Great little campground next to the lake! Perfect for swimming and paddle boarding. Campsites were cozy (close together), but otherwise excellent. Fire pits with grills, lots of shade, easy access to water, and a nice littler creek running through things. Men's bathroom was out of order, but there were porta potties available. We found firewood a short drive away at the mercantile store in Amanda Park. This campground is also a very short walk from Quinault Lodge, which is a nice place to hang out and have a drink.

Great site, right across from the boat ramp and easy to enjoy lake views. Bathroom only had one working stall for women and there was often a line. Plenty of room for parking and tents, and water was available. Lots of mosquitos since it’s near water, so prepare for that. Great campground!

I LOVED our trip here. So peaceful. I highly recommend the walk up sites 8, 9, 10. By far the most private. There were some problems like just one working toilet plus two very full porta potties for the entire campground, there was a 2x6 missing from our picnic table and there was a stray cat around our campsite a lot trying to get in all our food but besides those things it was so serene and peaceful. Really happy with our particular campsite. Others are really exposed/not private. Lake is gorgeous and hiking is great.

Very nice campground. Has great access to forest land and is about and hour and a half to olympic NP. Very nice beach front view of lake quinault. Temporary mens bathroom facility’s were a little sub par, but those will be up soon. overall very nice!

When I reserved here, the map showed no one next to me. When my son and I arrived, we were right next to the host site. No host was ever there the whole time. I ended up answering questions and giving directions to people over and over again, acting like the host. One lady had a paid reservation and it was for site 2 which were the hosts spot. The host missing had prime beach area set up with chairs and a cooler the whole time we were there, not allowing anyone to use the area, along with their watercraft. I spent the time there watching people arrive, confused and with questions and confusion on what to do, where to go, how to pay, etc. We were not able to set up our tent until later as I had questions about where to set it up. My trip was ruined. It's our annual trip and it was a four hour drive to get there. I asked for a refund but was denied. It just broke my heart and made me feel exasperated as it took planning and money and time to go. At least if the host is going to be a complete no show, put a note of communication so people are alerted. I am not a host. But a senior whose anticipated annual birthday trip was ruined

The place was literally a sxxt-hole. The men’s bathroom was locked with an “Out of Service” sign on it. The women’s restroom had one working toilet. My wife told me the bathroom was disgustingly filthy. Two ADA Sani-Cans were provided but both were nearly overflowing. We had registered for the entire week but only stayed one night

Very fortunately for us, Willaby Campground, a mile away, had a site that opened up. We grabbed it.

Falls Creek is a pretty little campground. Even though it's close to the road, the sound of running water drowns out the road noise The view of the lake is perfect and it's a great place to go swimming. The trail network across the road is stunningly beautiful, offering lots of options for distance and scenery. Hopefully there will be funds to repair/replace the restroom building, the men's was closed and the women's was in need of repairs when I was there Sept. '26. Most of the drive in sites are medium sized, some with a bit more privacy than others. The walk-in sites along the creek are secluded and a couple of them sit under huge old trees. There weren't many bugs and the aggressive Douglas Squirrels common in other parts of ONP were largely absent from Falls Creek, possibly due to a mother cat raising a litter of kittens in the campground. This is a good place for tent and van campers, although some of the vehicle pads aren't flat, the tent pads are good. There are a few spaces that can fit small motor homes and small trailers
