What others are saying about this campground
Sandbar Campground is a remote, forested area located off a two lane dirt road, 4.5 miles from the main highway. The campsites are relatively private, with each site featuring a picnic table, fire pit, and bear pole. There are no showers or running water, but there are toilets available and phone signal is sparse. The campground is a fifteen minute drive from the park headquarters, popular trails, and other activities. It is a great spot for nature lovers, with an abundance of wildlife and the opportunity to explore the Cossatot River and nearby falls. The sites are first come first serve and cash pay only, with each site having enough room for three tents. Pets are welcome and the campground is pet friendly. There are no reservations, so make sure to arrive early to secure a spot.

From The Campground

Cossatot River State Park-Natural Area is a park-natural area that extends for 12 miles along the National Wild and Scenic Cossatot River. The river forms Cossatot Falls, a rocky canyon with Class IV rapids for experienced kayakers and canoeists when local rainfall increases the watershed. Brushy Creek Recreation Area offers picnic sites, restrooms, and river access. Tent sites (no hookups) are located at the Cossatot Falls Area (six sites), Sandbar Area (15 sites), and Ed Banks Area (two sites). A primitive (no water or electricity) group camping area with tent sites, pavilion, restroom, fire pit, grill, and river access is available by reservation at River Ridge Group Camp. Hikers can enjoy four scenic trails spanning nearly 20 miles. The visitor center features exhibits, a wildlife observation room, meeting room, and gift shop. Interpretive programs are offered year-round.
