What to know in Spokane County
WDFW notes that most of District 2, which includes Spokane County, is privately owned, so a private campsite with the owner’s blessing can be the best option near farm country.
Be specific: tent or RV, how many nights, how many people and vehicles, and how you’ll handle water, toilets and trash. For anything recurring or commercial, check with Spokane County Building & Planning first, because county codes regulate RV occupancy and campgrounds.
Summer burn bans are common in Eastern Washington, so plan on no campfires unless the owner and current restrictions allow them. For owners: RCW 4.24.210 lists camping among the activities where letting people use your land without a fee limits your liability.
