Really beautiful campground on the shores of Lake Crescent. The beach is a great place to swim and kayak, and there is a campground store that is pretty well-equipped with the essentials. The campsites were beautiful, in the middle of the ferny forest (size of each campsite varies greatly). The only thing we could wish for were showers and a playground for the kids.

DO NOT BELIEVE ONLINE BOOKING. There are no attendants on duty, and if the slot was open when they reviewed, it's a free for all. Similarly, if the online tracker says fully booked, DON'T BELIEVE IT. Be advised, the location is gorgeous, the truck noise, dog noise, booking process all knock stars off. BOOKING. Chaotic. No attendant, so expect to find the RIGHT BULLETIN BOARD, at the bathroom closest to the entrance, not the far bulletin board by the second bathroom. The back side will list the campsites occupied and those available, but it's honor system tracking since there's no staff. When I arrived, 9/19, image attached, every space was labeled reserved, both on the placards and online. DON'T BELIEVE THAT. I found some other campers going on the scavenger hunt that was locating the right board with the information, cross referencing the outdated list with current occupations, and then booking offline based on that information. Bring a pen and credit card for this as the payments are cashless. EVEN SO my neighbor camper, who followed the list, double crossed an online booking made after they'd established their camp and had to move. I personally updated said list with both my neighbors, as none of the total four campers had updated the wipe off marker section of said list. Download the FULL site map before you go, as the numbering array is disconnected between lakeside sites, some of which are only for folks with bicycles or on foot, and parking spots. There are shared food lockers, which is nice, and the cleanest park bathrooms I've ever had the pleasure of using. Dogs are welcome at the park, but with the stadium arrangement of tiers, their noises carry through the whole grounds. Truck noise! Stadium arrangement means all sites are straight to the lake, with precious few trees. Across the lake is a major road used for logging, and the logging trucks stop at 11pm, and begin again at 3:21am. Bring earplugs, and be aware, they may not be enough.

We stayed here a few weeks ago, it was very clean and easy to get to. Absolutely beautiful views and access to the lake (although the store was already closed for the season- so we couldn't rent kayaks which was very disappointing) The ONLY thing I can say after reading some reviews about the place... it is QUIET!!! Like too quiet... people were saying the noise from the road was too loud, uh yeah because that's literally all you can hear because the campground is as quiet as a fly🤣🤣 I swear after 6pm not a single noise was being made for the rest of the night, you could hear someone cough, laugh, a baby cry... we felt bad TALKING at 8pm. We wanted to play our music quietly but didn't- feeling like we'd annoy someone. Also the noise from the road is not that loud🫡 For some people this might be what you're looking for in a campground, but for us we want to talk, play our music (quietly) and have fun while we're in nature and this just wasn't the vibe here. Obviously this is our opinion and im giving it 4 stars because the store was closed a month before the campground closed for the season.

This place had a nice view, and lake side campsites get really close to the water but if you want to get something from your car or use the bathroom, you have to walk through a steep slope. The bathroom was not that clean. There are plenty of running water faucets throughout the campsite. Shared bear safe

I just got home from my stay. I will start off by saying that this is one of if not the most beautiful campsites I have ever stayed at. The water was gorgeous and the fresh breeze through the forest was amazing. There was only one problem I had with my stay, one of the park rangers. A redheaded park ranger who refused to give me her name was not only incredibly rude to me and my family but also heavily racist. She continued to be micro aggressive whilst commenting words such as “fiesta” and “gracias”. I understand that these words may not seem offensive to the masses, but in our situation they were just downright unnecessary and unwelcoming. For what it’s worth, she was driving a park-owned white SUV with the license plate number 2910X. Thank you.
