Scenic Beach State Park

This is one of our favorite close to home camping spots. We have stayed here tent camping and with our trailer. In the off season they close the upper loop which has lots of nice large sites. We recently stayed in site 22 which was tight for our 30ft trailer and truck. Site 20 also looked tight. Sites16 17 and 19 are your best pull through options in the off season. I am already looking forward to spring and seeing the wild rhododendrons blooming in the forest. We love walking the beach and seeing the eagles and otters in the morning. I believe Seabeck pizza will still deliver pizza to your site.

I really want to give scenic beach 5 stars because we loved it so much! But there are two major drawbacks that we’ll get to in a sec.

Pros:
- These are some of the most beautiful, amazing campsites we’ve ever encountered! It’s all big, beautiful pines and lush PNW rainforest vibes.
- HUGE sites with a driveway AND big tent/relaxation pad with campfire and picnic bench. Lots of pull-throughs for RVs
- with the trees, these are the most private sites ever, you will not see your next door neighbors!
- wonderfully maintained, manicured sites, clean fairly updates bathrooms, some of the best of a state park we’ve seen
- cell signal strong enough to work & stream
- very quiet
- off season is walk in only, a dream for full-timers. End of September only a handful of campers.
- access to beautiful water. Not really a beach, but swimming and boat access and gorgeous Mountain View’s.

Cons:
- no hookups. Which we don’t normally mind trading hookups for a beautiful site, except...
- $30/ night is a lot for no hookups. You can pay slightly less for smaller sites, $25. These are off season rates, I think it can be up to $40/night in the summer. Water spigots and dump station and flush toilets and pay showers are available though.
- because of the beautiful trees we also couldn’t get enough solar to stay longer

I still highly recommend this campground, you will have a wonderful experience, especially if you’re staying short term or in a tent. However, you will be paying for the experience.

The campground is not really on the beach, instead you are tucked away in a wooded campground. The sites here are some of the hugest I have ever seen in a campground. It was like having a huge apartment all to ourselves. We arrived on a Sunday and had the campground pretty much all to ourselves.

Unfortunately we had to leave early so didn't get to explore as much as we would like. But the beach area is pretty if a little small. The area is densely wooded so if you rely on solar energy you may find it difficult. There is water in the campground as well as restrooms. There is a dump station also on site.
