The campground is beautiful. The hikes are glorious. This is the perfect campground, except the campground host Stephanie. She lacks basic communication skills, let alone the skills needed to be in this position. Unable to manage a simple conflict, she escalated a nonsituation into a huge event, one she concluded by standing in our camp telling us that "people like you need to find somewhere else". People like you, still isn't clear if she meant disabled or LGBTQ, either way its gross and unacceptable. I would absolutely go back, but not if she was working. We ended up leaving two days early .

Love this campground. Managed to get a great spot right along the river (D loop is great!). Very close to Ohanapecosh and not far to the Naches Peak loop hike. So many great places to explore if you make this your base! The pit toilets weren’t great when we arrived - some pretty full and messy. The port-a-pits close to our site were really full. However, the next day was apparently septic day and and toilets were clean and empty! Also it was unclear when check out/check in was - different times were listed at the campground vs. the online reservation info

No flush toilets, only vault/pit.
Campsites were nice and spaced apart.
Firewood from host was a little pricey at $8 a bundle.

Our family have been camping at La Wis Wis since 2013. We love the location, it's beautiful, peaceful and we have never had any problems with the host. Every summer there is different hosts. But we had never had a problem. The bathroom do get messy, but there is a lot of people. We take our portable toilet so we have no problem there.
If you like the outdoors, there is a lot to do all around the area. From hiking to fishing, swimming (water very) my kids love getting in the water. We can spend hrs just skipping stones on the river. One of the things I love about this camping site is all the beautiful trees. Since we been going there hasn't ever been a problem with campfire been prohibited. Not at La Wis Wis, that I love. Camping with out campfire is no fun. And I love waking up to the sound of the river.

We stayed at site 12 in H loop. H loop was nice and private, but no running water. The restroom was open, but no faucet to wash your hands so make sure to bring water tanks. The Blue Hole was just a few minute walk and it was so pretty. It was quiet during the night. I like this campsite better than Ohanapecosh for easier access!
