Site A22 was awful. Absolutely no where to put a tent. We had to set up on the pavement driveway. Low branches hanging over the fire pit is a huge fire risk. They were just out of reach, so we couldn’t cut them even if we had the tools to. Sites along the A Loop are practically on top of each other, no privacy. The water wasn’t working either, which we did get notified ahead of time.

There was no water, and we had hung a tarp due to rain and were told we had to remove it or be fined. However, our site was large, the person hosting was very kind, the camp was beautiful, and we were very close to rainier national park, so we had a lot of hiking and outdoor options.

Amazing campground despite no water. Campground was clean, bathrooms were close. Big camping spots . Helpful hosts. 2 fun mini hikes from the campground to a small waterfall (Purcell) and an icy cold swimming hole (Blue hole). Magical river running by the campground. campground is about 10 minutes from the entrance gate to Mt Rainier national park
