Wenatchee Confluence State Park sits at the junction of the Columbia and Wenatchee rivers, offering 70 sites (tent and RV) with full hookups, showers, and a 10-mile paved trail system. Sites are large and grassy with mature shade trees. Fees run $10–30 per night. Expect mosquitoes in summer and some road and train noise from the surrounding valley.
State park campground with RV and tent sites on grassy, spacious lots; more developed/city-style campground atmosphere.
Weather and SeasonsSummer is peak season. Daytime highs reach the mid-80s to mid-90s°F, nights cool to the 50s–60s°F. The rivers warm enough for swimming, and the boat launch, beach, and paved trails see heavy use. Reserve early for weekends and holidays. The lush grass and riverside setting fuel mosquito populations in warm months. Bring repellent. Spring snowmelt occasionally closes the swim area when rivers swell.
Natural Features and SceneryThe park occupies low-elevation (666 ft) floodplain where two major rivers meet, creating wetland habitat that draws bald eagles and waterfowl. Mature deciduous trees shade open grass fields. The Columbia and Wenatchee provide shoreline access for fishing, paddling, and a protected swimming beach. Nearby wildlife preserve areas host diverse riparian species. Spring snowmelt from the Cascades can raise river levels enough to temporarily close swim zones.
