LegendReally cute camp spot and play area!! Pet friendly and dog park! Went here on our trip to Tacoma north of the city. Very nice beach and area!! There's also a light house to check out while you are here!
GuideViews of Adams, Helens, Hood, Jefferson. Highest camp in Washington. Nice solar toilets. The hike up is quite difficult.
GuideThis is my new favorite spot to camp in Washington. The spaces are well distributed, the location right next to the river is beautiful and the site staff were extremely gracious. I’d strongly recommend picking a number between 2 and 10 as those are the closest sights to the river if you’re looking to enjoy the sounds of the water. There is also a full bathroom at around the mid 20s if you’d prefer a functional toilet system.
GuideThe Mayfield Lake is the main attraction. Be sure to visit the day use area across the road for lake access with swimming, picnic, and a dog park on the water.
Very good privacy for the standard campsite loop. Standard campsites are either pull through or back in.
There's a trail around the edge of the lake in campsite loop. Find the point, you wont be disappointed.
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.
GuideThis place is totally disgusting and in need of repairs. False advertising, many amenities are listed on their website and are not offered, nor are in working order. Only one bathhouse, that is very dark and dirty. Rotten old stairway that leads to dog park, very unsafe. Wooden structure in children's play area is leaning and rotted. Broken metal toys. Dried grass and tall weeds everywhere, berry bushes. No maintenance. No wifi, no cable tv, no level RV spot. No public access to game room/club house area. Which looked more like their private storage area with tires. No community kitchen. Everything in total disarray and in need of repair.
GuideI love Seaquest for their beautiful campsites and the proximity to a wonderful forest to bathe in. But don't go for the RV sites, which are laid out in a parking lot setting with no real distance from neighbors and not surrounded by trees. Unless that's your jam. It was definitely not ours, tent camping alongside some friends with a trailer who liked nothing more than to hang out at said trailer, and walk through the campground to look at other.. trailers. I don't think they even stepped foot in the 7+ miles of forest trails which is a few steps away. If you can step away from the hookups and get a real campsite off the RV pad, it is a stunning experience. Each site is surrounded by trees, creating privacy and serenity. Another great option is the yurts. We stayed in Yurt 2 (the only pet friendly yurt) and loved it.
For those with RV's, trailers, campers - look into the regular sites because I think some of them even have hookups and can accommodate most sizes. Just steer clear of RV sites T1-T16.
ScoutExcellent location for those with military access to the base - active duty, retired or family. 30/50 amp hookups. Beautiful views of American Lake. Pet friendly.
Campgrounds near Eatonville provide a strategic base for outdoor adventures, positioned between Mount Rainier National Park and several lakes in the region. Located at approximately 800 feet elevation, the area experiences mild summer temperatures averaging 75-80°F during peak camping season. Winter camping remains available at several year-round facilities, though some amenities become limited during colder months.
Mountain biking access: Sahara Creek DNR Horse Camp offers trails suitable for bikers just minutes from Eatonville. "There are plenty of hikes and areas to explore, plus you can buy firewood right down the road if you want to cook or just hang out," notes Brittany S., who appreciated the campground's natural setting.
Fishing opportunities: Big Creek Campground provides access to year-round fishing. "There is tons of wildlife and lots of trails and some riverbank to explore," explains Mary C., while other campers mention the creek access as perfect for cooling off during summer visits.
Wildlife viewing: The areas surrounding Elkamp Eastcreek offer excellent wildlife spotting opportunities. "We spent 1 night at Elkamp and were sad to have to move on so quickly. It would be a great base for exploring the south side of Mt. Rainier as it is within minutes of the Nisquilly entrance," writes Shannon H., highlighting its strategic location.
Private campsites: Campers consistently praise the privacy between sites at Ike Kinswa State Park Campground. "Our site had a beautiful water view, but there was a trail that went by right next to the site limiting privacy," notes Caitlyn R., who still gave the campground five stars despite this minor drawback.
Clean facilities: The cleanliness of campground restrooms receives frequent mention. "Elkamp was very clean with the nicest campground bathrooms we have ever experienced," reports Shannon H. Similarly, at Dash Point State Park Campground, "bathrooms were always clean" according to multiple reviewers.
Creek access: Sites along creeks are particularly valued. At Big Creek Campground, "We were fortunate to snag site #2, which has easy access to the creek and a decent small swim spot to cool off on a hot day," writes Kristyn E.
Reservation requirements: Advance planning is essential for camping near Mount Rainier. "Due to COVID you have to make reservations to stay here," noted one camper at Big Creek Campground, a policy that continues at many locations during peak season.
Discover Pass needs: Sahara Creek DNR Horse Camp requires a Washington Discover Pass. "YOU NEED A WA DISCOVER PASS TO CAMP HERE!!! But it is free with the pass. And there's a gas station 5 minutes down the road in Ashford where you can buy one," advises Callie S.
Alcohol policies: Unlike many campgrounds, Camp Lakeview Resort prohibits alcohol. "This campground is on Tanwax Lake," mentions a reviewer, noting the family-oriented atmosphere contributes to this restriction.
Playground access: Dash Point State Park Campground offers recreational facilities for children. "Facilities were good and trails around are fun and easy enough for me and 2 kids. The beach and its tides are why we came," writes Ingrid M.
Swimming areas: Designated swimming zones make several campgrounds ideal for families with children. Julia B. notes that at Camp Lakeview, "A small beach with a large dock was available for use during the day as well as a boat launch and fishing dock."
Budget considerations: For families watching costs, Sahara Creek offers free camping with a Discover Pass. "Not sure why it says $30, this place is free WITH your Discover Pass, 7 day limit in a 30 day period," clarifies Fern, making it an affordable option for longer family stays.
Level sites: At Alder Lake Campground, RV campers should prepare for uneven terrain. "Our site#10 dropped 13 inches between the rear and front axle. A few Lego blocks and jack pads addressed the problem," advises Cande D., adding that "the campground is on a small hill. Few of the sites are level."
Access challenges: Some dog friendly campgrounds near Eatonville have difficult access for larger rigs. At Rocky Point Campground, Dan the host receives praise from RVers who appreciate guidance navigating the campground with larger vehicles during off-peak seasons.
Solar considerations: For RVers using solar power, site selection matters. "I depend 100% on solar. There is deep shade in all camp spots, I chose a fairly sunny spot, but it wasn't enough to charge my batteries," reports Fern at Sahara Creek DNR Horse Camp.
