Absolutely gorgeous campground. Lots to do with the beach and hiking trails. No nearby stores - so come prepared. Also a raccoon problem- tried stealing board games right off our table and was lucky enough to run off with a taco.

Finally camped here. We’ve been wanting to do it for a few years. Got reservation within 5 minutes of opening up on Jan 1st. Beautiful place. Well maintained. Best tide pools in WA. By far our favorite!

Truly beautiful camping area along the north coast of the Olympic Peninsula, not too far from Port Angeles. Lots of RV and tent parking spots. Coin operated showers for $0.25 per 2 minutes. Water was warm but not hot. Also have potable water, shared kitchen area, and sites with full hookups. Price for a non-resident to boondock (no hookups) was $26/night. Payment is on the honors system. Excellent trails and access to the sandy beach and tide pools.

One of the best campsites near the Olympics. Stunning oceanside views from the northern camping sites, and large plots for RV/campers. Tidal pools are especially beautiful, but use caution when descending (extremely slippery, stairs end at the beginning of tidal range). Trekking poles make it much more safe, but be aware of marine life, it's everywhere here. Expect to see sculpin, sea urchins, anenomes, hundreds of crabs, and other small ocean life. Campsites near the bluff experience more wind, don't forget to stake tents out. Restrooms are nearby and clean, and water for dishwashing (or drinking, if you bring water putification) is next door. Showers cost $0.25 per minute There's a very cool looking small island/large rock on the northern tip of the campsites; it looks a bit like the floating islands in Avatar, and is super cool. Easily accessible during low tide (tidal charts are posted on the map located near day use parking)

The Salt Creak is a great place. There is handicap parking and showers. Most camping spots are first come first get. There is a host person and rangers. There is lot to see and beach access but some areas are dangerous. At Salt Creak also just passed camp grounds is the sandybeach just a walk or drive over to it. I have always enjoyed this area. Great view of the straits and Canada.
