Great spot. Felt very private with tree coverage and didn’t flood when it rained all night. Close to the highway but I don’t think the noise is too bad. Bathrooms are not a far walk and beach access is just a little further. Overall a really great spot!!

Kalaloch is a scenic area but many of the sites are less than optimal and the weather is often cold and very overcast (12' of rain per year). So before making the long drive to come stay there it's good to know about these things in advance. Another consideration is that there are so many RV's there now that one wonders whether the park cares about the needs of the campers camping there in tents. There is a new generation of campers who seem to be unaware of the etiquette. We saw many people using the water spigots as a dishwashing area. Many of them probably don't know that when you come to a campground like this campers are supposed to come with dishpans so as to be able to wash dishes at the campsite - NOT at the water spigot! It is very unsanitary and unsightly. I even witnessed a camper bringing his dogs to lick the water spigot for a drink of water. At many campgrounds there are signs telling campers NOT to wash their dishes at the water spigot. If the campground management would simply put signs at the water spigots (and possibly mention it in the notification email) it would undoubtedly go a long way toward remedying this unsanitary and unsightly problem.

The campground was great! Very close to the ocean and had a fun ranger program.

Our favorite camp site! Even with burn ban and some of the water spouts not working just plan ahead with all you might need and still a great time

Next to impossible to get a reservation. When I booked one at the four day release date it only booked one of the two days. Reservation system is highly flawed

What a beautiful place. Campground is well run, one of the better National Parks I have been to.

Great location, but unfortunately our campsite was terrible. It was extremely tight, with a tree on one side and a picnic table on the other, and the site was also very uneven and sloped. The toilets were disgusting. The location is nice, but we definitely cannot recommend this particular campsite.

Cool fantasy forest area to explore. Site A6 said tent pad was 8x8. There’s no specific tent pad. We easily fit two backpacking tents (2 and 3 person) at the site. Water spigot not working but no directions for where to find a working one. Easy walk to beach and Tree of Life.
