Whiskey Creek Beach NW

I stayed at T9 via Airbnb in July 2024. Upon booking I sent a message ensuring that there is wifi due to working remotely,o as their listing states as an amenity, never heard back although saw it was read same day by“Justin”. The listing had this amenity listed so figured it was ok. The day of arrival I get a message saying wifi is not“guaranteed”. I expressed that if WiFi is not working I’d need to cancel as I’ve expressed upon booking I needed this for work, so it was important to me. The owners, Tim and Rachel, were extremely dismissive and condescending. Saying they will not refund for“one small amenity” and they“are not renting a wifi booth”. I expressed that this was important to me and it was in their listing. They were extremely difficult to deal with and caused A LOT of stress. Like other reviews stated, they take something wrong with their property and act like it’s the guests fault. I 100% agree that these are those kinds of people. The location is beautiful, although crowded with spots so close to each other but that’s in the pictures, so to be expected. Bathroom is a dirty pit toilet and had no toliet paper the first day, but known ahead of time it’s a porta potty. I would have considered booking again due to beach views but not with these owners. I’ve reported them to Airbnb, who confirmed they violated policy, offered me a partial refund, and sent them a message of their violation. I do not recommend unless there are new owners. They updated their listing with the WiFi issues, which clearly shows they know it’s a problem, but that was not there on my listing. Do not recommend unless new owners take over who care about their customers and take accountability.

Our family of four continued our trek out to the peninsula and made a base camp out of Whisky Creek, and we couldn’t have been more blessed with a better place! Beach access, gated community, rec area, fire pit, and picnic tables! Not to mention one of the most beautiful views we’ve ever seen! And if you still need to be connected to the modern word… Wi-Fi access is available and fast!

We stayed for 4 nights at the start of August. Our site had shade, an amazing ocean view but was off the beach. The next site (T2) was very close, but thankfully was only occupied one night of our stay. Site T3 was more private and up a bit further on the hill. This place is off the beater path, was mostly quiet and had gorgeous views and lots of options to camp. Well centered for exploring Olympic NP.

There was no one at the desk and I had to call a number to find out I had to pay online in the parking lot. The person was very helpful, but that’s why only 4 stars. I stayed in site T6 overlooking the ocean. Nice quite place!

The view was amazing the one down side no shower and the spot we had was really rocky could not put steaks for are tent in the ground

The Whiskey Creek Beach NW campground is well off the beaten track along the Strait of Juan de Fuca with views of mountainous Vancouver Island, BC. There are a variety of funky tent and RV sites and even funkier cabins. There are flush toilets, showers, water and electric hook-ups. The uncrowded RV sites come with fire pit and table. The atmosphere is faded, low-budget but the hosts and the scenery make it a pleasant experience. There were a lot of happy young families when we were here. Full hook up RV is $63/night.

Upsides: Gorgeous location, lovely host, clean, good water and electric.

If you are tent camping this place is epic (we were in rv)

Downsides: Site B1 is super unlevel. Gravel and dirt in this site is very loose as well.

Neighbor blocked ability to pull out rv when leaving, by having chairs table and slides in the safe way to leave sites. We had to make a crazy manuever to get trailer out of location.

Also, no one ever answers the phone.

Recommend mgmt keep an eye for bad neighbors.

If you enjoy a perfectly spaced concrete pads, paved roads, being close to all the chain restaurants type RV resort, this may not be for you. Otherwise if you enjoy really feeling away from the worlds chaos, being able to sit out with an amazing view and the loudest noise normally being the waves crashing, screeching of eagles and the occasional ship horn bellowing then this is a class A place! We have been all over the country and this is the place we always miss the most. You can stay at WCB in a variety of ways. Bring your own tent and stay on one of the waterside wood platforms. Bring your own RV and stay at either full hook up sites with both 30 and 50 amp available or dry camp. You can rent one of their RVs ranging from an A frame pop up to big motorhomes. There are also waterside cabins, tiny homes and a larger cabin. Really something for every one. AT&T service is decent, bounces between US and Canada towers though so be sure roaming is not an issue for your bill. The owners Tim and Rachel are absolutely great on top of everything else.

We made it an overnighter at spot T5. Our aim was to learn our new tent and gear before attempting a more involved adventure.

What a perfect place. T5 is right on the ocean, they are dog friendly and hosts Rachael and Tim are great.

We highly recommend Whiskey Creek. Nearby Port Angeles and Joyce General Store make it great!

Despite the poor weather, I couldn't have been happier with my Whiskey Creek Beach camping experience. From the views, adequately spaced tent sites, steel fire pits, potable water, picnics table, Adirondack chairs and shower access, this was a perfect getaway for this solo, 50-something, female camper, accompanied only by her chow-chow . I was able to finally fulfill my dream of camping along the shore. 

One of the amazing features for those camping at the shorefront sites (T9, T10, T12) are the elevated, 12×14 decks that serve as your tent pad; No need to worry about a tarp placement beneath the tent. Metal cleets are placed around the deck stucture that you can use as tie downs for your tent and fly. These were useful for my additional tarp as I had to contend with mostly adverse weather conditions.The hosts have also provided, for your convenience, additional tie downs in case of high winds. Side Note: with the set up I created, I never once, had to contend with tent leakage, from the top or bottom. 

There is a small, single shower hut apx. 30 yards from the tent site. It is an off the grid shower, but extremely clean, and has running hot water. The cost was $5.00 for unlimited use. The outhouse for the sites, next to the shower hut, is rather old, and was, in my opinion, the only drawback. There is, however, a newer flush toilet up a small hill near the site which I found myself gravitating to. 

The hosts were extremely helpful and responsive. The area has a secure access gate. Firewood is available for sale at a cost of $4.99. The small town of Joyce is but a 10 minute drive where you will find an extremely well stocked old timey general store, two quaint resturaunts, and a laundromat, a huge bonus as I was on an extended stay of seven days.

For those inclined to explore the region, you are well within driving distance to some of Washington's exceptiinally breathtaking hikes, including Hurricane Ridge, The Ozette Triangle, and Cape Flattery.

First time camping in the PNW and was amazing. We camped in spot T12, secluded, on the water, close access to toilets. Can pay 3/per person or 5/campsite to access shower. Site came with a platform for our tent, two chairs, and fire pit. Total access to the rocky beach shore below us. Sunsets were BEAUTIFUL. Only one complaint, and it’s not the campsites fault, is that at night the tide comes in extremely close to the campsites and the it is LOUD. Had trouble sleeping, but my partner slept like a baby.
