Excellent RV park on doth side of Mt St Helen's. 9 miles from Ape Caves. Place is under new ownership and they have done a great job improving on things. Wifi works great and plenty of shade. Bathrooms are kept clean.
This is not a great campground. Our spot was right next to the highway, which was weird and unexpected. It felt like we were on display for the drivers on the highway.
The toilet rooms were not clean. The light was out in one of them and replaced with a dim motion activated battery light.
The owners of this park go above and beyond for their guests. My two sisters along with myself were solo traveling and ran into a lack of campgrounds in the town we had to stay for the night. We ended up going to 5 different campsites all completely booked up and by perfect timing we ran into the owner at a gas station who recognized us and told us to follow her back to her camp where she was kind enough to give us a spot for the night. If it wasn’t for her we would’ve ended up staying on the side of the road. I can’t thank her enough for being such a kind person.
Steve and Stacy (owners) have really fixed the park up nice . Shady with lots of trees but spots where the sun shines in . We have been having extended family camping here every august since they bought the place . Some family have rented cabins while most are in RVs with full hook ups . We usually stay over a week . We walk to the stores and rustic restaurants close by and they have adult beverages available , I ride my bike ,play basketball with the grands or we go to the ape caves for a fun day or the lake for fishing and swimming . The camp owners will do everything possible to make you stay relaxing and fun . They have specially coffees and ice and a few other things available in a small store on site. We already have plans for our next stay in august of 2024 .
My dad and I stayed here for our Mt St Helen’s hike. Prior to our hike I was emailing back and fourth with Stacy (possible owner). She was so kind and reassured me she saved us our campsite. When we arrived I met her in person. She was so kind! She gave us information and a map so we were prepared for the hike. The morning after our hike we went in to get some coffees. She remembered we were going on a hike and said she was watching out for us. She said that if we didn’t return she had help on standby to send for us. I thought that was very genuine of her. We told her about the hike and some of the issues we faced. She said she was even going to inform the correct people to see if changes could be made. She was a great source of information and a true kind person. I will definitely recommend this campsite!
