stayed in mid July 2019. This is a horse camp with very nice facilities for the horses if you have ‘em. I am very happy the 2 campgrounds on the main road were not options because I ended up finding this great place. Nice large sites, clean, quiet, and 2-3 bars of service! There is wonderful trail system in this park, extensive mtb, equestrian and hiking on really well kept up trails. This was a really nice find. It’s off 2 gravel roads, but google directions worked fine.

Loved this place. Perfect pull through and great hiking. We had the site next to the Pit Toilet. Two tent campers across the road. One came in around 2am and woke us up making a lot of noise and left the next morning. The other two tent campers were awesome. Dog friendly but need to keep on a leash. It rained the first day and again most of the next but we went into Olympia to see my friends son and wife and the sun was shining there. Love this place and had little Verizon signal. A lot of gravel getting to it but worth it in our 15' Jayco Swift.

The road up switches between smooth pavement and washboard gravel. My 2 GPS don't show the connecting road to the campground road. You'll have to follow the signs to get here.

Campground has 2 loops on a dead end road. This campground seems to be intended for horse trailers with pullthroughs and corrals for the horses. This makes it ideal for RVs. My 30ft motorhome found easy access. I corralled my motorcycle on the concrete pad.
Sites did not fill up over the weekend though the usual loud (country) music weekenders showed up. A couple sites seemed to have long term campers but they kept quiet to themselves.
I enjoyed good weather and very quiet and cool nights in July. Flowers were in bloom.
The real treasure of this camp is access to miles of biker/hiker/horseback trails right from the campground. Trails were in good shape and very nice through the forest. Mountain bikers from the nearby busy trailhead would come through the campground occasionally.
Heavy wooded with lots of shade means no solar to charge batteries. You might feel guilty breaking the silence to run your generator to make morning coffee.
No signs a wildlife other than chipmunks and robins and slugs.
Older pit toilets were reasonably clean and didn't smell bad. No fresh water.
There is a creek (Fall Creek?) a short hike from the campground.
Cell service black hole here. 1 bar boosted Verizon would not connect. 4 bars T-Mobile Edge.
4G service is available a short drive away with a cell tower on a nearby mountain.
I look forward to coming back to this site.
