Olympic Adventure Campground

41 sites ¡ Lodging, RVs, Tents18 acres ¡ WA
Olympic Adventure Campground is available to Both RV's & Tent Dry Camping. The Camp Address is: 192602 US-101, Forks, WA 98331, USA. Our Camp is situated on a little more than 5 acres out of our 18 acres of Dense Enormous Evergreen Forest. It is next to the road on Highway 101 but still offers our guests the wilderness experience and semi-privacy with tall trees surrounding the camp. We recommend that our guests use GPS to find Forks, WA, First. Once you find Forks, you will be able to find our camp. Helpful Hints: If you are traveling from the South side of town: We are only about Half a Mile from the Northbound Edge of town on the Right. If you are traveling from the North side: Watch for milepost number 193. This means you are very close. Our camp will be on the left. Our Sites were planned out and spaced to offer our guests plenty of "Elbow Room". Whether your travel plans are for pitching a Tent or parking an RV, we can help you with that. Each site has its own Details and Pricing for Booking your Reservations. We very kindly ask our guests to be patient and adaptable if ever they encounter a booking issue at our camp. Surprisingly it does happen sometimes with the online booking websites. We experienced this problem over our busiest summer season in 2023. So this is why it can be stressful on both our guests and our hosts. We simply ask of our guests to have some mercy on us as we work very hard to accommodate you even if something goes wrong. However, if someone out there is not willing to consider and accept a change in their booking site as a result of a rare but possible booking issue, then they may need to look elsewhere to camp. Regarding Electric Vehicles: The Fee for Charging an Electric Vehicle Overnight is a Flat Rate of $7.00. Please send us a message or call ahead if you are planning to bring one to our camp. Here at Olympic Adventure Campground we work hard to ensure that our guests are content with their camp space and the surroundings. Most of our guests expect to have a quiet, peaceful stay. With this in mind, we have a strict rule in place: No Excessively Loud Vehicles are allowed to operate on our camp road. Some examples not allowed here: ATV (Example: Polaris), Dirt Racing Motorcycles, Race Cars. RV Waste Water Holding Tanks: We Kindly Ask our Guests the Following: Please arrive at our camp with an empty waste water holding tank. There is a place called Bogachiel State Park that has a dump station available for RV's at the flat rate of $5.00. It is located about 5 miles south of Forks, WA. There are also some rest areas along the I-5 freeway that have free dump stations. Please be mindful to not burden our septic system by arriving here with a full tank of waste water that was accumulated elsewhere. When our guests accumulate waste water at our camp: Dumping Cost: $10.00 per 20 gallons. There is another free dumping option. Ask us about it. Some popular activities in this region include; hiking, fishing, kayaking, rafting trips. Lake Pleasant, as its name implies, located only 8 miles North of Forks is a lovely spot for swimming, boating. Please read the details of our camp listing as appropriate for your travel plans and for more information on our camp amenities and rules. Thank You.

Camping near Port Angeles guide

Overview

Perched on the shores of the Olympic Peninsula, Port Angeles is a busy seaside town. It’s the gateway to Olympic National Park, where beautiful Washington campsites sit in misty, mysterious forests. Whether you want to hike high into the peaks or stay by the sea, this historic spot has a spot for you.

Watch freighters pass through the Juan de Fuca Strait at Salt Creek Recreation Area. A short walk from your tent site, you can explore tide pools on Tongue Point or kayak along the rocky shore. Inside the campground, try to get the RV sites 1-39—they have water views and electrical hookups. On clear nights, you can see the sparkling lights of Victoria, Canada.

Want to stay closer to Port Angeles? A variety of private RV parks near Highway 101 offer Wi-Fi, laundry, and other amenities.

For forested RV and tent camping, head for Olympic National Park. Heart O’the Hills Campground is just 7 miles from downtown. At Sol Duc, you can hike to hidden hot springs or book a rustic cabin. High in the mountains, Hurricane Ridge offers hiking, cross-country skiing, and stunning wildflower displays.

As you’re packing for Port Angeles, bring rain gear; storms and mist are common year-round. April through September bring warm, pleasant temperatures that are ideal for hiking and wildlife-spotting. Winters are chilly and beautiful—bring a warm jacket, and you can enjoy the wilderness and sea views in solitude.
