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 (11.6 ft) 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.

My recent trip to the Hoh Rainforest and campground truly was a five star experience. My partner and I stayed in loop C, site 80 and folks let me tell you...this is the best camp site in all of the loops. Site 80 offers you the ability to camp a bit off the beaten path and offers you some privacy away from your neighbors. The campground was quiet and well kept. I would recommend brining your own toilet paper as the mens bathroom was without for more than a day.

Great campground, but took forever to wait in line to get back into the campground as it was on the way into the national park. The park really needs a second lane for campground guests so we don't have to wait with others trying to see the park. The park recommends coming into the park before 10am or after 5pm to avoid the wait times which helped some days, not all though.

Amazing place. Great facilities and was happy to have firewood for purchase during allowable burning levels. Pack what you need, so you don't have to wait in line more than once to get into the park.

Honestly, I was a bit worried because the site I booked (2/3 A) was one of the last available, and we were coming up just before July 4th (we stayed the 30th-2nd). But, turned out to be great! It was super quiet, we were never disturbed my neighbors, and the bathrooms were across the street.

Now, the water in the womens bathroom was out, and there was a walking path threw our campsite - however, those felt fairly minor.

There are 3 hikes - 2 of which are about a mile each, and the 3rd is 18 mi. Hall of Mosses was beautiful.

We also hit Sol Duc hot springs on our way home!

We were only camped at the Hoh Rainforest for two nights, which definitely wasn’t enough, but we loved every bit of it and want to get back. The campsites were nice and clearly marked, the bathrooms were clean, and the trails were well maintained.
