Springdale is a town in Stevens County, Washington, United States. The population was 234 at the 2020 census.

The present site of Springdale was a wilderness until about 1886, when Mr. John Shriner and Mr. Charles O. Squire arrived at about the same time. Squire erected the first sawmill in 1887. Once Mr. Squire finalized his homestead, he platted the area on November 29, 1889, which he called Squire City. He became the first postmaster in December 1889 and named the town "Squires City."

Mark P. Sheffer was the first merchant. He brought in material by horse-drawn freight wagons prior to the arrival on the railroad.

In 1889, the Spokane Falls & Northern Railway (SF&N) was completed to the area and the depot was called Springdale. Springdale was the lunch stop between Spokane and Northport on the SF&NRR. Sometime before 1892, residents petitioned to have the town's name changed to "Springdale." While the exact reason for this is unknown, the town is built over a series of subterranean streams, many of which emerge from the ground as springs. Springdale was officially incorporated on February 9, 1903.

The Springdale Reformer, started by Elmer Burrows, was published from 1907 to 1923.

The entire business section of Springdale was destroyed by fire, July 9, 1908.
