We have always had a great time at Cascade Peaks. We do our family reunions there a few times and we spend every Memorial Weekend and Labor Day weekend there. It's a bit chaotic but it is a great, inexpensive campground. They have a pool, wagon rides, bikes to ride for free, a rope swing and a little store. read more

The store is ok but things are expensive and They over charged me like 3$ for a drink I was getting and they said they couldn't do anything about it? I would recommend to come here yes because the area and pool and the river is great but it's just the store I'm not very fond of but the log rides are fun if u wanna bring family but u gotta get here early or it gets full this place involves A Zipline, Log rides, Pool, Laundry mat, Showers, Bathrooms, swings, etc. Would recommend just bring your own stuff :) read more

Apparently we aren't allowed to use the restrooms from 10pm-6am......?!?!?!?! Security yelled at us for using the bathrooms at 12:30am when we had to go!!! What are we supposed to do if we have to go #2!?!?!??! We're in a tent and don't want to poop in our site. Because, you know, that's crazy..... last night, security tore down the road going at least 30mph, kicking up dust everywhere, and told us to go to bed because it was 10pm. There were 3 of us eating food and talking with indoor voices. They said it was past our bed time, and we needed to go to sleep in our tent.... WHAT!?!?! They said if we didn't go to bed right now, they were going to kick us out. They said we had a curfew to be in the tent, and we were violating it, and if we didn't like it, we could leave and go somewhere else. We didn't have anyone camping near us. We could camp on the side of the road anywhere in the world and have a better time. We won't ever be back. This place used to be great a couple of years ago when we were here, but the "security" they hired has made it more of a chore than a good experience. Don't come here. Go literally anywhere else. Also, the power and water hookups didn't work in our site that we paid for. This place is ridiculous....... unreal. read more

I love it bcs its fun has a bunch of little activities like 2 pools, a park, a basketball court, A zipline, a river, and many more. The store is a bit expensive read more

Great place to come and camp. Staff is courteous and helpful. Plenty of amenities. A very large campground with something for everyone.

This was our first time staying here. We camped over Memorial Day weekend. I was surprised at how big the camp was. We enjoyed swimming in the pools, one was very cold water and the other seemed heated. Both pools were very full as it was 90 degrees out but we got to cool off so it was nice. The camp store seemed like any RV store, not much stock and higher prices but we didn't really need anything there so that was ok. My 3yr old loved that they had a playground and zip lines. I was happy they had a smaller zip line for little kids. Our spots were close to the river so it made for a nice short walk. The only bad things are I think they need to add more bathrooms/showers. And I think they need to update their maps and camp signs. I got lost going through the loops a few times. They need more signs throughout the campground and their maps that are given out should be more complete, they don't list each spot individually just the beginnings and end numbers on the loops. Otherwise we are definitely going to stay here again. We like that it's close to the Packwood Flea market but far enough away that it still feels like camping. read more

This campground is rated a 7 on the good Sam app. I'm not sure who is doing the rating but this place was horrible. When I called to make a reservation they told me that they had plenty of space available. So I did not have to make a reservation. When we pulled up to check in they told us to pick our spot wherever we found one. We are traveling with another RV so we couldn't find a spot and there was this man riding a bike yelling bad words. We got out of here ASAP. Do not stay here... read more

Very beautiful area in general but customer service was terrible, old lady at front office was rude to my girlfriend. Bathrooms are horridly gross and hardly cleaned it seems, pools are kind of gross on the side of the pools there obvious dirt and green stuff. Also in the pools they don't allow T-shirts cause of the dye which is odd and I don't think the shirts strip color for no reason it must be the way they clean their pools. There's people that live there and their areas are gross and dirty, not too bad but camp at your own risk read more

If you like finding your own FHU spot, this is your place. The spots are very tight and close together. The park is really designed for tent campers. Place is clean but needs some updating. It's only about 25 minutes from Mt. Rainier. Stock up on food as there are few to no places to grab a bite. read more

We were referred this camp site by a friendly local after other plans fell through. This place is superb. We enjoyed our stay. The bathrooms were cleaned once daily and the staff was friendly and reminding others to drive slower when they zoomed by. They have tons of amenities for the little ones and plenty of space to run around. Also lots to see and do around and outside of the campsite. Flush toilets and showers a huge plus. read more

HORRIBLE establishment. The place is so run down it's not funny. Like roof falling down in the bathroom and doors don't lock. The landscaping isn't cared for. It's dying in some place and overgrown everywhere else and they have a ridiculous amount of permanent campers who pretty much run the place. One verbally assaulted my two children and when confronted he got hostile. The employees way of handling it was so say she said sorry but she couldn't do much because he lives here. She didn't even offer a refund or anything. What????? The residents also rope of what they consider their areas so it's hard as hell to get to the river they're on. All around this place is a shit show. Only stay if you have no other choice. Their response to my post is laughable. Tried to resolve it by laughing in our face and saying they couldn't do anything to a permanent resident?? Yikes. Terribly bad customer service. read more

We stayed here for 3 nights and loved it. It was peaceful and quiet. This campground is huge, with around 650 sites, but there was hardly anyone there. They said their busy days are Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends. The electric and water hook up is at the front of the sites, which would have been more of an issue if we backed in, but we were able to pull straight in so there was no issue. Our site was in the meadow and we had a tire swing nearby. This place has a very decent and well stocked camp store, on site laundry facility, 2 swimming pools, and an easily accessible dump station. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were fine. The laundry facility was clean. The staff was super friendly and we saw them buzzing around the campground quite often but they didn't bother us at all. The park is rustic and older, it could use some updates. But the playground was nice, the kids loved the zip line, and the pools were fairly well kept. We will stay here again no doubt. It was so relaxing and close to mount rainier National Park. Oh yeah- we even got to see an elk near our camping spot! read more

We have camped here many times over the years. I'm not sure if it's new ownership or just that many more people are camping, but this place is a dump. Garbage is left everywhere, multiple people are in each site, people driving fast, etc. I can't believe how much it has gone downhill. DO NOT CAMP HERE!!! read more

Bathrooms are very disgusting dirt everywhere and obviously has not been cleaned in a while, staff is very rude, tried using a debit card but they dont accept them afterwards I had to ask for my card back and the lady rudely said well excuse me DONT COME HERE it's over priced for how unsanitary it is here and the pools are green and dirty on the side theres dirt that has not been scrubbed and it feels slimy read more

Available when nothing else was. Private sites, easy access. Quiet at night. Our only complaint was no one in the office was wearing a mask (this is within their control). The pool was extremely crowded and again, no masks (this could have been managed). Groups of 10 to 20 people were walking to the pool areas (this is outside their control). Except for the time in the office, it did not impact us other than we felt uncomfortable. read more

Don't advertise quiet hours begin at 10 pm if you have an intention of enforcing "quiet hours".

The staff was nice but the rest was bad. The campground is dirty and needs major updating. We wouldn't even take a shower because it was so gross. No garbage cans, only two bathrooms. We were lucky we got a clean portapotty. Dust everywhere. Will not go back. Two many unsupervised kids. read more

This place is RUN DOWN! It's bad, really bad. Dirty, nasty, unkept..... we are campers and we know what camping is. I felt cleaner in the woods and peeing outside than being at this place. Loud music and partying till 2am, traffic in and out all hours of the night, trucks up and down the hwy all night. People live here all year round in run down campers. They are scattered throughout the camp sites so no avoiding those. The pool is ok, cloudy but "clean", but TONS of people in them, way over capacity I'm sure. The "rec center" is TRASH. Broken, smelly, junk. Signage and communication is horrible. RUDE workers. It's BAD BAD BAD GROSS. All buildings are run down. Spider webs and inches of dust in food for sale in the "store". $100 for three nights is WAY overpriced. You couldn't pay me $100 to stay here. We left, didn't get a refund and couldn't stay here our full weekend. There is not a fire pit and picnic table at every site. You have to search for them. Our camp site smelled of urine...someone else must of felt uncomfortable in the bathroom to. SICK. read more

We love this campground! We've come here multiple times and the staff has always been so friendly. They handled the large Memorial Day crowds well and were even kind enough to let us in on a little known swimming spot at the creek! I would recommend camping here to all my family and friends. read more

The noise level in the campground at night is atrocious. I have kids and the "neighbors" were up all night singing karaoke with profanity as loud as they could. The campground itself is great but I can't BELIEVE that anyplace would allow that level of noise until 2-3 am when there are FAMILIES there trying to enjoy time together. We will never be back which is sad because we really did like the campground and amenities as a whole. If you like nature and quiet and a peaceful spot to decompress this is NOT the campground for you. If you want to get drunk and crazy and be as loud and disrespectful as you want this is the place. read more

I've been here several times with my friends. It's really neat how accommodating the owners are! Just ask and they'll do what they can! One of the most beautiful campgrounds I've stayed at, not overly groomed at all. There are many fun activities and amenities, as in pools, billiard table, foosball table, zip line, disc golf, and a store. One weekend, they even had painting lessons :). They have different camping options: tent, RV, and even rooms to rent. I love it there and plan to return often in the future. read more

Worst experience ever!!! If you say you have rules then maybe you should in force them like you state you will do on the papers you hand ouy

Finally, I have found a good reason to comment on a campground that I have stayed at. My wife and I are very avid campers. Have over 40 years of tent camping, backpacking and now, it's RV'ing. We have been all over Washington State, Peninsula, Ocean, rain forest, NE Wa., SE, Wa., Islands, Canada, Oregon, Idaho and Montana. Our experience with campgrounds is very well founded. So let's get to the review. It has always been on our list to hit the big flea market thing in Packwood and this place was the only one who had anything available. We chose a site that had a full hookup for the RV. When we arrived they had a check in booth but they don't use it anymore so no problem, went inside to check in. According to the map we thought we were in the back by the river but, guess not. The full hook up area is crazy funny. Finding your spot is a real challenge because the numbers are on the electric pole which is located in the back. Now, let me explain. If you draw a circle that is 3 feet in diameter, you will find the hook ups for 4 RV sits in that circle and that is the way it is all the way down the line. When I backed in I had to get as close as possible so that my slide out didn't hit the neighbors awning. I was able to get situated ok but now I cannot put my awning all the way out at 8 feet because it would hit the awning of the RV on the other side of me. My wife and I decided to walk around and see if there was something better, something with enough room to actually step out of your RV without bumping into another RV. We saw a few sites, called the office and was told that many of the sites were owned by others which you could see in some cases that yes, people did live there. Eventually we found a site that would work for us. The sites in the Cascade loop all have power and water so that works great. We moved to 118 and moved our tag as asked. Now that we are settled, let me tell you about the campground. They do have 2 gazebos for family activities but the one we saw had people living in it. We saw 2 bathrooms but the one that was on our side of the park that served over 100 sites, had sani cans in front of the doors because they were out of order. Garbage cans? Good luck with that. We did find 4 30 gallon garbage cans on a trailer to use but later found out that all the garbage bags are thrown in a shed over by the store. I guess they don't want to pay for garbage service so this shed has garbage flowing out the sides and ends. A great place for rats I suppose, lol Oh wait, the best part is coming!! Most people who have RV's know that when you back into a site that the hook ups are near the back drivers side of the RV. Not this place. The hook ups in all areas other than the full (crowded) hook up area are located on the street in front of the site and in many cases, they can be 20 to 30 feet down the road so bring lots of hose and electric extension. Many of the water spigots have been run over so there are no guarantees. Fire pits, they do have those. The fire pits are actually truck tire rims. Some sites have them, some don't. Some have 2 and many have been thrown in the bushes so you might want to look around. Wasn't a big deal to me because they had a state wide burn ban but some people didn't care. If you are one of those who don't care about rules like that, this is your place. With all considered, we thought we would take the dog for a walk down to the river. We always have dog poop bags to clean up after our dog but noticed that this place doesn't supply them and it showed so watch your step. Some of the sites had picnic tables and we even had one at ours. There was a hole in the middle that was burned through at some point but nothing like some plastic stretched and stapled to cover it up. We drove around to look at the meadows area and it was no better organized than anything else but I will say this. If you drive right into Cascade Peaks and drive straight over to the meadows and set up out in the middle of nowhere, they would not even know you were there, nor would they care. A lot of folks over in that area are staying in places without numbers, a hundred yards from designated sites. Ok, I know you have been waiting for the best part so here it is. Along the path to the river we found lots of black berries. We were able to pick 6 cups and made 3 pints of blackberry jam when we got home and yes, we only picked the berries that were over 4 feet from the ground. Not trying to be funny with my review, just telling it as it is. The only thing I can find that is funny is any review from someone who actually thinks this place is nice. Oh shoot, if you love the smell of tractor exhaust, try their hay ride, it's killer!!! read more

We Stayed at this park last weekend 9-12-14 through 9-14-14. Some friends of ours were to rent one of their NEW RV's they had just put on site. This RV was Old, Smelly, Dirty, Falling apart, and down right Disgusting!!! The floor was rotten, the curtains were falling down, The bathroom was unsanitary, the refrigerator was smelly, had rust in it, and unusable for the food storage. They charged $30.00 a night for this smelly old thing!! Luckily our personal RV was big enough to house our friends so we decided to stay at the park. It was a little cramped with 4 adults and 2 dogs but we made it work. Upon setting up our personal trailer in the spot we were assigned we discovered that the hook ups, in not just our site, but to All the sites are at the front of the site. Now, what kind of RV has hook ups in the front? In a back in site? A normal RV water hose Will not reach the water spout and a normal electrical cord Will not reach the plugins . It was very confusing to check in. Was unsure where to go. We arrived before our friends so when we did check in they told us to just go down the road he pointed towards and the RV our friends were to rent was on the left. We went the direction he pointed us in but there were all kinds of trailers everywhere and were unsure where to go. Didn't tell us what site number or anything. I finally had to walk back to the office while my husband blocked the road for them to be more clear where we were to be. When our friends asked for a refund it was given with no hassle. We were told that the owners would be down the next day and they would come speak to us. Guess what? They never came. We wanted to do a walk through in the rental RV but they never showed. We wanted to ask them if they would stay in that filthy RV our put up a family member in it. This park used to be clean, emasculate and fun to stay at when it was a Thousand Trails & then a Sam's Club. But since new management took over it has gone down hill. read more

What a beautiful setting. You are in a perfect location for exploring Mt Rainier and Mt. St. Helens! Unfortunately, I can only give this place 2 and a half stars. It is REALLY run down and dirty. Our campsite was riverside and really lovely. Very quiet. BUT...when we arrived someone was IN our site and we had to stay in the full-hook-up area (next to Highway 12) for the first night. After we moved to the riverside site (water and electric, no sewer) we were a lot happier. We were totally alone out on "the spur". No security but very good wifi. Locked doors and pepper spray made me feel a little more secure but I would NEVER tent camp here. Some of the employees were great and really helpful but others were just plain scary, rude, and probably still should be incarcerated. The bathrooms were old, but clean in the campground but don't use the one next to the laundry. REALLY DIRTY and the faucet was broken so really hot or really cold were the options. Speaking of the laundry...washing machines are on their way out. One stopped mid cycle for me. Just died. Out of 6 dryers only 2 were working. Apparently this is the only laundry facility nearby because people not staying in the park were waiting to use it. Way too many permanent residents with junky trailers and cars on cinder blocks. If you can stand to only have water and electric, stay in the meadow or on the spur. The owner is missing an incredible opportunity to make this a real destination camping experience. Invest in real GARBAGE CANS WITH LIDS and upgrade the bathrooms. Require that "owned sites" be maintained. Many were so overgrown that it was hard to tell that they were campsites at all! Get rid of the abandoned property, rusty tanks, old refrigerators, and delapitated sheds that haunt the abandoned owned sites! Get some security guards and custodians that will enforce quiet time and fires set not in fire pits. Put some gravel on the road and replace the picnic tables that fall apart when you sit on them! Hire Camp Hosts to police what needs to be. That being said, emploees Roxy and Tony went above and beyond to be helpful. Many of the staff probably would have helped more if it had been in their power to do so. read more

Our second time here. Two pools but I've never used them. We stay in the full hook ups section. Wifi at the club house. Nice place to stay to visit the near by national parks. Will go here again. read more

What a Joke of a place! I reserved 3 nights but only stayed 1. I was in a full hook up site. Everything was great Friday afternoon, then the place got full, everyone hooked up the RV to power and not one person was able to use their air conditioner, some people didn't even have power. We were told that the entire valley was like this because to much power was being used. I would buy that except how can one camp site have power and a another not have any? The water pressure was also a joke as in we had none. It was 90 degrees out and we could not use our AC in our RV and no water pressure. Then there is no security people were loud and vulgar, can't sleep when you have to have all your windows open and the ruse people around you are being vulgar, loud, and inconsiderate of others. After complaining to the staff and seeing they are complete liars we finally packed up and drove home. When I checked out I complained again. Not one apology or anything. I would never stay at this place again. It needs some serious attention. Needs electrical and water upgrades. This place is run down and has poor ownership/management. Worst Memorial Day Weekend ever! read more

My family had enjoyed camping at Cascade Peaks before, so I thought I knew what to expect. Well, they've obviously changed management because the way they handled my reservation is quite shabby. I reserved a 1-tent site in July, & I'll be danged because they took the money out of my account right away. I never had an entity take the full amount owed until check-in & thought that was rather shady biz. On August 12th my family arrived at Cascade Peaks. When I asked about sites near restrooms (because I have IBS), I was informed that I'd have to pay for water & electric sites to be close to a bathroom. I had to pay more for a site for utilities that I couldn't use in a tent! Imagine paying $67.83 for 2 nights in a tent!!! On top of that, the bathrooms were filthy and not stocked properly. In the past, I could pitch a tent just about anywhere and only be charged for tent prices. I was very disappointed with the greedy management, but my family did enjoy the scenery and exploring the Colitz River, but next time we'll find a better, more affordable place to camp. I wish I could give Cascade Peaks less than 1-star, but there it is.... Shame on the supposed management. read more
