Pretty great family campground

Who doesn't love Lake Cushman? 

For camping, there aren't many other options, but this place is alright. RV sites were very popular, but we had the walk-in tent sites to ourselves. The camp store is very convenient too!

Lifetime Memories

I've been camping on Lake Cushman since I was a kid. It's one of the true gems of the Olympic Peninsula. It has gotten a lot more popular in recent years, but it's still big enough to handle a lot of people. 

Lots of hiking and paddling opportunities.

Beautiful but expensive

We pulled in late and there were plenty of sites available on the holiday weekend. The sites were big and had trails to the main trail around the lake. It's a pricy place at $50/night!

Skokomish

This review is for Skokomish Park. Name changed from Cushman? Regardless, this was a wonderful place for a base camp for 5 nights. Easy access to all of Olympic. Gorgeous views! Pristine lake. Rope swing, volleyball courts, hiking trail circles the lake. Waking up to fantastic lake/mountain views every day was beyond words. Family friendly camping and clean hot showers. Would not hesitate to camp there again!
