Stayed one night and enjoyed the beach the campground is on. No water at sites but you can fill your tanks near dump station. Host was very friendly and spot was one row off of ocean and easy to back into. We will be back! State park did have ok wifi and coverage was decent for area.

This was a nice find for a winter time RV getaway. It's the pacific coast, so expect rain in the winter, but the location of our site was right on the edge looking out over the water. It was simply amazing.
The park has limited services, our site was power only, most sites aren't serviced at all. There is not a lot of open park space and recreation is really going to be at your site or down on the beach depending on the tide. The dump station/freshwater fill maybe a bit tough for larger rigs, our Super C coach cleared, but a larger 5th wheel pulling in to get water and return to the park may struggle.

We stayed here a few days at Xmas. Amazing ocean view and quite in the off season. The only issue we we saw were puddles here and there but everyone used their leveling blocks to get around them if needed. WIFI amazingly great but the park was half full. The bathrooms were well maintained. The check in station-office is to the right when you enter the park. You can easily get a large rig around the office if needed. You can’t beat the ocean view and only being a few feet from the beach. We had our heat on all night so the wave sounds were a little muffled.

Book ahead, this campground is popular. Excellent campground, be sure to walk over to where the river flows into the ocean as the sand changes with every wave! Clean bathrooms, showers available.
The businesses in town of Pacific Beach is mostly closed up. Gas station has a Chinese to-go that is a whole in the wall, worth it to go is what we have heard. 1.2 mile walk/drive is the brand new town of Seabrook, a town or restaurants and a grocery store. Seabrook is mostly the wealthy, a lot of weekenders from the Pugest Sound,
Pacific Beach State Park now has State Park WiFi. Slow speeds, but enough to do the basics of survival.
AT&T cell is available now! (Three Bars)
T-Mobile still is zero reception.
Check the weather often, bring your kites! There is No road noise at this campground.
Reservations until 8PM the night before your reservation starts : https://washington.goingtocamp.com/home $8 each reservation online, so in the off season you may want to just arrive at the State Park for the night, and avoid the fee.
Believe you can drive up at 230PM and often find a spot for the night in at least the off-season.
Washington State Parks offers a 65+ pass each year ( $75 year) from Oct 1 - May 1. [April is not weekends.] Camping is free, $10 a night for electrical/etc if available at your spot. Sites here only have electrical though.
OFF-SEASON SENIOR CITIZEN PASS - $75
This pass offers free nightly camping or moorage from Oct. 1 to March 31, and Sunday through Thursday in April. There is a $10 per-night fee for utility sites. Passes are available for $75 for Washington state residents 62 years and older.
Washington State Resident is defined as a resident of Washington state for at least the past three consecutive months. Dual-state residency will not be considered.
https://parks.state.wa.us/DocumentCenter/View/813/Off-season-senior-citizen-pass-application-PDF?bidId=
Pass is mailed to you within a few days of receipt by Washington Parks. Pays for itself in a couple nights if you enjoy off season camping like we do!

I am not sure how this isn't a more popular campground. We came through here from Astoria on our way to Port Angles and we really wished we would have stayed for longer. GREAT location. What I mean by great location, I mean there are absolutely nothing around except for an amazing beach. We stayed at a primitive site next to the beach and it was awesome. Sites and campground were well kept. The people that stay here all fly kites and it is truly a site to see. The check-in process was a little weird but I got over it fast. You have to go to the building that you would normally check-in and use the phone to check-in. There are parks people that come by several times a day. They do have showers that are in great working order and are clean. The showers do take special coins purchased from the same place you checked in. My wife and kids all agree that this was one our favorite campgrounds. If we are ever back through this area we will make a special trip for this campground.

This spot was recommended to us by a friend but it is not the type of campsite we usually stay at. Sites are all wide open with no trees/foliage for screening and close together.

On the positive side, the restrooms were clean, there are showers (must buy tokens), and there was free wi-fi!

You're camping right on the beach, sites are angled the correct direction for most Airstream windows, with unobstructed views, and yet you're close to town for groceries/gas/propane. Book early to secure a beachfront spot, but be prepared for a huge rip-off 20-50% WA State Park cancellation fee if you do end up cancelling your reservation! First-come-first-serve camping here is a pain due to staffing shortages, so just make a reservation online if you can do it early and know you're not going to cancel - the booth was only open one time during our many weeks here over the course of a few months.
It can get windy in the winter, and foggy in the summer, so be prepared for all sorts of weather - you have the honor of being the first to experience it before the rest of the peninsula.
Great jumping-off point for excursions into the Quinault Rainforest, as there isn't really much trailer/RV camping nearby up there. And you're right next to Seabrook which is a cute vacation town with nice restaurants. Hoquim/Aberdeen is close enough for any major box store needs, and there's a post office in town that's friendly to GENERAL DELIVERY packages.
You don't need to drive all the way out to Kalaloch to experience the beach in comfort, which can get super busy, loud, and smokey from all the tent campers. Dump station works well, with good quality water, electrical hookups were stable, and Verizon worked very well!

Fabulous staff & hosts. Yes system can be funky to get a site. Suggest just getting there during staff hours and dealing with a professional. 9:30-11; 1:30-3:30 - ish. Staff shortages sometimes lead to the "ish". We walked in, no reservations, had to stay longer than planned to access pet care, but I was there at 9:20am & with daily cancellations they made it happen. Switched sites 5 times in 9 days, we didnt mind or care, we were at the beach the week before the 4th of July, could see the water from our camper & we met more than a dozen friendly regulars who showed us the ropes! Learned 4 string Rev kite flying, enjoyed beach fires (none allowed at campsite due to proximity to town) and made good friends. If privacy and no kids having fun on bikes and with kites is your gig, this is not your place. Dont miss Scott's kite store with the best & cheapest coffee in town, the art gallery, the Green Lantern Pub down the road 8 miles (Bingo on Wed to benefit hungry kids or pet shelter), and the VFD hosts a wonderful pancake breakfast by donation the Saturday of each summer 3 day holiday weekend. Enjoy!
