The entire atmosphere was awesome! Stayed in the general camping and it was so much fun! All the artists were great and the venue was amazing! This was the first concert I have gone to at the Gorge and I don't know why I didn't go sooner.

If you like country music then you NEED to go to this concert! I am buying tickets for next year as soon as they come on sale!

Loved everything about it except the camping facilities were not up to par. Got moved to the overflow camping as they oversold or put too many RV's & oversized vehicles in the premium camping. Overflow had only one shower trailer with 3 showers and was an extremely long walk away. Porta-Johns did not have any hand washing facilities near them which would have been nice. Need to enforce the quiet time after 2am.

Needed more cool zones with water spraying and shade in the concert.

When buying camping tickets, I had to buy "over 30' long". No place did it say where the camping would be. I checked again tuesday, 2 days before we left for the concert....still nothing. We arrived late thursday evening & headed up the hill towards general camping. They said we had to go to gate B--drive around the back side of general camping (thru deep ruts) and THRU GENERAL CAMPING!! Several other trailers were following us. People when yelling & cussing at us, walking out in front of us, flipping us off & pounding on our trailer (I felt like we were driving thru a riot!)!! None of the people at any of the check points knew where we were suppose to be going or why all of us were being sent thru general camping. A)should of shown on the camping map where we would be when buying the tickets & should of had a description just like the other camping options. B)should of turned us around at the top of general camping ticket gate instead of having all the "over size" trailers/RV and people in "premier" driving THRU general camping!! Once we got to the over size lot, we were so excited! We were soooo close to the gates, nice long grass & each lot was staked out with enuf rm. It was also nice we could leave & not as loud/partying!! I hope over size is always an option & in the same place!! I would of been mad to pay the extra money to up grade from general to premier & been packed in like sardines just like general. Plus, we wouldn't of had enuf blocks to level our trailer. It was crazy the amount of blocks lots of people needed just to level their trailers. I thought in Premier you had a set size area & guaranteed a spot no matter what day they arrived? A bunch were put in over sized Friday. Most were probably really happy with that expect we had friends who made & brought a lot of decorations etc but were separated from the rest of their group since they arrived 12 hrs later. The concert was great--as usual!! Wish it wasn't so hot but we knew what to expect because we have been to several concerts that same wkend at the Gorge! Definitely will go again!!

I am already planning for next year. I loved every minute of it.
Wish with the heat there was more shade available and we could bring in more water. It's hard to spend $3.50 for bottled water when your drinking 10 a day. Also. I had to give up my ticket which upset me. I like to keep them as momentos.

It all it was a great time. Can't wait to go again.

Wow!! Why had we not had something like this before?!?! This was amazing. The views were spectacular and the line up of artists were so awesome (minus Johnny Reid who was NOT country at all!! ~ we walked away when he started singing).

The only suggestion I have is that if it turns out as hot as it was this year, please provide more covered areas with seating, fans and misters and water stations to allow people a place to cool off and not become overheated or passed out with heat stroke and end up in the ER (as I did even after drinking over a liter of water).

I am so looking forward to next year!! This will be the event of the year!!

If you like camping and you like country music, you will seriously LOVE watershed! Three full days of nothing but country music. You have until about 1-2 everyday to do what you want in the morning (i.e. get over your hangover, swim in the columbia [if you know how to get down there], BBQ with your camping neighbors, etc.). We did terrace camping which was great mainly for the shuttle to the camp grounds after the concert and to the concert from the camp grounds. Also got free coffee and donuts in the morning, HOT showers, flush toliets. Something that general camping definitely doesn't offer/have. It's also quieter down in terrace than in both premium and general.
-The shows were great, I never made it to the local stage, because I didn't want to lose my spot in the pit for the next headliner on the main stage. They had great screens on both sides of the stage so everyone on the hill could see and it was just great!! Won VIP tickets to margaritaville, got free drinks all day! (and free water which saved me so much money! $3.50 for bottle there).
GO TO WATERSHED if you can handle 100+ degree weather, dirt, sweat, country hotties wearing nothing (and I do mean nothing...both the women and the men. Very enjoyable!) and lots of drinking!!

The camping venue was very poor. Can I say extremely crowded. Packed in like sardines, hot sardines, cooked and fried sardines. The camping is so far from the main venue that you really couldn't go back and forth, you had to committ to heading over, and stay all day. Which would have been fine in anything other than 100 degree heat. The bands were in consistant. Some were way more rock than country. Best performers were Dierks, Lost Trailer, Sarah Evans, Miranda and Blake. The rest were a bit of a bust. I would NOT ever attend again if it is held in August. I would get a room in Moses Lake or stay at a state park in my camper. Oh and bring money. $6.00 for a bag of ice and $14.00 for a beer???? Well I guess they need to make money somehow.

Perfect weather combined with the most beautiful venue in the US served as the backdrop to a really fun week-end. All the headlining artists were amazing - loved Dwight, Dierks, Miranda, Blake, Brantley and Thompson Square. I hope they put on a 2nd Watershed next year - I will definitely be there!!

I am very disappointed with the experience. We were told one vehicle in one camping spot so we purchased two spots. There were multiple vehicles in spots with no permit. Vehicles were blocking exit so we couldn't get RV out of camping area. There was little or no control. We were allowed our chairs the first two days and then told on sunday we couldn't have them. We had two disabled people in our party that cant sit on ground and said we would sit at top of hill so no one was behind us. The employees were very rude and said they didn't care. We complained about the policy because we had the chairs previously and one employee said Quote: "This is a new day and you can't have them. Lay them against the fence and if they are not there when you get back that's your problem. We were so angry with their rudness we actually left and didn't watch any concerts on Sunday. Even with lawn chairs we had to stand for the headliners sets because everyone stood in front of us.
