Free camping on Lake Wallula.
4 small tent/RV sites
Update: There are 4 designated spots for RVs, trailers, and tent campers. However, three large rigs made their own spots across the parking lot from them.
This place is very active. Lots of families came in during the day to swim and cook out. A couple of tents came and went while we were there too. We saw 4 other RVs. One was out by 8am the next morning. The three others didn’t move. They were staying long term. One of the trailers didn’t have a vehicle to move it. We spoke with them. They seemed nice/safe enough. However, even though they have been told to leave by the ranger (before we got there), they don’t seem to be in any hurry.
I was never in any fear of my safety.
Noise level is high. There are trains on both sides of the park. There is also a highway adjacent the the park. Partying is quite common. There are also a lot of dogs and children.
Directions:
One mile east of Umatilla, OR, on Highway 730, and take the McNary Dam Road.

We recommend that once you locate a suitable camping location on our website, you do additional research to confirm that it is still open, the correct location, and free or less than $11 prior to driving there. In most cases, we provide the current contact information in the entry for each campsite. We make every effort to be up to date and accurate, but with number of campsites we have to keep up with, there may be some discrepancies. Thank you again for your contributions. Please let us know if you encounter any items that need to updated.
