Didn’t get a lick of sleep due to the a-holes partying and blaring music all night long. Are there no quiet hours? No host in charge?

“More space by far than Forks campground.”

There are campsites on both sides of the road, some of which are right on the river. Some are large enough for an RV. The boat access is on the upstream, east, side of the road. Still, it's more crowded and costs more than the horse camp ($12 for two people), so I'd rather stay there. It's $20 per site with the state park pass here.

The usual for a primitive state park: Vault toilets, fire rings, and picnic tables. I imagine it gets crowded and noisy on the weekends.

The road is dirt, which was in good condition when we were there in early June. Cell service is spotty.

Okay, but there are better choices nearby, if you aren't interested in being on the lake.
