Saturday and Sunday nights in mid-August so not a lot of camping options. This camp doesn't take reservations but works on "first come, first served." Excellent, just what we need.

Arrived around noon so plenty of options to choose from. Picked a nice site with the river behind us (forgotten the number as it was 3 days ago) and spent the days fishing (without success), reading, walking around the camp and one of the trails and chatting to neighbours. Very relaxing in amongst the trees.

Saturday night the camp was full so, according to the Camp Host, a couple of RVs used 2 of the 4 overflow parking spaces.

Only drawback - No cellphone coverage

Klahowya Campground, Clallam County, WA. Klahowya (a common word for "welcome" in the Chinook jargon) is unique among the campgrounds on the Olympic Peninsula because it is not part of the National Park System, but part of the friendlier and less restrictive US Forest Service. And it really is very welcoming, with its old growth forest and a very pretty section of the Sol Duc River. Best of all, you can can actually take your dogs on the hiking trails. No "Klahowya" for you, National Park System. For more info, contact http://campeverycountywa.com/clallam-county.html
