Tahkenitch Campground

Cramped campsites with zero privacy. Left the campground immediately when I spotted my campsite. The surrounding activities are excellent, but unless you’re in the mood for a non-private group experience this is not the place for you.

Very disappointed with this campground. We reserved a spot for a 12 ft trailer and truck, we were able to reserve site #30 so we assumed it would be able to accommodate our equipment. Upon arrival of our site it could only accommodate a compact car so we had to park the truck and trailer by the restrooms on the grass. Later that night the camp host "Gypsy" told us we would need to move immediately. There was no where for us to move to so we ended up leaving the truck and trailer parked on the grass by the restrooms. We left the following morning at 5am and didn't stay the next night even though we had it for 2 nights.

Someone was in our campsite and we were told that the sites had all been overbooked because of an issue on recreation.gov. We weren’t able to get a spot in the campground so had to camp in the trailhead parking lot because it was past 10pm and there was no service to call other campgrounds.

It was nice enough, however, I reserved a spot for one vehicle and one pop up trailer. After I had my site set up the park ranger came by the next day and said I had to move my trailer onto the parking spot and would have to pay extra to park in the day parking area. That was not posted anywhere at the site nor on the website when I made the reservation which specifically said the spot was for one trailer AND one vehicle.

Campsite was incredibly close to the highway, and very exposed to those around it. Good location in terms or things to do nearby, but would not recommend sites 1-4

Bathroom bad. Water questionable. Hazards on pad.

Nice time. It was clean and quiet.

Depending on the site, you may have decent privacy. There are quite a few large trees in the sites for ample dappled sun in the afternoon. Flush toilets are nice although one stall was out of order in the ladies room while we were there. It was very quiet aside from some road noise. This campground is 1000% better than Tahkenitch landing campground.

Nice campground, once you get off road

The campground is nice. The only thing we didn't care for were the fact that most of the sites were accessed by stairs or step type areas. And from what we could tell, a lot of the sites were meant to share with another family. They were close together with no privacy. Or you had to walk through one to get to another. But not all of them are like that. I would suggest a visit to scout good sites ahead of time before booking. Bathrooms were clean and stocked. The hiking trails are really nice!
