We were in a 40-footer. The sites were ample and our view was the ocean. The dogs could go on the beach with no leashes. It was a beautiful site. We would stay here again and recommend it to others. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Dirty, Dirty, Dirty...Police patrol every 10 minutes, must be a reason. It was sad to see an ocean beach campground so poorly cared for. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have to paritally agree with review #1, the staff in the store were very freindly and helpful. We didn't experience any fireworks problems. Although there were signs for it that stated they weren't allowed from feb to jun or something like that. The area was patrolled through out the night by police. Camping is different everywhere. We camped in a tent/van. Not all sites are smooth free of rocks and all that so you've got to have the right gear and be prepared. I think its pretty kid friendly. Again preperation/planning. Do your homework. We liked it and so did our kids. (ages 12-5-4-19months.) We look forward to going back again soon. We camped here in a Tent.
I agree with the last two reviews with a couple of exceptions. I found the people in the store friendly, and, the beach bums did not cause us any problems, except for the fireworks. The area is beautiful, but the campground is not! We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I can verify the previous reviewer's comments. The beach area was very nice. Sad to say with their "no rules" for this park it was not a pleasure at all to stay here. There was a large contingent of surfer people (beach bums) who were for the most part collectively vulgar, drunk and incredibly loud. The people working at check-in convenience store were the most rude indiviuals "don't like it then leave" I have come across in all my stays at RV parks. If you are a party person than this place is definately for you. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We asked about rules and regulations when we checked in and were told there were none. This perhaps is the problem. No site map, just told to find the number out there and park. Dogs run free everywhere. Fireworks day and night, usually until midnight. Tents are one thing, tarps hung up on overturned picnic tables is something else again. Although there is a sign beyond this area for paid guests, the beach drew anyone with a vehicle to surf or fireworks. Sites are uneven and the road is full of potholes. This is one of those parks that could be great with some care and attention - also security would be nice. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Owned and operated by the Quileute Indian Reservation. If you love the far NW Washington Coast you will love this RV Park. With 42 spaces, site 1 thru 18 our right on the ocean. Site 1 thru 6 are the best. In the winter you can just about have
the park to yourself. There are also very nice cabins for rent on the beach and a clubhouse / hall you can use if you need. Very well stocked General Store also offering firewood, gas station and propane. And LaPush Post office is right next-door. At 6:00pm you can go .75 mile to the Marina and buy Crab & Salmon right off the boats. A true getaway no TV reception (A clear view for satellite aim at the dead tree on the hill to the south @30.5 Direct TV) (Told they are planning to ad wifi in summer of 2005). No cell phone coverage. Pay phone at the store. Only one Restaurant it is at the Marina it is very nice. We will make Lonesome Creek one of our favorites and will go back again and again. Meet you there. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I would love to give this park a good review. Why? Location: Sea Stacks and driftwood beaches, gorgeous Olympic Peninsula. So here is the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good: One of the most beautiful beaches we have ever seen. The campground is physically a step up from the Quileute Lonesome Creek Campground down the road. There are 24 brand new (4/2009) wide full hookup campsites all with a great view and easy beach access. The bad: Someone put a lot of money into this, but it is not maintained or well staffed. Yelling Housekeepers, abrupt office staff, dirty restrooms, Laundry facility adjacent to restrooms has a washer/dryer, but no access! WI-FI is slow to frustrating (4 minutes to bring up Google). The sites have cable hookup but no cable. The ugly: No attempt to clean in the RV section during our 4 day stay. It just kills me to see such a fantastic place being run into the ground so quickly. $47 a night was outrageous given the issues. Area Notes: The area has poor cell coverage. Also the Twilight series of books/movie takes place in nearby Forks, so be aware of traffic and teenage angst/driving/noise. Bottom line – Great location, but the problem is price, customer service, and no maintenance. We camped here in a Motorhome.
