RV camping near Chehalis

·

Legend has it that a mythical humanoid creature—covered in hair and standing 10 feet tall—inhabits the lush, old-growth rainforests of the Pacific Northwest. While campers may not spot Bigfoot during their outdoor adventures, there are countless chances to explore the forests and look for other local wildlife while RV camping in Chehalis, WA. Hiking opportunities and water activities abound in nearby Capitol State Forest, Rainbow Falls State Park, and Lake Sylvia State Park. Just over an hour southeast, Mount St. Helens towers above the landscape. Its amazing crater views, interpretive information centers, waterfalls, caves, and rugged hiking trails offer something for every camper. Catch a presentation on the history of the 110,000-acre National Volcanic Monument that opened after the infamous eruption in 1980. After a day in nature, park at one of the many local RV campsites offering full hookups for water, electricity, and sewer. Campervans, travel trailers, and big rigs can pull into back-in campsites that have picnic tables, potable water, and restrooms.
