We love camping at Cape Disappointment! There are plenty of hiking trails and easy access to the beach. The campground is also close to Long Beach. Some sites are more private than others. We stayed in the C Loop. One side of the site was pretty private the other open. We camped with others so it was nice to be close to each other but in the trees. The group sites are in a field with limited shade.

We camp near Ocean Shores almost yearly and have been at this State Park multiple times. Sites are large but very little privacy and it’s hard to beat the awesome proximity to the beach. However, every time we camp whether it’s April, the middle of summer or Fall, the mosquitos are always present. This time they didn’t seem to but super aggressive but they were certainly an impressive size.

Awesome camping right on the river! It was so relaxing to be in the forest and wake to to the river. The river and campsite do fall between two hills so not much sun but I’m sure that is nice in summer but was chilly in April. The sites are well maintained and while there are pit toilets they were clean.

A few of the sites are close together. Best to go with friends and hope to get neighboring sites since it’s first come, first serve or hope you don’t end up next to a converted bus playing dance music until 2am (yikes!). Despite the tunes, we would definitely recommend this campground to others.

This is such a great State Park. We camped on one of the forest loops and was impressed with how big and private the site was. The restrooms were clean and easy to walk to. It was also an easy and short walk to the beach. We loved watching the sunset on the beach and then walking easily back to our camp.
