It was a really beautiful campsite with a lot of convenient amenities available. The only thing I really have to complain about is that the heater in the tent wasn’t enough to keep us warm at night.

We enjoy camping on John's expansive property. It is clean and orderly with better bathrooms than a national or state park! There is easy access to potable water, and a decent amount of space between sites for privacy. We have "tent" camped there a couple of times (we have sleeping arrangements in our vehicle), and we most recently rented one of their cabins for a night. It was clean and cozy. There are "glamping" amenities such as a heater, electric outlets, a microwave and comfy mattresses on the platform beds. The curtains provided privacy, and the porch outside gave us a nice place to sit and enjoy nature and light-hearted artwork. The property is close enough to the town of Forks and the junction at which to head to the gorgeous, pristine ocean beaches. The owners can be easily reached by phone when necessary. We will return!

Weekend Trip to Olympic Adventure Campground
We had such a great time at the Chinook Cabin at the Olympic Adventure Camp! John was so very nice and accommodating, as we got there late. The campgrounds are so beautiful, especially for this girl who came here from Ohio! The cabin is essentially a shed with a heater, a microwave and two cots but it fit our needs for the one night we stayed! Two people in our group said they want to make plans to come back soon!

2 nights at sol duc rainforest retreat
The campgrounds were amazing!! the setting was beautiful and the directions were on point!! Everything listed was there: kitchen, kitchenware, running hot water for bathrooms, functional toilets in restrooms. Though the tent had a heater, it didn't do a great job, but thank goodness for blankets! (bring your own sleeping bag if you'd like extra comfort and warmth). was a perfect location for my hikes within Olympic; 30-45 mins to Hurricane Ridge and 15 mins from Storm King. I'd surely consider staying here once I plan my Pacific NW road trip!

Very easy to find the sites even in the dark and a beautiful layout. The full size bed was a little squeaky, but it did the job. Tent was clean.

Tent kept us dry and bedding was clean! We brought our own sleeping bags for warmth, which I 10/10 recommend as the nights can get chilly. The host offered to set up a propane pit/tank for an extra fee as there was a burn ban in place, which really added to our experience! Loved hearing the river and the birds in the morning. Clean porta-potty’s, and a well lit central area so you’re not stumbling in the dark. 15 mins to Forks, 10mins to La Push, this location is perfect for beach and forest trail hiking and close to food/supplies. Enjoy!

Very cute area! Campsite was just the right size. The tents were nice & the bed was comfortable. Listening to the river all night long was a high light! Only complaint was the shower, not exactly my cup of tea!

3 nights at sol duc rainforest retreat
What an amazing place! You can tell that the owners of this location put a lot of love and mindfulness into this place, from the amenities of well-furnished kitchens(!) and hot(!) showers, to the hand-carved and selected decorations hidden everywhere and multitudes of places to sit by yourself or hang out with others. Even with all of the pleasures of civilization, it still feels like you're truly camping inside the rainforest, which was exactly what I was hoping for. (And I spent more than a little time on the rope hammock platform, just soaking it all in!) Aside from the nearby roadway during the day, which isn't terrible and is less noticeable in the further campsites, it's incredibly peaceful and quiet, and that same road takes you to so many nearby sites for exploring and hiking that I can't find it in me to mind the mild noise! I'm so glad I stumbled across this place, and I greatly look forward to returning!
I was in one of the "glamping" spots, #5, and very much appreciated the setup and available power, as well as the clever use of padding between tent and platform. It was perfectly cozy on the mild September nights - I brought an electric blanket just in case but didn't need it - and there was more than enough room and height to not struggle with space at all.

Weekend Trip to Olympic Adventure Campground
Great place to crash while exploring Forks and the Olympics! Beds were comfy, cabin was clean, bathrooms nearby. We were running a bit late for check in so we called the host and they let us know how to get in after hours! Wouldn’t recommend messaging since they don’t seem to check that.

My husband and I loved staying here. Perfect spot to be able to explore the Olympic National Park. Teresa was super friendly and gave us suggestions on places to visit. The RV was super comfortable and outdoor shower was nice. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

Beautiful quiet and quaint place! The tents are comfortable with enough privacy. Toilet and shower are primitive but fine. Perfect location for visiting Rialto Beach/Hole in the Wall. Hoh Rainforest is also reasonably close.

Weekend Trip to sol duc rainforest retreat
I had a nice time at Sol Duc Retreat and got very lucky with temperate weather and even some sunshine. My stay was in the glamping tent site 5 and it included a full sized air mattress and a single person cot with pillows and blankets. The site was gorgeous and really felt like you are camping in the rainforest, but its pretty close to the highway so car traffic noise could always be heard. Finding the campsite was a breeze with the directions from the host. Sol Duc Retreat is a skip away from Lake Crescent and relatively close to so many hikes in Olympic so location was awesome. The amenities were just fine - the kitchen equipment seems to just be cleaned and maintained by the guests so it was a tad grimy. I would recommend bringing some of your own utensils and plates to eat with, but I felt fine using pots and pans because I could burn off any germs through cooking. The bathrooms also followed suit with the kitchens and felt unclean, but I was fine with that for a few nights! They were always properly stocked with toilet paper and hot water. Definitely bring shower shoes! The kitchen and bathrooms were not as clean as I had hoped but they were there and still super helpful to use. Overall, I would recommend staying at Sol Duc Retreat because it was a solid accommodation that allowed me to soak up every bit of Olympic!

Where to go
Olympic National Park
Olympic National Park has 73 miles of coastline to explore, four rainforests with tons of hiking trails, hundreds of lakes, and 4,000 miles of rivers and streams. It’s a backcountry camping paradise—but campers should bring a tarp in case of rain (the park receives 12 feet of rainfall per year). RVers will find campsites with a variety of amenities like fire rings, picnic tables, and hookups for electricity and water. After setting up camp, spend the day traversing the trail from Rialto Beach to Hole-in-the-Wall to check out the tidal pools bursting with underwater life.
Lake Ozette
Get a waterfront view when camping year-round at Lake Ozette, a 45-minute drive from La Push. Most campgrounds found here are rustic, with pit toilets and potable water but no hookups. Go whale watching from one of the boardwalk trails that heads toward the coast, or follow another trail to Sand Point to view 54 ancient petroglyphs. Then kayak the lake and explore three small islands—Tivoli, Garden Island, and Baby Island. Ozette Lake is teeming with fish and is also home to a boat-in campground so anglers can wake up on the water.
Sol Duc Valley
East of La Push, Sol Duc Valley delivers lush, old-growth rainforests and iconic fishing. For hiking, hit up the Sol Duc Falls Trail that weaves throughout the stunning landscape toward a pounding 48-foot high waterfall. Anglers should check out Sol Duc River for year-round fishing for salmon, steelhead, and trout. Then, pay a visit to Sol Duc Hot Springs, where three mineral pools warmed by volcanic rocks create a soothing spot to relax. Shoreline campsites dot the river and offer services for both tents and RVs, with amenities ranging from picnic tables and firepits to restrooms and potable water taps.
When to go
La Push has an oceanic climate with warm summers and rainy winters. The mild temperatures make camping year-round appealing. August is the warmest month and a great time for ocean swimming, while November through January see the most rainfall. If chasing waterfalls is on the agenda, the best time to see them is in April and May, when the snowpack is melting.
