Big trees in this rustic campground. Needs new toilets and some TLC.

Stayed at site A23 right along the river and it was beautiful! About a 5 min walk from The Blue Hole, great swimming spot for really hot days.

Know this going in, it's car camping, and there are no showers. The sites are large and we'll maintained, the camp hosts are awesome, and the river is amazing. Bring floats, swim gear, and plenty of beer!

This is a beautiful park with old growth trees and a river. It is has big sites and is located near Ohanapekosh and Packwood. We really love it here! It does not currently have flush toilets but it is worth it if you can live without that feature!

Fires should be fine during your weekend. There are fire rings. Later in the year campers will have to check with the Fire Service on fires. The camp host sells wood bundles, $6 each.

How close is this campground to Mt. Rainer?

Debbie Manzinali | Aug 17, 2018
Jake Stahnke | Aug 17, 2018

Well, Google Maps could tell you that... But you're basically on the base of it. Sunrise (closed until late Spring/early Summer) and Paradise are both within 30 minutes or so. Not far in miles, just slow drive time.

Around 7pm the sun goes behind the Western hillside... Around 8 it's a good idea to grab a flashlight. I should also mention that's on a clear sky day...

How much a night or is it all free? And can we have a fire? Wanting to go this Friday and stay the weekend.

Kayla Henkel | Aug 17, 2019
Adam Swensen | Aug 17, 2019

It is $20 per night for a single tent site unless you have a National Parks Annual Pass and then there is a discount rate. You can call the forest service for information about fires, most of the time they are allowed but some bad years there have been bans. No ban when I went but that was in June.

How do you pronounce "la wis wis"?

Veronica MacDougall | Aug 17, 2018
Shay Jarm | Aug 17, 2018

We've never been too sure.. I think technically the s is supposed to be silent, but people from the area say wees, and as we currently live in WISconsin we prefer to massacre it by saying whis.. however as a general rule I like to consider the local pronunciation to be the most correct 🤔

Check out time?

Christy | Aug 17, 2018
