Tracy,
You are right on the ball. I took a drive out to the Liberty Lake campground today and also the KOA on Barker 1/2 mile from Shelleys Automotive.
Liberty Lake campground (secluded) about 7-8 miles from Shelleys. No reservations, first come basis.
Cost has gone up this year, $15. 00 + $2. 00 per person for RV and I didn't ask about tents, but they have tent areas right next to the RV's, probably somewhere around $10. 00. Nice secluded campground with swimming access to Liberty Lake. They have showers. You have to drive about 1 mile round trip on gravel to access campground. Go all the way to the end where it flattens out into a nice flat open area to camp (still lots of trees around). You could probably get about 15-20 good size RV's.
If you decide to use this campground beware! There were signs on the information shack that Bear and cub, and a Cougar have been sighted in the last 2 weeks!

Unless you have other intentions or activities in Spokane/Coeur d'Alene area, this KOA I think is just the ticket. Very convient, only 1/2 mile to Shelleys.
THIS KOA IS NOT THE SAME ONE BOB WAGNER POSTED ABOUT!
