Giggling Water in Washington
Host Bary Bruner says:
This campsite is on the Coweeman River, 16 miles east of Interstate 5, on Rose Valley Rd, Kelso, WA. A pool deep/large enough for swimming makes it a wonderful summer retreat. Caution: wet rocks are as slick as ice!
There is only one site on this property so your party will have it to yourselves. A fire pit, with on site firewood available for purchase, provides warmth after your dip in the cool water. A picnic table is under a 13' X 13' pop up awning.
The driveway terminates in a cul de sac; an area large enough for any vehicle to turn around. A small trailer (less than 20') is fine if you're talented getting it turned around or can unhitch and turned around by hand. You'd need a 4 wheel drive to get it out of the steepish driveway. There is a large flat area for parking/tents plus a couple remote, dirt sites for tents.
Non digging, well mannered dogs are allowed (2 maximum) provided their responsible owners clean up after them.
A new nifty outhouse has a great view!
Rose Valley Road follows the Coweeman River, has little traffic, and may serve as a nice hike/bike up or down stream.
We have another well reviewed Hipcamp just downstream (out of sight and sound); search Snail's Pace.

Notice: Weyerhaeuser Timber Company owns most of the adjacent lands and is planning on raping (their term is 'harvesting') 100 acres close to our property this summer ('25). Our normally quiet site might become a bit noisy on weekdays after they start.
