What Guests Are Saying

Whiting Campground is praised for its cozy, shady atmosphere and well-maintained sites, making it a great spot for camping and hiking. Many visitors enjoyed the privacy of the campsites and the friendly camp host, who provided firewood delivery. However, the lack of potable water and issues with some facilities, such as poorly maintained picnic tables and vault toilets, were noted as drawbacks.

Great campground. Nice shade. Good facilities. Sometimes it can be difficult to maneuver a larger RV. We make sure we drop the towed vehicle before we enter the campground. The water system was not working yet. Not sure what the problem was. It’s the first time we’ve been here and it wasn’t working. Fortunately we had plenty of water in our holding tank. The camp host was friendly and helpful.

There was no potable water anywhere in the entire campground. We had to go back in to town to get water.

Whiting is a beautiful shady campground. Because of a recent pipe main repair the water had not yet been tested for safety, so we brought in our own water. The camp spaces are really nice. The vault toilets well-maintained. No complaints. Thank you for some fun camping and hiking!!

To not have water available pretty much kills the camping experience. It seemed like the forest service people were just too lazy to turn it on.

Double campsite #11. Very shady and lots of room. Space for 4 cars but we had 3. Two large picnic tables! The worst part was a family reunion in the site next to us. They had other sites reserved but everyone gathered at that one site. We had to tell the children not to shout to each other in the morning and evening. It was unfortunate but nothing that we could do to prevent that large gathering.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
