Tahkenitch Landing

Very clean and beautiful camp sites. The lake was beautiful and the fingers out from it had an amazing mix of wildlife.

We love camping at Tahkenich landing lake, the camp host are amazing people, and we are so close to the water and have not encountered ang mosquitos,
Wonderful place to camp

Generally very pleasant low key campground with a fair bit of Hwy 101 road noise during the day, quiets down at night. A lot of clueless campers these days (a couple mistakenly occupied our reserved site due to not reading the site number correctly). The current camp hosts (July/Aug 2021) are real gems, very helpful and diligent in their duties, did a great job reducing conflicts between campers, always available. They get 5 + stars.

The Recreation.gov reservations website, on the other had gets zero or negative stars. It is expensive, clunky, difficult to use and is apparently selling reservations to scalpers who then re-sell them marked up on Craigslist, etc. This is one reason you can’t reserve a site online, yet when you get to the campground, many sites go unoccupied. Bring back First Come First Served!!

Beautiful lake view but little space at campsite, not level, no privacy. I stayed at site #3 to be close to the water. And there is no running water at the site!

The site layout is very poor. We were literally on top of each other and could barely find a flat enough spot to camp. The tent sites had big dips in them. The hosts were very pleasant and helpful. It was just too many sites crammed into a small spot. The lake was beautiful and fairly warm too. Also, close to the dunes for some fun. Trailers: we had a 25 ft trailer that was supposed to fit in the spot we reserved. there was no way to make the corners getting into that spot given where they put the dividing posts. luckily we reserved two spots (because we were with another group) and pulled through two spots to make it work.

We stayed in site 13. The Campground was quiet and clean, the lake was nice with a good dock and ramp. Highway noise was quite noticeable. Our site was big enough for a car, a tent the picnic table and a fire ring, but with little room to spare. Sites 10, 11, 12, and 13 are lined up like sardines with no division. All are small, and 11 is shaped like a bowl. Some other sites in the Campground are large with nice trees and vegetation separating them.

Great

While it may be tempting to stay here because its on the water, be warned. Most of the sites are right on top of one another without so much as a bush or tree between you. Our spot, 20 we were literally a fence post away from the neighbors tent and their 6 rambunctious children who awoke at 7 am screaming, every morning. Stay at the less crowded Tahkenitch campground thats less than a mile down the road. More space for and there are actual trees in sites. Site 29 was fairly private and enjoyable.

Very poorly marked campground. Dead ends so you have to back out with your rv to get to next loop. #24 is at the downhill descent so you are backing up a hill, major blind spot trying to get into a severely uneven campsite. Will not stay here again. Other sites small and not appropriate for rv or travel trailers

Nice campground by the lake.
