"Set in a former logging camp above the town of Montesano, park life revolves around a large swimming and fishing lake. This site is super family friendly and pet friendly too."
"Was in spot 28 which is not on lake side. Found that there is little privacy between sites. The bathroom is showing its age though the shower is free. The campground is dog friendly."
$12 - $50 / night
"Very clean state park by the beach near Westport. Walking access to the beach. Clean restrooms and warm showers available. Sites are very tight and close to each other so privacy is at a minimum."
"Some of the spots are very close together and for some reason other campers get confused and have often walked right through my campsite. Dogs are allowed so there will be many."
"This campground is about 45 minutes south of Quinault Lake in Olympic NP. So it adds a lot of extra time and miles to explore ONP. It is about 20 minutes to the beaches, which was great."
"This place and the managers are wonderful, truly a gem hidden next to a river."
"Grayland seems to be off the beaten path when it comes to state campgrounds, only 30 minutes outside of Aberdeen. The campground is very popular but worth it for the great beach."
"My family stayed at Grayland beach, our first camping trip after moving from Minnesota to Washington."
"Like Lake Sylvia it is super family and pet friendly. The campsite is divided into two different areas...one for RVs and the other for tents."
"We camp here every few weeks to get away from home. Campers and walkers are friendly. Great handicap park."
$20 - $30 / night
"I normally try to stay away from RV parks as a tent person but this little private park surprised me. They don’t really have the daily changing business but rather long term RVers."
"There are 20 acres with trails that take you along a creek and a thick forest that includes wild berries. This is a welcome escape from the crazy world and crowded campgrounds."
"A lot of paths to walk the dogs. Areas for outdoor games in the summer."
"We had five sites all in one area near the entrance to the group camp site. The sites offered a good balance of privacy and open space. "
"The campground is clean quiet and right next to the beach. If you love the sound of the waves you will sleep well here! Our dogs love to run up and down the beaches!"
"Our Trip down the coast ended at Pacific Beach Washington, camp or rent a cottage and walk off deck to your own private ocean front spot!!"
"Well, it was February, so we drove on over to aberdeen and then ocean city to witness the Pacific."
"We were only here for one night, but it was a very nice campground that is steps away from the ocean. All of the facilities were clean and everything seemed to be well taken care of."
$50 - $135 / night
"Really adorable my dogs didn't know what to do."
"There's a stage, bar, coffee-bar, and mini surfshop all in one location!"
ScoutThe location is perfect, with an easy walk to the beach, making it ideal for those who love the ocean.
The campground offers a variety of amenities, including a pool and hot tub, which are perfect for relaxing after a day of activities. For pet owners, there's a convenient dog park where dogs can run and play.
The RV sites nice, but not very spacious. It is super nice that full hook-ups are standard. Tent sites are also available and offer a comfortable camping experience.
TravelerComfortable peaceful if it had wifi it would be perfect. The dog park is a wonderful addition.
TravelerGreat campground right before Olympic national park. Facilities are amazing and great dog park! Host was very friendly and took great care of us.
GuideYour basic KOA with the amenities: flush toilets, showers, dog park, gift shop, kids activities, etc. but comes with the price $38/night basic primitive tent camping. No complaints otherwise and very friendly staff.
GuideI'm going to say we had a great time here for our 10-day stay... partially because of the space we got... read on...
Let's just say... on your way in there may be quite the squabble when parking. The spaces are very tight at 90 degree angles to the road. This requires backing skill level 10! The north side and middle give little room for it, and the south side has an area that at least gives some wiggle room. Check there first if you're not sure of your skill. While doing this everyone seemed very friendly and accommodating. They had to do it too.
The next thing to look for... EVEN NUMBERED SPOTS! The odd numbered spots all have the sewer on the wrong side requiring a very long sewer hose extension that the hardware store nearby does have. Denis's Ace Hardware! I will say though... good luck finding an even numbered space. This place is busy, they're probably all already taken. It does seem like laziness of the park owners to not do some simple trenching and piping to fix this issue. Either way, get here at check in. The later you come the more likely you'll get the last space available.
We got lucky and parked at the end by the dog park in an odd spot. The gentleman behind us was in an even spot and had us pull into it when he left the following morning. We barely had to do any backing at all as we just drove through our old spot into his. My opinion on spots... that even numbered one across from the dog park (space 90) is the best and has a good amount of private room due to the tree there.
Now that setup is complete... the rest of the review...
The park is a little cramped but in a fantastic location! Just a quick 5 minute walk to the beach. The sunsets are beautiful! The staff were all super friendly as were every single person we met at this park. We met quite a few full timers with great information! I can't describe the facilities much as we didn't use them. Everything looked well kept though. The little dog park was a great place for our Husky and Corgi to be off leash for a bit. Plenty of state parks around and Long Beach and Astoria are cute nearby towns.
GuideSpent 7 days (max) here. Camp hosts went out of their way to make it comfortable, clean and quiet. Completely dispersed tent or rv camping with a Washington Discovery Pass ($35 year) otherwise FREE for up too 7 days. Just register campsite upon arrival at front billboard or call ahead with questions or availability. First come first serve. Entire campground has decent roads but go extra extra slow in areas. Their are also couple nice campground public toilets but NO water or power. Bring sewer if able. Pet friendly but rules strictly enforced. I gave it 5 stars due to MY stay was amazing and my dog had a good time too. Thanks Margaret McKenny Camp hosts Ginny and Steve.
GuideI was really excited about our visit to this part of Washington and the coast but the sad part is that once again there's a lot of families and kids and the beach had people who like to drive trucks on the sand doing donuts nearby.
There were great huckleberry bushes, but beware of the people who don't pick up after their pets--there was huge piles of dog doo along the shoulder where you walk to the beach trail and by the restroom where people tie dogs up and use the facilities.
The campsites are often used by people who book several sites at once for huge family gatherings so the bordering bushes that supposedly create some sense of privacy have huge holes in them--so your neighbors can hang out with you whether you want that or not.
The rangers who man the place are very young and I don't think they excel at cleaning and keeping guests inline with park rules. They dump trash, check people in, check people out, clean fire pits, change the TP and not much more. Their ranger station is so nice, maybe they would rather just stay in there.
The campground is mostly set back from the beach although the sound of the sea is still heard and that's great if you don't have a noisy loop. The walk to the trail is on a paved road, then the actual walk to the beach is long long long long. Lots of dunes, lots of soft sand and long flat little waves to walk through. You can walk a long the beach for a long time, but once again, weirdos in trucks speed by randomly and this spoils the sense of vastness we came here for.
I would not go back here again, although the folks who had sites right on the beach and in the yurts looked happy.
GuideGreat place. Great location. Pet friendly. Friendly staff. Convenient location close to everything. Condo 3 was spacious. Well kept. Clean. Just what we needed. We will definitely be back soon!
LegendThis is another great Grays Harbor County spot just south of Montesano. Like Lake Sylvia it is super family and pet friendly. The campsite is divided into two different areas...one for RVs and the other for tents. The facilities are all well maintained and the bathrooms have showers. It is a pretty quiet campground even though it is near a highway.
There are lots of spots to fish in the campground as well as the surrounding areas.
