Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort Campground

We loved our trip out to Sol Duc Campground. Peaceful, great weather, good sites. The only thing for our stay that was a downer was the bathrooms and water in loop A were out of order, which isn't ideal using a pit toilet, but it is what it is. We chose to drive around to Loop B when we really needed to use the facilities, which wasn't too much of a hassle really. Can't wait to come back.

Showed up with restrooms closed (loop A) with no advanced notice. Portapotties provided had no toilet paper. We did receive a notification the next day, not much help to be honest.

Very clean and well maintained campground. Bathrooms have flushing toilets and running water for sinks. Close to the hot springs but not so close to them that you smell that sulphur stank. It’s about a 20 min walk to that waterfall trail, or probably a 5 min drive.

Will definitely be camping here again. The hot springs were relaxing, the falls were beautiful, and the old growth Douglas-fir and Western Hemlock left a lasting impression on me.

Beautiful campsites in the midst of large trees, quiet, idyllic and perfect for us. We loved the waterfall hike that started right from the campgrounds. The hot springs was a plus - just a short drive from the campground. Loved it!!!

Found staff working hard to serve campers while quite short staffed and dealing with unexpected events (ie no towel delivery). Would love to see camp sites better accommodate tents (tent pads that are tent peg and air mattress friendly rather than sharp hard gravel pads) and hammock tents. Would also love to see more walk-in sites that cater to cycle touring.

It was my first time visiting Sol Duc and I was very impressed. The short hike to Sol Duc Falls was beautiful. The whole family enjoyed the scenery and waterfalls. Lastly, Hot Spring is outstanding experience. I definitely highly recommend Sol Duc Hot Spring Resort.

I was not impressed.
IMHO, the Sol Duc Hot Springs resort in the Olympic National Park is a total waste of time and money. We paid to stay three nights in the "RV campground" which turns out to be just a big, dusty gravel parking lot. No Cell service or Wi-Fi. No bathrooms or showers. We had electricity and water at our site, but no sewer connection. You had to go 1/2 mile down the road to another campground for a toilet.
After driving a complete loop around the entire Olympic peninsula, this "resort" was the only area we found where you have to pay National Park entry fees. In addition, after paying entry and camping fees, they still wanted $18 per person ($12 for kids and seniors) to splash around in their artificial concrete "hot springs" pools for 90 minutes.
While there is some beautiful scenery and some interesting features in the Olympic National Park, I would avoid the Sol Duc Hot Springs resort.

Stayed at Loop A Site 001: Our site was awesome! The kids were able to push through some limbs and have access to the river. There is a massive stump to climb up and play on top of. Tent area is in full shade almost all day. Bring a pop up tent and table cloth for the picnic table as it is in rough shape and full sun in the afternoon. Only downfall is the site is at the bottom of a hill. So you must carry your gear up and down the hill each day. No bear box either so stowing equipment each night was a bit of work. As for the campground, it needs some TLC. The bathroom closest to us had toilets out of order in the mens room. The family and mens bathroom sinks were also out of order so my kids went into the womens each time to wash up. The Hot Springs were nice, nothing too fancy. Beer and wine available in the shop at a fair price. DON'T buy wood from the gift shop! You can find it anywhere for $5 but the gift show at Sol Duc sells it for $10.99.
