    This site provides western access to the Olympic Discovery Trail that parallels the winding course of the Sol Duc River. It is a dog-friendly trail that is also open to touring bikes, mountain bikes, stock, wheelchairs, and hikers. The trail follows the original Spruce Division Railroad Grade east for about six miles. This six miles section of trail also passes through 100 year old temperate forest stands of western hemlock and giant sword ferns. Historic area: In 1916, due to World War I, the Spruce railroad was initiated to harvest the giant spruce in the Sol Duc Valley. The properties of the wood from these giants made it suitable for airplanes, created for the war. At the turn of the century, much of the surrounding lands were early homesteads. Along this trail segment, near Camp Creek, is the start of the great 1951 Forks Fire. The fire burned over 30,000 acres from this railroad grade into Forks in less than eight hours. Amenities iclude : An accessible vault toilet, picnic tables, two stock trailer parking pads, a hitching post and a short stock trail on the north end of the trailhead to access the Olympic Discovery Trail.

        Forest Service Road 29 Dispersed Camping Loop

        Good for buses and coaches

        We just spent the last three nights across the street from this location. There are a few spots for large RVs at this loop, but if it's full, you can go about 100 yards past this loop and across the street to this location (48.0512793, -124.1110441) and there's a lot of room in a large gravel area that is perfect for buses and coaches. We were about to settle for a muddy spot in this loop but luckily we scouted ahead with the toad and found the area across the street. Not as wooded and pretty as the loop area but plenty of level space still available.

        Looks nice but NOT for big RVs

        I usually only stay at the places identified as "Big Rig Friendly" but I gave this location a shot since a review said there were buses that found a spot... we tried it in our 40ft Class A and got pretty jammed up down a narrow road, trying to follow the directions in the comment. Disconnected the toad and ran around trying to find anything that would work but there was nothing for our size. I do not recommend trying if you're in a large Class A.

        Hwy 101 - Near South Beach Campground

        Watch where you are.

        The coordinates for this location takes you into a road that is within the National Park. There is “No free camping” in the national park. Across the road you’ll find the South Beach Camping. This is a FCFS open campground provided by NPS. It’s $20/night or $10/night if you have a reciprocal pass.
        There’s toilets and a great ocean view and beach access. If you choose to park down the access road, you could potentially be ticketed. I did choose to stay 1 night at the campground. Pretty crowded by RV’s but was okay for a single night.

        The road keeps going and there are many pull offs and forks. Right on the other side of the national park road. Found a spot right by the river.

        Great options in the woods

        • 4 bars LTE with Verizon
        • several gravel roads with large open spots for decent solar/Starlink access
        • quiet, secluded
        • not super busy (2 other vans at the road I went down, but plenty of space for our campsites)
        • very pretty, quiet, mossy forest
        • a bit buggy, but not the worst
        • easy to find level spots

        Good Spot for a Night

        Couldn’t get a spot at Fairholme so I opted for this location. I only saw 2 small areas you could back in with fire pits. One closer to the 101, and one further back before you cross the bridge. Spots are muddy so I’d be cautious in regular non AWD/4WD vehicles. Secluded enough, but with easy access to the freeway just a 5 min drive down the road. There are plenty of other pullouts off the road that would suit someone just looking for a spot to sleep for the night, or van folks who are fully contained.

        My only gripe, PACK OUT YOUR TRASH. Saw numerous bags, tissues, etc. stretching down the road and one of the fire pits at the sites had toilet paper all over it. Seriously? Pack it out or dig a cat hole at least.

        questionable

        the pull offs on either side of the road have cement barriers with “no camping” and “private” spray painted onto them. fire pits are just beyond the barriers.

        Beware local idiots

        I've stayed at this spot before and it was quite lovely, local people and loging trucks drive up and down the road, but this last stay here my boyfriend and I were forced to leave due to someone setting off 3 explosives and firing a pistol 6 times on the other side of the river from us (the last explosion was thrown in the river practically at our tent). I don't know if this person even noticed (or cared to notice) the campfire smoke or the blue tarps because the site is quite exposed. Luckily forks is really close and we slept in a motel that night, but its still rude that we had to cut our trip short at all.

        Quick & Easy Private Camping spot

        We drove in about ½ a mile and decided to turn around and go back to the first spot we saw. It’s close to Hwy 101 but we were not able to hear any road noise. We love dry camping. We have a 2023 class C 30 foot motorhome. We were able to easily turn it around by doing a three or four point turn on the road in a section where it widened.

        Tree farm RV spot

        First we must note that the exact coordinates for this spot are actually NOT usable according to spray paint on boulders there that say “no camping - private”. This whole road is paved which is really nice. We found a spot just a few hundred feet off the main road that looked like an entrance/exit for logging trucks. But as it was after hours it wasn’t a problem to park there. It was level and had some gravel on it.

        Great quick spot with a river view and mountain.

        Went tent camping there on Sep 30 into Oct. 1. Had a spot right next to the river with a fire pit. Logs provided just down the road for $5. My 03 Honda Accord made it there just fine, might have to be smart with sedans as there was an interesting spot where you could scrape the underside of your car. Not really any people if you get there early.

        Lots of sites, spotty service

        Overall a pretty good spot, there are plenty of spaces for any size (I pull an 18 ft tear drop with my truck). I ended up staying in a spot further up next to a burned up trailer which wasn’t ideal but it had a nice fire spot next to the river. The internet was very spotty but was most likely due to the smoke, but was ultimately the reason I left (I work from the road). It did get busier on the weekend so if you want more options I’d suggest Sunday - Wednesday. As others have mentioned, there is a big open area with a few spots and then a fork in the road, dirt path takes you all the way up the mountain and the paved road takes you to more sites. Pretty close to popular hikes/places

        Several large spaces

        Traveled up the service road until I found a large 3 way fork in the road. To the immediate right there was a rough uphill road, no good for a trailer. Straight was a nice road with a few spots if you’re in a single car or tent. 1/4 mile up, take a right and there is a massive gravel open area where 2 people were parked with bus sized rigs. I didn’t check out the fork to the left. But there is a large campsite hard left of this intersection that I stayed in. Nice atv trails with more tent sites down in the trees.

        Great River site!

        Easy to miss pull in to the dispersed site with river views and access. Small but intimate tent site with nice fire ring. Logging season was in full swing when we stayed, so lots of trucks hauling off the mountain started early.

        Easy spot for a large rig or a big group.

        This area is down a paved fire road. The campsite is a couple miles down and directly before the road splits into two. You'll see a fire safety sign. Very quiet night, only had two vehicles pass by the entire time I was there.

        There is one area that is a large flat clearing with gravel and a firepit, and would be great if you have a big group, as it could accommodate a lot of campers. I didn't park there because there was some large puddles and mud at the entrance and I didn't want to get stuck. You could probably manage without 4x4 (I recently got stuck a month ago, and didnt want to risk it). I parked just outside the camp area on the pavement, this area would be great for an RV or Trailer because it's paved and has a fire ring. You could also go back into the woods for tent camping. I followed a few trails and saw some spots, but some of the areas were drowned or muddy.

        No services. Pack in, pack out. Verizon service was slow.

        Great spot by the river

        This is a killer camp site, we parked a 25 foot travel trailer here with a lot of room to spare. The bluff it very steep into the river so watch how close you get to the edge. As a note, it is NOT on the national forest. It’s on the nature conservancy land. The best googling I can do says it’s legal to camp here. Just FYI.

        Dispersed camping

        We camped here over Labor Day weekend.This road has a good few dispersed camping sites, We went a little past where the river site is and there were two good sized spots on the right right side of the road. It rained but there was enough tree coverage that our stuff stayed relatively dry. The site was good good although there are ATV trails near enough and a shooting range it sounded like so it might not be as quiet as others would like. Overall good base for hiking around lake crescent! There was a black bear walking around in the morning near the river also so had to be careful with our things.
