RV Parks In Davenport, Washington

Davenport is a small wheat-country town on US-2 about 35 miles west of Spokane, so your choices split between a quick overnight in town and a lake-country base to the north. Right in town, the Lincoln County Fairgrounds offers simple RV parking with a donation-based dump on an unoccupied site, handy for a night off US-2. Head up WA-25 and you reach two National Park Service campgrounds on the Columbia: Fort Spokane Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) about 25 miles north, and Spring Canyon Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) near Grand Coulee Dam. Neither has hookups. For full hookups with 30 and 50-amp power, plan on a private RV park in Spokane, roughly 35 miles east.

Not the public ones close to town. The Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area campgrounds at Fort Spokane Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) and Spring Canyon Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) are no-hookup sites, so you camp self-contained and use the on-site dump and fill stations on your way in or out. The Lincoln County Fairgrounds has a single sewer connection at an unoccupied site rather than full service. If you need full hookups with electric, water, sewer, and 30 or 50-amp power to run air conditioning, your reliable option is a private RV park in Spokane, about 35 miles east on US-2 and I-90. Plan tank capacity accordingly if you are staying lakeside, since you will be dry-camping the whole time.

Yes, with a little route planning. US-2 through Davenport is a well-maintained two-lane highway with no low bridges or weight limits, so reaching town or continuing toward Spokane is easy for a 40-foot motorhome or a big fifth wheel. The road to respect is WA-25 running north toward Lake Roosevelt, which is paved and rig-friendly but has some grade as it drops toward the river crossings near Fort Spokane, so take it slow with a loaded rig or a tow. The NPS campgrounds accommodate RVs, though sites vary in length, so check the maximum length when you reserve. In town, the fairgrounds and edge-of-town lots have room to maneuver a large rig.

It depends on the season and where you want to stay. The Lake Roosevelt NPS campgrounds run a mix of reservable and first-come sites through recreation.gov, and for July and August weekends you should book ahead because the lake draws a crowd, especially around Grand Coulee Dam and the summer laser show. In spring and fall the same campgrounds are quiet enough that you can usually show up and find a first-come spot without a reservation. The Lincoln County Fairgrounds in town is informal and typically has room except during the county fair, when sites fill and the dump is unavailable. If you are chasing a full-hookup private RV park in Spokane for a busy summer weekend, reserve that ahead too.

Yes, and they are the main draw. The two closest are federal: Fort Spokane Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA), about 25 miles north via WA-25 near the confluence of the Spokane and Columbia rivers, and Spring Canyon Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) near Grand Coulee Dam, which has 78 sites and stays open year-round though its water is shut off in winter. Both are National Park Service campgrounds on the Lake Roosevelt reservoir with dump and fill stations but no hookups. For a state park option, Steamboat Rock State Park sits about 55 miles northwest on Banks Lake, with camping, boating, and hiking beneath a striking basalt monolith. Reserve Steamboat Rock through Washington State Parks, and check recreation.gov for the Lake Roosevelt sites.

You have both options here, which is part of the appeal. The Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area campgrounds offer a mix of reservable and first-come sites, so outside of peak summer weekends you can often just show up at Fort Spokane or Spring Canyon and find a spot. During July and August, and especially around Grand Coulee Dam event weekends, book ahead through recreation.gov to be safe. The Lincoln County Fairgrounds in town is casual and usually open except during the county fair. If you want a guaranteed full-hookup site, reserve a private RV park in Spokane in advance, since those fill on summer weekends. Our rule of thumb: reserve for peak summer, wing it in spring and fall.

Late spring through early fall, roughly May to October, is the sweet spot. Summers are short, warm, and dry with hot afternoons that cool off fast at night, ideal for the lake, though it is also the busiest stretch and can bring wildfire smoke in late summer. Fall is arguably the nicest window: settled, dry weather through September and into October, cool nights, and lighter crowds once the reservations ease after Labor Day. Spring is pleasant once the mud season passes in May, but it can be windy, so watch crosswinds on US-2 in a high-profile rig. Winter is freezing and snowy with icy grades on WA-25, so most RVers who visit in the cold months base at a full-hookup park in Spokane instead.

Not many close to town. Dispersed camping is limited right around Davenport, which sits in developed wheat country rather than open public land, so most boondockers push on toward the broader Lake Roosevelt shoreline outside the developed NPS campgrounds once they are through town. There is no free RV dump in or immediately around Davenport either: the Lincoln County Fairgrounds asks for a donation, and the two Lake Roosevelt NPS stations charge a posted fee of $10, or $5 with a Senior or Access pass. Washington rest areas allow up to 8 hours of parking but no camping. If you want to save money, the honest play here is a low-cost NPS site at the lake rather than trying to find free dispersed camping close in.

It is a solid base if you want to see Grand Coulee Dam and spend time on Lake Roosevelt. Spring Canyon Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) sits roughly 45 miles northwest of Davenport near the dam, with 78 sites and a dump and fill station on site. It stays open year-round, though the water is shut off in winter, so plan to arrive with full fresh tanks in the cold months. There are no hookups, so you camp self-contained. The payoff is easy access to the reservoir for boating and fishing and a short hop to the dam visitor center and its free summer laser light show projected on the spillway. Arrive early on summer evenings, since the free show draws a crowd and parking fills up.

Davenport is a launch pad for the Lake Roosevelt and Grand Coulee country to the north. Grand Coulee Dam, about 45 miles northwest, is one of the largest concrete structures in the world, with a visitor center and a free summer laser light show on the spillway. The surrounding Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area offers boating, fishing, and swimming along the Columbia River reservoir. Steamboat Rock State Park, roughly 55 miles northwest on Banks Lake, delivers hiking and boating beneath a dramatic basalt monolith. Closer in, the small Lincoln County Historical Museum covers homestead-era and county history. Most RVers use Davenport itself as a fuel, grocery, and propane stop before heading up WA-25 to camp and explore the lakes and the dam.

Some are, but your comfortable options shrink in winter. Spring Canyon Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) near Grand Coulee Dam stays open year-round, but its water is shut off in the cold months, so you would be dry-camping in freezing, snowy conditions. Fort Spokane Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) and the in-town Lincoln County Fairgrounds are practical mainly in the warmer months, and the fairgrounds dump connection can freeze in a hard cold snap. WA-25 north of town can ice up in winter, which makes the drive to the lake sketchy. For a reliable cold-weather stay, most RVers head to a full-hookup private RV park in Spokane about 35 miles east, where you get electric, water, and sewer service through the winter. Plan around the season here.

This is an affordable area compared with most destinations. The Lake Roosevelt NPS campgrounds charge modest federal nightly rates, and their dump and fill stations run $10, or $5 with a Senior or Access pass, whether or not you are camping. The Lincoln County Fairgrounds in town works on a donation basis for its dump, so a night there is about as cheap as it gets. There is no free camping to fall back on right in Davenport, but the low public rates make that easy to accept. Your bigger cost is a private RV park in Spokane if you want full hookups, which runs standard metro pricing and climbs on summer weekends. Fuel and propane in town are reasonable, so budget mainly for the miles up to the lake country.

The weather swings hard with the seasons out here in the Channeled Scablands. Summers are short, warm, and dry with hot afternoons, and late summer can bring wildfire smoke drifting through the wheat country. Winters are freezing and snowy, and WA-25 north toward Lake Roosevelt can ice up, so cold-season travel takes care. Spring is windy with a muddy shoulder season before things dry out in May, so mind crosswinds on US-2 in a high-profile rig. Fall is the calm, settled stretch. On the roads, US-2 through town is easy for any rig, but WA-25 has some grade dropping toward the river crossings near Fort Spokane, so take loaded descents slowly. Fuel and resupply in Davenport before you head north, since services thin out fast.

It depends on your trip. If you are just passing through on US-2 and need a cheap, convenient overnight, the Lincoln County Fairgrounds right in town is the easy call, with a donation-based dump and room to maneuver a big rig. If you want to actually spend time on the water and see Grand Coulee Dam, base up at the lake: Fort Spokane Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) about 25 miles north, or Spring Canyon Campground (Lake Roosevelt NRA) closer to the dam, both with dump stations but no hookups. If you need full hookups and 50-amp power, skip the lake for a private RV park in Spokane and day-trip out. Many RVers fuel and resupply in Davenport, then camp a couple of nights on Lake Roosevelt.
