This is truly an oceanfront campground. If you are lucky enough to have sites 1 to 20 you will have the ocean to lull you to sleep every night. You are within 100 feet of the beach. Sites are large, paved and well maintained. One of the best state parks we have ever stayed in. Lots of visibility of park rangers for security. We camp there yearly for the Washington State Kite Festival in Long Beach. Need to plan for this as the park is in high demand during the summer. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is beach camping at its finest. Great park, great views, great lighthouse and beautiful beach with easy access. Also wonderful ranger programs. I plan to visit at least once a year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great park. Lots of trails, two beaches, two lighthouses, gun emplacements,and a great museum on Lewis & Clark. There is a small store and laundramat just before entering the main entrance. Some of the side roads in the parks don't allow RVs as no turnarounds. Adjacent Coast Guard station fairly active with a couple of helicopters flying in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I thought this was a great park and even greater as we used the Washington State Park, Senior Citizen Off Season Pass and it only cost $6. a night for a Utility space. The roads and sites were paved, and well spaced so you didn't have to look in your neighbors window, the staff was friendly and we enjoyed the beach, hiking, the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center and the lighthouses. Great place to go for Lewis and Clark buffs. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great, clean family friendly park. The facilities are kept up much like a private resort. There is hiking and biking as well as all the normal beach activity nearby. It can get a bit windy so beware the awnings if you leave them unattended. There are summer concerts and other events that celebrate the park's role in the Lewis and Clark expedition. Even in bad weather this was a great stay. Paved pads, full hookups and plenty of space between guests. This met all our expectations. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

All new utilities and bathrooms in full hookup area. Very nice state park and close to local attractions! We camped here in a Motorhome.

They have finished the upgrades in the full h/u area and it is really first class.. We have camped here before and it's still a great place to go.. There is so much to do in the area and a lot of great places to eat.. For a great eating experience,I would suggest either the ARK or the Shoalwater, especially the latter.. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We love camping at the beach, and this park is on the beach. The park rangers were very polite, helpful and are apparently law enforcement officers since they were armed. The park is enormous with two beautiful and historic lighthouses and interpretive center. The Cape Disappointment lighthouse is more impressive than the North Jetty lighthouse, both require a hike - 3/4 mi. for Cape D. and 1/4 mi. for North Jetty. We would give the park a higher rating, except the restrooms were sometimes very dirty and the sites were fairly small and packed close together; which is really odd, since the park is enormous. All that said, we'll camp here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Serviced sites 1 through 60 have all new facilities to include new pavement, showers, heads, fire pits, picnic tables, and hookups. Many miles of trail, jetty, or beach hiking/walking available to those so inclined. There is also two accessible light houses and a comprehensive interpretive center for the history buffs all within two miles of the camp sites. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is at the tail end of a major overhaul. All hookups are brand new, new picnic table, new fire pit, and all sites have been repaved. There was a new shower/restroom facility near by but we didn't use it. Our site was unbeatable with a 200 foot path directly to the huge beach. Miles of trails in the woods or on the beach. There's also a restored operational lighthouse just a couple of miles away. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This WA. State Park is over priced! The campgrounds are in round loops like a wagon wheel and dusty. No privacy what so ever. The wind howled all day and the trees didn't provide any shelter. I know now why they named it, Cape Disappointment..... We camped here in a Motorhome.

Space #22. There is alot of work being put into this park now. This site was a back-in, blacktopped with nice gravel area where the picnic table & fire pit were located. It says there was a tent pad but we could not see how a tent could fit into this space. Privacy is minimal in this park but the stay is for the beach and local towns and sights. We had early morning squals both nights we stayed and are not sure if this is normal for the area. They are building a new shower area and dump stations that were close to being finished. We enjoyed the kite flying and the town of Long Beach which is a must see. Did not have time to do much more. It is my favorite sandy beach park on the Washington Coast. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Within walking distance of beach. If you like dogs then this is the place for you! Some campers had 3-4 dogs and everybody takes their dogs to the beach. Some sites have 30 amp and water only and others have 20 amp, water & old sewer cast iron connections with no way to seal your hose. Washington state needs to upgrade this park. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Beautiful, well maintained State Park. Large level sites, some privacy. Just a short 2 minute walk from our full service site to the absolutely gorgeous beach. Lots to see and do with 2 lighthouses, the Lewis & Clark Interpretive Center and the lovely small towns of Ilwaco and Longbeach. Great small secluded beach in a small bay at the entrance to the park. Good for young children, much smaller waves. Would recommend reservations especially for full service sites. Can't wait to visit again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A big state park right on the beach. Sites are out in the open and some are much closer to the beach. Our site only had 15 amp service. The restrooms were being painted each night of our stay and were closed a lot. There is a free shuttle during the summer months for the park and to the lighthouse and Ilwaco. The Lewis & Clark Intrepretive Center at Ft. Canby (in the park) is really neat and worth visiting. We camped here in a Motorhome.

State campground near the beach. Well run and secluded sites. Only 20 amp service. We would come back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Been going here every year since about 1999. Town of Long Beach, WA has a great fireworks display on the 4th of July and is only minutes from the the Cape Disappointment (Fort Canby). Free access and parking and it's right on the beach. Get there early and get a great spot but be prepared for a LOT of smoke and noise from the fireworks display. You can drive on the beach year round and the town (Long Beach)is tourist driven but clean, fun, and family oriented. This park books up fast when reservations become available (9 months in advance of your stay) so check online often at Washington State Parks web page. Actual state park is huge, has lots of flat places for bicycling and hills for hiking. Park is clean and has that very friendly feeling and atmosphere they should have. Rangers are polite and helpful. Has a "Ranger Rick" presentation at the outdoor amphitheatre during the summer months. Have camped here in everything from a 13' Scamp to my current 27 Ft Jayco travel trailer. We'll be there again 4th of July 2004 and have 4 spaces reserved in a great loop for the family and friends going. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Stayed here in February, 2003. Greatest feature is the 2 minute walk to the beautiful beach. Sites are nice with some privacy. My only real disappointment was the pay showers. Seems cheesy. The Lewis and Clark Center was still being remodeled so we didn't get the full flavor but when done this will be a neat feature. The local town of Long Beach is also fun to visit. Good place for kids although no playground. We'll definately be back. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

What a wonderful campground! We had a one minute walk to the beach. Northhead lighthouse was the first thing we saw from the beach. Great for beachcombing, kite flying, or just sitting and admiring. Campground was great for bikes and rollerblades as well. Campground had great accessability to the Long Beach Penninsula and Astoria Bridge over to Oregon. We were very lucky to get a campsite, we started phoning to get a site in May for July. After 5 days of constant calling, we hit on a cancellation. Would go back in a Heartbeat. Loved the campground loved, Long Beach! Kudo's from Calgary, Alberta Canada!! We camped here in a camper.

Advise reservations as the CG fills nearly year round. Sites are level, paved, some pull through with fire rings and pcinic tables. Numerous hiking/biking trails lead to areas of historical significance including, old Fort Canby which was built to prevent the invasion of foreign forces. Another interesting side light is the accesability to the Columbia River Bar and the Pacific Ocean -- interesting to watch the freighters navigate the Channel to Portland. We camped here in a camper.

Nice park with great view overlooking Columbia River and Pacific Ocean. Only a few sites get the view, otherwise you need to walk around the outside of the lodge. Nice, big indoor pool (5' deep) and large hot tub that can hold at least 10 people comfortably. Sites are level gravel with grass in between. Rather soggy if its been raining alot. Nice lodge, office, store, meeting room. Putt-putt golf course looked okay. From entrance gate, its a steep (I'd guess about 8%-10%) uphill for about 200'. Make sure trailer brakes are set correctly before going back down. We heard a few lock-ups going down. Not sure if open to the public. Used to be on Coast to Coast and RPI lists, but not any more. We camped here in a camper.
