Clean bathrooms, good views of Rainier, star gazing. Dishwashing sinks are super helpful. No cell reception. Tent sites are often tiny tiny.

About Cougar Rock Campground
Cougar Rock Campground, on the southwest side of Mt. Rainier National Park, is conveniently located near Paradise. Individual campsites are reservable on this page. Group campsite reservations can be made via Cougar Rock Group Campground.
Paradise is the most popular destination in the park, with a lodge and visitor center, many miles of hiking trails and a commanding view of the mountain-the highest in the state and Cascade range. The main attraction at Mount Rainier National Park is the mountain itself, a massive glacier-clad volcano, peaking at 14.4 ft. and dominating the skyline for hundreds of miles. Visitors travel through majestic old-growth forests, past tumbling waterfalls and historic buildings to reach sub-alpine meadows, where world-famous wildflower displays bloom through July and August. Popular activities in the park include sight-seeing, hiking, rock climbing and camping.
Cougar Rock campground is located at an elevation of 3.2 ft. Summers are dry and cool with daytime temperatures ranging from 60 to 80 degrees. Weather throughout the park can be variable, so visitors should come prepared.

Lovely campground which has been ignored. A crew needs to come in and clean out all the downed tree debris. Something also needs to change with regards to cancellations, so many unused campsites, so sad for those who are unable to procure a site.

Bathrooms were clean and near the campsite. Site was permitted for 15 ft rig but we had a 19 ft rig that fit just right. Close to the next campsite but not overbearing. Quiet a night. Not much more you can ask for.

Great location, restrooms were clean. We were close to the restrooms so lots of people kept walking through out campsite to get to the restrooms. Trash bins were convenient. Good hiking close by.
