Great campground

We arrived without a reservation and were happy that the office was still open at 7pm on a Sunday. The staff was super friendly and we got a really nice spot in the area that has WiFi. The campground is great, in a little forest with plenty of space between the lots and very quiet. Clean facilities and they even have a little farm.

Awesome hidden camping

We had a little trouble finding this spot because an industrial area moved in around the campground.  Signs tell you where it is, but it feels wrong. If you follow signs to the campground, you won't be disappointed. 

We met the owner and visited with her for a while about her business. Unfortunately, there are no tent spots available. But we were able to get an RV spot and had access to a very clean shower and restroom.

Wonderful and Beautiful Family Owned and Operated Campground

Beautiful campground in the forest that’s convenient to Olympia and yet feels quiet and private. Management is fantastic and offerings are simple but spot on. Had a fantastic stay and look forward to returning soon!

Great campground

This feels like a park, super friendly hosts. It is an older park, so only up to 30 amp service. Would definitely come back!

Last Minute Trip

One of my all time favorites! Super last minute trip and the host was amazing making an exception for us having 3 dogs (2 dog limit). Military discount for nightly reservations. Nice quiet campground with fire ring and picnic table. Host was amazing as always. Unfortunately due to COVID, the tent area is closed, and due to terrible weather recently part of the campground was flooded. Site #5 is close to main office where you can get wifi if you want, we declined though. Restrooms were good. No issues. Will definitely return again soon!

Not remote but quiet

This campground is located just off of I-5 in Olympia, WA. Privately owned and very nice. Large sites, many with hookups for RVs. Pets are welcome. You can hear some road noise but it’s generally quiet. Lots of trees, sites are roomy and clean. Camp owners are extremely kind and do a wonderful job with the property.

Nice secluded accessible campsite

I really appreciated the ease of getting to the campground off of I-5 and the privacy of the heavily wooded individual sites. The best part for me was the friendliness and helpful advice about towing and backing up my trailer from the gentleman who checked us in. I had just picked my trailer up that day so I was completely new to it. Thousands of miles later I'm still hearing that solid advice in my head. Lucky for me this was my first stop!

Good base camp

This is a great campsite for a stop off or if you are looking for a few more amenities.  We stayed here last summer and enjoyed our time.  There was a burn ban so didn’t get to have a campfire but the option was nice.  Each campsite has a picnic bench and all are relatively secluded.

They have ice and wood available for purchase as well as a small general store.  At the main lodge, there is also laundry available.  One great aspect of this campground is it has a fenced in pool.  This year they are offering hayrides through the park.

The bathrooms in the park are Porto potties. There is a bathroom in the main Lodge but be prepared.
