Check Availability"There are a lot of campsites to use and they are somewhat close together but I was not disturbed by any of my neighbors near or far during my two night stay."
"Although the Camp Ground and facilities are great at Tinkham, my advice would be to get into your lifted Off-Roader and hit the mountain roads for this camping trip of a lifetime!"
from $32 - $36 / night
Check Availability"There are several dump stations nearby. Very quiet and low key. It is situated next to a H.S. stadium so the game nights get a little bit loud but really not that bad. Showers are available too."

Check Availability"If you can look past the rundown bathrooms and strict rules about dogs and everything else you’re doing then you can appreciate the beauty of Lake Sawyer every morning."
"Beautiful scenery with green all around."
RangerThis is a nice campground we stayed at along our loop around Mt Rainier. It's a good alternative to the other National Park campgrounds (Cougar and Ohanapecosh) that seem to book up many months in advance. I found it to be quiet with nicely distanced sites. Recommended stops along the way when coming from Enumclaw -- Tipsoo Lake, Federation Forest, Skookum Falls.
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.
TravelerSo I tried booking a spot through this app, and then cashapp was pending the purchase. I ended up calling the campground and they never received my booking. So I waited about 10 min and then I seen that my money was refunded. I ended up calling the camp back and booking it through over the phone. Same price....so I don't see what discount might have done. And also this campground or the lady who answered the phone had never heard of this APP...and named a few partners they work with....this app not being one of them...so...I don't know... ANYWHO.....
Stayed one night, the site 204 was a little difficult to find. The on-site store was pretty good size, from what I saw they had camping gear and regular convenience store stuff. When we got there there was only 1 other tent/ family set up a space away. The site was In a good place, just a walk away from the river. We did have like 2 hornets make their way into our tent. I used the showers behind the dog park, which had 2 shower stalls. And was empty. Hot water instantly, cute lil set up. The campground it self was pretty big...like it was a little town...big play area for kids, lake looked big, same with dog park. Then I took a walk around on the path, and followed the river (as in picture). Quiet time at 10....woke up early and packed up...felt safe, didn't get bothered..no trouble checking In...loved it...
GuideThere aren’t many rv parks that are close (35ish mins) to Seattle but this is the best option. Office staff is friendly, bathrooms are clean, laundry is cheap ($1 wash), maintenance staff is constantly tending to the grounds, full hook ups, and cute (short) hiking paths surrounding the park. The lake is more of a murky pond and the geese are happy residents here so expect a lot of goose poop at any spot near the water. There’s also no dog park.
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.
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.

Hiking to river spots: Kanaskat-Palmer State Park offers accessible trails leading to prime water locations. "Beautiful, clean campground. Short hike to river spots that are perfect for wading or fishing. 10 minute drive from Deep Lake which is beautiful and great for swimming and paddle boarding," says Ashlie M. from Kanaskat-Palmer State Park.
Kayaking and water observation: The White River provides opportunities to watch skilled kayakers navigate challenging rapids. Campers staying at The Dalles Campground mention this activity specifically: "Access to river is from trails on the edges of the campground. The river access has a few tiny spots to play in the water but mostly the river current is too strong and fast for playing in," notes Kelly P.
Mountain access: Crystal Mountain sits approximately 20 minutes from certain campgrounds. According to Abbegail at The Dalles, "Campground is in a great spot just outside of Mt Rainier NP and at the bottom of Crystal Mountain (20 min drive to the resort village / gondola etc)."
Riverfront views: Many sites at Tinkham Campground offer premium river scenery. "The river sites sit on a bluff overlooking the White River. If you plan to charge your batteries with solar good luck as these sites are in the shade most of the day," explains Jeff C., highlighting both benefits and limitations.
Privacy between sites: The layout of most campgrounds provides good separation. "The campsites are good sized and really pretty," says Katie S. about The Dalles Campground, while Julie M. notes about Tinkham: "the sites are lovely, okay on privacy, easy walk down to the river which is amazing."
Heated facilities: Some campgrounds offer unexpected amenities during cooler weather. "This campground has great clean and heated bathrooms. Sites and roads are paved," notes Shay F., detailing the comforts at Kanaskat-Palmer State Park even during shoulder seasons.
Road noise considerations: Several campgrounds have sites affected by highway proximity. At The Dalles Campground, "The sites that were adjacent to the hwy were so exposed and close, it was almost like camping on the shoulder," warns Kelly P., adding "We didn't camp in any of those spots as our campsite was adjacent to the river but I felt sorry for the people who did."
Ranger presence: Law enforcement is active in certain areas. Kelly P. explains at Kanaskat-Palmer: "This campground is heavily patrolled by the park rangers. I usually have contact with them in my campsite at least twice a day... I have been asked by the park rangers at 10:01 p.m. to be quite at as myself and three 9 year old girls were talking (no music etc) too loud."
Seasonal challenges: Weather can affect camping experiences significantly. "We went here in October and dry camped with our 30' Motorhome... but the gravel pull through was so not level the jacks pushed the front tires 6 inches off the ground," reports Cody F. about Kanaskat-Palmer.
River safety awareness: Parents should supervise children near riverfront campsites. At The Dalles, Kelly P. cautions: "If I had small children (walking but under 4) I wouldn't stay in the sites directly along the river. The embankment is easily accessible, very steep and unstable in spots."
Kid-friendly water alternatives: For safer water access with children, consider other nearby options. "We usually take the kids to the lake at Nolte state park (approx. 3 miles away) for water play," recommends Kelly P. about Kanaskat-Palmer State Park.
Group camping considerations: Families planning larger gatherings should select appropriate campgrounds. "If you are a large group, like to stay up late and listen to music and/or party it might not be the campground for you," advises Kelly P. about Kanaskat-Palmer's strict enforcement policies.
Leveling challenges: Some sites require significant adjustment for larger vehicles. At Game Farm Wilderness Campground, visitors note the campground accommodates recreation vehicles with 18 campsites featuring water and electricity hookups, though some report uneven terrain.
Hookup availability: Electric-only sites require water planning. "Hook ups are electric only, bring your water," advises Shay F. about Kanaskat-Palmer, adding from personal experience, "The first time we went we did not know and our Basecamp's heat runs via the hot water heater. It was cold!"
Size limitations: Not all dog friendly campgrounds near Enumclaw accommodate larger RVs comfortably. Laura M. notes about Kanaskat-Palmer: "There are many pull through sites (pull along a curve next to your site, not straight pull through)," which can be challenging for longer rigs to navigate.
