Bear Creek Campground

So quiet !

This is a DNR land campground that requires a Discover Pass to stay, but you can buy a day or year pass online and just post your info on a paper in your dash. The sites are decently secluded from one another, some more than others. We got there around 2:30pm and had a bunch to choose from but by 7:30 they seemed to be full. We stayed 2 nights and although it's close to the road, there isn't much traffic noise at night, which was nice. I didn't think there were toilets, so the vault toilets were a plus, but they were absolutely disgusting & without toilet paper. The stream was a short walk down a trail right next to our site and my husband almost caught a salmon with his bare hands, it was the highlight of his stay for sure ! Sites include a picnic table and fire ring. Everyone at this site was super quiet so probably not the right place for party campers. We did hear a lot of gunshots nearby which was a little concerning since we had our doggos with us but with the Olympic national forest right there, it wasn't super surprising. Overall great place to camp on a roadtrip!
