RV Parks In Cashmere, Washington

The strongest all-around pick is Wenatchee River County Park in nearby Monitor, a public park with roughly 43 full-hookup riverfront sites that handle big rigs. For private riverfront resorts near Leavenworth, Icicle River RV Resort and Blu-Shastin RV Park both offer full hookups on the water, and the Leavenworth/Pine Village KOA puts you a shuttle ride from the Bavarian village. Thousand Trails Leavenworth is the big year-round park up Icicle Road for members. Up in the national forest, Icicle Road campgrounds give you quiet, no-hookup sites. Together that mix covers budget, big-rig, and walk-to-town needs.

Yes, full hookups are common here. Wenatchee River County Park offers water, electric, and sewer on most of its paved sites, and the private resorts toward Leavenworth run full hookups with 30 and 50 amp service. Icicle River RV Resort, Blu-Shastin, the Leavenworth/Pine Village KOA, and Thousand Trails all provide full-hookup pads that fit big rigs. The main exception is the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest campgrounds up Icicle Road, which are scenic but have no hookups. If you need 50-amp for air conditioning in the summer heat, stick with the county park or one of the private resorts.

Cashmere runs cheaper than staying inside Leavenworth, which is the main reason to base here. Wenatchee River County Park sits in the moderate price band and is the best full-hookup value in the valley. The private resorts near Leavenworth, including Icicle River RV Resort and the KOA, charge more, and their rates climb sharply for Oktoberfest and the December Christmas lighting. Blu-Shastin and Thousand Trails tend to run a bit lower. National-forest sites up Icicle Road are the cheapest option if you can camp without hookups. Expect a deposit on festival-weekend bookings, and count on midweek being easier on the wallet.

For summer weekends, reserve a few weeks out; for the Leavenworth fall festivals and the December Christmas lighting, book months ahead because every riverfront park in the valley fills. Wenatchee River County Park takes reservations through the Chelan County system and books early for peak weekends. The private resorts and the KOA reserve direct and sell out for Oktoberfest fast. Outside those peaks, midweek and shoulder-season dates in spring and late fall are much easier, and you can often find a national-forest site up Icicle Road first-come. Plan earliest around any Leavenworth event date.

Late spring and early summer hit the sweet spot: parks have reopened, the weather is warm and dry, and the big festival crowds have not arrived. Summer is peak for river floating and Leavenworth day trips but hot and busy, so reserve ahead. Fall is beautiful with apple harvest and Cascade color, but Oktoberfest packs the valley, so book early. Winter is quiet and cold with most riverfront parks closed, though the December Christmas lighting in Leavenworth is a special draw if you can find a year-round site. Shoulder weeks give you the best mix of value and elbow room.

Yes, several parks here are built for length. Wenatchee River County Park has paved pads and roads that take 40-foot rigs, and Blu-Shastin RV Park is known for spacious pull-throughs. The Leavenworth/Pine Village KOA and Thousand Trails Leavenworth both handle big rigs on full-hookup sites with 50-amp service. Icicle River RV Resort works for larger rigs too, though riverfront sites can be tighter, so confirm your length when you book. The one place to be cautious is the national-forest campgrounds up Icicle Road, where sites tilt small and older. US-2 through Cashmere is an easy big-rig route in from either direction.

The closest thing to free is the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest camping up Icicle Road out of Leavenworth. Those campgrounds run first-come or through Recreation.gov, have no hookups, and cost far less than the private resorts, though they fill on summer weekends. With a national-forest pass, some dispersed spots exist farther up the drainage. Around town the hookup parks are all reservable and there is not much true boondocking, so treat the forest sites as your budget fallback. If you need power and a dump, plan on a paid site at the county park or a private resort instead.

You get both. On the public side, Wenatchee River County Park is a Chelan County park with full hookups, Lake Wenatchee State Park sits about half an hour northwest, and the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest runs campgrounds up Icicle Road. On the private side, the valley toward Leavenworth has a strong run of riverfront resorts, including Icicle River RV Resort, Blu-Shastin, the Leavenworth/Pine Village KOA, and Thousand Trails Leavenworth. That mix is good for RVers: the public parks give you value and the private resorts give you full hookups close to the village and its festivals.

Plenty, and most of it is close. In Cashmere itself, tour the Aplets & Cotlets candy factory and walk through the Cashmere Museum and Pioneer Village. Ten miles west, Leavenworth is the region's draw, with Bavarian-themed shops, beer gardens, Oktoberfest, and the famous December Christmas lighting. The Wenatchee River gives you rafting and floating all summer. To the east near Wenatchee, visit Ohme Gardens above the Columbia and tour apple country. Add Cascade hiking up Icicle Road, fishing, and fall color, and a few days fill easily from a single base.

Wenatchee River County Park in Monitor is the closest full-hookup park, sitting just a few minutes east of Cashmere right on the Wenatchee River. It offers water, electric, and sewer on paved pads, handles big rigs, and is run by Chelan County, which keeps prices in the moderate band. That makes it a favorite for RVers who want hookups without paying Leavenworth resort rates. Reserve through the county system for summer weekends and the fall festivals. If it is full, Blu-Shastin RV Park on the Peshastin River between Cashmere and Leavenworth is the next closest full-hookup option.

Summer in the valley is hot and dry, with afternoon highs often in the upper 80s and low humidity thanks to the Cascade rain shadow. Nights cool off nicely into the 50s, which helps for sleeping. It is peak season because the Wenatchee River draws rafters and floaters and Leavenworth pulls day-trippers, so reserve full-hookup sites ahead. You will want a shaded or riverfront pad and a working air conditioner on a 50-amp hookup for the hottest afternoons. Wildfire smoke can drift into the valley in late summer some years, so check air-quality reports before a long stay.

US-2, the Stevens Pass Highway, is the main route and runs right through Cashmere, connecting Leavenworth to the west and Wenatchee to the east. It is a comfortable big-rig road from either direction; coming over Stevens Pass from the Seattle side, take the grades slow but the highway is fully rig-friendly. For the riverfront parks around Monitor and Peshastin, watch for signed turnoffs directly off US-2. Wenatchee, about ten miles east, is the nearest hub for fuel, groceries, and RV supplies, and Pangborn Memorial Airport nearby makes Cashmere a workable fly-and-rent base for a Cascades trip.

Yes, and that is exactly why many RVers base here. Cashmere sits about ten miles east of Leavenworth on US-2, so you can stay at quieter, cheaper riverfront parks around Cashmere, Monitor, and Peshastin and still be in the Bavarian village in fifteen minutes. If you want to be right at Leavenworth, the Pine Village KOA and Icicle River RV Resort put you within walking or shuttle distance of the shops and festivals. Either way you get easy access to Oktoberfest, the December Christmas lighting, and summer river floating without paying peak village-center rates for every night.
