Best Campgrounds near Olympia, WA
You'll find a good mix of camping around Olympia, Washington, where forests and beaches aren't far from the state capital. Millersylvania State Park Campground sits just nine miles outside town, with shady sites spread through the woods. The park has good hiking trails and a lake where you can swim or try to catch some fish. About 30 miles away, Dash Point State Park Campground gives campers beach access for walking the shoreline or having lunch by the water. While the sites are big, they don't offer much privacy since they're laid out in an open area. Both campgrounds have paved roads that most vehicles can handle without problems. During summer and on holiday weekends, you should reserve spots ahead of time - these places fill up fast when the weather's nice. Campers can choose between staying in the woods or heading toward the coast, depending on what they prefer.
