Best Tent Camping near Neah Bay, WA

There are 2 areas an RV section and a tent camping area, I drove through the RV area and it seems nice enough but there is no separation.

The tent section is really nice and while it does lack as much separation between sites the sites are very spacious, lots of room for bigger tents and most sites have enough trees that hammock camping shouldn’t be a problem. Several of the tent sites are on a bluff and you can hear the ocean all night, great white noise.

DOWN SIDE: it rained pretty hard my second day here and half my camp site was flooded! If I’d have put up a tent it would have been right where the water was pooling. Not all the sites had this problem, but the ones along the bluff seemed pretty wet.

ALSO - RACCOONS!!!! Lots of them and they will come right into your site and climb up on the table looking for stuff.

There are several ways to access a beach and tide pools during low tide!

To top it off there are flush toilets and showers!!!

Tent camping

This is such an amazing place. Shi Shi Beach was beautiful and you MUST go to Cape Flattery via Neah Bay. Find the time!

Shi Shi is part of Olympic National park. Lots of cool water rocks and features that make the west coast of Washington so darn amazing. To camp here you need a permit which can be a little difficult and requires advance planning ($10)!

This is pretty primitive camping. No firepits/grills you'll have to build your own campfire. To get here you have to go to Neah Bay.

Hobuck Beach camping is also nearby.

Spot is great, it’s a little tight for a truck but tent camping would be easy. Reception was pretty good as long as you stay near the asphalt road

We've stayed here a couple times. Love the walk-in tent sites by the lake, they’re a lot quieter than in the upper loops. Convenient to lots of trails, hot springs & the ocean.

Had a 6 RV spots and a number of tent sites. No power, no water, but there are compost toilets. Has fire rings and picnic tables.

Quite sweet spot on the river. No fee Decent 4G ATT cell coverage

$22 for a tent site but you will also have to pay or have a park pass to get into Olympic NP. Bathrooms are basic with no showers. Water spigots at restrooms. Sites are level and come with fire ring and table. Quiet and wildlife visible.

Peaceful RV and tent campground. Close to town and nearby sites. The owner, Veronica lives in the house on site. Veronica is very friendly and an awesome host. Would definitely stay there again.

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.

The campground is in a beautiful forest and the loops are relatively spread out but near enough to the hot springs resort for soaking or other amenities. Some of the spots are close together but they seem nice for RV’s, but not as private as I personally like while tent camping. The nearby hike to Sol Duc waterfalls is a nice activity while you are staying at this campground.

I don't know why I was so underwhelmed by this place, but I think it can be attributed to the multiple retail shops, haphazard RV parking and unkempt, close knit tent sites. It felt very congested and very exposed.

The things Hoh have going for it: it's a rain forest with amazing vegetation and riverside sites (that seem to fill fast).

Very close to Rialto beach, low tide is in the morning, perfect distance to get there early. Bathrooms well kept, beautiful sites, some are pull ins and some pull throughs. Also some tent sites as well. Moss covered trees and a beautiful setting. You can purchase firewood at several houses along the drive into the campground. Not many people here, the season is still a few weeks away. Loop C was temporarily closed.

These sites are situated right next to Lake Crescent. They are open from May to October and have fairly standard amenities that you would find in other primitive sites. There are picnic tables as well as fire rings at every site. There are tent sites as well as RV sites. The entire Olympic National Park area is beautiful! Be sure to give this site a stop if you want to stay in the park.

Upsides: Gorgeous location, lovely host, clean, good water and electric.

If you are tent camping this place is epic (we were in rv)

Downsides: Site B1 is super unlevel. Gravel and dirt in this site is very loose as well.

Neighbor blocked ability to pull out rv when leaving, by having chairs table and slides in the safe way to leave sites. We had to make a crazy manuever to get trailer out of location.

Also, no one ever answers the phone.

Recommend mgmt keep an eye for bad neighbors.

the rv sites are set up on a big gravel parking lot with trees on either side. the drive through sites are in the center and just gravel. back in sites are along the edge with grass and trees backing them.

this is a very large park with much nicer spaces down the hill towards the river. (despite the name, there is no river view.) these spaces have no hook ups but lots of trees and grass as well as picnic table shelters at many. they are very nice for tent camping and will suit smaller rvs and trailers.

the olympic national forest and several beaches are just down the road.

Very secluded campground deep in the forest near the hot springs resort. The RV sites are literally a gravel parking lot with people parked around the edges. Not bad, but be aware and trailer your expectations. The two tent loops are much nicer, much more nestled in the trees. Small campers and truck campers can fit in many of the tent sites, at the expense of no hookups. Little to no cell service, and no WiFi - perfect for disconnecting from the world.

We stayed in RV site 001 which is the smallest of all the RV sites, our truck camper barely fit. Next time we’d go for one of the tent loops. Lovely area!
