Caliche Lake

We stayed just outside the zone requiring a Discovery Pass because someone pulled up in a car and started partying just as we started to set up. It was a pretty flat pullout but close to 90 so loud from road noise. Good place to walk the dogs but pond was pretty scummy. Really easy to get to though no signs. Use google maps, Apple Ma... more

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... more

Nice little spot with lake access for fishing or dipping your toes in. We only saw 3 other cars while we were there for 2 days, they came to fish for an hour and then left. 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. Y... more

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.

Beautiful area! Although the site is right off of Highway 90, the traffic noise is not that noticeable and to get to the area is a very short drive down a well graveled road. Easy access for our 28ft travel trailer and our truck. Sites are not very level, but with a couple of leveling blocks we were set. It was very windy in the e... more

We stopped by for just a quick overnight. The gate was locked going down to the lake, but there was a wide area outside the gate where we parked. Interstate is loud until later in the night, may have been a bit more noticeable for us though since we have been in very quiet areas for months. Would stay again though for an overnighter.

Nice and quiet. Minimal freeway noise. Nobody there when we arrive. A pit or vault toilet is there but we did not go in it. No trash cans so we picked up a few things to take with us. The state now charges a golden access fee to Camp there. However in the fine print if you have a handicap parking permit that fee is waived, if I read it... more

We pulled in the early evening.
It was very windy.
Easy access for a big rig.
A little bit of Highway noise but overall pleasant.
We wold stop here again.
Or even an overnighter if we went to a concert at the gorge.
Winery's close by to tour also.
Great signal on the cell phone and 4G signal.
