Dungeness Recreation Area Campground

We were so happy to easily get a first come site on Friday July 5 (4-day weekend). It feels very private in our site. The campground is very quiet - a nice change from where people seem more interested in partying with friends than enjoying the forest. A short walk to the restrooms. We both thought the showers were nice - really appreciate when there is room for your clothes,  etc. to stay dry. The trail leading to the spit is an easy walk and the views when you get there are amazing. I glanced out the window this morning to spot 3 deer walking by. My husband saw an eagle yesterday. The rv dump is located on the way yo the campground.  We thoroughly enjoyed riding bikes on the Olympic Discovery Trail (we drove to it after the Saturday Farmers' Market in downtown Sequim.)

This park has lots of large camp sites that are well spaced and mostly private.  Site 46 and 8 I thought were the best.  It's dry camp but does have a dump station free for registered campers and 10 bucks for a daily hang.  The showers are very clean but have only one temperture..  luke warm.   Firewood you can buy on site and is overall very well maintained.

We arrived after dark and one of the rangers helped us get parked. There are several pull through RV spots. The gates close at 10pm, so be wary of arriving late.

We got lucky the next morning and when searching for a better spot in the daylight, the nice gal in spot 8 told us she was leaving and we could have this spot. It’s the best spot in the park, directly on the bluffs. Front row seats for the sunset every night and the sound of the ocean waves below!

Very clean bathrooms and showers. Lots of space between sites.

Many sites in shade, some on the cliff side have plenty of sun. There are miles of dog friendly trails within the county park, with beautiful views of the Olympics, and Victoria Canada across the water. Many bald eagles. There is also a trail that does not allow dogs, to Dungeness Spit, which you can hike to the light house (long hike) or along the beach beside the cliffs if you love geology. The only reason it isnt 5 stars is lack of hookups, but the ranger says there is talk of installing them. You are far from the highway, and all the other campgrounds in the Sequim area are close to the highway. 

We stayed here with a group and had a great time. The campsites were good without any hookups. 
I had an unshaded spot so I was able to use a solar panel to keep the battery topped up. 
Some good hiking areas and close to a beach area. 

Was not impressed, enjoyed Salt Creek Park but not Dungeness. Be sure to take lots a OFF.

I was pleased with the price,  the distance to the beach,  the privacy of the campsites, and the overall cleanliness.  Much better deal than shay I'm finding at WA state parks. 

This is a (Clallam) County campground, created from property once owner by the federal government for use by the Voice of America project. It still shares boundary lines with the federally - operated Dungeness Spit wildlife preserve to the northwest, location of the Dungeness lighthouse. Folks heading to the Spit must pass thru the county park to reach access to parking and the trail to the spit and beach. This adds some traffic to the single narrow road, especially on spring/summer weekends.
Camp facilities are basic, with no water, sewer, or electrical hookups at the sites. Sites are level and paved or gravelled, and tend to be tight for larger RVs. Many sites offer good screening between neighbors, while others without low brush feel open under the trees. Small playground for younger children, but little else. Walk down to the water starts easily enough, but may be long and tiring for small children and older folk. Often restroom facilities at bottom of trail are out of commission, so "go" before you go. 
Popular area for horse riders, so be sure you're on a "people" trail.
Trip to the lighthouse is longer than it looks on open beach, offering no cover. Allow plenty of time, watch the weather... especially the sun.
Other than walking the couple of trails, not much for activities. Great for one or two, but kids will probably get restless soon. Short stays tend to be the norm here.
Still a clean, well maintained park, open year round, with fairly low rates.
