Tahkenitch Campground provides a peaceful and private camping experience, set amidst beautiful old-growth Sitka spruce with ample shade and birdlife. The campground is clean, with flush toilets and running water, and offers convenient access to hiking trails and nearby stores. However, the noise from Highway 101 can be disruptive, and some visitors noted issues with overflowing trash and a lack of camp hosts for maintenance.

Very nice campground, just be aware that many of the sites that say they can fit a trailer cannot. If you are pulling a camper, you may want to check ahead to make sure there is actually room for it to fit…. Also, love how there is hiking trails to the beach right there and it is close to the lake

There is a lot to do AROUND this campground (including a great dunes hike loop that starts at the parking lot, tahkenitch lake across the highway). The campground itself? Very small, largely uneven sites with tent site VERY close to the fire ring, no general open area except for heavily used day use area outside of the campground. Clean, but small. And RIGHT on highway with abundant road noise. Trees provide some privacy at some sites. Bathrooms were clean, but only 1 of two stalls was in order. Biggest problem was that there was apparently double booking of our site (host was expecting someone else - but they never showed). Not sure but seems like this is a Recreation.gov problem that should be solved/addressed. Overall? Good safe place to pitch a tent in a pinch and we had a good time in the area but I would not choose this campground again.

Avoid campsite 22 at all cost. It is extremely small, and it is on the way to campsite 21. Thus, there is no privacy. There is also road noise from 101. The campground is also crowded and cramped.

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!

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.

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
