Far in the Northwestern corner of the United States lies a world of magic, splendor, and mystical beauty. Perched atop the historical Mount St. Helens, Seaquest State Park is the home-base for thousands of volcanic visitors year round. Most notable for its proximity to the Mount St. Helens Visitors Center, this park is the home base for hikers, explorers, tourists, and adventures alike. It’s not just the volcanic aftermath that makes this area so special. Even before the eruption, Gifford-Pinchot National Forest has always been known for its dense foliage, as well as its beautiful lakes, tributaries, and waterfalls.
When it comes to nearby attractions, the area is packed with them. Miles and miles of trails fork and wind throughout the park. Beyond the confines of the park’s boundaries are numerous additional trailheads, all offering something unique to those seeking it. Perhaps the most popular trail nearby is the Monitor Ridge trail. This 10 miles round trip excursion will have you climbing 2,000 vertical ft. through grassy meadows and winding forest paths. The last 1,000 feet are especially difficult due to the volcanic debris and soot that cakes your clothes. However when you finally reach the domed summit, you’ll be pleased with your efforts. Massive and expansive, the St. Helens dome is unlike any other scenic viewpoint in the US. Nowhere else can you see the true force and impact of Mother Nature’s wrath.
Nearby, the Mount St. Helens Ape Caves give visitors a chance to traverse through the labyrinth of volcanic caves left behind by magma runs during the the eruption. Today, the caves are a popular attraction for families and explorers. There’s two separate options, one which is well-lit and suited for families. The other option will send you through a pitch black adventure trekking the depths of the craggy, drippy tunnels. If planning to visit, be sure to bring a strong flashlight or kerosene lantern, as you’ll be unable to enter otherwise.
Camping in Seaquest State Park is relatively painless thanks to the 52 standard campsites, 18 partial-hookup sites, and 15 full-service sites. RVers, tent campers, van travelers, and anyone else with a form of shelter should have no issues finding somewhere to stay here. Aside from standard camping accommodations, there are also full-service Yurts available for rental, complete with heaters to stay warm if you’re visiting in the chilly months.

Beautiful, friendly staff. New hot tub. We really enjoyed our stay.
TravelerNice campground with all the amenities of a hotel. Full hook ups, showers, BBQ’s, games, hot tub, laundry facilities, game room with fireplace and pool table all with a beautiful view of the Hood Canal!
Legend
Silver lake has tent and RV sites as well as cabins to rent. Boat rentals available as well. Beautiful campground with great scenery all around. Hookups first RVers available. The showers are clean and hot.
Guide
It’s a nice little place, down on the hood canal, very cozy. We stayed down at a cabin and it was pretty empty, which was nice. The cabin was a bit older, but it has a charm to it, everyone had service there too. I’d recommend bringing a small boat out if you can, sunset on the hood canal was great, we saw some porpoises. Overall, I’d go back again if I wanted a quiet little getaway without the haste of camping.
Guide
Pros: nice cabin, somewhat secluded, hidden hill on the water next to cabins, great for kayaking, bathrooms close with showers, great easy hike from cabins to the end of the peninsula, great views Cons: limited activities in the area
GuideStayed one night in a cabin and 2 nights in the D loop. The cabin was clean and comfortable. The campsite was spacious enough to set up a canopy and 2 tents comfortably. Bathrooms were clean and conveniently located. Swimming was great!
ScoutI always stay in cabins at Ike Kinswa and more than once gear I left outside of the cabin was urine sprayed by a cat. Gear had to be thrown away as that smell does not come out. I asked the campground staff and they confirmed there is/are wild cats living in the park that spray mark their territory in the campground. Was my favorite WA state park but I won't be back.
ScoutBeautiful lake, big camp sites, kids toys, swimming area, cabins, bike paths and trails to hike
Scout
We were able to snag a space (last minute). The store and grill were well stocked, great food and service. Easy access to lake. There are cabins available as well as camping. Quiet at night too.
Guide
Great place! Very friendly next to the lake plenty of things to do walking, biking, hiking, fishing, Military museums, not to far off of I-5. Full hookups laundry shower facilities. Cabins too. Open to active military, military retirees, DoD and family members with access.
Legend
Camp Thunderbird is owned by the Boy Scouts of America and is available for public use. It is located at the base of Summit Lake, with a dock and great swimming spot. There are tent sites, adirondacks, and cabins. There is a great big field and lots of trails.
ScoutEasy to get to. Just 1 mile from the Mount St Helens visitor center. Right on Silver Lake with a perfect view of Mount St Helens. The place was clean and quiet. Employees were helpful and courteous. Lots of ways to stay. Motel rooms, cabins, RV and tent spaces.
LegendBeautiful gem of a campground within the trees and you can drive to Mt St Helen’s from here. In the summer you can canoe and fish.
Silver Lake is one of the best Large-mouth Bass fishing lakes in Washington State. We also have a lot of Crappie, Trout, Perch, Bluegill, Catfish, Warmouth, Pumpkin Seed, and two kinds of Carp.
You can launch your own boat or rent one. This is a great place to stay for visiting Mt St Helens and playing in the lake during the summer.
Prices range from $25-$40 and they also have some cabins for rent. You can rent a pontoon for $115/day. The showers and bathrooms are clean with nice hot water!
Scout
I love this cabin at Coffee Creek. The weekends I have spent here are always nourishing. This October one was particularly nourishing. The wood stove keeps you toasty in the cold, the kitchen space is perfect and simple. The windows give you incredible views of the forest. The outside porch and seating setup are lovely to drink tea at and absorb the beauty.
Scout
Only 16 RV sites, which I find is a plus. All have views of beautiful Hood Canal. There are several cabins on the property, as well as a small inn. Property is well maintained. Would have given five stars, if not for the noise from the 101, which is just feet away. All in all, a very nice campground.
Legend
Mike's Beach Resort has a campground located right on HWY 101. The highway is all that separates it from the canal. There are several RV hookup site all with fire pits. There aren't flushing toilets, just an it house. Over all it is a beautiful location. The camp office is just North of it further down hwy 101. The "resort" also has cabins and beach access.
GuideThis state park is gem. We winter camped here in February and were pleasantly surprised! The sunset over the mountains was amazing and the dogs loved swimming and fetching sticks. Nice level paved spots, some drive thru even. Clean bathrooms hot showers! Only draw back is that they are token showers. You can get tokens by the adorable lakefront cabins or main entrance. We like it so much we’re staying a second night.
Traveler
Beautiful spot, though tightly packed and crowded/noisy. We stayed in spot 59 on a Saturday night. It was rainy and the fire pit area had plenty of puddles. Lots of folks came in later in the evening with multiple cars and sat out talking; plenty of them packed up and left before 8 am. We walked the fen trail, which was spooky and different from our home of Colorado! Reservations needed. There are also glamping cabins. Nice clean bathrooms with flush toilets, water available at multiple locations, showers available with tokens.
Guide
We camped here in a early September last year. We enjoyed being so close to the water for swimming and floating. It's also just a short drive into town to get supplies. I didn't like how the water stations were closed on one side of the park.
It did rain one of the mornings and ended up with a puddle under our text but it was the last day so no loss. I think next time I'll try and rent a cabin when I stay here
Guide
They have several back-in spots, some with partial hookups and some with full hookups. Most of the spots are well-shaded from the trees. A specific area is designated for tents only, and some cabins can also be rented. It was a 5-minute walk downhill to reach the lake, which had a very long and nice boat ramp deep enough to accommodate just about any boat. Regarding cell service, I got 3 bars of LTE with my iPhone. Overall, it was a nice, quiet, shady place to visit, and I will definitely be back.
GuideThis is a nice campground a ways off of I-5. Its right on a lake, and is right between Mt St Helens and Mt Rainier. It’s also right between Portland and Seattle.
I had good cell service here. The bathrooms were nice enough with token showers. There’s lots of cabins too. The spots were semi private and spacious. I saw rangers driving around frequently, but there was no host when I was here. There was also a steady flow of people walking around enjoying the park. There’s not much around the area for supplies.
This was a cute family campground and I felt safe the entire time I stayed here.
TravelerI have camped here a number of times over the years. This is a nice woodsy campground just south of Olympia, WA located on Deep lake. It has a very old growth forest feel to it. This campground offers many activities: hiking trails, fitness trails,fishing, boat rental, and even a concession stand. The fishing is good for trout,bass, and sun fish. This park offers both hookup and non utility tent sites as well as glamping tents.
Cons: most of the hookup sites are in a field with zero privacy but there are a few that are much better like the last spot I stayed at.
The primitive sites are better but the roads are quite narrow with limited access for RV's.
The "Glamping tents"are very nice but crazy expensive at over $300 a night. Like most of the State Parks reservations book up quickly so it pays to plan ahead
Pros: fishing is pretty good even from shore. The day use area is great but pretty rustic. Lots of trails to hike but not as well marked as I would expect. Really close to Seattle so it is ideal for a weekend getaway Friday after work.
LegendThey have glamping! Or as the campground calls it: pampered camping. This is a beautiful park located on Deep Lake just outside of Olympia. The park itself is huge offering lots of options for campers. Super easy to get our trailer in and out of the spaces and there was lots of extra parking for our larger group. A quick walk around the grounds offered a nice hike and showed us some pretty awesome sites Id like to stay at in the future. They are on a progressive price, meaning depending on the site is what your price will be.
The canvas tent option was one I didn’t know about until I got there. The tents are cabin shaped and have a few chairs and BBQ grill outside it. Great option for families.
The park also offers a cottage right next to the lake. This is a nice alternative to traditional camping. One thing that was great about the park was the various kitchens around the grounds. This offers a great way for larger groups to have a set space for meals.
TravelerSites are roomy. Lots of walking and biking trails. Fishing and swimming areas. Concessions and rentals at the beach. Great staff too.

Wanted to make some headway leaving Mount Rainier towards Seattle and stay somewhere in the middle. Should have camped at Cougar Rock and driven further today. Expensive (30 plus tax) tent camping prices afford you an unlevel pad of weedy haphazardly maintained grass that's actually just the back yard of a house converted into way too many tent sites and two cabins. No fire pit, no picnic bench for my site, not raked after cutting the weeds so grass in EVERYTHING. The best part? The advertised wifi which would add some redeeming quality to the price tag doesn't reach the camping area (even though I could throw a rock to the reception desk from there) AND in the morning you have the blessing of COIN OPERATED showers after already paying for your stay. One single toilet and one single shower at the camp store for all campers.
AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS. Not worth your money when there are plenty of decently maintained forest service sites around with flat camping pads. I only give it 1 of 5 stars because I found something worth about 30 dollars in the parking lot. Otherwise it's 0/5.
Scout
Older facilities. A lot of RV sites with no water and non-functioning electric. Power issues with high demand. Pool closed due to power problem. Boat rentals not available. Just nothing to write home about!
LegendVery cute campground with great views of the lake. Comfortable, clean and spacious sites. Lots of options for your stay: motel, RV and tents. Kayak rentals for a fun day on the lake.
