Let me start by saying that the campground is nice. No electric, however they do have water spigots located throughout the campground. The one thing that really irked me was the fact that we have a 28 foot travel trailer. We had a so called "Pull through". However, it was not actually a pull through. It's basically a spot where it's wider than the road and you pull off. In order to get situated properly, it took me approximately a half hour to get my TT set where I needed it to be. Then, I had to worry if someone was going to hit my slide out, since it was sticking part way into the road. No way this campground is meant for large rigs. My advice is if you have a travel trailer longer than 24 feet, look for another campground. I walked my dogs several times around the campground and took note that we would not of had a chance to park our TT in any of the other spots. I saw another person try and park their Airstream. They told me it took them 45 minutes to park it! And it was shorter than my 28 footer. So take this advice, find another campground if you have a large rig. As far as the train noise, yes it was loud. However, the train ran about every 45 minutes or so and it didn't bother me. Another thing that really didn't bother me, but I should mention. It's in an old growth forest, and even when the sun was out, it was kind of dark in there. The spots are decently spaced and you really don't see your neighbor in most spots. I noticed that the majority of the people camping there were in tents. I see why. NO BIG RIGS!!

I'd say if you enjoy sitting by a river this is a good destination campground otherwise it's not a great destination. It's a good campground if you are here for other recreational activities or for a night while passing through.

We were camped on side with no hook up. I heard and saw a river on both sides of the camp. Their website said 18.00, I see that has been changed. There was train track, I heard the train one time. I had cell phone service. Consumer cellular, which plays off any tower.

There are two separate camping areas: riverside and woods near the railroad tracks. The Riverside camping spots cost $28/ per night and the Wood area is $25/ per night.

There are two separate camping areas: riverside and woods near the railroad tracks. The Riverside camping spots cost $28/ per night and the Wood area is $25/ per night. Each site has raised and level spaces for tents, a picnic table and fire pit. The park could use some maintenance, but overall a beautiful place to camp among old growth trees. There is potable drinking water and grey water disposal stations throughout the campground. There are about 30 campsites. We would definitely camp here again.

Love, Love, Love MoneyCreek. Been coming here for decades. Just outside of a wellstocked and easy access gas station and quaint town, sitting right on river. No electric, but RV sites too. One of my top 10 favs, will prob spend a month here over camping season. Will be there opening week. Stay here!!!

Another gem in my never-ending quest to find all of the old growth left in Washington, Money Creek is FULL of massive Doug-firs, Western redcedars and even some nice sized hemlocks. Moss and lichen all through the undergrowth, making the sites not only stunning, but really private, too.
The Hoodoo campground host--a rookie as she told me, this being her first season--was uncommonly nice (Hoodoo folks aren't mean, they're just usually really particular about every little detail). She recommended we stay in a spot that didn't have a fire pit, but I asked her if I could just try and squeeze our 50' of Airstream and van into a different, nicer spot that was only about 30' long.
"Sure, let me know how it turns out," and we managed to get her in there!
I didn't care, because I love the forest here so much, but note that there is a very close train that rolls through and it can be quite loud, and US 2 runs close by too. The traffic noise was heavy during the day but disappeared completely by 11pm or so.
Cell service was banging like a 1990's gang member.
The loop on the East Side portion of the campground, it should be noted, can be pretty tight as it lollipops at the end. We made it no problem but anything larger than us (say a 40' rockstar) might find themselves in a predicament. And if there's anywhere you don't want to find yourself, it's in a predicament.
I'm going to go find myself on a river somewhere, thanks for reading and remember, only you can reduce toilet odor. Please close the lid.
