Kalaloch Campground is on the reservation system May 23, 2024 - September 23, 2024. Important changes to the reservation booking windows: To better serve visitors, Kalaloch Campground will be releasing campsites in a series of three staggered block releases by loop. These block releases will be 6 months in advance, two weeks in advance, and 4 days in advance. A and B loop campsites will be available for reservation 6 months in advance. Campsites A14, A16, A18, and A19 will currently not be reservable due to substantial bluff erosion. If these sites are deemed safe for camping after assessment or repairs, they will be released for online reservations within the 6 month booking window. This can be as late as spring of 2024. C and D loop campsites will be available for reservations two weeks in advance. Please be aware that D Loop has experienced substantial erosion damage to the road and campsites along the ocean bluff. It is possible some popular bluff sites may be closed for the summer 2024 reservation season. E and F loop campsites will be available for reservations 4 days in advance. During the rest of the year, it is on a first-come, first-served basis. During winter (November - April), some campground loops are closed, but camping is still available. Kalaloch Campground is located on the southwest coast of the Olympic Peninsula in Olympic National Park, on a high bluff adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. Although campsites are not directly on the beach, several of them overlook the water and there is beach access within the facility. The campground is large and set amidst a peaceful, coastal forest that thrives on the region's high annual rainfall. Rain or shine, it is one of the most visited areas of the park.
Near the campground and lodge, trails and steps descend about 40 ft. to the beach. There are several beaches, tide pools, scenic overlooks and trails to explore. The Kalaloch Creek Nature Trail is a mile-long walk through the forest along Kalaloch Creek, which drains into the ocean. There are accessible lookout points at Ruby Beach and Beach 4.Kalaloch is known for birding; species such as western gulls and bald eagles are frequently sighted. Visitors may even spot a puffin. Fishing and shellfish harvesting is allowed under state and park regulations.Swimming is possible, however the Kalaloch area is known for large drifting logs that can pose a threat to swimmers as they wash ashore. Swimmers should also be aware of potentially dangerous rip tides.
Kalaloch has no shortage of natural areas to explore. The Pacific shoreline just below provides ample habitat for marine life: tide pools reveal crabs and sea urchins at low tide; sea otters float on the surface of submerged kelp beds; shorebirds nest on beaches; and whales and dolphins occasionally emerge offshore. Beyond the national park's 73 miles of coastline lie three national wildlife refuges and one marine sanctuary.
Olympic National Park has much to explore, including temperate rain forests, ocean shores, sub-alpine mountains, lakes and more. The lush Hoh Rain Forest, as well as the towns Quinault and Forks are within a 45-minute drive.Visiting the Hoh Rain ForestOlympic National Park

Sites are close to beach, beautiful. On the other hand are the sites spaced close together. The bathroom is not what you expected if you pay more than 75 dollar. You had even to pay for a shower.
Scout
We had a secluded site which is perfect for a dog. It’s quiet in the park and there’s no major highway close by. The staff is great!
Scout
Great camp ground, friendly and clean facilities. Showers are coin unfortunately. Bring a rain coat and boots because your camp will be wet constantly!
Traveler
Wether you have a beach view or not your spot will be amazing! The beach access alone is worth the higher cost. Bring quarters for hot showers.
GuideThis was my 2nd time camping here! I love how safe and family friendly it is. I camped alone with my dog and I had zero issues. The trails are fun to explore, and the camping area is well maintained.
TravelerWow - a nicely sized site RIGHT on the beach! Couldn’t ask for more.
GuideReally liked the location. Good spot to check out the park. Good store. Bathroom was a bit small.
Traveler
This campground was in the perfect location. There are sites on the Bluffs or in the forest, but either way it's a short walk to the beach. Many sites were pretty small. We had 2 large tents and that was tight, but one large tent would be fine.
GuideReally enjoyed my time here. Probably my favorite RV park that had sites this close together. Store was well-stocked, area was clean and safe. Very convenient for beach and all of Olympic. Would definitely stay here again.
Traveler
Campgrounds nearby were closed, so had to come here. Price for all sites was $72 after tax in 2024. Has electric and water, limited wifi in campground. Took site 31. Sites were close together but luckily no neighbors for us. Lake is nice, Lake Crescent is much better if you're looking for a pretty lake to swim. Big Sitka spruce nearby. 31 sites total. Some cabins and whatnot available. Expensive camp store exists.
TravelerA friend told us it was first come first served. Learned our lesson, make a reservation Get sites away from the road. It's noisy.

I stayed at T9 via Airbnb in July 2024. Upon booking I sent a message ensuring that there is wifi due to working remotely,o as their listing states as an amenity, never heard back although saw it was read same day by“Justin”. The listing had this amenity listed so figured it was ok. The day of arrival I get a message saying wifi is not“guaranteed”. I expressed that if WiFi is not working I’d need to cancel as I’ve expressed upon booking I needed this for work, so it was important to me. The owners, Tim and Rachel, were extremely dismissive and condescending. Saying they will not refund for“one small amenity” and they“are not renting a wifi booth”. I expressed that this was important to me and it was in their listing. They were extremely difficult to deal with and caused A LOT of stress. Like other reviews stated, they take something wrong with their property and act like it’s the guests fault. I 100% agree that these are those kinds of people. The location is beautiful, although crowded with spots so close to each other but that’s in the pictures, so to be expected. Bathroom is a dirty pit toilet and had no toliet paper the first day, but known ahead of time it’s a porta potty. I would have considered booking again due to beach views but not with these owners. I’ve reported them to Airbnb, who confirmed they violated policy, offered me a partial refund, and sent them a message of their violation. I do not recommend unless there are new owners. They updated their listing with the WiFi issues, which clearly shows they know it’s a problem, but that was not there on my listing. Do not recommend unless new owners take over who care about their customers and take accountability.

Nothing fancy, first come first serve. You can hear the ocean waves on the beach from anywhere in the main camp ground. Showers were alittle rough, but better than no shower!
GuideWe camped here for 3 days and spent plenty of time on Olympic National park, but we never stayed to far away to enjoy a beverage and some fresh fire cooked meals on the water!
TravelerLarge campground with a ton and of unique spots. Tree of life within 150 yard walk from anywhere in the campground. Many sites on bluffs overlooking the pacific. A few water view spots have been permanently closed for risk of collapsing. We got here around 11am on a Friday and the campground filled up very fast not long after that. Get here early!
TravelerHelpful and welcoming family staff, variety of sites to accomodate your rig, funky hillside but fully comfortable facilities, very well maintained. What's not to love here? Great location for exploring the north Olympic or prep to catch the ferry to Vancouver Island. Oh, and do not miss pizza night if you are lucky enough to be there for one! Warmest review I've ever given, well deserved.
ScoutEvery interaction with the campground staff was amazing and super accommodating
The campground it's self is great with super clean bathroom and facilities
TravelerWent in the off season and had the whole campground to ourselves which was great but the cost seemed pretty high and that the charged extra for our two little dogs (that stayed inside 99% of the time) seemed excessive. Full hookups were nice but we have stayed in much nicer resorts for the same price. Not sure if we’ll be back
GuideCamping right on the ocean it was lovely we watched the sun set it wasn't the cheapest campsite we've been to but it was worth in it had great amenities and tho it wasn't right on the ocean it was only a short walk I would love to stay again in the future
LegendThis park had a lovely view of water. Spaces were a little close as far as RVs are concerned. Clean bathrooms, level spots. Salt Creek Recreation area feet away (would prefer to camp there if you compare the grounds and RV spots)
Bathrooms clean, people friendly, spots level, had cell service. Convenient to Port Angeles.
Legend
We were fortunate to have booked this campground six months in advance, so we got a great site that was next to the water and very accessible for our kayak. The site was close to the road and there was little to no privacy. The RV dump station was really well setup and the lodge with restaurant was convenient all though we never went there. The boat launch was well organized with different rentals. The lake is amazing with visibility of at least 20 to 30 feet. The only reason we wouldn't come back here is that you cannot reserve a site and there is a high probability of getting one that would not work for us. There were sites that backed into the restrooms and showers. That would be a nightmare! If we could reserve a site, we would come back, but not knowing what we are going to get, won't take that chance. Beautiful area!
GuideMy best friend and I decided to camp away for a night. We walked the trails and found the most beautiful lookout of the Elwha River! The area was very clean, cute and friendly! Tons of families with kids around. Also it has Wi-Fi, bathrooms/showers & laundry! I will be coming back 😁✨
TravelerOur family of four continued our trek out to the peninsula and made a base camp out of Whisky Creek, and we couldn’t have been more blessed with a better place! Beach access, gated community, rec area, fire pit, and picnic tables! Not to mention one of the most beautiful views we’ve ever seen! And if you still need to be connected to the modern word… Wi-Fi access is available and fast!
TravelerWe are a family of four (Twins 5yo) who decided it’s time to experience the “Great Outdoors!” We couldn’t have asked for a better experience than Elwha campground! We were immediately met with a warm welcome and information all about the campground and places withing walking/driving distances to visit. Directions couldn’t have been more clear and welcoming! The entire campground is extremely safe and accommodates everything you would need like games, activities, hikes, washer/dryer, Club house and more! It was even a nice touch to see our fire pit filled with logs wrapped in plastic. This will be a staple for our family to come out and visit! Couldn’t have been more pleased with our experience. FYI: 2 night tent stay
Also we didn’t get a chance to try the electric bikes but that will be a must on the next visit.
GuideThis campground was awesome. The back view of the campground is forrest, swamp and mountains. The front view is beautiful ocean beach looking out at the straight of juan de fuca. You can see Vancouver Island Canada and plenty of ships passing by. This has one of the best beachcomber beaches I have seen with agates and a ton of full seashells. There is a great hiking path in the state park and if your up for it. The views were amazing. The only complaints we had were the the bugs and the modest shop which isn't really a bad thing since there is a well stocked shop in joyce just up the road. The bugs were out of control! I think it has to do with the marsh right behind the camp ground but they were the big downside to this trip. But honestly that wouldn't stop me from visiting this amazing place again.
RangerThe site was small, but the beach access was amazing.
ScoutThe campground was very clean and maintained. The staff are super responsive and helpful! Plus the view of the ocean was amazing!
