6 Reviews

Hamma Hamma Campground, near Olympic National Forest, is a cozy spot that offers a great escape into nature. Tucked along a charming river, it’s perfect for those who enjoy a peaceful setting surrounded by beautiful trees and the sounds of the forest.

This campground features spacious sites that provide a decent amount of privacy, making it a nice choice for families or groups. Visitors have mentioned the lovely shady spots and the nearby river, which is great for dipping your toes after a long hike. As one camper noted, “Had a great time here. Nice private camp site, short walk to the river.”

If you’re into hiking, you’re in luck! Hamma Hamma is close to the Lena Lake trailhead, offering access to some fantastic trails. Campers have enjoyed exploring the area, with one reviewer highlighting the quiet atmosphere and proximity to the river. Just remember to bring your own water, as there are no hookups or potable water available on-site.

While the facilities are basic, with pit toilets that can get a bit rough during peak times, the overall vibe is friendly and laid-back. Many campers return year after year, drawn by the natural beauty and the chance to unwind in a serene environment. Whether you’re fishing for trout or hunting for mushrooms in the fall, Hamma Hamma Campground is a solid choice for your next outdoor adventure.

Lovely

Had a great time here. Nice private camp site, short walk to the river. Dipped our legs in after hiking. Restrooms were okay, by the last day they were a bit ripe, but hey...its a bathroom. Definitely plan going here again.

Small simple campground along a little river on the eastern side of Olympic NP, easy to get to. Beautiful trees and close to some nice hiking trails. It will be busy since it’s the closest Olympic NP campground to Seattle. There is a nice CCC cabin with bunkbeds that you can rent nearby. While it is absolutely beautiful, if you can drive a little further into the park you may find less crowded sites.

Fern and Moss surrounded stopover

We snagged the last spot in this campground on a Friday evening. The setting was a lovely shady forest with a nearby river. We had a nice time, the sites were spaced out fairly well, despite it being a pretty small campground. There were nice fire pits and a few tent pads per site, although ours was barely able to fit two tents. The river is very nice, but it is surprisingly difficult to access from the campground even though is only a couple dozen yards away. The bathroom was pretty smelly and the loop road was in poor repair. This campground does not post a sign out when it is full, so we had folks driving through hoping for a spot for hours into the night. A little cheaper, but no potable water. There's water available at the next campground (Lena Lake), however it was out of order when we were there. Definitely some downsides, but we had a fun time, got decent sleep, and we're content enough!

Fall chantrelles

I love coming up here in the fall to catch a few trout (it's catch and release) and look for chanterelles. It's a chilly damp area, hence all the mushrooms. It's a small campground along the forest service road.

an Olympic Peninsula Gem!

Leave early on Friday and get a spot at the Hamma Hamma Campground! You can take a day hike to Lena Lake, or just explore the river from your campsite. It's such a great campground, we try to go several times each year. On a warm summer day there are some great swimming holes that are actually warm enough to enjoy! The sites are mostly private, and large! The bathrooms are pit toilets so they can get rough during the busy summer months, and there is no drinking water available, so be sure to bring your own water. But even with the stinky pit toilets, this campground is a real gem!
