Great place to camp. The staff is overly friendly. The place is quiet and peaceful. Will go there again. Oh, I forgot. They also have some educational session that they do periodically for the guests to learn about the camp, nature, butts, and history. Awesomeness!!! A++
Went tent camping here. And it was a very nice shady old growth forest, so even if it's really hot out it feels very comfortable. Clean bathrooms and a cool place to stay for a weekend. I'd definitely recommend it! Playground: Cool playground with some unique giant rocking horses! Restrooms: Clean restrooms. Dog-friendliness: All dogs are allowed. Picnic area: I didn't try the picnic area, but saw someone having a birthday party over there that looked very nice.
The campsites for RV's are on the east side of the highway, while the tent camping dry is on the west. The tent camping area is pretty standard for a state park. This section has a camp host and bathrooms/showers. The campground check-in is on the RV side and has it's own camp host. There is also equestrian camp sites to the east of the RV sites, with its own entrance. The east side is weirdly configured. Just to the north of the RV entrance is a small maintainance building. There is a gravel parking lot on the building's west side. The campground check-in and the only trashcan is on the building's south side. The camp host is on the east side if the building. Saying that the camp facilities are simplistic is being generous. The RV section has 4 small dirt/gravel sites next to the highway, with an additional 4 slightly larger sites $5 more expensive on the east side of the drive. Each of the 8 sites are full hookup with 20/30/50 amp electric, water, and sewer. The sites are generally level, but mostly dirt and some gravel. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table and are mostly shaded. The 2 southern sites would be difficult for many people using a travel trailer or 5th wheel because the drive is a dead end. Even the 2 sites north of those could be challanging if the 2 southern sites are in use. At the end of the drive is a large porta-potty. To the east and north of the sites is a large field, perhaps 10 acres in size. It is kept mowed. At the northeast corner of the field is horseshoe pits, but I'm not sure if they loan out horseshoes. Its amazing that the sites aren't larger and spread out more considering that they could have utilized half of the field. There are nice trails to use and the "highway" has little traffic which made camping quiet. The equestrian campground was also weird. The entrance to it and a community center is a nice paved driveway just south of the RV park's porta-potty. There is a nice paved parking lot for horse trailers, which is needed because the 6 or so equarian sites are "dry", small and designed for tents. There is little parking at the sites. There is a graveled area that could fit several 1 ton dually's, but its marked "no parking". There seems to be areas at the sites for at least a couple of horses tied up. Apparently it is park of the "experience" to park your truck and trailer up to a couple hundred yards, then put the horse tack on the horses and walk them to the site. Then pull your truck to the site to offload your tent, supplies and hay and water. I didn't notice any water troughs, but that never crossed my mind. I believe that there was a 3rd camp host next to the community center. Why the state felt it right to build a community center with a paved drive and paved parking lot but then did so little for the RV campers who pay $40-45/night should be a crime. Note that my 5th wheel is 25 foot long and the truck is a shortbed. There were branches against my roof. I couldn't move away from the tree because my RV wouldn't have been level. There are 2 more sites on this east side of the drive between my site and the dead end and porta-potty. I had to use an extender to use the sewer. if you have a 35+ RV with slideouts, you may only be able to use the site to my north where the 2 cars where parked, but you will have to park your truck or towed vehicle in front of the maintanance building. The western sites are best for small motorhomes, class B's, or small trailers. During my stay I saw a lady with a 1970-1980s travel trailer about 16 foot long, a gentleman had a teardrop trailer and full sized truck. My guess is a truck and 20 foot trailer is about all that will fit.
Stayed at group camp #1 Difficult to find it, because no one was ever at the front entrance booth so good luck finding someone to help. And when we read the printed map that's posted, campsite numbers are not even labeled on the map so you have to find the correct map online before coming. When you find group camp #1... the signage makes you question if that is actually "group camp #1" because it's only labeled as "group camp" and the reservation was printed on an index card and posted to a board at the entrance of group camp site so that's the only way we knew it was the correct site I loved how far away the group camp was from other campsites because we were able to be loud and play laser tag past quiet hour Great camp site for tents Lots of picnic tables Two water faucets No sink, so we used the faucet as a sink, so remember to pack hand soap if you're staying at the group camp #1 Downside would be the bathroom by group camp #1 because it is essentially a porta-potty We drove down to the nicer bathrooms whenever we had to go to the restroom Bathroom by kitchen shelter #2 near the wooden horse and swings -had parking for several cars to fit and large round about -women's bathroom: had one sink and 3 flushing toilets -stalls are small though so it was hard to maneuver getting in and out Bathroom by the camp host site -no official parking spots so we just parked near the firewood hut, across from where the bathroom trail was note: you can buy firewood from the camp host -gravel trail to the bathroom -much nicer bathroom than kitchen shelter #2 -women's bathroom: two sinks and 3 flushing toilets -stalls that was easy to get in and out -large shower at the back wall with free hot water For a mom with littles, knowing what the bathroom situation looks like before camping is a must, so hope my review helps:
Great place for hiking and camping. Quiet and serene setting. Grounds are well kept and taken care of. Nice grove of old growth trees.
Had an amazing weekend camping here. The hosts are super chill and the ranger only met her once was really nice also! Our site was a pretty decent size and fairly close to the restrooms which was nice! There’s trails all over and the views are excellent . We attended a little bird watching exhibit with “Robin” that was visiting from the Mt St. Helens visitor center. That was a cute little activity to do with kids. We learned about some of the many birds that you can see/hear around the park. I will say, this was one of the most peaceful, quiet, chill campgrounds we have stayed at! I would also like to note that the restrooms were always clean and the hot water gets HOT, that’s a plus. Restrooms: Always clean and the hot water gets super hot. Picnic area: Nice sizable picnic table on site. And enough ground space to lay a blanket out too.
Great park! Well maintained trails with beautiful foliage. The campgrounds are spaced out and well kept. The trees keep it feeling more private. The bathrooms are unexpectedly nice! And showers are hot! Will definitely visit again!
We had a trailer site-t7-and it was uncomfortably close to neighboring sites. I would only stay again if one of the other nearby campgrounds on the lakes had no availabilities and would not select a serviced trailer site, would rather boondock it in one of the more private forested spots. It was clean and we had no issues but rather small. We did appreciate the swings for the little to play, thanks for that! Playground: Four swings. No other equipment
Absolutely beautiful and well maintained park! I come here all the time.
This park is impeccably maintained, beautiful, quiet, and close to some great day trip sights. We went up to Mt. St. Helens and a long the way we saw skydivers, rafting, bigfoot museum, tons of fascinating geology, of course the Weyerhauser museum is a must stop. Park staff drove around selling firewood for $5/bundle in the campground. Our son appreciated the swings and wooden horses near the restrooms which were very clean and well-stocked. Our dogs were able to sniff around in the grassy common areas, shaded by tall trees. Everything is mowed and trimmed and clean. There are house shoe pits but bring your own shoes. Covered kitchen look like a fun place to escape rain and have a meal, party, or drink by a fire.
