Moses Lake WA

Cooley city.

Thx Tom but I plan to stay on (or close to) I 90. Coolee City would be a bit out of the way.

US 2 is an easier/prettier drive than I-90, brings you out at Everett, to I-5

I-90 takes way south prior to coming back up to the pass.

Here's a park that we have driven by, but not stayed at. It looked nice.

Look at Sprague Lake Resort.

I-90 is your best route, although it is in terrible condition from Cle Elum to North Bend, US-2 is prettier, but is North of Seattle and way out of your way. Tacoma is South of Seattle. Take the Issaquah to Auburn route towards Tacoma.

Wanapum Recreation Area
4511 Huntzinger Rd
Vantage, WA 98950
(509) 856-2700

Just on the west side of the Columbia River, SOUTH of I-90.
(At least you'll have some shade... and probably a little cool air coming off the River. Moses lake area can be hot, dusy and dry.)

Wanapum is closed because of the dam issues. :(

When we had truck trouble back in 2011 our trailer was towed to Suncrest Resort which is just west of Moses Lake. We ended up staying for a week until the truck was repaired and our stay was great. Paved level pull through sites with grass between. The staff was very nice also.

We've made many Montana to Puget Sound trips and Ritzville to Moses Lake are good distances for a stop.

There is a small RV park attached to a Hotel in Ritzville (the name keeps changing, last time it was a Travel-Lodge) that we have stopped at several times. It's not fancy, but it's shaded, has a pool and you have access to the Hotel. There are two places to eat right next door. They have wifi, but it's better inside the Hotel.
In Moses Lake we have stayed at Cascade Campground (city, no wifi or TV), Grant County Fairgrounds (dito) and Desert Oasis RV. Again places we would stay for an over-tnight.
There is (was?) also a Coast-to-Coast membership campground in Moses Lake, we have stayed at once.

Here are a couple Cedars Inn Desert Oasis

Yah, Coulee City is way off the track, but nice.

Sprague Lake, mentioned, is nice. There's a free fishing area on the south side. Moses also has a very large truck stop.
