"Upon arrival, we grabbed our beverages, our chairs, and walked the short path from our campsite to the shore of Ozette Lake."
ScoutOnly a few sites and each is incredibly private. Absolutely beautiful space for tent camping or boondocking on the Olympic Peninsula. Vault toilet. Picnic table and fire pits at each site. Some pull-through RV sites. First come/first serve - I was there in a Tuesday in late May and had the campground to myself. Washington Discovery Pass required. Good T-Mobile service so you can buy the pass on-site if you need to, as long as you have the ability to write down and display your transaction number
RangerPerfect hideaway spot! Bathrooms weren’t open, but they have porta-potties.
No hookups, no dump or water plug in. They do have dumpsters around the camp.
I believe this is first come first serve. Where you drop in your payment they have pamphlets of the park available!
Trail to beach runs between sites 36 and 33, so expect some foot traffic if you're staying in those spots.
Per the The Whale Trail, South Beach is a haven for marine life and common sightings of Orcas, gray whales, and sea otters.
GuideThis road was easy getting on to with many spots available. We got one right by the river with a fire pit already included. Service is also good which is a plus. Close to Olympic NP. Many other campers here as well. Definitely would come back here and I recommend to anyone debating on where to camp outside the park. And it’s free!
TravelerDawleys is a private campground that feels like a spread out state park. Lots of space at the sites and sites are spread out. Porta potties are clean. Wood for sale. Location is great!
ScoutThis owner/management group being only concerned about money!!! Our family had a very big camping trip this Summer where we had 37 reservations to make. After making all the reservations I realized I was off by a couple of days. I made these reservations 3 months in advance. To correct the mistake I contacted two of the hosts a couple days after making the original reservation. One host simply changed my reservation to the new dates. This host charged me 67.50 for changing the reservation by one day; it was still 3 1/2 months before the stay. I accepted it because it was my mistake. My son then dislocated his knee and so we had to cancel our Summer plans. I contacted this host to explain the situation and instead of giving me a full refund, like the rest of the 36 hosts, they charged me 91.50 for cancelling 7 weeks prior to the stay. I contacted the host to explain my situation and that all others had provided a full refund and asked if they would give me a full refund because of my son's injury; they refused. I think this speaks volume for whom these individuals are and what they care about. I informed them I would be making sure I used every social media outlet to warn others about their very unfair and unethical business practices.
ScoutI came here on a solo trip (female) - stayed for a week in March of 2021. There were a few other folks camping on and off throughout the week but I felt mostly secluded at the spot I got right on the river, in the best of ways. Absolutely loved it and felt safe the whole time. You do occasionally hear the logging trucks up the road, but the river mostly drowned out the noise. Close to the town of Forks if you need to make any pitstops for supplies and a great middle point between so much exploring.
GuideClose to the ocean front sites from numbers 26-41. And this has to be the prettiest site yet. Just stunning. Saw 9 seals in the ocean the evening we got there. Such a pretty place, I can't recommend this highly enough. You may need to book.
GuideLovely ocean front sites if you're happy with dry sites. There are full hook ups however we didn't use these. There were only two of us in this large section and thanks to the lovely sunny weather we saw 6 bald eagles flying above us. Just be careful of the duck poop!
TravelerGreat spot right on the ocean. Basically your own private beach. Fire pits and bathrooms with showers. 10 RV spots and cabins available on beach and full campgrounds for tents/trailers 1/4 mile down if you don’t want to be on the ocean
