightning fast. The pin setter needs to be reminded that most of us are tourists and not professionals. I'm guessing that over half the pins were on the edge of the greens with very little room for error. It's probably going to add a few extra strokes to your game, but still, we walked away with a sense of euphoria.

We were there to watch our daughter play in the high school state tournament. The course was beautiful! The variety on the holes was impressive. The course is long, would highly suggest a cart. The carts have nice features like a small cooler, club and ball wash station, and GPS screens you can order from. I really appreciated the course hosting the tournament. It was an incredible opportunity for our daughter. We will definitely plan to go back and play as a family!
Alecia J — Google review
The scope a size of this course is enormous. I love that the course is in front of you. No blind/trick shot necessary. Generous fairways for a short hitter like me. Played from white tees it was less intimidating for a first time player. Good distances between holes. Very fair price.

Wow! All I can say is wow! This course was amazing! The groundskeepers did an OUTSTANDING job! The clubhouse was amazing and Jordan at the front desk of the clubhouse was very helpful! Can’t wait to come back! Seriously haven’t golfed in over 10 years and I had such and amazing time! The carts were pretty awesome, the service ON the course was epic and it was just an all out Amazing opportunity, Connie Jacobs, thank you so much for helping us experience this wonderful time!

Vista point
This scenic, 150-acre natural monument is known for panoramic views from its 3,612-ft. butte.
What a gem of a place to find in the Palouse that yields amazing views of the surrounding area. The views were stunning. It's hard to see the topography of the area when just driving through, but this view does it! The road is a little rough, so take your time driving up. Bring some camp chairs and enjoy lunch with a view. I can imagine that sunrises and sunsets are spectacular.
Tammy S — Google review
This is more like a lookout point rather than a state park, as there is no visitor center, no washroom, no campgrounds, no picnic area... It's a highest spot, so it has best views for the near and far fields. It's also a good place to see the sunset and sunrise. Due to the bad wild fire smoke during our visit, the air was very smoky, hard to see clearly, but we still took lots beautiful pictures. The wind was very strong, may blow out the tripod and make it hard to hand held a DSLR camera stabely. Strongly recommended.
Ken X — Google review
Wow, what can I say? It looks like a big hill in the middle of the Palouse. That is, until you start driving up. I'm not afraid of heights, but the hairpin turns are kinda interesting, especially if you have to pass another car. If you drive out to "the butte" you might want to bring a lunch and a jacket. The view is awesome. There was a chilly breeze the day I took my trek. Cool enough for a sweat shirt. Be prepared. There is an overlook area to take in the grandeur of the Palouse. And, looks are really deceiving. I thought, well "butte" you don't look so intimidating! Wait till you get to the top! But here's the challenge. There are a lot of inconspicuous pot holes throughout the asphalt road to the top. Drive slow! You definitely don't want a flat tire half-way up or torn off oil pan, in the middle of nowhere. Also, I almost forgot, a park pass is needed.

Beautiful views of the surroundings. See a 360 degee view of mountains on the horizon and lots of agricultural fields. Great sunsets, too. The road to the top is very rough in spots. Popular Park, the state needs to work on the road to fill in potholes and fix some rough spots.
Robert B — Google review
Be careful on the spiral winding road up and down as it’s a bit narrow and two-way traffic, but the views from the top are worth it. There’s plenty of parking on two levels. There’s some fun and interesting info boards at the top. 360 degree views. Even during the Smokey time when there were fires from crop burns and excessive heat and dry conditions, the views were expansive.
Jori S — Google review
The drive is quite challenging. Just take it slow and steady and you'll have a treat of breathtaking views. Best to visit before November and after March.

If the campground had some shade I would definitely be giving this spot a 5. Beautiful 1.75 mile hike around the lake. We paid $15 per night for hookups so also inexpensive. What I really enjoyed about the hiking trails was mostly very level and well maintained but also had offshoot littler trails for those interested in a little more challenging hike. Plenty of spots along the way to sit and enjoy the view but also lots of secluded spots perfect for some solitary fishing. Many bridges, was fun.

Debbie O — Google review
Torn. Torn, torn, torn opinion. This market is so beautiful, in a pretty and historic university town right in the middle of the incredibly unique Palouse region--and is very accessible with plenty of area parking. But... It is such a hipster, groovy beauty pageant by 98% of all the patrons and venders. And, no one seems to be happy. Fashionably aloof is the best way to describe the crowd. And there are no bargains here, either, like you find in Saturday markets in Central WA. Just people wanting to ooze, schmooze, and be seen. And what few hot food options they do have are priced accordingly for the euro spenders...

A good street market in the region. Farmers, organization and individual selling different stuff. From plants, vegetables, foods, handicrafts, home decorations, and other things.

My experience with Washington State University has been deeply disappointing. The administration is disorganized and inefficient. They request extensive personal information but handle it with little respect or care. Their website is poorly maintained, some links even direct applicants to the wrong portal, creating significant headaches and delays. On multiple occasions, I was asked to submit duplicate materials, which only reinforced the sense of disorganization. To make matters worse, I was overcharged for tuition and had to navigate loops to get it resolved. Given the high tuition, the quality of education simply does not justify the expense. The combination of administrative chaos, poor communication, and underwhelming academic value makes it a poor investment of both hard-earned money and time.
Ethan V — Google review
First off, I want to start out by saying I am disabled, neurodivergent, part of a minority group, and I have never had issues with any of the staff or faculty because of that. But I have also never harrassed every group that doesn't let me join them. I do not believe I am entitled to whatever I want because of my disabilities or background, and I accept no as an answer. Wait... That's possible? I am writing this part of my review to warn people that his review is PURELY because he is throwing an online tantrum after he has been harassing clubs, fraternities, literally every organization that decides they do not want him a part of their organization. I have been denied jobs because of personal bias at this school but you don't see me slandering the entire school because of a few crappy people. Look McLovin, if you're that butthurt, go to a different school. Not a single person HAS to let you in and the worse you are as a person because of being told no, the less anyone wants to have you in their group! Grow up! Now for my review of this school. I honestly love this place. This has been my home after my life was physically threatened by my stepfather and my family being too scared of him to defend me. I have found light in my life after starting here, I found community, I found home. I have lived in the dorms for almost 2 years now and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am very involved in resident and campus life and plan on staying that way the remainder of my time here. The only thing I urge the school to consider is to really investigate who is teaching their students. There are a lot of professors here who have very high fail rates but are allowed to continue teaching because of research and/or tenure. Those professors are teaching 100 level classes and honestly seem to want to set the students, who are predominantly freshmen who haven't learned the college work life yet, for failure. The point of university is to succeed through the teaching of professors along with your own work, yet a lot of them don't care to teach in a way that allows students to actually learn. Students should not be forced to rely on youtube tutorials or similar in order to understand basic, predegree material, otherwise, why even have professors teaching the class?
Kieran C — Google review
⸻ Title: “WSU Is Failing Its Most Vulnerable Students — And I’m Living Proof” I never wanted to write this. But I have to. Because silence is no longer an option. Washington State University didn’t just fail me — they are actively failing to protect me. As a disabled, neurodivergent, and marginalized student, I have done everything I was supposed to do. I followed the rules. I reported harm. I sought accommodations. I trusted the systems that WSU promised were in place to protect students like me. But instead of safety, I was met with retaliation. Instead of protection, I was cast aside. And now — in one of the most shameful moves a public university can make — WSU is denying me access to even the online campus, the one space where I could continue my education safely, away from the harm I endured. I live with autism, bipolar disorder, anxiety, and other serious conditions. I have documentation. I have medical records. I have trauma. I’m not asking for special treatment. I’m asking for basic human decency, legal accommodations under the ADA and Title IX, and a chance to keep going — to survive, to finish my degree, to reclaim my life. But instead, Washington State University has created every barrier possible to push me out. • They’ve ignored my documented disabilities. • They’ve denied me access to online courses, even when being on campus puts me in real psychological and emotional danger. • They’ve silenced my Title IX concerns. • They’ve enabled systems of discrimination and ableism that are not only immoral, but illegal. I am not just being forgotten — I am being erased. And if WSU can do this to me, they can do it to countless others. Students who are afraid to speak up. Students with invisible disabilities. Students with trauma. Students who need support — not suspicion, not punishment, not bureaucratic cruelty. WSU markets itself as a place of inclusion, safety, and progress. But behind the glossy brochures and empty PR statements, there’s a darker truth: if you don’t fit their mold, if your needs make them uncomfortable, if you challenge the status quo — you’re expendable. To WSU: This is not just a policy failure. This is a moral failing. A legal failing. A humanitarian failing. You are breaking students, not building them. You are traumatizing students, not teaching them. And every day you deny me access to my education — even online — you prove that your promises mean nothing. To any student reading this who feels unheard, unsafe, unseen: You are not alone. I stand with you. And I will keep standing until we are all protected, all accommodated, and all given the dignity and safety we deserve. Washington State University: do better. Because you’re not just failing — you’re actively harming.
Leigh F — Google review
WSU lacks communication, as a first year there was an event called price is right where you would win electronics and more. WSU did not promote this at all and relied on an app that wasn’t promoted. I was told to get an app just for check ins but not to find events. That is really dumb.

Martin Stadium is little better than a glorified high school stadium. The seat numbers are so close that adults can’t really fit into a filled row. The water in the restrooms was not working, so it was kind of hard to wash your hands. But at least it wasn’t snowing. The Stadium is fitting for its team, however: 3rd rate.

We visited for a football game. It was my first time at Martin Stadium. Our seats were okay. We were in the visitors section. The seat numbers were close together. The "seats" seemed small to me. Our seats were the less expensive, aluminum bench style and uncomfortable for long stretches of sitting. I hope we can travel again to this stadium in an another season. I'll bring a blanket for padding next time. You should too.

We love the location and the 1.5 hour drive from home. Even though we didn't eat in the restaurant, the food smelled great. Staff was super friendly and the park was clean. Great place for short bike rides and definitely appreciated the rattlesnake habitat warning sign. Nice short trail to see the dam. Our only complaint for our sites #26 & #27, the sprinklers hit our trailers and water filled the potholes in our parking spots. My husband had to stand in 3 inches of water to hitch up.our trailer to leave. We plan to return with our boat next time. Finally, so fun to watch the barges and cruise lines go by the campground.

This is such a refreshing place to visit. Stay for a day or camp for awhile. The River, kids playing, picnicking, big grassy area for playing games, tossing a Frisbee. There is a marina, and fishing from the shore, if you don't have a boat. There are huge trees for plenty of shade, a play structure for kids, nice bathrooms, a paved walkway to walk along the river, you can see the dam from various places. There are barges and other water craft that you see from time to time on the River. There is a boat launch. A nice convenient store and restaurant. There are cozy cabins along the Snake River. And a few hotel rooms available.

We stayed in a koa dry cabin for one night. Full size on top of queen bunk bed. Inside the cabin was a mini fridge (and freezer compartment) with microwave, enough outlets for electronics, an ac/heat mini-split, and a dining table/bench set for 5 or 6. Everything was in good order. The bathroom is a 3 min walk, clean and with showers. View of the water right outside and we saw 4 deer grazing next to our cabin at night. I definitely recommend. Also, don't take lone hollow road, it's all gravel. Take the almota road, if you are coming from the west.

Beautiful setting, however thats were it stops. Loud neighbors, cigarette smoke everywhere and razors racing up and down the road was our experience. Sites offer zero privacy and back up to the access road so you experience road noise. Sites are also tight so when both sides of the driveway are full, your turning while backing is extremely reduced. Lots of young kids so crying and screaming was our everyday experience. We weren't able to get our site number in advance which was a bit frustrating. We were camping with friends who ended up in a completely different section of the park, while we had an empty site next to us. Several dogs where off leash in two different sections of the park. Garbage at our site was full all day Friday thru Saturday night with bags stacked on the ground. The deer are nice to see but we were told to watch of for rattle snakes. For 70 bucks a day there are better options to choose from. Update: Cornhole party until almost 1230am. Neighbors campsite had beer cans all over Reported the issue to a staff member who absolutely didn't care about the party. Very frustrating experience

She was kind and willing to let me secure my bags in their check in area so that I could go out exploring in the local area. The king room was clean and comfortable. I had dinner in their sports bar, nothing big, just a burger and fries but they were really good. The bartender / server was prompt and friendly. I would also highly recommend the cookies from the snack bar at the other end of the casino. Overall, a pleasant stay!

I can't say enough good things about our experience with Jace as our jet boat tour guide! His deep knowledge of the Snake River and its rich history made the trip truly engaging. Unlike other tours that sped past places of interest, Jace took the time to share fascinating stories and insights, ensuring we truly appreciated the beauty and significance of the area. Beyond his expertise, Jace brought incredible energy to the tour—he was positive, full of jokes, and genuinely courteous to everyone onboard. He and his deckhand made sure every guest felt welcomed and taken care of, creating a fun and relaxed atmosphere for all. If you're looking for an exciting, informative, and well-run tour, I highly recommend booking!

We had a fantastic experience on the full-day mail boat tour with Beamers. Captain Jace and deckhand Jeff were friendly, informative, and clearly passionate about the canyon. We saw tons of wildlife—eagles, deer, big horn sheep, blue herons—and learned so much about the canyon’s history. The boat was comfortable even on a hot day, with shade and cold water provided throughout. We stopped three times to swim and explore, plus got a surprise bonus stop at a beautiful sandy beach—just in time for a quick, dramatic rainstorm that made the day even more memorable. Lunch was provided at our second stop of the day. I was worried it might feel like a long day, but none of us wanted it to end. Highly recommend this tour.

Fabulous adventure. Captain was skilled at maneuvering the boat over the rapids. We saw a bear, over 12 bighorn sheep including 5 babies less than two weeks old, an eagle, mule deer, white tailed deer, and mergansers. Stops every hour and a half to visit historic sites with flush toilets. Truly, N awesome adventure.
Marcia A — Google review
Beamer's is the best! Our captain, Jace Halley and deck hand Jeff Tillea were fantastic. Both were very friendly, personable, and had a great sense of humor. They have a wealth of knowledge about boating, the river, and Hells Canyon. Jace shared the history of the canyon, and both of them pointed out all the bighorn sheep, deer, bald eagle, and even a moose swimming across the river! The people at all the stops were friendly and welcoming. The boat was comfortable. There were granola bars and coffee at the first stop, then a couple of mail stops, then we had sack lunches at Copper Creek Lodge. Lunch was fresh turkey sandwiches, chips, cookie, and an assortment of sodas. The weather surprised us with several downpours along the way and lightning in the distance. There's no dock at Kirkwood Ranch, so you have to exit the boat from the bow. Due to the rain and the slick rocks, the captain decided to forego Kirkwood and have us tour Cache Creek instead. By the time we got back down the river, the rain had stopped. Cache Creek was stunning! The orchards are beautiful, and the small visitor center covered a lot of history from the canyon. We could not have been happier with our experience! These guys seriously know what they're doing, and they do it well!

Jet boat captain was Jas who was great. Learned a lot. Even he was surprised how much wildlife was seen. 4 bald eagles, 1 osprey, turkeys and upwards of 100 Rocky Mountain Big Horn Sheep in many different spots. The lunch spot was quite nice. I think the full day trip would be too much as the half day trip was from 9am to 2pm. Great day and so glad we did it. Good for ages 9 to 90 and no, you won't get wet!

We went on the mail run jet boat tour and had an absolutely fantastic experience! The company and everyone involved were top-notch from start to finish. We left on a cool Wednesday morning with just eight of us on board, which made for a more personal and relaxed trip. Our captain and first mate were both outstanding—professional, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. Every Beamer employee we interacted with was friendly, helpful, and genuinely seemed to love what they do. The scenery along the way was beautiful, with just the right mix of peaceful river stretches, dramatic landscapes, and a touch of wildlife. The weather was spectacular, making the whole experience even better. This trip delivered exactly what was promised and more. We loved every minute of it and can’t recommend this tour—and this company—highly enough!

This was really an exciting and memorable trip. We did the full day tour. Our Captain Jase was excellent. He gave us a thorough safety brief and then we were off. Jase was extremely knowledgeable about the geography, geology, and history of the region. The 1st mate, Jeff, was very kind and helpful. He checked on us throughout the trip. He made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We made several stops. The first was for some drinks and snacks. They had a cute gift shop. The owners were there and were able to offer us more information and history. She was able to look at old family photos that myself and another lady had bought on the trip. She gave additional information. We also stopped for a generous lunch (we couldn’t eat it all). I could just go on and on. We were very happy with the entire experience!

What an amazing, entertaining, and truly life-affirming trip this was. My friend and I had an absolute BLAST! We initially signed up for the 6-hour tour, and for reasons beyond our control, ended up on the 8-hour tour, which we wondered if it would be too long, since we were flying out the next day. NOPE! We would've stayed on longer if we could have. Incredible hosts and the views were beyond description. We will be back, Beamers! Thank you for an amazing, life-changing experience!

Snake Dancer Excursions is the 3rd tour company we have tried in the valley, and by far, THE BEST! Our captain, Clayton, was very skillful in the most challenging waters and polite and professional to all other river vessels. We had a great experience! Will definitely go again when people visit us from out of the area! A must do!

Always a great time! Clayton piloted us this trip and did a great job of pointing out the history/animals/geography and Boyd did a fantastic job, as usual, as the deckhand. We even seen a moose and Clayton said it was only the 2nd time he seen one in Hell's Canyon. The fried chicken/pasta salad/chips/cookies was awesome. Be sure to reserve your slot for when Boyd turns 19 in 4 years and can finally pilot!

We were a group of 6 on this jet boat. We had the time of our lives! Our captain was awesome! A couple of us got a little wet. The 4 people at the back of the boat got soaked. The rapids were fun. I would highly recommend this to everyone. We had a few elderly folks on the boat, they had a great time as well.

So much fun! Tyler and Boyd were great guides! We did the half day tour. Awesome lunch and cookies! The lunch spot was also great with fresh fruit trees. We enjoyed apricots and apples from the trees. The swim stop on the way back was refreshing! I would highly recommend doing this trip!

We did the 11 hour tour all the way to the Hells Canyon Dam in July. It was the perfect time for some good rapids that were not too rough, but enough for an adventure. Our party of 8 had a wide range of ages from 20 to 82 years old. Everyone had a great time and some want to come back again next year. Our captain is the owner of the company and an amazing host! He gave some great details of the land, wildlife and history! Whenever there was wildlife to be seen he made sure we saw it. We felt safe and throughly entertained. Lunch was perfect with cold fried chicken, pasta salad, veggies, chips, and baked beans. Also, homemade cookies that were delicious! Be prepared to get wet with appropriate shoes and clothes! Going in July, it was 100+ degrees in the canyon, so getting wet felt great!!

Wonderful experience! Saw a Bear, Eagles, Heron, and Mountain Goats. We really enjoyed Grayson the driver. He was so funny and knowledgeable! Only things we would recommend is the chicken for lunch was cold from the fridge, and then we checked in in the morning. It was a little confusing on where we should go to find the office. We did get a call from them trying to have them help us figure out where they were. A billboard sign pointing toward where they are located would’ve been helpful once you get to the Marina. Overall 5 stars! Thanks for the memories!!

We did this tour as a family over Memorial Day and it was great! Boat ride is very smooth considering the water you are in. We stayed dry, due to side covers and roof. We also saw a ton more wildlife than expected. LOTS of big horn sheep, pelicans, and even a sturgeon! I highly recommend if you have any out of town guests and want the Hells Canyon experience, this is the way to do it!

Hells Gate State Park

State park
Nature & Parks
Park
Hells Gate State Park, located on the south side of Lewiston along the Snake River, offers a stunning 960-acre natural setting for camping, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and kayaking. The park's mostly level terrain was shaped by Ice Age floods and holds historical significance as a former village site for the Nez Perce people. Visitors can explore geological features and North America's deepest canyons through activities like jet-boating.
We love this close to home campground. This time we were in the cottonwood loop with no services. There is however a shower house and restrooms. There are 2 shower stalls, however one of the showers wasn't working (they did get it fixed just before we left). The playground is a good size and right next to the beach. It's a short walk from the camps to the beach regardless of which loop you stay in. We had deer come into our camp 3 times while there, saw bunnies and a turkey!

This was a great park. There was plenty of space for everyone, and the sites each had spacious grassy areas. There are lots of beautiful deciduous trees and plenty of trails for hiking. We enjoyed the waterfront trail and the scenic elevated trails accessible from the park. We walked down to the interpretive center and enjoyed the 30-minute film about Lewis and Clark. They even let us bring our dog in on a leash. They also had little doggy treats for her. There was a very nice discuss golf course for those who enjoy the sport. We had full hookups for our RV and utilized one of the pull through sites. The only complaint with this park is that it is on the beach Snake River, but there are no sites that have a good view of the river! There is so much brush that you Woodbridge even know you were on the river from your RV. Also, they are all back in only sites. So even if we got one of the sites that would provide a peek from the height of our front window, it wasn't allowed. It's a beautiful park, and we would definitely go there again if in the area. It's just interesting that it wasn't laid out to enjoy the beauty of the river from THE RV.

The state park is beautiful and has a lot to offer. Sites are spacious and have electric and water. There’s a bathhouse for tent campers. The beach area is beautiful! Dogs are not allowed on beach

We hiked to the basalt rock formation and that was a beautiful and fantastic experience. For some strange reason it is not marked on the State Park map and it was unnecessarily difficult to find the way. The hike was 7 km and took us about 2 hours.

What a great park! We camped here, unfortunately only for one night, but it’s worth a visit for sure. It wasn’t super packed so that was nice. There is a nice, paved walking path along the river. The only downside was the highway across the river. The traffic noise was pretty loud and while it slowed at night, it seemed like there were loud cars and trucks around the clock.

Clean, well maintained campground on the river. Lots of wildlife and trails to walk. River access at the park as well. Would stay again.

This is a beautiful state park with nice campsites near the Snake River. We had water and electric hookups at our site. We loved the paved path for a bike ride (or walk), which you can take all the way into town. Restrooms were clean, but old, with free showers. We liked the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center- cool relief map and the movie was good, too. They water the grass so it is still green even on hot days. Lots of trees for shade in the campground.

When I arrived after dark, my rv spot was easily found. I had to drive slowly and carefully so as not to bother the grazing deer. On the morning that started earlier than usual I noticed two flocks of turkey including a turkey tom displaying his tail fan. The park is large with many facilities including boat docks, frizbee golf, and hiking a long trail along the river. I also noticed bicyclists of a every age on mechanical and electric bicycles and tricycles. Beautiful park just a few minutes away from small city conveniences. You won't be disappointed.
