"Beautiful location on the Olympic Peninsula"

This is a great location, the campground is on a bluff, and although you can't see the water you are just a few steps away from it. Loop 1 is First Come First Served. Loop 2 is reservable. We found it easy to get a spot in loop 1 during the... Read more

"Pretty campground, dancing and long term residents"

We don't stay at many RV parks, but there are not good options for public campgrounds near to Missoula. But this was a nice setting for a private RV park, much more like a campground than an RV park. The park is kept immaculately clean, and... Read more
