My camp site was perfectly clean and attractive. The only improvement to the campground would be to have all the water pumps in operation (one was out of order) and easier to pump.

Love this place- it was worth having the senior discount not applicable and having to drive back out to cell reception to get a campsite. It would be great if the website told us that in advance so we could have planned better. We knew there were plenty of campsites available so we wanted to check them out first and pay at the campground but it all worked out.

Nice campsites with good spacing. Multiple access points to Lewis River and Falls. Hiking trail from the campground!
Quiet by 9p and hosts were excellent.

Gorgeous campground with really close access to the Lewis River and waterfalls. This campground was smaller than the other national parks, which we enjoyed, but less private and spaced apart. The hosts were awesome and kind. I only deduct a star because the bathrooms were nearly inhabitable because of the smell. We just peed in the woods most of the time though.

Our absolutely FAVORITE park campground. The campground itself is a destination. The lower falls campground has a number of hiking and meandering trails around it with the big to-do being within minutes of the campsite!!! The falls are breathtaking. Both my young teens jumped in to the fridges waters - crystal clear and memorable. The facilities were minimal but with the activities, we never felt we were missing out on any needs. Fresh potable water gave us a source for drinking and food prep and clean up. The restrooms were a bit stinky, but it’s the usual set up.
Now, what makes this place stand out are the natural amenities! So many trail access points and the upper falls river was calm in late August so we could play along the edge and even hike up along the river. We skipped rocks and were mesmerized by the smooth and unique riverbed carved out by the rushing water over centuries.
Totally try to stay in the lower falls loop - it has much easier access to the river and you can even hear it as you drift off to sleep at night!

This campground is amazing, and Upper site 27 exceeded our expectations. The camp is clean, has regular maintenance of vault toilets and trash cans, and there is a hand pump for drinking water. Camp host Chris was incredibly friendly and helpful during our stay. Site 27 is large, shaded by trees, in earshot of the river, private, with a short walk to the toilets. The camp is surrounded by trails and has easy access to hike to 4 waterfalls along the Lewis River. We will absolutely stay here again.
Also, zero service on T-Mobile, which was nice to get to disconnect.
