This is an older park with tall trees throughout. The check-in was fast and very friendly. The sites are not particularly level but livable. WiFi was acceptable but only usable for sites near the office. We only stayed here one night on our way south but seems quiet and would be a park for kids as they were many using the pool. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground is easy access from I-5, is picturesque and heavily wooded. As others have commented, it is unlike most RV campgrounds. The site are very spacious and isolated from adjacent sites mainly because it is not laid out like a grid. The downsides are, that it does not offer 50 amp service (which was a challenge when the weather outside was in the mid 90s), no wireless internet nor cable TV, and trees blocked satellite reception. It was challenging to park a 40 feet RV but should be easily accessible for smaller RVs. Others have noted that this is a good campground for children -- however, all of the playground equipment were very old and none of it suitable for our 4 year old son. This is a very unique property and with some updates of their hook-up and electrical service, this could be a first-rate campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is truly a campground and not an RV park. Each site is spacious with full hook-ups, but in the dense forest. This park was so quiet, I wondered if we were the only people there! Kind of a rustic feel to the campground, so it probably wouldn't suit those who like the 1st class, concrete pad, pull thru places. Easy access off the I-5 but no highway noise at all. There's tons for kids to do: a pool, hay rides, a paved riding track, a farm with two cute goats, some ducks and chickens, a rec hall and a covered picnic pavilion. It's really a resort RV park disguised as a campground (or is it the other way around?). We'll gladly be coming back here. My only complaint is Wi-Fi is not that easily accessible. I had something to look-up on-line and the lady in the office came to my site to give me the info after she looked it up on her computer. Now, that's service! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is without a doubt the prettiest non-public RV Park we have ever stayed at: well separated, heavily wooded, beautiful sites. We arrived right after the annual blue-grass festival in early September, right after the park had officially "closed" for the season. This park is run by the same folks who run Olympia Campground, a mile up the road, and they were VERY helpful and accommodating. There are a very limited number of sites in both parks where you can site an Internet or TV satellite dish, but they know which ones they are. The broadcast TV reception is terrible, but that is not the fault of the park. There were two goats (Bonnie and Clyde) in a fenced area on the property and evidently lots of family activities during the regular season. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Nice family campground. Pleanty of activities for kids to do. Close to I-5. Most of the campground is very shaded by tall trees. The sites had picnic tables and fire pits. Sites can be a little tight with all the trees around. We couldn't setup our awning, but it didn't matter since it was so shaded anyway. No cable TV, antenna only picked up a couple of channels, and satellite probably wouldn't work with all the trees around. Then again, you should be playing outside anyway. :-) If you have kids, they will have a good time. Nice playground and pool area. There are 3-wheel and bike rentals. There are hayrides at night as well as movies in the clubhouse. If you don't like kids or noise, this is not the place to be. You will get some traffic noise from I-5, but that never bothered me. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The site for AOR members were two linked sites, I doubt that I could have gotten out if another rig pulled in. The main problem was the noise, trains ran all night, you would have sworn that they were coming through the middle of your campsite. There appear to be only 16 sites for non-owners. The loop is not made for anything much over 32' looking at the trees on some of the tight corners you could see where there had been collisions. We crossed this campground off our list. This is one lake that should remain lost. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Membership park - they were down right rude to those using C2C, RPI, or AOR to camp. Regulated to a small area, not allowed to use most of the facilities as those are for members who BUY their spots. Railroad train is not only LOUD, but runs by every 1/2 hour. Stayed 3 days and could not take it any longer and left ahead of time. We camped here in a Motorhome.
C2C and AOR spots are close to RR Tracks. Only some sites can get free WiFi. No cable and too heavy treed for satellite service. 24hr security gate. Fitness room equipment broken. Nice pool - small hot tub. Limited laundry (2 W/D). Would use again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
There are 120 tent spaces and 48 utility spaces. The rate shown is the rate for utility spots. Some are pull through, and some are back-in. The "standard" (tent only) spaces are limited to 35 feet due to the park's tight, narrow roadways in the standard campsite section. Most of the utility spots at this state park are on paved asphalt pads. The paved pads, which are relatively level, are all "out in the open" with the pull-throughs in the center. There are a few utility spots among the trees, but those are on gravel/dirt. The "standard" spots are on dirt among the trees. Although the utility sites don't have a "defined" tent area, you could squeeze a very small tent in. This state park specifically has a rule that allows only one RV/trailer per spot. I don't know if this applies to tents. Each camping spot (to include the "standard" spots) has a fire ring and picnic table. The picnic tables appear to be made from recycled material that is pretty rugged and long lasting. To use the restrooms/shower area, you need tokens to get in the door. At state parks, I usually use my own facilities, so I didn't check the conditions of the restrooms and showers. Television reception is fuzzy via antenna if you don't have a satellite, even if you have an HD TV. There is a pay phone available if your cell phone doesn't get a signal. During the winter, the water faucets are winterized and not available for use. During winter, the only place to get potable water is near the RV dump station. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have camped here many times and enjoy Millersylvania. I do have to say the only drawback is the small aircraft that fly over from time to time... I find the hosts very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms are always clean, lots of trails to walk on and dog friendly. I go usually after the camping season is over and find it very serene and quiet. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
The site was okay. Nice little hikes around and lake access. Lake is somewhat dark / dirty. Close proximity with some tent sights exposed to others. If you are lucky you can find some shaded / private tent sites. I went there spur of the moment and got a great spot (didn't have to rely on reservation). We camped here in a Tent.
We checked for full hookup sites in "Washington State Campgrounds" Millersylvania name came up. After pulling in late in the evening we found out that the water was turned off to the sites for the winter. Would of been nice if the web site would of said something to that fact. Luckly the water in the restrooms was still on, we were able to fill all pots for washing and flushing the toilet. The lake looks full of lake grass, unless it is cleaned up during the summer I doubt we'd let our son swim in it. Looks to be a place reservation would be a must in the summer time.

Nice park with pull-throughs in the front area (big rig) and back-ins in the back part..Does need a bit of upgrading and does have some full-timers,but neat..The big trees make it like a state or NP cg. NO road noise from the freeway, near the airport tho and it is pretty easy to get too..It is the best park for traveling around the Olympia area.. All employees were very helpful and the owner loaned me a bucket of hot water to thaw out the faucets so I could fill my onboard tank because the temp never got above 28...BD. Have stayed there several times and will again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Not a bad campground heavily wooded which means that not a lot of grass in some sites but that goes with the territory. Unlike reviewed earlier some sites are pull throughs and I saw up to 42' rigs their I had no trouble with my 40' rig, these are all in the front section. I also saw very few seasonal campers. Road noise from I-5 was minimal, I am a light sleeper and had no issues with it. I would use this campground again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
A lot of long term residents in this park. I hated the fact that this park is right next to I-5. Even worse it is next to a (slight) down grade that cause you to sometime get the engine braking noise from the big rigs. The pool and restrooms are all concrete (yuck). There are no other amenities that I saw. All of the sites are back ins and are a combo of grass and gravel of average size.

I would rate this higher if the sites were more level. It's an old KOA that need more rehabbing...It is quiet with big trees and has full hu, partial and no hu sites. Some of the park road is paved and the back part isn't. Has a full gas station, convience store, game room with cable tv, propane and a dump site. I would use it again...BD..The only real problem was setting up in a 4" rainstorm and
the resulting lakes. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
