"There are lots of different options from tent sites to cabin rentals. Owners were very welcoming and accommodating."
"We arrived late and didn’t expect anybody to still be available. But even at almost 10 PM David was there for us and helped us find the perfect site. Everything is clean and well taken care of."
"Nice restrooms and laundry room. This park is heavily used by surfers, so as a result there’s a huge mix of rigs—from Sprinter vans and A-frame pop-ups all the way up to Class A."
"Clean, well kept, quiet area. Private beach area that you needed to wear arm bands to get to. Some spots have an ocean view. We were assigned a spot instead of getting to pick when we booked online."
"From the views, adequately spaced tent sites, steel fire pits, potable water, picnics table, Adirondack chairs and shower access, this was a perfect getaway for this solo, 50-something, female camper,"
"If you enjoy a perfectly spaced concrete pads, paved roads, being close to all the chain restaurants type RV resort, this may not be for you."
"The tent and RV sites don’t give much in the way of privacy, but we didn’t need more than just a place to sleep because there was so much to be doing everyday in the surrounding area."
"An A line cabin on this lake with minimal luxuries just appreciate the beauty of simplicity. Opening the door to this incredible glacier lake is something dreams are made of."
"Clean sites, vault toilets, potable water, picnic tables, trash service, lots of firewood for sale from the nearby farms (you‘ll need it because everything else is driftwood)."
"Most of the sites are very close together with only a short fence between them and are not very private. If you could reserve a few sites close together, it would be great for a group."
$12 - $40 / night
"There were SO MANY available campsites when we got there. About mid afternoon. The ranger was super friendly and welcoming!"
"Bottom line: I’ve only camped at 4 state parks in WA, however, this is the best one I’ve stayed at.
Pros: Secluded Campsites."

"This place is glamping at its finest. It is located at the top of the Olympic Peninsula on Lake Crescent. There is plenty to do here from fishing, cycling, boating, and hiking."
"We camped for seven days in Olympic and stayed at Lake Crescent Lodge for two nights to give ourselves a break. Lake Crescent was gorgeous."
"And I’ve noticed you guys have tent cabins on the list even though our tent cabins are still in the process of being built."
"Our first time at this state park camping. We picked the forest camping because of the trees for our hammocks. Lots of room at our site 79 for camper and truck."
"It was our first trip to an actual RV park with hookups and a lot of amenities available. It was pretty and the staff was nice and the location was perfect."
"This park is alright- not much room between sites, not super level, no sewer connection for our part of the park- but the bay and park area around it is spectacular! The RV park has nice staff too!"
"There were 3 or 4 sites listed as available in the lower campground and we found one that was perfect for us."
"Will require a State Park Pass, they do check vehicles and ticket people ($10 for day & $30 for one year.) It is a fun day try or a overnight stay."
TravelerWe had Nevas Canvas Tent #6. It was amazing! Glamping at its finest! King size bed was super comfy. We had a huge deck overlooking one of the three lakes. Our tent also had a bathroom w/ a toilet and shower, an electrIc heater, a trundle bed/couch, and electrical outlets. They currently have 6 of these Nevas tents, 16 canvas tents (w/o water/restrooms/electricity), 6 huge log cabins, 7 yurts (w small kitchens), 37 or so camping sites, 4 RV sites, and an Airstream you can rent. There is also a traditional lodge (not sure how many rooms, but it looked nice). Canvas tents and lodge come w/ breakfast. We will for sure come back!
TravelerWe stayed with several families at the group site with a mixture of trailers, tents, and tents on cars. The trailers ranged in size from 22’ to 36’ and we found ample space for each.
This site has close access to the bathrooms shared with those staying in the cabins. Peekaboo views of the water between the trees.
The site has several campsites that branch off of the road through the site which is also a trail. It has a central gravel area for a large group or trailers next to a large field area. There is no kitchen shelter, just picnic tables, fire pits, and a grill.
The site feels very private but you have people passing on the trail/road, which runs through the middle of camp, at regular intervals.
The park is full of steep hills which can make those with mobility challenges or kids wanting to ride bikes tough. The road to the beach is very steep.
Bring bug spray as mosquitoes were vicious as well as the yellow jackets.
ScoutThere are lots of different options from tent sites to cabin rentals. Owners were very welcoming and accommodating. They have a veggie garden to share, lots of outdoor activity areas and places to explore within walking distance. It’s a great base camp for exploring the peninsula. They do a good job of providing privacy with the smaller RV spaces. WiFi is good, not great but that’s not why we’re there. We will be back!
TravelerWe had an amazing stay here. The manager helped us back in and helped us get set up—it was our first trip in our new rig. Having the beach literally right there was awesome. More sand dollars than I’ve ever seen on a beach in my life. Nice restrooms and laundry room. This park is heavily used by surfers, so as a result there’s a huge mix of rigs—from Sprinter vans and A-frame pop-ups all the way up to Class A. This location is close enough to Port Angeles that we went food shopping almost each day. Great wine tasting nearby, plus Hurricane Ridge and Dungeness Spit.
TravelerThere were SO MANY available campsites when we got there. About mid afternoon. The ranger was super friendly and welcoming! The bathrooms were nice and had showers that require tokens that you can buy with your site at check in. The sites vary in size and shape but most of them are decently private/ spaced apart. The site next to us never got booked, probably because it was small, but it was nice for us because it was only a few bushes away. Sites include a picnic table and fire ring with grill grate . There was a trail to the beach not far from us and it was super nice. Although there are plenty of signs that require dogs to be on leashes most people did not adhere to those rules, so keep an eye out if you're bringing the doggos. Very family friendly, very cozy, very nice stay!
TravelerStayed in the group site with my daughter’s American Heritage Girls troop. We had 22 girls and there was plenty of room. This is a huge group site. Has running water, a couple fire pits and a bunch of picnic tables. These are lots of level spots to pitch tents. The flush toilets and shower house are in the parking area for this site so really convenient. We drove down to the beach from the site but I’m pretty sure there is a trail if you wanted to walk. We had a great time!
LegendI reserved a "family campsite" for tent camping with a friend this past week. The campground has a great location and is easily accessible from all that the San Juan Island has to offer. The sites are large and well appointed, ours was in a nice wooded area, had two picnic tables, a nice fire pit with grill and multiple flat spots for our tent. The sites don't offer a ton of privacy and we were surrounded by large groups of families, which was a bit noisy. We arrived at this campground after spending the 3 prior nights in the backcountry, so we were pretty excited to take advantage of the bathhouse and shower facilities. We may have just caught the campground at a bad time, but we were shocked to see how filthy the bathrooms and showers were. The showers were ice cold and looked like they hadn't been cleaned in weeks. The price was also rather steep ($66/night for the most basic camp site offered) but understandable considering the lack of availability for campsites during the high season on the island.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this campground to a family looking for fun activities for the kids while staying on the island. The resort also offers many other types of accommodations that I would be interested to try in the future including cabins, airstream trailers and "glamping" canvas tents!
ScoutThe folks who work here are as warm as can be. The WiFi is decent but Verizon cell service is great. It's not as wooded as one would like, but, hey this is Port Angeles. You're just a few miles from otherworldly rainforest galore. Super kid friendly with a pool and playground and bike rentals. Good laundry facilities and clean bathrooms. I stayed here a few times to rest up and get work done inbetween jaunts into the forest and it served me well.
LegendThis place is glamping at its finest. It is located at the top of the Olympic Peninsula on Lake Crescent. There is plenty to do here from fishing, cycling, boating, and hiking.
They have small cabins and a lodge with an amazing restaurant. I recommend this to friends who aren't quite the rugged camper but still want to explore the Olympic Mountains.
