Schafer State Park Campground

There was a huge spider at the women’s restroom door that my wife says was asking her for snacks. Other than that this place was very nice and had a ton of lush vegetation and ferns. Beautiful. Also, we watched Harry and the Hendersons here.

Just stayed at Schafer State Park and had a great visit. The ranger was so friendly and helpful when we arrived. The sites on the West side of E Satsop Rd are the original sites. We were originally reserved for 55, but ended up switching. 51-55 are pretty compact and small, but there are some really great, private sites on the West side, especially 45-50. The campground on the East side of E Satsop Rd, where the Welcome Center is, is brand new and gorgeous - sites are spacious and well spaced and the bathrooms and showers are the nicest I've ever seen at a campground. The staff and hosts are taking great care of the park and campground.

A great spot to hang out or use as a jump to the ocean beaches.  Located along the Satsop River, Schafer State Park's new East Campground offers up a well designed and quiet alternative to the older West Campground, which is already well covered by reviewers.  Addressing specifically the East, this newly opened camp shouts "Somebody finally gets it!".   WSP took a probably forlorn area of riparian land and built a camping loop that is private, quiet, suitable for both tents and RV's.  Good ADA sites.  New yet typical WSP restrooms.  Schafer as a whole might rate higher if this newer loop had any grass and the older loop more privacy.

Nicely remodeled sites. Paved RV pad, gravel tent area at each site. Fire pit was nice with a grill. Bathrooms and shower rooms were neat and tidy. Camp host was friendly and helpful. A lot of paths to walk the dogs. Areas for outdoor games in the summer.

Just about 10 miles north of highway 12 near Elma. Got a great site right by the river. Nice toilets & showers (in old building so was pleasantly surprised!) wifi by information center, cell coverage limited (1 bar t-mobile with Weboost)

The campground is nothing special. Small grounds overall, but the individual plots are big enough for your camper/tents and easy to get into. If you’re looking for seclusion or privacy, this isn’t the place. You can see everyone in the park from basically any given campsite. The bathrooms aren’t well maintained. You feel dirty coming out of there. The river is nice and there are some walking trails nearby. The water was less than a foot deep so the fishing was a bust. No cell service, but they offer wifi (unsecured network, so that’s your call). Located on major road, so you can hear everything that drives past. Overall DECENT place at best. Probably won’t return for the price.

Secluded sites not very much cell service though about a half hour from a little town had bathrooms with showers that weren't coin operated and then there was wifi if you wanted to stay close to the office area camp sites also.

This is not a very big park; the main road runs through the park, so you can hear every car and motorcycle that comes through.

The camp host/staff were absent the whole weekend of our stay, the showers and restrooms were filthy, and the dumpster was overfilled.

There were a couple of RVs with large projectors up and movies playing loud enough for the whole park to hear.

There were multiple sites with underage teenagers drinking and partying.

I’ve stayed at hundreds of campgrounds, and this is one of the worst I’ve ever experienced. I would never even consider coming back.

This campground is located along side the Satsop river. The campsites are nice and the fishing is even better.

Beautiful park, small campground. Nice hiking trails. Great access to the river. Great history to the park. Facilities are in great need of repair. The single shower is beautiful but filthy.

This is a small campground with little amenities. The tent sites are hit or miss on size. Some are way too small for a tent and some are huge and can easily fit 3 tents. Bathrooms are centrally located and clean. Fishing and playing in the river are the only activities this park has. There is a huge group camp area that is away from the rest of the camping area, so that group noises are not noticeable. No phone service, but you're camping so it isn't needed.

Whatever you do don't camp at site #2 the campground is okay but the other people where pretty much on top of us because it's all so close together. No place for a hammock and no trees at this site it's literally two logs and a bush the whole thing is gravel without a smooth spot to set up your tent. All the other sites had nice grass. They really need to get rid of number 2.

not that it matters when you camp but just so you know there is no cell phone service. Let your family know so they don't worry.
