"Great location, so close to the park entrance. An hour or so away from Paradise Inn and Sunrise Lodge. Hiked Silver Falls Trail which was right across from our campsite (E10)."
"Rainer is a must for anyone living in the PNW and this campground allows you to stay in the park but gives you access to plenty of trails, waterfalls and is just a short distance from entrance to the Wonderland"
$20 - $115 / night
"White pass hiking and sledding if there’s still snow. Always a great time."
"We loved that we were only 5 minutes from the entrance to Mount Rainier National Park, and about the same distance to Packwood WA for access to amenities if needed."
$20 / night
"If you are looking for an volunteer opportunity while in the park, check out the Washington Train Association also know as the WTA."
"Large campground located near the Paradise area of Mt. Rainier. Many sites tucked into large trees. Some loops close to main toad so the noise can be an issue, but overall beautiful!"
$27 / night
"We love camping around White Pass WA because it is so close to great hikes and White Pass Ski Resort. We have actually camped here in our RV and then went up skiing in the morning. Mt."
"Easy access to Rimrock lake. A littel road noise but worth the views and access to the lake. No power but several pit tiolets on site."
$24 - $48 / night
"There was a woodsy area behind the site where kids could play. The bathrooms are fancy out houses no place to wash hands. Lots of bugs in the evening."
"The lake level was pretty low when we were there so you had to walk out a bit of distance to get to the water."
"Great for kids, big playground and easy walk near lake."
"Both of our sites had gorgeous views of the lake.
The campground has a cafe and convenience store in the main building. Firewood for sale. Dump station for those without the full hookups."
"23 May 2020 - you can drive to the "Y" intersection for the camp grounds and horse camp, but the snow was so deep that walking is the only option."
"Some are nestled in the trees far away from everyone else. The campground does not have electric hook ups and it would be difficult to bring a larger camper or rv down the trail."
$25 - $45 / night
"Amazing camp site with a good amount of lakeside camps. Staying in site 41 to 44 guarantees amazing sunrise and sunset views. The lake water is crystal clear. Excellent location if you enjoy hiking."
"nice tall shade trees and beautiful access to the lake. trails are around and a large beach to relax on. sites are large and trees are close enough to hang a hammock. note: road to get here is entirely"
"Big spaces, big trees, big lake.
But if you come during the weekend, be prepared for the most inconsiderate, noisy, rude neighbors you've ever found."
"Has toilets around area, didnt check them as my rig is self sufficient. No other service though but out here it doesnt matter. Pack in pack out. Has fire rings all over!"
"The vault toilets were very well cared for and didn't have the typical smells and lingering posits that make this type of accommodation so memorable."
"We paid $10 for the site and it was right next to the river. We were tucked in. Right next to the river and the bathroom. There is even garbage dumpsters at the campground @."
GuideChecked in here after 3 weeks of travelling, before giving our rental back. The owners just seemed to glare at me on check in, were not friendly and were the only place in our travels to take a copy of our ID. They were not welcoming and we felt that they didn't want tourists there. The site is 90% residents with them taking up all the lakeside spots. Travellers get the sites by the road. There were only 6 full hook ups with the rest being dry sites. This felt like a Butlins holiday camp to us and would not recommend unless you're coming for the lake, which I admit, is very pretty. The owners don't respond to email correspondence either. After our book in experience, I didn't feel comfortable in attending to ask to cancel our last night so emailed them, as equally the office was shut, but alas I am still awaiting a response. I didn't want this site to be the end of our amazing trip so booked into a stunning hotel for our last night.
TravelerNo toilets or water, but you can get s spot right next to the river! right in the forest so lots of shade, and great for dogs as well!
LegendWe had high hopes for this USFS campground, having read that it’s on an airstrip, it sounded neat. But we decided not to stay here after we checked it out. There were lots and lots of other campers there, lots of camo, lots of large pickup trucks that don’t slow down on gravel roads, lots of “don’t tread on me” flags. We drove to the end where the bathroom is and decided to turn around, though it seems that the camp spots do continue after that point. This was on a Saturday, in all fairness, so the vibe might be different during the week.
It’s a 14 day stay limit, and other than the toilets there are no other amenities, so please pack out your trash. At the entrance it says that the following passes are honored: Annual Northwest Forest Pass, Golden Eagle Passport, and Washington and Oregon Recreation Pass. However, at the bathrooms, there’s another sign that says a $5 day use fee required. Doesn’t make sense that camping is free with certain passes but for day use it’s a $5 fee, but since we weren’t staying we didn’t look much into it. No ATV or off road riding here.
Cell signal was very weak for Verizon and non-existent for ATT. Giving it 4 stars instead of 3 because it wasn't so bad that I wouldn't be willing to check it out again the next time we're in the area.

GuideAll of the Clear Lake campgrounds are closed for two years. Sad. It’s a beautiful area though hoping to go back someday.

TravelerYou have to keep your eye out for the turn off.
The road can be a bit thin, so I would be careful with extra large vehicles. It is also a bit of a challenging road, so low clearance vehicles wouldn’t be treated well.
It’s a great location. Some spots close to the water and others in the trees.
Great views and I felt very safe as a solid traveler.
I can tell that this would get pretty full in the busy season and on weekends
GuideNot sure why some reviews are so negative, as we found this park to be really peaceful. The owner was truly helpful telling us how best to get to see Mt Rainier and what routes. It was quiet so she said park anywhere you like. The water pressure was a bit low and yes there are residents that live here, but the residents keep to themselves. It was certainly the best option of park in town and we had a very peaceful night's sleep.
TravelerThere are many campsites along NF 70. The campsite we stayed at had a fire ring and was only a short walk from the river. Plenty of spots to pitch a tent. This is a beautiful area but people leave so much trash behind. This is a pack in pack out area so be prepared to take your trash home.
