Title: Camping spot in Chewelah/Colville
Post by: Tikka270girl on March 22, 2016, 10:45:03 AM: I'm looking for a great camping spot between Chewelah/Colville with possibly hookups during Turkey season. Any suggestions would be great Thank you in advance :)

:yeah:
My friends and I have stayed several times at the Fair Grounds --- you can pay by the day or week. They have bathrooms with showers as well as full hookups (power, sewer & water). No cable TV, but who cares during turkey season. Pretty quiet also.

So true Sneaky -
Sold the 25 ft RV and bought a fancier 31 footer with double slide and kitchen slide .... camping in style! But going to miss the season this year since I'm being sent to San Diego for 3-1/2 months for aircraft carrier work oversight.

Title: Re: Camping spot in Chewelah/Colville
Post by: Tikka270girl on March 25, 2016, 08:18:16 AM: This is true Bango Skank ?. I do prefer to dry camp but we don't know the area that well and we will be coming over later Thursday evening so it's a matter of two ladies setting up real quick, doing some scouting then hunting for Turks the nxt morning. If you have an idea of a great dry camp spot I would love to hear? :-). Other than that now we are trying to figure out where is closer to Chewellah the Colville Campgrounds or the Beaver Lodge? Thanks again everyone for the feedback :-)

Post by: sneakyjake on March 25, 2016, 10:17:03 PM: No campfires at the fairgrounds. I'm on private property now. Maybe someone on here can help with a nice spot. There are a lot of good ones on public, but they will probably have campers there by then. Anyone living there have a spot?

Post by: jasnt on March 25, 2016, 10:55:25 PM: You will be at the cnf. Pull over some where level and off the road and your set. Literally thousands of places to dry camp. Almost every road coming off flowery trail is public land and turkeys all over. Pull out a tack and a cnf map and close your eyes. Punch that tack some where and go camp and hunt.

Post by: Grizman on March 26, 2016, 08:58:10 AM: Colville Fairgrounds is much closer to Chewelah than Beaver Lodge. Also, you will doing more driving to get to Turkeys if you stay at Beaver.
