Guest Stories
Words from travelers who pitched their tents, parked their vans, and called Elwha home — even just for a night.
We loved our stay! Booked a dry site in a small meadow for our 21' van. Had such a great night we renewed for another. The ladies that run this place were super nice. Gave great recommendations. Can pick berries from the massive bushes. There's even a little garden for guests with herbs and a few diff peppers. Showers were very clean. Nice hikes off the camp for short walkabouts.

Such a beautiful woodsy campground, steps away from the forest. Family owned & staff were so friendly and helpful! Perfect central location for seeing Olympic National Park areas & close to Town of Port Angeles. Community garden, laundry, clean showers and restrooms. Highly recommend this drama free, happy place for your home base while exploring!

This campground is just gorgeous! It's just barely off hwy 112 but it's so quiet. The owners and staff are truly wonderful. We're on a once in a lifetime camping trip and are far from home so, probably will not be back. That's a shame. Smell the trees. See the Olympic mountains. Go for a kayak paddle. You'll love it.

The campground offers a central location in Port Angeles and convenient access to hiking trails immediately outside the entrance. These trails, including the Olympic Discovery Trail, are also accessible from within the campground. Additionally, a community garden is available for guest use. The staff and management are highly regarded. We have been staying here for business and vacation for over two months. The weather is beautiful and the views of the Elwah river are wonderful.
