About Hoh Rainforest Campground

 The reservation season for the 2026 summer season for the Hoh campground is June 12, 2026 - September 6, 2026.Important information about booking windows: To better serve visitors, Hoh Campground will be releasing campsites in a series of three staggered block releases by loop. These block releases will be 6 months in advance, two weeks in advance, and 4 days in advance. • A loop campsites will be available for reservation 6 months in advance.• C loop campsites will be available for reservations two weeks in advance.• B loop campsites will be available for reservations 4 days in advance.  Outside the reservation season, Hoh Campground is open for camping on a first-come, first-served basis. Some campsites may be closed during winter.  The Hoh Rain Forest, pronounced "Hoe", earns its name from the ever-flowing Hoh River that carves its way from Mount Olympus towards the Pacific Coast. However, where the name originates, is up for debate. The word "Hoh" undoubtedly comes from Native American languages; possibly the Quileute word "Ohalet" which means "fast moving water" or "snow water." Since the river itself forms from glacial runoff, that origin seems straightforward. Other explanations state that the Quinault word "Qu," meaning "boundary," could be the root of the name as a river as massive as the Hoh certainly forms a formidable boundary across the landscape. A third consideration claims that the word "Hoh" translates to "man with quarreling wives." What the actual history behind the name is, appears to be lost to time. Regardless of the name, there's no question as to the allure that draws visitors back to the rainforest year after year. Throughout the winter season, rain falls frequently in the Hoh Rain Forest, contributing to the yearly average of 140 inches (3.55 meters) of precipitation each year. The result is a lush, green canopy of both coniferous and deciduous species. Mosses and ferns that blanket the surfaces add another dimension to the enchantment of the rainforest.

It was nice, the bad part was waiting an hour to get into the park to get to our reserved camping spot.

Hi Good People:
My wife and I stayed in Loop A, the Hot Rain Forest campground. It was one of the quietest campgrounds we ever experienced. (Also, according to staff, it has the best cell reception, at least for Verizon from my experience.) The two nature trails are in walking distance from our campsite. They were superb! The staff at the Visitor Center were very helpful with my questions on other campgrounds along US 101. The Rialto Beach and Hole in the Rock are a must see, about one hour or so from the campground. Just remember when coming back into the campground, the later the better as traffic does back up from 10 to 3 according to the National Park Service. Our two times coming back were short waits as they were after 3pm. We will be back!

Spot 83 was a huge disappointment. We had to leave after one night even though we paid for three (and I wasn’t able to cancel the other two for some reason). The tent spot is within just 2-3 feet of the fire ring so we could not safely have a campfire. Of course this meant the mosquitos and other biting insects were able to go wild. We could not hang at the site. It was unbearable. This site needs to be closed and redone. Keep in mind that the C loop restroom has no hand soap (even in the covid era…shocking).
