There are no RV specific parking spots. Mgt asks that you park behind the building but do not block the trash bins. Some road noise.
What a find! This is private land with a $5 per night fee. There is no address so use the GPS coordinates above. The entrance is directly across the street from Hoh Mainline Rd. At the entrance is a mailbox with fee envelopes. Head down a mostly gravel / hard packed dirt road to the "beach". This is really a packed down rock / used to be river bed. Pick a spot you like! There are several firepits you can use as a guide. For our 4 nights, there were two of us then others came and went. Surprisingly, we had 5 bars for T-Mobile. We were able to get water for free at the Queets Trading Post (gas station) 20 miles south of the campground. Did buy stuff as a thank you. The spigot is behind the building to the right of exit door. If you have a long enough hose, pull up far enough that if someone wants to use the adjacent diesel pump, they have room to pull in. The entrance to the Glacier National Park Hoh Rainforest is just 2 miles north then an 18 mile drive. Well worth spending a few hours hiking the two nature trails. Forks is a functional town with gas, grocery, library, etc. As others have said, please follow the campground rules so that this amazing place is not taken away!

This park is right off the interstate. You do have to go down a 1.5 mile dirt road (not 3 miles as previously noted). It is a large parking lot. Just pick a spot. Right on the left as you enter is the most level. The lot goes downhill from there. A couple of camper vans came in after us and parked perpendicular to us which worked. There will be a lot of local traffic as this is a popular spot for fishing and jogging. The sheriff came by once in the evening and once in the morning. The tiny bugs come out in force at night so close up your RV as soon as you turn on interior lights. As there is little to no light pollution, the star gazing is great!

Fee is $10 payable at gas station register before using. It can be difficult to get to due to truck parking. I was going to have to back into it. It only has potable water with a sign indicating that it is not to be used for flushing black tanks. Plus the spigot is right beside the sewer opening. Decided to pass.
Wanted a place to stay that would let us visit the northern section of Olympic National Park as well as the northern coastline. This was perfect. We were in the front electric/water section with a beautiful view of the snow covered mountains behind the campground. The drive pattern within the park is a bit strange. Definitely ask the desk about how to maneuver back to the dump station when ready. By their own admission, propane is much cheaper at the IGS out on 101. The staff is so friendly and willing to help in any way possible. The ice cream social and bingo were lots of fun. The park is very well maintained. No recycling. The pool was open, but brrrrrr! The hot tub was closed due to supply chain issues. The office has a large DVD library, games, and the usual store with a bit of everything. The wi-fi was excellent with many repeaters throughout the grounds.
The drive up to Hurricane Ridge was amazing! Many of the trails were still snow covered so not accessible or snowshoes recommended. Spent time exploring from Crescent Lake to the west all the way to Port Townsend in the east. If you are looking for whale watching, Puget Sound Express seems to be the only option and seats fill up fast. Make reservations. They do have a waitlist and said that many never show. You can take your changes walking up to the ticket booth 30 minutes prior to departure to see if there are any seats. Definitely spend time hiking in the Dungeness Recreation Area all the way out to the spit.

This campground is the best campground you can get closest to the YNP west entrance. It is all gravel. There are lots of tall trees providing shade. Each site has a picnic table and most sights have a cement pad to put chairs on. Each site is back-to-back with another so it is tight. However, we were not there most of the day so it was not big deal. To get the number of nights we wanted, we agreed to move mid-stay. We started on site 20 which had a full size picnic table and the cement pad. Site 16 did not have a cement pad and it had a child sized picnic table. We were able to move as soon as the other site was vacated. The hosts are very friendly and willing to help as possible. Cannot comment on the bath house as we did not use it. The laundry was closed. The wi-fi was strong even in the evening when everyone comes back. At the time of this review, there is a hotel being built next door. The parking lot is still dirt with a huge dirt pile next to the campground. Be aware that you will have dust everywhere. Not the campgrounds fault and hopefully it will be finished soon. Check out the Ernie's Bakery / Sandwich shop a block away. Excellent!

Stayed here overnight. The rate is a Passport America discount. You are led to your site. It was long enough to stay hitched to our trailer if wanted to. However, this town has so many great Route 66 things to see that we wanted to go explore a bit. Level gravel pull-thru with full hookups. Had laundry but closes at 7:00pm. One unique amenity is a vehicle / RV washing pad for $10! There is also a car wash by the grocery store that has one bay tall enough to pull in an RV. Have never come across that before. If interested, there is a great 18 hole frisbee golf course just west of town! Don't miss eating at Del's Restaurant and seeing the Blue Swallow Motel especially at night so you can see the neon signs!

The dump station is to the left as you enter the park. It has everything you need. Cannot attach a hose for the black tank flush. Just fill your bucket and do it the old fashioned way!
Stayed here 3 nights to explore the northern and southern parts of Redwoods National Park. Check-in was fun with the sisters who run the front desk. If you have a dog, expect a mandatory dog meet-n-greet with these dog lovers! Overall, the park is well maintained. The pull-thrus are narrow making it difficult to stay off the nicely manicured lawn. My wife gave the laundry room a thumbs-up. The best part is the Klamath River running past the entire campground. There is a forested peninsula on the other side that was enshrouded in fog each morning. So beautiful. The docks had not been put out yet. There is a fish cleaning station by the office. Per current rules, you can wash your RV using environmentally friendly cleaning solutions. That was so welcome given a month's worth of bugs on the front of our trailer. There is a bit of road noise, but not much at night.

First, our nightly rate was due to making the reservation late last year before the rates went up. My reservation was honored which I appreciated.
This is a great campground! Selected it so that we could visit Albuquerque and Santa Fe without having to change campgrounds. Spent one day in each city. The pull-thru site is on a slant, but not so much that you cannot level your RV. Pulled the trailer to the front of the pull-thru so the door would be aligned with the covered picnic table. There are longer pull-thru sites for much larger rigs that are flat.
I know this is a weird thing to put in a review, but I liked the dump station! The septic hole was recessed into the ground so that the liquid did not have to go up and over like so many dump stations.
The smells coming from the neighboring restaurant frequently made our mouths water! However, we did not give in. There is a great laundromat just the other side of 85 on the right side. West of the campground is just about any store you could need for provisions.
Be sure to get on Route 66 going east for the Singing Highway playing America, the Beautiful! Did it twice!
