    The drive to the park took us up a two lane road that is a section of the cascade scenic loop. Arriving in the park for our 4 day stay we check in with the friendly owner and site is assigned to us on the riverfront. It was easy to pull into which gave a great view out our front window and was FHU. The park has a huge dog park, bathroom/shower facilities, laundry, lodge and little store which does not have many items. The charm of the park is the beautiful views of the river and mountains and proximity to rafting, hiking, North Cascade National Park and the neat little town of Winthrop. This cute little tourist area is close to the NP and has be redone to resemble a western town with restaurants, river views, and variety of different shops. Drive up the road about two miles, put your tubes in and float down to the park. The little artist hamlet of Twisp is right down the road for shopping. They are home to Hanks Grocery store which oddly has taxidermy collection of wild animals in the store. The frozen food row has quit a collection looking down on you. We would stay here longer in the future.

    Very clean campground and the river is within walking distance. Excellent stay and lots of family fun in the area.

    Twisp goes for miles along the river, so don't give up, the park is after the town and before the schools.

    This campground is a hidden gem if your looking for a real camping experience--not a crowded RV…read moreparking lot with generators humming all night? Let me introduce you to a hidden gem that's the real deal. Whistlin' Pine Ranch sits at the quiet end of Alta Lake, just one mile past the State Park. This four-generation, family-run ranch and campground was started by my girlfriend's grandparents and lovingly restored by Tara, who grew up hunting, fishing, and outfitting with her dad, Brian Varrelman. Many of you will remember Brian as the heart behind Sawtooth Outfitters, leading generations of families on unforgettable trail rides and backcountry hunts. This isn't just any trail ride. It's access to untouched wilderness--no joggers, no mountain bikes, no barking dogs. Just you, a sure-footed horse, and views so breathtaking they'll leave you speechless. If you're lucky, you might even spot the ranch's resident bear stretched out sunbathing by the pond. Whistlin' Pine is the kind of place that reminds you what camping should feel like--peaceful mornings, paddleboarding on the lake, fishing at sunrise, and star-filled nights. Tara has done an incredible job honoring her family's legacy while giving the ranch some love and new life. So if you're craving the real outdoors, not the Instagram version--this is it. Book a site, saddle up, and go make some core memories.

    We first visited WPRSO about ten years ago, shortly after the fire that decimated the nearby Alta…read moreLake State Park. At that time we met Brian, the owner/outfitter, and were impressed with what he had to offer though we were just passing through at the time. We learned from his sidekick that the only reason the beautiful homes, cabins, and ranch at the south end of the lake weren't destroyed in the fire is that Brian and some helpers stayed to keep things watered down when official help wasn't. That's true grit. Fast track to now, and we were planning on staying in Chelan (about 40 minutes away) and I wanted to do some trail riding. I found the newly updated website (really well done - AltaLakeRanch) and contacted Tara, Brian's daughter, who has taken the reins of the ranch now that the Covid issues have passed. She returned my message immediately, something that sooooo many other riding places seem unable to do. She answers her phone. Long story short, we got two rides scheduled for early in the week. She does have a two rider minimum, like so many trail riding places. First two-hour ride ended up being just the two of us, and since I've had horses about forever we could take some of the steeper and rockier trails. This time I rode Bella, a draft/Friesian cross and a giant horse. These trails weren't the easiest, yet she never missed a beat. Since Bella hyper-enjoyed the spring grass, Tara did have to get off her horse to adjust (tighten) up Bella's cinch a few times around her round belly. Otherwise, the saddle fit me well. Tara was riding a young horse that wasn't "string" ready yet but still seemed very well trained to me. Dog Rip, already a great trail dog for his age, joined us. Second two-hour ride we had another person join us, not a regular rider though very fit. Tara asked if I wanted to ride her horse June from the day before (guess I passed the riding test!) so I rode third with her. Once she is on the official string she'll be a favorite as she is nicely trained, moved off the leg really well, was also very sure footed, and just was a pleasure to ride. Well, that plus she isn't a mile high like Bella. Tara rode June's sister, also a young horse in training, and she did great too. Got to add here that Tara knows her horses' quirks well and has appropriate tack for each horse and rider combo. It's awful trying to ride hilly ground on a saddle built for a giant that you slosh around in. This time we took different trails which were more suitable for less experienced riders and really enjoyed the scenery and mountain wildflowers. With 500 acres in this three-generation ranch and adjacent state land to ride on, there are lots of choices for riders from beginners to the more experienced. Reminder to people who don't ride regularly: don't start out with a long ride as you'll be using muscles you never thought you had. You'll realize that in 24 hours and beyond. I found two hours to be perfect for me. We haven't stayed in their campground or attended any equestrian events so I can't comment on that, though Tara is making improvements to the camping area and has more she is exploring. I'll be back to ride again and check on her upgrades as some of them sounded pretty cool.

You should be comfortable with leveling your vehicle, trailer or tent. Lake Wapato on one side and apple orchards on the other on a less-than-busy road made this a perfect location for us. The store has convenience items including snow cones, the public showers and restrooms are clean. This is not glamping with a concrete pad for parking and a burger or pizza store with street lights close by, this is camping. Wifi is pay-per-use and works if used during off-hours. We were there on the 4th of July, enjoyed the celebration in Manson, Chelan and caught some of the fireworks from the RV later that night. Fishing looked good judging by the smiles on the young and old fishing folks. This is a small, family run campground that can cater to tents on one side of the office or tents, trailers and motorhomes up to 30-35' on the main side of the office. Space is subject to availability of sites long enough for your RV and with the right combination of hookups. There is also a trailer on site for rent. You can bring your own boat or rent a boat with oars or a trolling motor, with life jackets. Vehicle-only parking is limited. Some sites also have a picnic table and fire pit. Dogs are welcome, hurray! Our family had fun visiting 2 places close by - Dale at Lake Chelan Helicopters gave us a great tour of Chelan and on a separate flight, a wonderful visit to Stehekin Valley Ranch for dinner. We landed on the field near the lodge after visiting the town of Stehekin. Blueberry Hills Farm is also a treat, if you get there early or during a less busy time. This place is the real deal run by real nice folks. Rates were a good value for the features, services and location. We look forward to a return visit! Thanks Kamei Resort for a fun, memorable summer.
