Best Campgrounds near Toutle, WA

Spent a quiet weekend at Little Soda Springs Rd Dispersed and loved it. The area is peaceful with a nice mix of forest and open space—felt super remote with hardly anyone else around. We found a great shady spot not far from a small creek, and it was perfect for relaxing. Heads up: there’s absolutely no cell service, so make sure to download any maps or trail guides(we used an offline hiking APK) before you get there. It’s close to Mount St. Helens and Columbia River Gorge, so we got in a great day hike. Nights were cool, days were warm and bug-free. Forest service came by once, which was nice to see. You’ll need a Forest Pass.

Well made a reservation while still on the road not knowing that even though we showed up really late and the office being closed didn't think we were able to still have are site available but after looking on the office door and realizing that they had a spot for information and a map of the park it was very simple and really decently priced we didn't have a lot of money and they management was very understanding and was will to work with us they were very nice ppl and they had alot of amenities for the ppl coming to stay like onsite laundry, pool, rec room bathrooms and they are also very conveniently located for shopping and other things to do as well as restaurants. We stand off and on for atleast a month and me and my fiance really liked it and enjoyed our stay. I would recommend this place to any of my friends and family

I recently stayed at Jantzen Beach RV Park while visiting Portland, and overall, the experience was quite good. The park's location is very convenient, with easy access to downtown Portland and nearby attractions. The spacious pull-thru sites made parking my RV hassle-free, and the electric hookups worked perfectly. The facilities were mostly clean, and I appreciated the free Wi-Fi and cable TV. The heated pool and walking paths along the Columbia River were nice touches that relaxed my stay. However, the water pressure was lower than expected, which seemed to be a common issue among other guests as well. Security could be improved, especially during late hours. Although I didn’t experience any issues myself, I noticed a few concerns raised by other visitors regarding theft and late-night disturbances. The staff was polite but could have been a bit more attentive to these matters. Overall, it’s a decent spot for short stays if you plan to explore Portland, but there is room for improvement in maintenance and guest support. Read More

Absolutely loved the spot. There were about three sites. I believe from what I saw. I stayed at the first site when you first get there back there on the right hand side. It's a short hike down to the creek. It looks like there might be two walk-in campsites as well and I believe there might be one if you walk across the Creek. It's very close to trapper Creek trailhead and there is a vault toilet there. Minimal bugs didn't get any bug bites and it was in the '90s while I was there. Very little traffic. Not far from the highway just in case of emergencies. Absolutely no cell service. You must have a Northwest Forest pass or America the beautiful pass. Forest service does drive through there frequently to check

So I want to start out by saying this campground was not bad but I had the impression from the pictures I saw beforehand that the campsites were pretty well spaced out, not the case. At all. They are practically connected, only a few trees between each site. We don’t go camping to socialize, we go camping to get away from everyone and enjoy nature, that’s really hard to do when people are set up barely 30 feet from you. I want to hear birds and the trees and other nature sounds not other people’s conversations, music, cars etc. so having booked this site months in advance I was upset with the situation and lack of privacy we ended up leaving. We did go down the trail to the lower falls which were very beautiful and maybe this kind of campground with the sites all crammed together is other people’s idea of camping but not ours. I would like to add the campground host was very nice and also helpful.

Absolutely beautiful campground in Washington state nestled into the woods between Randall and Morton on the Cowlitz River. 4 loops to choose from. 2 with electric and water, 2 geared to tent or dry trailer camping. Loop A & D have utilities for camping with the water Spicket and drains in each loop. Nice, clean bathrooms with showers in every loop. Boat ramp and dump station available for campers. Recreation fields and trails nicely groomed. Very attentive staff regularly driving around cleaning and checking on the campground. I would say the only drawback is that they don’t have sewer hook ups. We stayed Friday to Monday trying to be moderately careful filling our tanks and did just fine dumping tanks on our way out. We will definitely be back to this PNW Beauty.
