Such a beautiful woodsy campground, steps away from the forest. Family owned & staff were so friendly and helpful! Perfect central location for seeing Olympic National Park areas & close to Town of Port Angeles. Community garden, laundry, clean showers and restrooms. Highly recommend this drama free, happy place for your home base while exploring!

We loved our stay! Booked a dry site in a small meadow for our 21’ van. Had such a great night we renewed for another. The ladies that run this place were super nice. Gave great recommendations. Can pick berries from the massive bushes. There’s even a little garden for guests with herbs and a few diff peppers. Showers were very clean. Nice hikes off the camp for short walkabouts.

This campground is just gorgeous! It's just barely off hwy 112 but it's so quiet. The owners and staff are truly wonderful. We're on a once in a lifetime camping trip and are far from home so, probably will not be back. That's a shame. Smell the trees. See the Olympic mountains. Go for a kayak paddle. You'll love it.

What a wonderful place. We stayed in one of their secluded full hook up spots, and it was well worth the extra money to have our privacy. The staff here is wonderful the facilities throughout are very nice and well taken care of. The bathrooms and laundry room are very clean. In the laundry room there is a nice seating area to rest while your clothes are in the laundry if you choose to do so. Th... What a wonderful place. We stayed in one of their secluded full hook up spots, and it was well worth the extra money to have our privacy. The staff here is wonderful the facilities throughout are very nice and well taken care of. The bathrooms and laundry room are very clean. In the laundry room there is a nice seating area to rest while your clothes are in the laundry if you choose to do so. There are many games for kids to play around the site, a lot of cool tree carvings, and just an overall welcoming atmosphere. Not your normal RV park. Finally there is a beautiful fresh garden that has all kinds of herbs and fresh lettuce and also a small greenhouse with a couple of lettuce towers. It’s also very close to downtown Port Angeles and very easy drive. There are very nice bike trails and hiking nearby which we used and also from here we visited Cape flattery, Shi Shi Beach, Lake Crescent , and hurricane Ridge. We were here for four nights.
