Easy to access from interstate, very pretty ponds with butterflies, flowers and bird life. AT&T was great. Some road noise but not bad, the parking lot had a perfect RV back in site right next to the water. Pit toilet for those that need it.

You can hear the great in the distance. Very doable. Any rv fits but maybe 4 or 5 max....
Tents ok but a bit rocky.
It's a beautiful place on the small lakes..... fairly level as well.
Might be some fish in there who knows. Through it a hook and let us know!

Stayed here over night headed to Colville for turkey season. Easy access for our 30ft camper. A little close to the highway so you hear everything but for free, not bad at all. Morning sunrise and lake front wasn’t bad either. We would stop in again.

A fisherman’s pull out on a pretty little lake surrounded by sage and a bit dusty. We observed about 6 pickups of fishermen. Several different kinds of ducks and a beautiful sunrise. The freeway is close by and we heard it but not as noisy as we expected. Great little spot.

We stayed at Caliche Lake a few nights ago. We've driven by it many times, but this time we decided to stop. Glad we did! The lakes are beautiful and there is room for quite a few RV's without feeling too crowded. There wasn't too much trash, but you could tell someone recently camped there who drank a lot of bottled beer. SO many caps left behind, which was a bummer. We picked some of them up... maybe the next fellow traveler will do the same.
We could hear I-90 while laying in bed, but that's why we travel with ear plugs :) No biggie.
There was a restroom, but we didn't use it. Not sure of the cleanliness.
Pack plenty of bug spray for the evenings!!
Enjoy!

Really pretty sunsets in this area, only 10 minutes from Vantage scenic views and the Gorge. Would definitely stay again! And the freeway noise never bothered us. You do need a Discover Pass.

It is free, but you must have a Discover Pass. We purchased our Discover Pass online on site, very convenient!
It was hot while we were there. With our windows open the highway can be heard.
Big rig friendly, relatively flat, outhouse, lake front view, primitive dirt boat launch.
