Camping trip with grandchildren
2nd stay this summer at Boyer Park and Marina. Couldn't be more pleased at the improvements and management. Teri and Leo are great to deal with and kind to our kids. The restrooms, laundry and campsites are very, very clean. There are 2 restroom/shower facilities that I found...may be more. Plan to bring quarters for showers and the laundry should you need them, but very reasonable. Cheaper than any truckstop so I've been told. The grass is nicely maintained and green, the little beach is kept combed and clean. Trash is nil. Flowers everywhere. We had lunch in the restaurant today....wonderful! You would expect a meal like that at a fine resort instead of a river marina where men and steelhead are the norm. I will be taking family and friends here soon since this is better than anything locally. My only dig would be I think it would be a nice addition to have a childs small menu, and would be nice to have had a small salad or some fresh edible garnish with the sandwich. Other than that our 2 stays were wonderful and we look forward to making reservations for 2018.

Very nice surprise
Dropped our son off at College Orientation in Pullman and stayed down at Boyer Park and Marina for two nights in our RV. The drive through the Palouse was gorgeous. Very spur of the moment decision but luckily the park was not crowded (we stayed mid-week). We were pleasantly surprise with the park, restaurant and general store. Camp spots were level with most having full hookups (both 50 and 30 amp). River/Marina Views throughout the park. Grassy areas throughout. Fire pits with fires permitted. Store/Restaurant were great. Store had anything you might have forgotten and we had two excellent dinners at the restaurant (which we REALLY weren't expecting). Staff was very friendly, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived until they gave us directions on how to get pack to Pullman. We walked the Snake River Trail about 2 miles to Lower Granite Dam, visited the visitors center and watch the salmon making their way down the river. Worth the time. Saw a doe and two fawns, rabbits, and more quail than we could count. Late spring had all the flowers in bloom and we collected a beautiful bouquet for our picnic table back at the park. The dam visit was good (we live close to several dams on the Snake and Columbia so have been through this type of center before -- if you haven't, its worth the time) Also -- the park service conducts power house tours every 2 hours (we didn't chose as we had to rush). Drove down and visited the dunes areas just down stream of the damn. Large expanse of beach with shallow water (all sandy) about 50 yards out to the river channel. We'll definitely come back with our boat to enjoy properly. Overall a very good experience and one we will repeat.
