Nice Place

Most spots were open midweek during November. One bathroom was closed for the winter. Didn't interact with the hosts, but they were there and seemed attentive. Nice spot next to the river with a covered shelter of decent size.

dat river tho

easy to find campground, got a great spot on a thursday around 5pm but was one of the last available spots. the grounds were quiet and clean. the river is gorgeous and provided us with the perfect background noise for us to unwind in the forest to. will be back.

Gorgeous quiet spot

Secluded riverside campground. Pit toilets, two water pumps, covered picnic with three fire rings. Very few tent sites , so get there early to snag a spot. You do need a Washington State Park Discovery Pass ($11.50 daily), otherwise it is free. Beautiful spot, fell asleep to the sound of the river.
