"Willaby Campground is right on Quinalt Lake in the southern part of Olympic National Park -- a great spot to hit if you're coming into the peninsula from Oregon or Southern Washington."
"This beautiful lakeside camping spot is perfect for a weekend at Lake Quinault!"
$24 - $48 / night
"Proximity to the beach makes this a necessary stop while exploring the Washington coast."
"Nestled between the highway and the ocean, this park is five stars for location, but three stars for the disparity in sites and limited bathroom facilities."
$25 / night
"Beautifully located!! Right next to a creek in the middle of the woods, but yet just a short walk away from the edge of the lake. Mountains in the distance make this an ideal location."
"You are walking distance from Lake Quinault. So you have access to get on the water and paddle away if you like. Bathrooms are clean. You are in walking distance to a small store as well."
$45 / night
"Very pretty resort on the lake and next to the worlds largest spruce tree. Plenty of trails to walk from here too."
"Good location. A hiking trail is right there next to the World's largest spruce tree. Walk from your site and get some nice time on the lake."
$35 - $90 / night
"It's a beautiful spot next to a scenic lake. There is a nice lakeside trail just behind our site, allowing us a rainforest hike without driving all the way to Hoh Rainforest."
"Coho campground is a wonderful spot but it is a 35 miles off of the highway. If you go, pack everything you need. There are no stores or gas stations once you hit the paved road to the campground."
"no plan, just hoping. chatted with the gentleman working the museum at Lake Quinalt and he recommended Gatton. great spot!"
"This 6 site campground is walk-ins only. On the south shore of Lake Quinault."
"Sites are not labeled but large and surrounded by dense trees and Moss coverage. Beautiful river runs next to the sites and several great trails take off from the campground."
"Wonderful spot to wake up next to a river. Need to be mindful of other campers in the area. Met a friendly dog. Looks like an ok place to float down the river 😉"
"This campground is one our favorites close by spots."
"Steps away from the creek feeding into lake Quinault was cold and swift. Enjoyable all together."
"It is tucked away on the western side of the Olympic Mountains, but easy to drive to. Old fashioned forest service-type campground, with lots of vegetation between camp sites for privacy. "
"About an hour on unpaved road until you get to the actual camp but the drive is gorgeous! Old growth and new baby trees line the roads and there’s about 10+ little streams along the way."
"We loved the view of the ocean and proximity to the beach, but we’ve not stay at many campgrounds where we were so close to our neighbors."
"Sites are fairly close to each other and very open. Not much trees or shade."
TravelerOkay, I'm sure the more expensive paid sites are fine. But the 'dispersed camping' is a joke. 19 dollars and the area they want you to stay in is not just 'next' to the highway. There are basically no trees in the way— it's less dispersed and more 'camping on the shoulder of a highway'.
They do say it's next to the highway in the listing, but I think they misunderstand what dispersed camping is generally understood to be.
Did it seem safe? Not really. It was unclear whether the field above the building was an option for dispersed campers, but some people appeared to have given up and had set up there.
I will give them credit for having laundry facilities and hot showers, though they seem to be intended largely as an additional cost to tack on.
Overall? Go elsewhere.
ScoutEasy pull offs, not many people here. I did read the review about the trash. It was disheartening. I’ve been keeping a grabber in my car. But still hadn’t tested it on trash. Took me maybe 2 mins, wasn’t hard and now one of these spots is clean! ✨ Would recommend to a friend!
GuideFunky little place outside the Hoh Rainforest is private, clean, funky, and easy access to the park.
ScoutLast minute found this place it was nice. Fellow campers were up late and at 10:00 PM using a chainsaw :((.
GuideThis is our all time favorite campground. Phone service is non-existent and we had att Verizon cricket and straight talk but it does have free WiFi. Only downside is we can't get our big camper in there and have to use our small one. It is the place we go to camp since we're full timers we have stayed some of all 12 months and many of the sites
TravelerMy friend and I met here and had plenty of room for my truck, 21' trailer, and a lost woman who we let pull in and sleep. It was so large that we could have added a few more vehicles. The road wasn't bad. There were blackberry plants all over the place. There was, unfortunately, a lot of trash and no Verizon service.
TravelerSite 10 und 11 bieten viel Platz, sind aber nicht direkt am Meer. Dafür weniger dem Wind ausgesetzt. Guter Ausgangspunkt z.B. zum sehr empfehlenswerten Hoh Rainforest oder Ruby Beach. Hatten top Wetter, aber teilweise starken Wind.
TravelerThis spot was really nice with a couple fire rings and excellent river access down the path. There was a man made river rock pool that was perfect for relaxing in the water. Two parallel roads passed the site so it made for some traffic, but not terribly noisy or too disturbing, although it felt a little exposed. The road to get to the site was a FS road so it was lightly trafficked; the busier road was sol duc which was also visible from the site. Lots of bugs in August, be prepared! Come early as we arrived at 2-3:00 on a Thursday and people were scoping for camping within the hour we arrived. There seem to be several sites in the area though so if this one isn’t available, don’t give up!
