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.

Wild WA Coast Lookout ($75 - $125)

6 sites ¡ Lodging, RVs, Tents23 acres ¡ Forks, WA
Welcome to Aliya Preserve. Originally owned by the developers of Kalaloch Lodge, this was slated to be an expansion site for the lodge. That development would have drastically changed the land. Making it available for campers allows us to both share the beauty and keep it pristine. From your mossy bank perched above the panoramic Pacific, beneath burley spruce tree boughs, magic sunsets unfold at your own super-private and secluded campsite with fire-pit. Adjacent to Olympic National Park, this is the same beach and bluff that defines Kalaloch, LaPush and and other wild Washington coastal icons. As the stewards of this land, we are now inviting respectful and responsible small groups and families to share its beauty. Please make sure to check the site *title* for number of campers allowed in each site. For example only two people are allowed in sites 1 & 4.

The best camping near Bogachiel State Park guide

Overview

About

This beautifully kept, remote park lies on the northwestern tip of Washington State. Thanks to 140-160 inches of dense annual rainfall, the thickly forested 123-acre camping park is lush with vegetation. Campsites right along the Bogachiel River make this a great base camp if you're touring the western Olympic Peninsula.

Soak up the green-enshrouded rainforest terrain on the park's two short trails. Pick up the Bogachiel River Trail that goes into the National Forest right across the street. If it's summer, float the park's small section of river.

The small campground has 36 clean and well-maintained, relatively private standard sites. Six sites have power and water. There are restrooms with showers and a dump station.

The park's campground and two day-use areas are open year-round. Book a reservation for May 15-Sept. 15; everything else is first-come, first-served. The trick here is to score a site next to the river so it drowns out the traffic noise from nearby Hwy. 101.

Notable campgrounds

  • Standard Campsites - Nestled amid the park's greenery, offering a classic camping experience.
  • Partial Hookup Sites - Ideal for those seeking a blend of nature and convenience for their RVs.
  • Hiker-Biker Sites - A perfect spot for the adventurous souls traveling on foot or by bike.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your spot, especially during peak summer months.
  • Check for cancellations regularly as plans change and spots may open up.
  • Consider midweek camping for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Explore nearby camping options for alternative accommodations if the park is full.

When to go

The best time to visit Bogachiel State Park is during the summer, from 8am to dusk, when the weather is mild and the park is fully accessible. Winter also offers a serene beauty, but be prepared for shorter days and cooler temperatures. Avoid burn bans and check for seasonal alerts before planning your trip.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have a Discover Pass for park entry; annual passes are $30 and one-day passes are $10.
  • Keep dogs on a leash and respect the wildlife by maintaining a safe distance.
  • Take advantage of the park's amenities, including restrooms, showers, and picnic tables.
  • Stay informed about burn bans and other park rules to ensure a safe visit.
  • Remember, the park is open from 8am to dusk, so plan your activities accordingly.
