Everyone has already jumped in and given some great advice, so I'll skip that part and tell our story. We were on the way to Steam Boat Rock, so we were on Hwy 17, and would be going right past Dry Falls. Neither of us had ever been there, but I had done my homework before we got there and knew where I wanted to go.
With out saying a word, I turned off at Sun Lakes State Park and drove all the way into the bottom of the falls, right to the edge of Dry Falls Lake. It puts you right in the middle of the bottom of the massive hole that the falls created.
Now every time we watch Nick On The Rocks, and we see the shot of Nick standing on the lookout above the falls, she yells out "I've been there"!!!
P.S. The last part of the road to the lake is dirt/gravel. Not something you want to do in a RV.
I can recommend both Sun Lakes and Steam Boat Rock for camping.
I haven't seen "Nick on the Rocks", but is this the viewpoint? Standing at the end is an experience!

I'll second or third making a stop at Palouse Falls. While the campground is for tents or very short RVs, there is an overflow parking lot that works well for dry camping. I was lucky on my visit - no one in the host site, so I had full hookups.
