From jct I-5 (exit 135) & Hwy-167N: Go 4 mi E on Hwy-167N.
Visited friends, had a nice spot for the week near the pool. I think there is some kind of problem with the sewage though cause it smells like poop. It even smelled inside their fifth wheel. Expensive place and the weekly rate is ridiculous. $800/month yet $400/ week?!? How much sense does that make?
We booked a 50 Amp full hookup. When we arrived they said they only had 30 Amp available, all 50s were taken. Then we were put right next to the very smelly dumpsters. There are metal plates all over covering work on the water pipes, but in the week we were here there was absolutely no work being done. Their water source is evidently a well and a chlorine smell is prevalent...did not use the washers for fear of the chlorine and bought bottled water to drink. Units are right on top of each other. We could not cook or sit outside because of the bugs around the dumpsters. Do yourself a favor, book elsewhere. I took some pics but can't figure how to share them here.
Although the majority of the folks here are very welcoming, along with the office person managing the park, sites packed together with not much more than 2' between RVs. Water volume is very low leaving it difficult to flush toilet adequately or use an on demand water heater during peak times and marginal other times. FIRE, with RVs this packed in, a fire would take all! Glad I will be out of here this weekend..
CLEAN, AFFORDABLE, SECURE. ALL AMENITIES, NEAR EVERYTHING BUT FAR ENOUGH AWAY YOU CAN HEAR THE EAGLES FIGHTING OVER LUNCH and other birds including some local chickens that started visiting us when they were chick's a year ago. Cute. Hatched nearby I gather... here last summer. They too keep coming back. 🐔
The park offers so much....full hook ups and great water pressure. AND nice folks around here that make the place comfy and welcoming. One example of a steller staff is: ROSA! She IS MY HERO. We had electrical issues and tney werent resolved by closing time. Electrical company no showed. Ugh. It was cold out...freezing. We had no power. Rosa knew it'd be a miserable night with no electric or heat. The day came to a close still no Electrical company. Rosa took it upon herself on her own time after work and went to get 100 feet of cord to connect us to the piwerr grid. It worked. As ours site electric was dead- i was grateful. She had to drive 3 to 5 miles to get one. Thats caring and good service and considering the temps....its even nicer when you note it was gonna be a cold cold night at 22 degrees...no heater? Well thanks to Rosa we had heat. Thank you wonderful lady. She cared enough for our welfare and comfort... I'm grateful and that's some service I live! Thanks fir going the extra mile Rosa.
The neighbors and staff never bother or intrude. BOTTIM LINE: ITS A GREAT VALUE but getting better as they complete improvements. From propane, and on-site laundry to mail service if you stay longer like us.... bath/shower house with CLEAN BRIGHT showers... its worth a stay i say. Competitive prices with those things too... located near everything you could want.
Close by include GOOD MEDICAL CARE, DENTAL, CHURCHES, WEED, PUBS, RESTAURANTS to USPS... EVEN THE STATE FSIR GROUNDS IN PUYALLUP. AND I CANT FORGET THE MSNY NEWER CASINOS...AND CLUBS AND PERFORMING ARTS AnD CONCERTS AT THE CASINOS TOO.
hospitals, etc.
* NOT wilderness-like... but lots of birds because of proximity to wet lands...and a view from the road of Mt. Rainier volcano! Surrounded by wet lands area and farming.
Highly recommend.
I've lived and worked at the RV park now I'm living in the mobile home area. I recommend both. However if you become a resident of a mobile home just know your rent will increase every year. That's the only thing that I don't like. Also there were promised improvements 3 years ago that have yet to be seen. Overall I still rate highly as a place to visit or live.
