Trout Creek, near Skamania, Washington, is a serene spot that offers a perfect escape for those looking to unwind in nature. With its 16 campsites, many of which sit alongside a year-round creek, it’s a peaceful retreat where you can truly feel at home in the great outdoors.

This campground is all about seclusion and natural beauty. Visitors rave about the stunning old-growth forest nearby, with towering trees that take your breath away. One camper described it as “beautiful and secluded,” emphasizing that it felt like the creek was theirs alone. The lack of modern amenities like showers and water facilities means you’ll need to come prepared, but the trade-off is a tranquil experience away from the hustle and bustle.

If you’re up for some adventure, Trout Creek is just a short drive from the Sleeping Beauty trail, which offers fantastic hiking opportunities. Plus, you’re not far from Mt. Adams, where you can explore huckleberry fields and waterfalls. As one happy camper put it, this place is a “hidden local gem,” making it a great choice for those who appreciate a bit of solitude and natural charm.

Great quiet getaway near some great hiking

16 campsites, with about 6 along the year-round creek. Beautiful and quiet. The Sleeping Beauty trail is a short drive and well worth the effort. This is truly a hidden local gem and only about 20-25 minutes from the tiny community of Trout Lake, at the base of Mt. Adams. An added bonus is a short trail through an old growth forest with breathtaking trees.

Secluded Beauty

We saw only one other camper on the way in, there were no water facilitys so bring your own or use the creek, they did have pit toilets. Only stayed one night but it was beautiful.

Secluded and private

A family favorite. A quiet campsite set along Trout Lake Creek in a deeply wooded area. Road to the campground can be a bit rough, but most cars should be fine. Is filling up pretty regularly on the weekends now.

Easy, Space Available, Close to Amazing Stuff

Imagine: Friday, July 3rd. Busiest camping weekend of the year. Evening. Desperate camper checks out 4 crowded, very FULL campgrounds, including the beautiful Lower Falls. Nowhere to go and 3 friends coming the next day expecting him to have worked his campground magic. He had a profile on The Dyrt, after all. Talk about pressure. This ultimate planner is left to wander for 3 hours. It's getting dark. He's having nightmares of having to go back to civilization. He listens to calming music on his car stereo. Doesn't help at all. Enter Trout Lake Creek campground. Quiet, unassuming and, miraculously, with 3 campsites left. Desperate camper takes one... other two fill up within 15 minutes... the angels sing down from the heavens. Saved! He wakes up to find campsite is within 15 minutes of the wonderful Mt. Adams Ranger Station, a half hour away from a gorgeous hike up Mt. Adams, with nearby huckleberry fields, dispersal camping opportunities galore, waterfalls, lava fields... When his friends arrive, our desperate camper stands tall, acting like the awesome Trout Lake Creek campsite was his plan all along.
