I loved its quiet space and the friendliness of the host. Felt right at home. What a great experience!
Unfortunately due to weather we were unable to camp here but did receive a tour of the spacious pottery house! We do wish we could have stayed longer. Definitely will add to our next trip around the Washington peninsula!
Was only there overnight, but, she was looking out for us, on a rainy night, and waived us into her property.
We really enjoyed our brief stay at Sandy's Wishkah Blue. Sorry though that the pottery shop was not open, as we would have lingered a while. A lovely property on the hill above Hoquiam/Aberdeen.
Simple and friendly
Sandy was very welcoming and her pack of dogs are sweet. We were surprised by how trafficked the roads are that corner her property. The cars and trucks whizzed by all through the night, which made it difficult to really get into the camping feel. It is very much so "backyard camping". This is an affordable and friendly spot if you need a quick stop-over for a long journey, however I wouldn't use this site for a base camp.
Really nice spot to disconnect.
My friend and I stayed for two nights at the end of August with our 2 dogs. There is a large area where you can choose where to set up for shade, sun, or both. There was a fire ban while we were there, so we chose to set up further from the fire pit since we couldn't use it anyway. We enjoyed picking and eating some of the blackberries around the property, meeting Sandy's sweet dogs, and letting ours sniff around in the fenced in garden area. It got quite cold at night, down to 48 degrees with lots of dew. But by 10 or 11 am, it was really warm and everything was dry. There were great stars if you're into that! It was really nice to have access to a restroom with hot water to wash up in the sink. There are a good amount of bugs, especially in the evening, but we didn't have any problems with mosquitos. It was lots of teeny tiny gnats, and some larger flying insects that really wanted to land on me.. but they weren't much of a bother. Sandy was a great host - she gave us a walking tour of the property when we arrived, and didn't mind our GSD puppy being very excited the whole time and barking at her dogs at times. This was a great spot to camp for a couple nights and we would definitely recommend it. Very flexible, good accommodations, cute dogs! Only cons (out of Sandy's control) were that it does get very cold at night, and there is absolutely zero cell service. Make sure you write down all the directions in and out after you leave the highway so you can navigate without GPS. Side note: We drove to the bay one day and were surprised to find that Washington requires a pass for visiting any state park areas. We are from out of state. We spent forever driving around and researching online, trying to get to a beach. We finally ended up figuring out where a pay station was, at a very crowded surfing beach. We paid, but then drove down a bit to a less crowded beach, which was better for our dogs. So if you are from out of state and want to enjoy state parks or any beach access at all, make sure to buy a pass ahead of time! People who didn't have passes were getting ticketed - it's strictly enforced.




Road noise, but great quick stop
The GPS gets you close, but you gotta be a bit adventuresome in an area that has no cell reception. Sandy was very hospitable. I had difficulty handling the big spider that came after me in the bathroom & the amount of road noise without ear plugs in the meadow behind the house. A lovely area to get to the forest and beach from if you need a nice quick stop with clean, potable water. Oh and blackberries! We left our rainfly off and woke early to a few drops coming thru so we broke camp before we could make a bit of pottery with Sandy, but it looked cool!
The host was very kind and thoughtful, introducing us to her place. It’s a nice field behind the house and quaint pottery studio, very quiet and peaceful.
