Riverside Camping & RV Resort

100 RV Sites

Riverside Camping and RV Resort in Whistler, British Columbia, offers 100 RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 51 feet, open all year — the only RV and camping resort within the Resort Municipality of Whistler. Voyageur full service categories at both amperages join partial service and multi-use tiers, with a disc golf course, mini-golf, and on-site dining. One hundred sites span Voyageur full service 30-amp, Voyageur full service 50-amp, Voyageur partial service, and Voyageur multi-use categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 51 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Confirm your tier before booking, as the partial service category does not carry the full hookup set. Cabins round out the lodging. A laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. A disc golf course and mini-golf anchor the on-site recreation, with sports courts, volleyball, bocce ball, gem mining, walking trails, hiking, biking, a pond, lake, creek, playground, and on-site dining filling the rest. Skiing is minutes away. Pets are welcome. Being inside the municipality is the whole proposition. Whistler Blackcomb is the largest ski resort in North America, and the same terrain becomes one of the continent's most complete summer adventure destinations — the Whistler Mountain Bike Park, the Peak-to-Peak Gondola, the Valley Trail, the Whistler Sliding Centre, Olympic Plaza, and the Trans Canada Trail are all reachable without a car. Both ski season and summer bike season drive hard demand. Reserve as far ahead as you can for December through March and July through September.

Sun Retreats Birch Bay

271 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites, 5 Onsite RV/Trailers

Sun Retreats Birch Bay in Blaine, Washington, offers 276 full-hookup RV sites and 10 tent sites two miles from the Canadian border, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet, open all year behind a gated entrance.

Two hundred seventy-six sites span full hookup back-in 50/30/20-amp, full hookup pull-thru 50/30/20-amp, open full hookup back-in 50/30/20-amp, and open full hookup pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables. The open categories give more space and light for guests who prefer it to a treed site. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The property was formerly Beachwood RV Resort. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a fitness center, clubhouse, disc golf course, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, golf cart rentals, a playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Biking, fishing, swimming, and picnicking round it out, with a golf course and a state park nearby. Pets are welcome. Birch Bay sits at the northernmost edge of Whatcom County, where Semiahmoo Bay and the protected waters of Drayton Harbor make a marine environment of unusual beauty. Birch Bay State Park adjoins the resort, and Vancouver is a short drive north. Summer is decisively the season in the Pacific Northwest. Reserve well ahead.

Mountainaire Campground and RV Park

26 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 16 Tent Sites, 3 Onsite RV/Trailers

Mountainaire Campground and RV Park in Nanaimo, British Columbia, is a full-spectrum camping destination on Vancouver Island with RV sites at 30 and 50-amp service, cabins, tent sites, and on-site RV and trailer rentals in the lush green setting of the Nanaimo Regional District — a campground positioned on British Columbia's most populous island, the second-largest city on Vancouver Island, and the primary ferry gateway between the BC Lower Mainland and the island's west coast communities, parks, and the Pacific Rim's rain forest and surf beach landscape. Nanaimo's regional district position on the Strait of Georgia gives the campground the full Vancouver Island orientation — north to the Comox Valley and Campbell River, south to Victoria, and west to the Alberni Inlet, Pacific Rim National Park, and Tofino. RV sites at 30 and 50-amp service, cabins, tent sites, and on-site RV and trailer rentals give Mountainaire the accommodation range to serve the full spectrum of Vancouver Island camping visitors — the rental RV and trailer option specifically enables guests who travel without their own equipment to experience the island in a self-contained camping format that the BC Ferry's vehicle deck specifically accommodates, and the cabin option gives the accommodation-seeking couple or family the Vancouver Island outdoors experience without the equipment logistics of tent camping in the Island's frequent maritime rain. Pets are welcome. Vancouver Island's natural landscape is among the most diverse and most spectacular in Canada — the Island encompasses old-growth Douglas fir and western red cedar forests whose individual trees exceed 800 years in age, the Strathcona Provincial Park's wilderness alpine above 2,200 metres, the passive and active volcanic terrain of the Island's central spine, and the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve's 75 kilometres of surf-pounded beach on the island's southwest coast where the Long Beach Unit's ancient temperate rainforest meets the open Pacific in the most dramatic coastal landscape on the Canadian side of the North Pacific. Newcastle Island Marine Provincial Park, accessible by foot passenger ferry from Nanaimo's downtown waterfront, provides the most immediately accessible island wilderness walk from the city centre. Tofino, 180 kilometres west of Nanaimo via the Trans-Canada and Pacific Rim Highway, is one of Canada's most celebrated outdoor tourism destinations — a small coastal community at the end of the Tofino road whose Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, the Clayoquot Sound UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the world-class surfing at Chesterman Beach and Cox Bay, and the grey whale and black bear wildlife viewing sustain the specific outdoor adventure and eco-tourism economy that has made the Tofino area the premier BC coastal destination for the Vancouver and Victoria urban markets. Mountainaire Campground serves guests through the Vancouver Island camping season from spring through fall, with the BC Day long weekend in August representing the peak family camping demand and the spring and fall seasons sustaining the outdoor and cultural tourism from the Victoria and Vancouver markets that make year-round Island exploration viable in the Island's mild maritime climate. The Nanaimo Bathtub Race's summer tradition and the Vancouver Island MusicFest in Courtenay extend the campground's day-trip entertainment range into the Island's community festival calendar. Reserve sites, cabins, and rental RVs well ahead for the summer peak and BC Day weekend, when Vancouver Island campground availability across all accommodation formats fills from the mainland and international visitor market.

Rondalyn Camping & RV Resort

30 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 1 Cottage

The stretch of coastline between Nanaimo and Ladysmith on Vancouver Island is where the island's temperate interior and its marine-influenced climate combine to create the kind of deeply wooded, creek-threaded landscape that defines the West Coast at its most quietly beautiful. Rondalyn Camping & RV Resort sits on 35 acres of this terrain on the banks of Haslam Creek, nestled in the forest just five minutes from essential services in Ladysmith and a short drive from the ferry connections that link Vancouver Island to the BC mainland. This is a year-round resort that earns its place as one of the island's most complete camping destinations. The resort accommodates guests across full-hookup overnight and seasonal RV sites with 30- and 50-amp service, alongside rental cabins for those who prefer walls and a roof. A heated pool and a spa with hot tub provide warm-season and year-round relaxation that elevates Rondalyn well above the typical campground experience. A par-3 9-hole golf course — genuinely rare in campground amenity packages — gives golfers a gentle, scenic round without leaving the resort. Full laundry facilities, clean washrooms and showers, free Wi-Fi, a playground, outdoor grills, and a gated entrance ensure the practical and recreational fundamentals are covered. Haslam Creek defines the resort's natural character — the sound of moving water threading through the Douglas fir and cedar forest, with river fishing for trout providing an immediate outdoor experience right at camp. A stocked trout pond adds a reliable close-range fishing option for guests who want to cast without hiking far. Miles of hiking and biking trails through the surrounding woodland offer morning exercise with proper old-growth forest atmosphere. The resort's dog park welcomes four-legged travelers, and the forested setting naturally dampens ambient noise, creating genuine quiet that the word "campground" doesn't always promise. Ladysmith's historic 1st Avenue district preserves an attractive collection of heritage storefronts from the coal mining era, and the town's Transfer Beach Park offers a protected harbor swimming area and waterfront green space just down the road. Nanaimo, one of Vancouver Island's largest cities, is ten minutes north — with its waterfront boardwalk, Newcastle Island Marine Provincial Park, and ferry service to Horseshoe Bay in Metro Vancouver. The Cowichan Valley wine and cider region lies to the south, producing some of British Columbia's most distinctive terroir-driven beverages in a landscape of vineyards, cideries, and farm markets. Rondalyn is open year-round, and Vancouver Island's mild climate extends the comfortable camping season significantly beyond what mainland BC delivers. Winter camping here has genuine appeal — green, mild, and remarkably uncrowded. Spring brings the island's extraordinary wildflower and migratory bird seasons. Summer delivers the warmest, driest conditions and the busiest activity calendar across the island. Reserve early for summer stays and the BC Day long weekend in August. Come ready to breathe deeply — the forest air on Haslam Creek is its own kind of welcome.

West Beach Resort

11 RV Sites, 21 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites, 9 Glamping Sites

On the rocky western shore of Orcas Island—the largest of the San Juan Islands and the one that most consistently tops Pacific Northwest island rankings—West Beach Resort provides a waterfront campground that delivers the full San Juan Islands experience in a setting where kayak and SUP rentals, fishing charters, whale watching excursions, and a beachside cafe with gourmet espresso and made-to-order pizza anchor an outdoor recreation environment that the Salish Sea's extraordinary marine ecosystem makes possible. Ocean-view and non-view RV sites with power and water, tent sites, and platform camping positions serve the full accommodation spectrum for the ferry-riding camper who chooses Orcas Island as their Pacific Northwest island destination. Ocean-view and non-view RV sites with power and water connections accommodate self-contained rigs on the west beach's open and shaded positions, with each site including a picnic table and fire pit with grill. View and partial-view platform camping sites extend the accommodation options, and tent camping positions with varying levels of tree cover and privacy serve the non-motorized camping community. The on-site cafe's gourmet espresso, made-to-order pizza, Lopez Island Creamery ice cream, local draft beer, and a fully stocked mini-market with groceries, bait, and fishing supplies eliminate the need to drive into Eastsound for daily provisions. The resort's kayak, canoe, and SUP rentals place guests directly on the Salish Sea's protected Judd Cove waters—a marine environment where Steller sea lions, harbor seals, river otters, great blue herons, and bald eagles share the waterfront with campers who paddle in the kelp bed and tidal flat ecology that makes the San Juan Islands one of the most biologically productive marine ecosystems in the Pacific Northwest. Fishing charters for salmon, clamming and crabbing on the beach during the appropriate seasons, and daily beach bonfires through the summer season complete the waterfront recreation menu alongside volleyball, badminton, and ping pong for the guests who stay on shore. Moran State Park, accessible by a short drive across Orcas Island, encompasses 5,252 acres of the island's forested highlands around Cascade Lake and the summit of Mount Constitution—at 2,409 feet the highest point in the San Juan Islands, accessible by a hiking trail and a winding summit road revealing one of the most panoramic views in the Pacific Northwest, spanning the Olympic Mountains, the North Cascades, Vancouver Island, and the full extent of the San Juan archipelago. The park's Cascade Lake beach, rental rowboats, and the Cascade Creek trail system give West Beach campers a complete inland recreation alternative when the marine environment's tides and weather conditions favor a forest day. The San Juan Islands' temperate marine climate delivers mild summers with lower rainfall than mainland western Washington—a rain shadow effect from the Olympic Mountains that makes the islands sunnier and drier in the summer months when most camping visits occur. The ferry from Anacortes, a 75-minute sailing through the island-dotted Salish Sea, serves as the trip's first genuine scenic experience rather than simply a logistical step, and the island's lack of a direct land connection keeps the overnight visitor population small enough to feel genuinely remote despite the resort's full amenity complement. Reserve well ahead for summer dates—West Beach Resort's island position and marine recreation options create demand that fills the campground's limited site inventory months before peak season.

Oceanside Camping & RV Resort

43 RV Sites

Oceanside Camping & RV Resort in Saanichton, British Columbia, offers 43 full-hookup RV sites on the Saanich Peninsula, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 80 feet. Voyageur Full Service categories in both 30A and 50A configurations sit on an award-winning beachside property open all year, 15 minutes from the Swartz Bay ferry terminal. Forty-three sites run in 30A and 50A Voyageur Full Service categories carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 80 feet, with picnic tables and site WiFi. Cabins round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, recycling, and a pet washing station handle the practical side — the amenity buildings are spotlessly clean and modern, and the year-round operation reflects southern Vancouver Island's mild climate. Walking trails run the property, with a community fire pit, sports courts, pickleball, shuffleboard, ping pong, a playground, and a dog park on the grounds. Swimming, biking, and birding run from the area, with a beach, boating, a golf course, and wineries nearby. Pets are welcome. The position is genuinely useful. Swartz Bay's BC Ferries terminal is 15 minutes away, Sidney 10, and Victoria 20 minutes south — which makes this practical for anyone arriving or departing by ferry. Butchart Gardens, the Victoria Butterfly Gardens, the BC Aviation Museum, Heritage Acres, the Lochside Regional Trail, and the Saanich Peninsula wineries are all close. Summer is decisively the season on Vancouver Island. Reserve well ahead.

Sheridan Lake Resort

15 RV Sites, 11 Cabins

British Columbia's Highway 24 runs through the South Cariboo's Interlakes District carrying the unofficial title of the Fishing Highway — an earned designation that reflects what this stretch of interior BC is known for above all else. Sheridan Lake sits along this corridor in the hills of Lone Butte, and the resort bearing its name has spent decades building a reputation as one of the most complete destination fishing operations in the BC Interior. With 84 RV sites, 19 lakeside cabins, and a 36-slip marina, Sheridan Lake Resort is built from the ground up for anglers, yet the surrounding South Cariboo landscape offers enough beyond the lake to make a non-fishing companion's week equally worthwhile. The 8-acre property is organized around fishing access in a way that keeps gear, water, and accommodation in close proximity at all times. The full-service marina handles boat rentals and supplies, a fish-cleaning station processes the day's catch, and the 36 boat slips accommodate guests arriving with their own watercraft alongside those relying on the rental fleet. Lakeside cabin accommodations range from cozy one-room retreats to larger configurations suited to fishing groups, and the RV sites serve travelers arriving self-contained. Pets are welcome throughout the property, and the South Cariboo's legendary hospitality gives even a first-time guest the sense of stepping into an established tradition. Sheridan Lake's rainbow trout population is what draws anglers from across North America, and the numbers behind the fishery are extraordinary. The lake receives an annual stocking of 300,000 fish, and the combination of depth, cold temperature, and quality food supply produces trout that average roughly three pounds at maturity, with fish exceeding ten pounds landed every season. Weed beds, rocky shoals, and a series of islands create habitat complexity that makes both fly fishing and conventional trolling consistently productive from May through October. The peak surface-feeding windows of June and early July, when evening hatches bring fish up in visible numbers, are the weeks most devoted fly fishers plan their trips around. The surrounding South Cariboo landscape opens up 208 kilometers of mapped trail suitable for ATV riding, mountain biking, and hiking in the warmer months, and the same network converts to groomed snowmobile and cross-country skiing terrain through winter. Several authentic guest ranches within 30 minutes of the resort offer horseback riding and working-ranch experiences for guests extending their Cariboo trip beyond the lake, and the region's cowboy heritage — reflected in local rodeos, trail rides, and the particular character of small South Cariboo towns — provides a cultural counterpoint to the fishing focus. Restaurants, grocery, and golf are accessible within a half-hour drive, making supply runs fully practical throughout the season. Sheridan Lake Resort operates May through October, with the fishing season's peak productivity running through June and July for surface-feeding opportunities and September for pre-freeze feeding activity. The resort sits approximately eight hours from Seattle and five and a half hours from Vancouver, making it a genuine destination trip for Pacific Northwest anglers rather than a casual day outing — distances that the quality of the fishery consistently justifies. Cabin and site bookings for peak June and July weekends fill well in advance; reserving early is particularly important for fishing groups requiring multiple adjacent sites or cabins with good lake access.

Run with Alpacas Farm Stay

On 21 pastoral acres in Port Angeles, Washington—the gateway city to Olympic National Park on the north shore of the Olympic Peninsula—Run with Alpacas Farm Stay offers tent and car camping in open pastures and private lots alongside a working farm where alpacas, llamas, sheep, chickens, and ducks roam freely through the property and guests are invited each morning at 10 AM to help feed them. For travelers making the Olympic Peninsula pilgrimage and looking for an overnight experience with genuine character and warmth—something more personal than a campground and more authentically local than a hotel—the alpaca farm stay creates a base camp that combines farm life with Olympic Peninsula adventure in a way that is simply unavailable anywhere else in the region. Sites in the open pastures and private lots provide the flexibility of both community-oriented camping and more private options, with gravel cooking and seating areas, potable water, and accessible bathrooms at no extra charge. WiFi and device charging are available on-site, and the property's clean, well-maintained facilities reflect the care of owners who live on the farm and are deeply invested in every guest's experience. Private educational experiences with the alpacas and camelids are available by arrangement for guests who want a deeper behind-the-scenes look at the herd's personalities, health care, and the fiber production that runs from animal to yarn on the property. Guests are encouraged to bring thinly sliced apples and baby carrots to share during the morning feeding—a detail that immediately establishes the relationship between guest and animal that makes the farm stay memorable. Port Angeles sits on the Strait of Juan de Fuca across from Victoria, British Columbia, in Clallam County at the northern edge of the Olympic Peninsula. The city serves as the primary gateway to Olympic National Park—one of the world's most biologically diverse temperate ecosystems—and the ferry connection to Victoria makes it simultaneously an international border crossing and a dramatic scenic gateway for travelers entering the Pacific Northwest from the south. The surrounding landscape of temperate rainforest, glacier-capped Olympic peaks, and the rocky Strait shoreline creates the visual and ecological character that makes the Olympic Peninsula one of Washington's most extraordinary regional environments. Olympic National Park, 30 minutes from the farm, encompasses 1,442 square miles of three distinct ecosystems: the glacier-capped Olympic Mountains with over 600 miles of hiking trails, the temperate rainforests of the Hoh, Quinault, and Queets River valleys where annual rainfall exceeds 140 inches and Sitka spruce grow to extraordinary dimensions, and 73 miles of wild Pacific coastline. Hurricane Ridge, accessible from Port Angeles, provides the most dramatic high-elevation views in the park and winter skiing access to the park's only downhill ski area. Sol Duc Hot Springs, Crescent Lake's milky glacial-fed waters, and the tide-pooled coast at Ruby Beach represent some of the park's most rewarding individual experiences within day-trip range. The farm stay operates throughout Washington's dry season from late spring through early fall, with the Olympic Peninsula's weather most cooperative from June through September. The morning animal feeding ritual and the farm's peaceful pastoral atmosphere make for a particularly restorative camp experience between ambitious Olympic Peninsula hiking days. The annual Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival in October celebrates the Peninsula's remarkable seafood tradition in Port Angeles. Book your pasture or private lot at Run with Alpacas Farm Stay and let the alpacas, the Olympics, and the Strait of Juan de Fuca combine into an Olympic Peninsula experience that is genuinely unlike anything else.

RV@Olympic

92 RV Sites

At 191 Old Deer Park Road in Port Angeles, Washington—the gateway community to Olympic National Park on the Olympic Peninsula's north shore where the Strait of Juan de Fuca separates Washington State from Vancouver Island and where the park's three distinct ecosystems—temperate rainforest, alpine wilderness, and Pacific coastline—create the most ecologically diverse national park in the contiguous United States within a single 1,400-square-mile boundary—RV@Olympic provides 98 full hookup sites with fiber-optic internet at each position, a clubhouse with remote-work infrastructure, and the direct Olympic National Park positioning that puts Hurricane Ridge 45 minutes away and the park's Deer Park entrance 15 minutes from the campground gate. The fiber-optic connectivity, the remote-work clubhouse, and the dual Olympic National Park entrance proximity make this a specifically 21st-century Park gateway campground. Ninety-eight full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, sewer, and individual fiber-optic WiFi connections accommodate the full range of RV configurations across standard, premium, and luxury back-in site categories. The fiber-optic infrastructure at each site—rather than shared wireless that degrades with concurrent users—delivers the broadband quality that remote workers require for video conferencing and cloud-based workflow, addressing the practical need that the extended-stay Olympic Peninsula camping market generates as more guests work remotely from national park gateway campgrounds. A clubhouse with dedicated remote-work space, high-speed connectivity, and comfortable seating provides the co-working alternative for guests who prefer a shared workspace to the RV interior. Laundry facilities, full bathhouses, a playground, a dog park with wash station, outdoor fire pits, community gathering spaces, and a 24-hour cashier-less convenience store provide the daily infrastructure that the 98-site property requires. Olympic National Park's Deer Park entrance—15 minutes from the campground—provides access to the park's northeastern alpine terrain via the unpaved Deer Park Road, reaching the alpine meadow environment of Deer Park Campground and the Blue Mountain summit overlook at 6,007 feet elevation, with views across the Strait of Juan de Fuca to Vancouver Island and east across the lowland forest to the Cascade Range's profile on the eastern horizon. Hurricane Ridge—45 minutes from the campground via the Highway 101 and Heart of the Hills Road approach—provides the most visited alpine environment in the Olympic Peninsula, with the Visitor Center at 5,242 feet, the Hurricane Ridge Road, and the meadow snowshoeing and wildflower hiking that Olympic's alpine zone supports with the most accessible infrastructure in the park. Lake Crescent—one of the deepest and clearest lakes in Washington State, occupying a glacially carved valley 30 miles west of Port Angeles—provides the swimming, boating, and the Marymere Falls trail access that the lake's position within the park boundary makes universally accessible without a backcountry permit. Sol Duc Hot Springs, accessed from the Sol Duc Valley road, provides the geothermal soaking pool experience in the old-growth forest setting that remains one of the most specifically rejuvenating experiences accessible from the Port Angeles base. Dungeness Spit—the longest natural sand spit in the United States at 5.5 miles, extending across the Strait from Sequim—provides the wildlife refuge day trip that the tidal lagoon's 30,000-plus Dungeness crab population and the 250 bird species documented on the Spit make the most biologically productive short hike in the region. RV@Olympic is open year-round in Port Angeles's maritime climate. Olympic National Park operates all four seasons, with summer bringing the full trail and visitor center access and winter providing the hurricane Ridge snowshoeing. Reserve your fiber-optic site early for summer park season and let the three-ecosystem national park on your doorstep earn the reputation that makes the Olympic Peninsula worth the ferry crossing from Seattle.

Elwha RV Park Olympic National Park RV + Campsite Packages

12 RV Rental + Campsite Packages

Elwha RV Park in Port Angeles, Washington, provides a gated full-service RV resort at the gateway to Olympic National Park, positioning guests in Clallam County's Elwha River valley where one of the most celebrated dam removal and river restoration projects in American conservation history has returned the wild salmon to the Elwha's full watershed for the first time in a century. Situated minutes from the national park's Elwha Valley entrance and Port Angeles's ferry connection to Victoria, British Columbia, the resort serves as the most comprehensively equipped lodging base in the Port Angeles area for guests whose Olympic Peninsula itinerary includes the park's varied ecosystems from temperate rainforest to subalpine meadow. The resort's facility is purpose-built for Olympic National Park visitors who want resort-quality infrastructure alongside maximum park access: gated entrance, full hookup sites with big-rig capability, cabin rentals, bike rentals, a clubhouse, recreation center, pavilion, dog park, general store, boutique shop, walking trails, sports courts for basketball, volleyball, and horseshoes, RV storage, laundry, firewood, and Wi-Fi collectively provide the service depth that extended national park base-camp stays require. The Elwha River flows adjacent to the property, providing the restored wild river access whose ecological transformation since the 2011-2014 dam removal has made the Elwha Valley one of the most significant ecological restoration stories in the Pacific Northwest. The Elwha River dam removal—completed in 2014 when the Glines Canyon and Elwha dams were fully extracted in the largest dam removal project in United States history—restored salmon passage to 70 miles of the Elwha watershed for the first time since 1913, releasing a natural sediment flow that is rebuilding the river's delta and estuary in a real-time ecological experiment observed by scientists and conservationists worldwide. The returning Chinook, coho, and pink salmon runs continue to grow each year as the river's spawning habitat recovers and the lower Elwha Tribe's cultural connection to the salmon is renewed after a century of dam-enforced absence. Olympic National Park encompasses three distinct ecosystems within its 922,000 acres—the glacier-capped Olympic Mountains, the Pacific Coast wilderness beaches, and the temperate rainforests of the Hoh, Quinault, and Queets river valleys where annual rainfall exceeding 140 inches produces the largest temperate rainforest in the Western Hemisphere outside British Columbia. Hurricane Ridge, accessible via a 17-mile paved road from Port Angeles, provides the most accessible subalpine mountain views and winter skiing in the park, rising to 5,242 feet above the Strait of Juan de Fuca in the most dramatic immediate mountain ascent from a coastal community in the lower 48 states. Elwha RV Park operates year-round in the Pacific Northwest's maritime climate, with the summer hiking season from June through September driving peak demand for Olympic National Park access and the late-season salmon viewing on the restored Elwha River creating a compelling fall attraction from October through November when the returning Chinook and coho are most visible in the river's restored spawning gravels below the former dam sites. The Port Angeles-Victoria ferry provides a day-trip international border crossing experience unique among campground day-trip options, and the resort's year-round gated operations and full hookup infrastructure serve the shoulder-season and winter visitors who find Olympic Peninsula crowds significantly reduced outside the summer peak.

Elwha RV Park

51 RV Sites

Elwha RV Park in Port Angeles, Washington, offers 50 RV sites alongside the Elwha River, with 30 and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Seven distinct categories — including big rig and narrow pull-throughs, private back-ins, and pull-ins — sit behind a gated entrance, open all year at the gateway to Olympic National Park. Fifty sites span 30-amp water-and-electric back-ins, big rig 30/50-amp pull-throughs, narrow 30/50-amp pull-throughs, private and standard 30-amp back-ins, and pull-in sites, all carrying full hookups where noted, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Accessible sites are available. Cabins serve guests without a rig. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, dump station, RV storage, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a concierge handle the practical side, with WiFi and recycling throughout. The park is open year-round. On-site recreation is broad: a recreation center, clubhouse, pavilion, sports courts, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, a playground, a pond, and bike rentals, with a community fire pit for evenings and live music through the season. Mountain biking, hiking, birding, and stargazing all run from the area, with skiing, snowboarding, boating, and a casino nearby. Pets are welcome. The Elwha is the site of the largest dam removal in US history — the 2012 removal of the Elwha and Glines Canyon Dams reopened 70 miles of salmon and steelhead habitat, and the river's recovery is ongoing. Olympic National Park's Hurricane Ridge, Lake Crescent, and the Hoh Rainforest are all within reach. Directions: from Port Angeles take US-101 west to the Highway 112 junction, follow 112 about half a mile to the sign, then left onto Lower Dam Road.

Tsawaak RV Resort and Campground

33 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 5 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

On the wild Pacific edge of Vancouver Island, minutes from the surf breaks and ancient rainforest of Tofino, Tsawaak RV Resort and Campground occupies one of the most scenically dramatic settings of any RV destination in North America. Opened in 2023 and owned and operated by the Tla-O-qui-aht First Nation, the resort brings both environmental stewardship and deep cultural meaning to the Tofino camping experience. With 34 RV spaces and 13 longhouse-style cabins set within sight of the rainforest and steps from the Pacific, Tsawaak is a destination that earns its place in the conversation about the continent's great coastal campgrounds. The resort's accommodations reflect the landscape they inhabit. RV spaces offer full hookups with 50-amp service, water, and sewer, positioned among trees where the sounds of the forest and ocean carry through the property. The 13 longhouse-style cabins blend architectural traditions of the Tla-O-qui-aht people with the functional comfort of modern camping accommodations. An amenities block provides free, spacious showers and an indoor dishwashing station, and laundry facilities keep extended stays practical. A surf shop serves the surf-focused community that gravitates to Tofino year-round, a boutique gallery and general store round out the on-site retail, and a hot tub provides welcome recovery after a cold water session in the Pacific. Mackenzie Beach—known locally as tinwis—is a two-minute walk from the resort, making it one of the most beach-accessible RV destinations on the BC coast. The beach offers surf, tide pools, spectacular Pacific sunsets, and the wild atmosphere of a West Coast shore where old-growth forest meets open ocean. A culturally vibrant visitor center designed to reflect the heritage of the Tla-O-qui-aht First Nation gives guests access to Indigenous stories, traditions, and land connections that add genuine depth to the Tofino experience beyond the outdoor recreation alone. Tofino itself is a five-minute drive from the resort, with restaurants, kayak and whale-watching tour operators, art galleries, and the full social life of one of British Columbia's most beloved coastal towns. Clayoquot Sound—a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve—encompasses the greater area with ancient temperate rainforest, extensive kelp forests, and extraordinary marine wildlife: grey whales, sea otters, black bears, wolves, and bald eagles frequent the sound and its beaches. Pacific Rim National Park Reserve extends along the coast, offering the Wild Pacific Trail, Long Beach, and some of the most remote and beautiful coastline in Canada. Tsawaak RV Resort operates through the camping season on the West Coast and is best approached with reservations secured well in advance—Tofino's popularity consistently outpaces its accommodations capacity. Summer brings warmth and peak surf and whale-watching season, while fall delivers the dramatic storm-watching season that draws its own devoted following to the coast. Regardless of when you visit, arriving at Tsawaak means arriving at the edge of something genuinely extraordinary. Book early, come ready for the Pacific, and experience Tofino through the cultural lens of the people who have called Clayoquot Sound home for millennia.
