Very friendly staff they are always helpful and smiling. They are making improvements to this older KOA. We were here during the winter and it was a little muddy at our site. We love it being on the river. 2/1/2020

My stay was great, although it rained most of the time. I was allowed to pick my own spot as there wasn’t many people there. The staff were very friendly and helpful. 1/30/2020

Thanks, had a real nice overnight stay. Had a battery issue and one of the other campers was quick to help. Thx 1/4/2020

Probably one of our better stays. Stayed in November - pretty empty at this point. Spot right on the river, super pretty. Water was turned off for winter but no biggie. Stayed one night and would return. Imagine it’s gorgeous in warmer months. 11/27/2019

Roslyn is a historic coal mining town which boasts of a log cabin built in the 1880's, 25 old ethnic cemeteries and the quaint Roslyn Museum. Roslyn is the filming site of the television series "Northern Exposure."

There are few mountaintops in Washington that are accessible by such a short and easy trail. Red Top is a great trail for kids and for adults wanting a half-day hike in the Teanaways. This area is also considered one of the best by valley rock hounds.

From I-90, take exit 85 and go north on Hwy. 97 North for 18 miles. Just past the Mineral Springs Campground, go north on FR 9738. In 2.6 miles, go left on FR 9702. Drive 4.5 miles to the trailhead at the picnic area, elevation 5,000 feet. NW Forest Pass required.
