    Cove RV Park & Country Store

    Typical RV Park... Great Location

    I wouldn't say there is anything spectacular about this RV park other than the fact that it is located on the edge of the Olympic National Forest next to the Hood Canal. They do have a nice little store as well.

    Gilgal Oasis RV Park

    Small very well run campground- a keeper!

    This RV Park is located in Sequim Washington. It's not too far from Port Angeles and Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic National Forest (ONF). We stayed here specifically to access Hurricane Ridge and begin our touring of Olympic National Forest. Sequim is a small town in the rain shadow of the ONF. These folks are expert operators of an RV park. They hit all the important points. They are priced very reasonably, easy to communicate with, very organized, the park is kept in pristine condition. They have  WIFI that actually works very well (even for streaming)!!! No dirt or mud here everything paved and clean. Yes the sites are close together but everything was clean and campers were respectful during our stay. The value for the dollar here is great. The facilities including a full kitchen and dining area available to campers, laundry, etc were all great.

    Chetwoot Campground

    Great Hiking!

    One thing I always look for when camping is great hikes nearby! The Chetwoot Campground has some great hiking nearby. There are some great campgrounds near Chetwoot, WA also. The campgrounds are clean and pretty good size. The campground is within the Olympic National Forest, so again there are great hikes! Most of them are not dog friendly, so make sure to look ahead and check before you go! Such a beautiful area, you don’t want to miss out. On one of the hikes we saw some mountain goats and lots of chipmunks. Highly recommend!!

    Rest-A-While RV Park

    Short trip stay

    Grounds are aged, but well maintained. Filled with full time residents. The few we met were nice and pleasant. Good for a short stay, since it's not located near a lot to do besides the Olympic National Forest and Lake Cushman.

    Willaby Campground

    Overlooking Lake Quinault

    Willaby Campground is a beautiful campground in the Olympic National Forest and overlooks picturesque Lake Quinault.  It's a small campground with just 21 sites and basic amenities.  WIth easy lake access from the day use area, I would recommend packing a kayak or paddleboard if you have one.  There's also an easy walking trail along the lake that leads directly to all of the amenities at the historic Lake Quinault Lodge.
