Campers rave about the stunning views and peaceful atmosphere of this campsite, making it a preferred choice for those seeking tranquility close to the city. With clear instructions from the host, guests find the location easy to access, despite the steep drive. The campsite offers essential amenities like a fire pit, potable water, and a clean outhouse, though some noted the outhouse could get quite full. Privacy is appreciated, with natural shrubbery separating sites, and the presence of a swing adds a delightful touch for both kids and adults.
An amazing place to camp. We had a stunning view at the Pink table. We saw Mt. Rainier, Mt. Adams, and Mt. St. Helens. The large swing is a blast. Sites are slanted towards the edge; It would be cool to see them leveled out. Outside of that I have nothing but good things. If you get the chance check it out.
Had a great experience camping here! The site is well set up with a sturdy yellow picnic table and a nice fireplaceâperfect for cooking and hanging out. Instructions were very clear, and it was easy to find the location. The views are a definite highlightâsunrise and sunset were absolutely beautiful. One thing to note: the yellow picnic table is fairly close to neighboring sites, so your camping neighbors can make a difference. Thankfully, mine were quiet and respectful. Overall, I definitely recommend this spot for a peaceful and scenic getaway.
Great spot! Such a great find especially with water and electric there. Definitely have 4WD on when youâre towing. We arrived in pouring rain and had quite a bit of slipping happening while towing our 20â trailer with our truck, but navigated it fine. Sites are not too level, so bring your Andersonâs and expect to max them out.
