Beautiful campground

Plenty of nice sites, some pull through sites as well as double sites and group sites. Bathrooms always close by, no showers. All sites have a picnic table and fire pit. If you’re lucky, you can get a site close to the creek. Nice, cool nights in the summer.

Nice little campground

Cheap, well-spaced sites, most of them shaded. Vault toilet. Great for an overnight stay!

Not worth the money

For $45 I would have expected a little bit more. Yes it was shaded and they did have showers (which cost extra), but the site was just average and there was a lot of road noise.

An oasis on a crowded peninsula

We had the misfortune of ending up on the Olympic peninsula on a summer weekend. Not a spot available anywhere. People were literally racing each other to find the last spot available. No cell service in 90% of the peninsula so you’re flying blind. Dry camping sounds great, as it is allowed in national forests, but unfortunately there are simply no spots to do it. Vegetation is so dense you have to rely on turnouts or dirt roads that are closed with a gate. We ended up at one of those. Little did we know it was a popular spot for the local youth to go ATVing and shooting. We were terrorized by motorcycles and atv’s revving their engines right next to our camper and shooting off guns until midnight. Thank God we had the luck to find a spot at Hoh Oxbow just as someone left. Two more minutes and the site would have been gone. It is peaceful, densely forested with large sites. The river is awesome! And best of all, it’s free. As long as you have a Discover pass. Only one vault toilet, no water, but hey, compared to what we went through it was heaven on earth!
