Columbia Sun RV Resort in the United States

Good stopover or base camp in the Tri-Cities. Only decent RV park that is close to Kennewick shopping and amenities. Bad WiFi but they are in the process of upgrading.

Columbia Sun is a well done, newer RV resort with lots of amenities. Clean, okay immaculate, pet friendly with wonderful staff. We choose Kennewick Wa for our first old dude retirement trip. Met a group of friends from 2 states to celebrate the hubsters birthday/retirement. Have friends who live on Canyon Lakes Golf So there was plenty to do for everyone in the TriCities area. Our 12 person group did Wine tasting, farmers markets, golfing, bicycling and lazing by the pool. We had a great spot with a concrete pad, full hookup, picnic table and rocking bench. All the sites are spacious and angled for more privacy. Nice landscaping with grass at every site, 2 off leash doggie areas, three bathrooms with showers and laundry. Only downside was done road noise at night. Great place! Would definitely come back again.

There are several great places to let your pup have a great time off leash within 10 min of the RV park (Badger Mtn, an epic dog park behind Yoke's Fresh Market, and a nature preserve next to Amon Creek on Leslie Rd.). Their dog parks are some of the smallest I have experienced, but they do let you run your dog off leash on the disk golf course and you can wander off to the adjacent undeveloped land. It was a treat to have a park with mega wide and paved roads (finally, no billowing dust storms from cars wandering the rv park). I found all of the staff to be great. For example, I arrived 15 min after closing without a reservation, but since they were still milling around they took me in without any complaint and took the time to 'talk to me' about area. I too find it a bit pricey, but the rate is only fractionally higher than the competition and the monthly rate (starting at 500/mo + electricity) is in my opinion a fair price. I have paid a lot more in Colorado Springs. Sure, I too find it disappointing to charge me a pet fee. The bathrooms are amazing. Love having a private and secure 100 sq foot room with shower, sink and toilet. Wish I could adjust the water temp and didn't have to keep hitting the shower power to keep water running, but for me it is a minor inconvenience. Biggest downside? It is next to a busy residential/industrial road and the freeway is just beyond that road. The early morning commuters had me up pretty early on the days I was sleeping with the window open. They offer free basic cable and wifi, which I found was capable of handling video streaming well. Here are my speed test results (ping/download/upload) from my MIFI devices: tmobile (29,24,8) verizon w/ MIMO (48,73,34) verizon w/o MIMO (48,112,34)

I haven't stayed here but live close by and we've stopped in to get propane, shop in their gift store and to get photos with Santa.This RV park is very tidy and the staff are very friendly. Great gift shop with cute items, snacks and friendly staff. No permanent residents at this park that I am aware of. They have a nice pool area and a very nice and large event center/common room. The grounds are nice, spacing between sites is like most typical rv parks, so not much privacy but not overly cramped. Trees are still small as well, so not a lot of shade yet. You will be able to see and hear the freeway, but you will most likely also hear coyotes and see numerous jackrabbits and hawks. There is a busy train line down the raod, but if camping in an RV, it shouldn't be a problem. Great access to freeway and to the center of Kennewick/Richland. Be sure to get your morning coffee at Bager Canyon Coffee Co by the roundabout.
