Log Cabin RV and Campground — Olympic National Park

We were fortunate to have booked this campground six months in advance, so we got a great site that was next to the water and very accessible for our kayak. The site was close to the road and there was little to no privacy. The RV dump station was really well setup and the lodge with restaurant was convenient all though we never went there. The boat launch was well organized with different rentals. The lake is amazing with visibility of at least 20 to 30 feet. The only reason we wouldn't come back here is that you cannot reserve a site and there is a high probability of getting one that would not work for us. There were sites that backed into the restrooms and showers. That would be a nightmare! If we could reserve a site, we would come back, but not knowing what we are going to get, won't take that chance. Beautiful area!

All the earlier reviews on this campground are correct. It’s cramped, with very little privacy. We laughed that it looked like we were parked at the grocery store instead of camping. The campsites on the end (21), by the lake (22-30), or by the creek (7-9) are probably the best, but still not great.

However, if you view this as a place to sleep while you explore a beautiful lake with great hiking, it becomes more palatable.

The good:

• The lake is fantastic.
• The hiking is great
• the devil’s punch bowl
• Spruce railroad trail for cycling

The okay:

• Park common areas

The bad:

• Cramped camping
• Bathrooms are very dated

I stayed here the night before they were closing for the season (lucky!) Stayed in a chalet. Minimal amenities but perhaps that’s the beauty of it. An A line cabin on this lake with minimal luxuries just appreciate the beauty of simplicity. Opening the door to this incredible glacier lake is something dreams are made of. It really humbles you and gives you gratitude.
