Clean, quiet, abundant trail options

This is an sweet campground split into four areas. Each had pit toilets, sink waste receptacle, and each site has a table and fire rings. The south campgrounds both have direct river sites to camp while the north ones have a small tributary as well. You can hike directly from either loop A or B to Sol Duc falls or the lovers loop. This is a moderate hike of about 3.8 miles. Early mornings the trail heads were clear and I had the entire loop to myself to enjoy myriad birds and critters everywhere. From the day use Area thee are three trail heads with many scenic and breath taking views. There is a hot springs resort not too far down the road that is $15 for the day. It is crowded with kids on the weekend yet weekdays and early mornings (opens at 9am but when you're too hip like me and find a deadhead on staff she might let you in early too! The fee site is at the camp entrance with ample envelopes. This site is a mix of reserved and walk up. Tent sites, camper van, and full hook ups available. Temps were brisk in evenings in mid July. Was a great spot to continue to heal and fight cancer. Book selection was "How not to die" and the soundtrack was "Down to the Moon" by Andreas Vollenweider.
