""Firstly, I just have to say what a positive and amazing experience I had at this campground. The volunteers were friendly, kind and absolutely awesome to interact with."

Some neighbor noise, sites are close, but was not busy."

ScoutThe parking lot has many signs saying no camping. On the way into the parking though, there are three spots on the side of the road. Set up camp there. Very busy road. Other comments say they went up the road aways, there was a piece of metal sticking up across the road, wasn’t going over that. It was intended to keep people out. Where we stayed was slightly sketchy, lots of trash.
TravelerWe arrived and the helpful staff was great. Told me about all the fishing spots and that was great. But when we got to the camp ground the lawn was overgrown and the put out also. The playground is fine but I'd say the playground was not sufficient for our kid that is autistic. The paperwork said we would be fined for moving the fire pit, when almost all the other patrons did this, so hopefully no fine there. The grounds are next to a farm, that brings a bad pig poop smell. I don't mind farms, but that is all u smell is poop. Pool wasn't cleaned so it was swim at ur own risk. Finally, the ppl here aren't temporary living, they have permeant campers. Fees for wifi are weird when it's free at the lounge.
TravelerThis is a gravel road through the National Forest with a bunch of pull-offs where you can camp. It was nothing special but very quiet and peaceful other than one or two cars that passed by. Felt safe as a single tent camper
TravelerOften our first or last trip of the year, due to its proximity to the greater Seattle area. Most of the folks we meet are from western Washington. Small sites with little privacy but very well kept for a heavily used park. That is the waterfront loop, the tent loop is also quite nice and a bit more private but we have not stayed there. My chief complaint is that there are no restrooms on the waterfront loop, the two closest being fully public and free to use.
Otherwise, if you can score a waterfront site, this campground earns the loyalty of everyone we meet there.
TravelerNice views and right on the water but each site is very small with a 30' total vehicle length limit. We had a 19' trailer and it was tight and had to park the truck crosswise. There is no separation between each site. Price was $30 per night plus a $2 service fee. No electrical hookups. Some other campers came in very late and did not pay. No one checked for payment. Overall felt a little sketchy.

Travelerwhen I was younger between 5 and 10 years old we practically lived at Graves Creek every weekend. We lived in Aberdeen so the trek was no biggy, plus back then you could haul a trailer in! Don't understand why the restrooms are closed or even the water source by the bathroom?
ScoutSeems like it could be a nice place to camp, although it is a city park and there are a ton of kids running around, so it’s not exactly quiet. There are several back in spots, but the camping area is roped off and the most recent signage simply states that they closed for the season September 30. Posted rate is $15 with a max of a 3 night stay, before having to vacate for 3 nights.
