This Campground is first come first served and offers 36 standard sites, six sites with power and water, one dump station and two restroom buildings with showers (main campground restroom includes ADA-accessible restrooms/showers). One kitchen shelter without electricity is available to campers. There are 2 loops with the utility sites near the entrance of the park. The other loop offers campsites next to the river. This campground is well maintained and very pretty and lush. Some sites are very private while others are more out in the open. The town of Forks is located 6 miles north and has a great grocery store with an Ace Hardware store next door. There is also a laundramat and car wash along with other local businesses. There are a number of restaurants including Italian, Mexican,Chinese, and a busy burger joint. We found this to be a great campground and would stay here again. I would have given it a 10 if it wasn't so close to the highway. The road noise calms down in the evening and it didn't keep us awake. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This park makes for a great base camp from which to see various parts of Olympic National Park. The restrooms are spotless. A quarter buys you 5 minutes worth of shower. The laundry room was immaculate--$1.75 dries a whole load of clothes. There is a small basketball court next to the office. The owner even backed our trailer in for us, right next to the beautiful garden plantings. If you are traveling with dogs, call ahead. They are pretty strict about dogs, which breeds, how big, and how many. Also, no tents or pop-ups allowed. There was a collection of permanent mobile homes in the back of the park--there was quite a bit of coming and going twice a day, but otherwise not a problem. And our cable hookup was really terrible--all we could get was snowy CNN. Yes, it's right on the main drag and is directly across the street from the Thriftway/Ace Hardware & a good pizza place--frankly, I thought this was a plus! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

These sites were large, grass pullthru with plenty of room between. The area next to the campground which you faced front the front of your RV was questionable but really shouldn't affect your stay. The WiFi did not work unless you were parked in a gravel site directly across from the office. The dog run was at the end of the campground and sat slightly uphill. It was large and well maintained and grassy. We found a wonderful dog daycare in the area called Rompin Room. We ended up staying two extra days because it was an easy trip to see a lot of the different areas in the Olympic National Park and the dogie daycare made it easy to explore the park without worrying about our dogs. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The owners are nice. The sites are a bit strange. In the back portion of the park you face permanent trailers and all there stuff. We stayed in the front portion of the park and it was very bright at night from the stores across the street and yes it is right off the main street, very loud from truck and racing local car owners. Would not stay here again. Loved the local sights. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
We have stayed at this park maybe three times and it works well. The people are very nice and helpful. We have always stayed in the front area of the park. It appears some are permanent living in the back, but didn't seem to be a problem. The flowers are refreshing and even tho we were first space next to highway the noise was not a problem. The restrooms and showers were old, but clean. I would have rather paid an extra dollar a night and not have to pay for shower. And a mirror or sink would have been nice in the shower area, but other than that we will be back and stay any time in the area. . We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is another favorable review. Sites near the front are gravel back-ins, those in the back are wide, grassy, level pull-throughs. Owners are friendly and helpful. We were told that Wi-Fi is best near the office, variable in the back. We were in the back, able to connect; our neighbor was not able to connect. A Good Sam park. The unsightly run-down permanent sites along the side were not a problem. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The nightly rate we paid was based on staying a week. This is a very well cared for RV Park. Close to Highway 101. Surprisingly, it was quiet. We appreciated the lovely landscaping, all the local travel information provided by the office, and enforcement of rules pertaining to pets in the RV park. The Wifi was fast, and reliable. We would highly recommend this park, and will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We left a loud (road noise) RV park on Hwy 101 in Port Angeles and were concerned that we might encounter the same situation here. No such problem. 101 is a much slower and less traveled road in Forks and we took spot 46 in the rear of the park, well away from the Highway. All the spots towards the rear are pull throughs with plenty of swing room and no obstructions. Sites are very generously wide; room for awning and another rig between each spot. Even in the rear of the park, we had good, fast access to WiFi. Good access to Olympic Natl Park (Hoh Rainforest, Sol Duc Hot Springs, and Rialto beach are all easy drives.) The owner/operators were very frendly and helpful. There is a relatively large book exchange. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I concur with other recent reviews. A delightful park with great management. We were in spot 30 which is quite a ways back towards the back of the park. Wifi worked most of the time (even when it did not, the signal was strong but I couldn't get any thruput) - when it didn't I could hook up to the motel next door. Road in front was not an issue. Real nice to have a market across the street. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
The owners were very friendly and helpful here. The campground has beautiful flower gardens and is right across the street from a little shopping mall that has a Ace hardware store, clothing store and grocery store. There is even a concrete area with basketball hoops. Wi-Fi is free and is quite good but is probably only available in the section nearest the office. The park runs in a strip with easy access for big rigs. All sites are level with the ones near the office being gravel and the ones further back grassed. The only drawback is that on the other side of the the street are older, run down mobile homes (area is not owned by this park) but we didn't notice any issues. There is some traffic noise from Hwy. 101 but the traffic thins at night. This park is about 12 miles from Rialto Beach which is just gorgeous! A definite must see. As a note keep an eye out for the sign as our gps (Garmin 330) had the wrong coordinates and put us about 1 1/2 blocks away. We were a bit concerned from earlier reviews but glad we picked this one. We enjoyed our stay and would stop here again when traveling this way. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a very clean park with super nice owners. The earlier reports about the road through the park are no big deal. It's no different than any park on a small residential street. We didn't have any problems with road noise. The wi-fi is excellent and cable is included with the price. It's very convenient to many sights and there's a great store across the street with anything you could want in it--a combo grocery, clothing, and hardware/sporting goods store. The owners have it nicely landscaped. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Good Wifi and cable hook up in office. Nice landscaping and level sites. Owners have done nice job with bad situation. They do not own land across the street and lots of local traffic right thru the middle of the campground. Not the best security situation. Some road noise in sites next to highway 101. Even with this drawback, it is best park in area. Would stay again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very friendly owners. Clean and handy on an off highway. Some long termers that speed thru the campground. Grocery store across the street. Near Olympia National Park and coast. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a great little place, right next to the Hoh Rain Forest -- wonderful location. Very quiet. Lots of wildlife -- deer and elk. The bathrooms are kind of funky (otherwise this would be a 9 or a 10). There is absolutely nothing to do out here at night (which is why we like it). The people who run the cafe and RV park are very helpful, and the food at the restaurant is excellent. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great campground among the trees, very large trees. Site was a little tight for a 34' motorhome, but manageable. You would have to be lucky to find one for a large rig and may take some time getting it in place. The place was a ghost town this late in the year and it was fantastic. Only one loop open so the closed loops made a great walking trail. Rialto Beach is nearby and was worth seeing as it was a sunny morning after a large storm with high surf crashing on the beach. I would recommend this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
National Park Service, located near end of road. Shady campground next to river and close to ocean. We especially enjoyed hikes on the beach and the northwest coast scenery. Typical of NPS, some parking spaces are tight. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
