Kid Valley Campground is a fantastic destination for families looking for a serene and adventurous getaway. Set in a quiet forest and an old homestead, it offers a convenient base for sightseeing, hiking, and biking in the Mt. St. Helens area. 

The proximity to fishing opportunities at nearby lakes and the famous Toutle River adds to its appeal. I recently sent my 6-year-old child to Kid Valley Campground, and it was an incredible experience for him. It was his first time going away, and I gave him my iPhone to stay connected. 

He enjoyed playing Toca Boca World Mod, which kept him entertained during downtime. The weather was perfect, and he had a blast camping with his friends at night. The campground's location, adjacent to the Toutle River and a few miles from the Green River, provided excellent opportunities for salmon and steelhead fishing. 

The nearby Coldwater Lake and Silver Lake offered great fly-fishing and bass and trout fishing, respectively. In winter, the campground's proximity to the Toutle State Forest, with its 35,000 acres open to snowmobiling, makes it an excellent spot for hunting,

 cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling. Year-round elk viewing on the road to Mount St. Helens is a treat, and the nearby Winston, Toutle, Coweeman, and Margaret units offer fantastic hunting opportunities. Overall, Kid Valley Campground is a wonderful place for family camping trips. 

The combination of beautiful scenery, outdoor activities, and great weather made for an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to explore the Mt. St. Helens area.
