Never ever going back to this campsite again!! My family and I (anywhere between 20-25 of us including kids) go to Chelan every year just to get away from the city. Usually we camp closer to Lake Chelan but this year we totally thought for some dumb reason that we didn't need to reserve camp sites ahead of time, so the campsite we usually camp at was booked and so we're all the other ones within 30 minutes of Lake Chelan. After searching we came across lightening pine rv park. We called and talked to Randy who seemed nice but asked we check in before 6pm, we agreed and made it there a bit after 5. The place is nice, kid friendly, had convenient beach areas for the kids which was awesome. Upon arrival Randy greeted us with a beer in his hand (didn't think anything of it) then he kind of gave us the run down, where the restroom/shower was, asked that we didn't pick his apples and peaches (we respected his wishes)... He then went on to say that he doesn't keep paper towels in the restrooms because it's expensive and that we can just shake the water off... (Odd but whatever)... He constantly reminded us to make sure we turn the lights & water off (constantly) and we said sure no worries we can do that. Then he would pretty much harass us every time we used the restroom or shower... Waiting outside, yelling at the kids for using the hose/outdoor faucet to wash sand off their feet.. The next morning we woke up had breakfast packed up and were at the lake from 11am & returned about 6pm... (We were gone for most of the day) when we got back we had dinner and most of us showered, used the restroom because it's included in the amenities.. $.75 for five minutes to shower. He pretty much flipped out on us for showering, "wasting his water & electricity" told us that we can use the honey buckets, wash our hands and things in the river if needed and that "we were always in the bathroom..." Are we not paying customers? We were respectful, did as he asked, cleaned up after ourselves. If you don't want people using the toilets and showers then don't offer those amenities! Literally harassed every time any of us went to the restroom, even the kids. Worst experience ever, never would I recommend any family or friends or even strangers to go camp here!!

Made reservations to stay here for Memorial weekend. Arranged plans with a dozen friends, had everything setup. The night before my reservation, at 11:30pm, this Randy guy calls me up acting crazy, and said he was cancelling my reservation. I still have no idea why he cancelled our reservation, although he kept complaining that he knew what type of people we are and that we would be partying and stuff. My group is a bunch of middle-aged professionals looking for a quiet time, so that was completely bizarre. So, thanks Randy, for being a complete jerk and ruining Memorial weekend for a dozen people by waiting until literally the very last second to cancel our plans. This person is completely untrustworthy, is not good to his word, and is crazy. He actually insulted me on the phone, and was yelling at me. At 11:30pm. The night before my reservations. What a truly awful experience and a terrible person.

This is a nice and cozy RV and tent park that is right on the river. The grass area is nice and the river flowing by at night soothing. The bathrooms are a bit "dated" but adequate. Randy is a nice guy who is totally willing to help. Overall a really good experience. I would come back.
