The campsites are nestled among
tall evergreen trees at the confluence of the Dewatto River and White Creek. You
can drive or walk the Dewatto River 3/4-mile to the saltwater beach on Dewatto
Bay, which is part of Hood Canal. Features camping, hiking, fishing, shellfish.
The campground is a delightful area for families
with young children because the river bed is a wonderful area to explore and play in.
The summertime water levels and current are not threatening except to the youngest
children. Groves of tall trees protect and cool on warm days. Electricity
is available for 37 campsites; there are 4 maintained toilets; a covered
community kitchen area is located centrally to parking. Here is
diagram of the campsites. Don't forget to make
reservations.
Did we say 'primitive'? Aside from
the 37 campsites with electricity, there is no water system, sewage dump or
garbage facilities. Please be prepared by bringing drinking water and removing
your waste. Here is a list of our campground
rules.
The campground is a park for the
whole family to experience and enjoy. There is fishing, hiking or just
sitting back watching the world go by; that is being "Dewattoized".
Dewatto
Bay is just a short jaunt down the road, with a public beach area for oyster
picking, clam digging or just watching the sun go down behind the Olympics.
