Olympic Adventure Campground

47 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents18 acres · Forks, WA
Olympic Adventure Campground is available to Both RV's & Tent Dry Camping. The Camp Address is: 192602 US-101, Forks, WA 98331, USA. Our Camp is situated on a little more than 5 acres out of our 18 acres of Dense Enormous Evergreen Forest in the Olympic temperate rain forest region. It is next to the road on Highway 101 but still offers our guests the wilderness experience and semi-privacy with tall trees surrounding the camp. We recommend that our guests use GPS to find Forks, WA, First. Once you find Forks, you will be able to find our camp. Helpful Hints: If you are traveling from the South side of town: We are only about Half a Mile from the Northbound Edge of town on the Right. If you are traveling from the North side: Watch for milepost number 193. This means you are very close. Our camp will be on the left. Our Sites were planned out and spaced to offer our guests plenty of "Elbow Room". Whether your travel plans are for using a Tent, parking an RV, or a Rustic Cabin stay, we can help you with that. Each site has its own Details and Pricing for Booking your Reservations. Please check-in at the main office building after 1pm. Check out time is 11 am. During the Summer Vacation Season of May through Labor Day: Our Gift Shop/Office business hours are: Daily between the hours of: 7am - 7pm. During this schedule our guests may call us for checking in up to 9pm. During the Fall through Spring Season of (After Labor Day) in September through April: Gift Shop/Office business hours are between the hours of: 8am to 6pm Monday-Friday. Saturday & Sunday the hours are Intermittent. Therefore we kindly ask our guests to call or send us a text message for access to the store; for assistance; questions or to check in. Guests may call us up to 8pm. If a guest decides that they are dissatisfied with their original choice of camping space, they can make a request to change it (depending on availability), through the booking platform that we use called Hipcamp. But do keep in mind that there will be a fee applied for making a modification online on a current reservation. Otherwise let us know how we may help you during your stay. We very kindly ask our guests to be positive and adaptable if ever they encounter a booking issue at our camp. Surprisingly it does happen sometimes with the online booking websites. We experienced this problem over our busiest summer season in 2023. So this is why it can be stressful on both our guests and our hosts. We simply ask our guests to express grace and patience toward us as we work very hard to accommodate you even if something goes wrong. However, if someone out there is not willing to consider and accept a change in their booking site as the result of a rare but possible booking issue, then they may need to look elsewhere to camp. Regarding Electric Vehicles: Please remember to pack your EV adapter power cord. The Fee for Charging an Electric Vehicle Overnight is a Flat Rate of $10.00. Please send us a message or call ahead if you are planning to bring one to our camp. The fee would be handled at our office. Here at Olympic Adventure Campground we work hard to ensure that our guests are content with their camp space and the surroundings. Most of our guests expect to have a quiet, peaceful stay. With this in mind, we have a strict rule in place: Our camp Speed Limit is 5 mph. No Excessively Loud & Fast Operation of Vehicles are allowed to cruise on our camp roads. Some examples are: ATV (Example: Polaris), Dirt Racing Motorcycles, Race Cars. We also kindly ask our guests to use the nearest large dumpster as needed for their trash. Please do not hang bags of food or trash up in the tree branches; do not leave them on the ground anywhere as it does attract the ravens and crows to make a big mess with it. RV Black Waste Water Holding Tanks: We Kindly Ask our Guests the Following: Please arrive at our camp with an empty black waste water holding tank. There are a few dumping options available in this area, just ask us more about it. There is another place called Bogachiel State Park that has a dump station available for RV's at the flat rate of $5.00. Their fee may be different depending on the season of your travels. It is located about 5 miles south of Forks, WA. There are also some rest areas along the I-5 freeway that have free dump stations. Please be mindful to not burden our septic system by arriving here with a full tank of waste water that was accumulated elsewhere. Among the amenities here at our camp, we have 3 restroom stand alone units with running water that remain open for our guests to use 24/7. For Hot Showers: We kindly ask guests to stop in at the camp office first. We charge $5.00 per person on a schedule between the hours of 7am-7pm Daily During Summer Season. Please call if needed when the office is closed, to arrange a time during the Off-Peak Season (After Labor Day through April). The reason we have it on a schedule and charge for it is the following: When we first started this business, the showers were free. However, people would line up behind all the restrooms waiting to take a free shower and others waited in line just to use the commode. Later we received negative feedback about all that. Also, there have been times that we had arrived at the campground in the morning to work and found the water from one of the showers was left running through the night. Our hot water system is powered by propane (hot water on demand). So we pay for both the propane and the city water. So we humbly ask our guests to be considerate for others and for us. With regard to that: Please coordinate and supervise children appropriately for using the facilities that are available here. We have some portable commode units set up at our tent camp section also to accommodate guests especially when the camp is fully booked. We recommend that our guests bring along a raincoat and a warm layer of clothing because rain showers and temperature changes are random and it can happen in any season. Some popular activities in this region include; hiking, fishing, kayaking, rafting trips. Lake Pleasant, as its name implies, located only 8 miles North of Forks is a lovely spot for swimming, boating. Please read the details of our camp listing as appropriate for your travel plans and for more information on our camp amenities and rules. Thank You.

Wild WA Coast Lookout ($75 - $125)

7 sites · RVs, Tents23 acres · Forks, WA
Welcome to Aliya Preserve. Originally owned by the developers of Kalaloch Lodge, this was slated to be an expansion site for the resort. That development would have drastically changed the land. Adam & Sara purchased the property in 2018 to preserve it. We enjoy sharing it with nature aficionados who respect the sacredness of the unblemished land and help us keep it pristine. From your mossy bank perched above the panoramic Pacific, beneath burley spruce tree boughs, magic sunsets unfold at your own super-private and secluded campsite with fire-pit. Adjacent to Olympic National Park, this is the same beach and bluff that defines Kalaloch, LaPush and and other wild Washington coastal icons. As the stewards of this land, we are now inviting respectful and responsible small groups and families to share its beauty. Without prior approval we allow only eight people per group— even when split between campsites. Please make sure to check the site *title* for number of campers allowed in each site. For example only two people are allowed in sites 1 and 4.

The best camping near Bogachiel State Park guide

Overview

About

This beautifully kept, remote park lies on the northwestern tip of Washington State. Thanks to 140-160 inches of dense annual rainfall, the thickly forested 123-acre camping park is lush with vegetation. Campsites right along the Bogachiel River make this a great base camp if you're touring the western Olympic Peninsula.

Soak up the green-enshrouded rainforest terrain on the park's two short trails. Pick up the Bogachiel River Trail that goes into the National Forest right across the street. If it's summer, float the park's small section of river.

The small campground has 36 clean and well-maintained, relatively private standard sites. Six sites have power and water. There are restrooms with showers and a dump station.

The park's campground and two day-use areas are open year-round. Book a reservation for May 15-Sept. 15; everything else is first-come, first-served. The trick here is to score a site next to the river so it drowns out the traffic noise from nearby Hwy. 101.

Notable campgrounds

  • Standard Campsites - Nestled amid the park's greenery, offering a classic camping experience.
  • Partial Hookup Sites - Ideal for those seeking a blend of nature and convenience for their RVs.
  • Hiker-Biker Sites - A perfect spot for the adventurous souls traveling on foot or by bike.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early to secure your spot, especially during peak summer months.
  • Check for cancellations regularly as plans change and spots may open up.
  • Consider midweek camping for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Explore nearby camping options for alternative accommodations if the park is full.

When to go

The best time to visit Bogachiel State Park is during the summer, from 8am to dusk, when the weather is mild and the park is fully accessible. Winter also offers a serene beauty, but be prepared for shorter days and cooler temperatures. Avoid burn bans and check for seasonal alerts before planning your trip.

Know before you go

  • Ensure you have a Discover Pass for park entry; annual passes are $30 and one-day passes are $10.
  • Keep dogs on a leash and respect the wildlife by maintaining a safe distance.
  • Take advantage of the park's amenities, including restrooms, showers, and picnic tables.
  • Stay informed about burn bans and other park rules to ensure a safe visit.
  • Remember, the park is open from 8am to dusk, so plan your activities accordingly.
