We absolutely LOVED it here. Ms. Rita is a gem of a person. She is so sweet & kind. When we arrived they were doing construction and so it was awkward driving down the street in our RV but Ms. Rita was waiting for us outside the place waving us in. The place is GORGEOUS! We unfortunately couldn't get sewer hookups but we were so in awe of the place we didn't care. Now I will say, the checkin was slow because it's all done by hand. No computers so it is a bit slow but isn't that they people RV? To slow down? The grumpy old man that showed us to our site SAID he would help my husband back in but basically told us the site and than watched my husband try to back in while he gawked & had his arms crossed the whole time. That man was sooo rude buuuuuut we found out on our last day there that Ms. Rita fired him. She made a promise to her dying daughter that she would keep him on but after sooo many complaints, she couldn't do it anymore. Good for her! That took a lot of courage. I applaud her. The place is just magical, like living in a forest. Some people don't like that, that's fine. But please know that before hand instead of leaving a negative review because "too many trees."oh boy. We were there in July of 2022. This is still one of our top RV spots. read more

Handsome Dillon helped us check in this time. He is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The campground is beautiful and lush and they offer bathing facilities, pool, playground, convenience store, clean facilities. This family ran campground is worth the stay, this was our second time there and we'll definitely be back. Thank you again Dillon. read more

Rita the owner welcomed us with open arms! The campground is back off the road, you feel completely secure and secluded! The sites are all so dreamy- shaded with pines, level, gravel. Some might take a bit long to maneuver in--trees don't move. Cute farm on site with sheep and chicken. Bike path for kids away from car access. Pool open in June. Playground! Trails throughout the grounds. Just can't say enough good things! Perfect for a quiet family getaway! read more

I love this RV park! Though located in an industrial area you would never know it! You are literally camping in a forest. Someone mentioned in another review that the sites were small; I disagree. I have stayed here several times and will continue to come back. The sites are somewhat level and the space is much bigger than most RV parks. The bath house is spacious and clean. Great showers! Another plus is a laundry room on site. There is a great dog park with plenty of room for the dogs to run and play. There is firewood and propane on site. Believe it or not there is a nice pool for the kids and you. Yes check in is a little slow but to me it is worth it. This is a family owned business please consider supporting this small business. read more

Wonderful place! Beautiful trees, dog park, spots are mostly private and good laundry facility. Owner and her grandsons keep the park extremely clean. I definitely recommend American Heritage.. read more

Found this campsite last minute as we drove through Oregon. The campsite itself was absolutely beautiful, the sites were clean and clear and easily accessible. The grounds were adorable and just a nice place to be. The office staff was the best ! The owner and her son were so incredibly hospitable and helpful even when we arrived at 9:30 at night. I can't say enough good things about this campground . We came back the next night after we toured Seattle and decided to stay one more night before the drive home back to California. read more

Always love another trip back here, the staff is so kind. They are always willing to help and answer any questions you might have! The grounds are kept up beautifully! There's volleyball, disc golf, a heated pool, a dog park and lots of wildlife, including goats to see! This time around there was a fun snack bus with hotdogs & snowcones for the kids! read more

Beautiful campground!! Lots of trees, which we LOVED!! The owner, Ms. Rita and her grandson were super friendly and helpful. Clean bathrooms and good sized laundry room. We'll definitely be back! Lisandra Monique M. read more

Odd rv park, very forested, small sites, difficult to back in, but separated from each other. Check in was a time consuming process, everything done manually. read more

really enjoyed the stay. very welcoming and friendly team. easy access from I 5 and to Mt Ranier. dog park was much appreciate. The sheep were quite interesting too. read more

Great family friendly campground located just outside of Olympia/Tumwater. Far enough from everything to be actual camping. Close enough to have a reasonable drove to the Centrailia outlits as we as Olympia itself. The family( i assume its a family) that runs this place is extremely friendly! Pool is great for kids. The bathrooms were much better than kost campgrounds. The tenting sites were great( thats where I stayed. No stumps or holes. All the sites are saw were level and smooth. Every site has a fire pit. The wood is only $5 plus tax. I stayed here 3 nights and the only thing I have to complain about is not staying longer. I highly recommend this campground to anyone passing through. read more

What a lovely woodsy, private campground with extra amenities! Carla and family provide the best care and security at their family campground! In summer there is a grated pool and daily hay wagon rides! WiFi and super clean laundry room. We needed rv space while doing a remodel on our new home. This was the best choice for our stay! Many thanks for all of the personal touches like filling some camp sites with gravel, blowing out pine needle debris, escorting late arrivals into campsites in the dark and coaching those on their first rv parking and such. A woodsy oasis right off I-5, near the city. read more

Loved this campground!! Each site is spaced nicely with tons of trees and bushes in between. Clean, quiet. Great owners take a lot of care and pride of the property. Laundry room is large and has chairs and couches to hang there if needed. Felt very safe all the time. Pool not in use but there are nice lakes nearby. Stayed 5 nights, our site had full hookups. We had a 30 ft rig. Plenty of room. Hated to leave but on to Astoria! read more

I'm very surprised to read the few negative reviews. Our experience here was just great. Rita and Karla checked us in and they were both very friendly and it was obvious that they enjoyed interacting with the campers and took pride in their campground. Their camp store had very interesting items and we bought several things from them (collectibles, etc) at great prices. The restrooms were very big and super clean! While staying here we had a great kayaking trip on the black River and also had a terrific bike ride on the Chehalis- Western trail. We live in Oregon but will definitely try to come back here again another time! read more

We bought a TT 34ft 2020 Keystone Hideout in May. We took it out for our first trip in June ( WA started to open back up) without our kids during the pandemic. This is a family own business. The ladies were so nice when I called to book our trip. The pull in area in spacious. It was a quick check in. They will even escort you to your site and help you pull in. We didn't need it. Wi-Fi is good close to the office building. This ground is maintain well. Rules are live by here. Website use it always up to date. Showers, Restrooms are clean! Doggy park is cool. Little trails on the property. Site are clean and spacious. Campfires are great! Wood on site and general store. Closes store is Wal Mart in Tumwater. We visit again in August great weather for our twins boys birthday. And Christmas had a blast. Tall trees. That's our last trip there. We're military so we will be leaving the PNW soon. If we every return we would definitely stay again. I give it read more

We called this camp right before they closed. We were still a few hours away but they set everything out for us with our name on it. They told us they were not open for camping season yet but made an exception for us. The campground was very clean and quiet. The bathrooms were very big and clean as well. Easy to find and road was in good condition. They had laundry on site and a pool. If you come during the night the numbers of the campsites can be hard to find but it is written on the pavement on the road read more

One of the finest quality camp grounds we have had the pleasure of staying in,( that's 60 yrs of experience!) Mainly becuz of the reasons that Michelle and Bonel used as complaints..the owners work hard at safe guarding the comfort and peace for all campers. ( rules must be enforced!) we read the one star reviews as recommendations. If you want beauty, peace and quiet this is the place to be!!! Will be back! Will tell me friends!!! read more

We have never stayed here, we wanted to, but were instantly shut down by the lady who answered the phone. She wanted to run our credit, yes you heard that right! Apparently we need to "qualify" to stay here. I have never heard of this before, and I'm definitely not getting a hard inquiry on my credit score just to stay at this place, I don't care how beautiful it is! Read the negative reviews. It will explain a whole lot about this place and the people that run it. Yes there are good reviews, but there are quite a few bad ones too. read more

I got here late and the owner Rita helped me get in and settle in a site. Rita was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. The park was immaculate and the trees and ambience were beautiful. There is another RV park nearby for about $10 less but not as nice as this one. They even let me keep my RV parked here well after the checkout time for no charge as I went site seeing in Seattle. This place is awesome and I highly recommend it! read more

My family was considering staying here. So we drove in and checked out the camp ground. Within minutes we were met by some grumpy old guy on a motorcycle blocking our car. He started yelling at us saying we need to leave and that we were bothering guests (we did not see even one person anywhere). Nobody even got out of the car. We were just looking for a new campground to enjoy. WE WILL NOT BE GOING BACK. read more

We had a great experience at American Heritage RV Park. The owner was so pleasant and patient. Despite caring for the front desk as well as all the facilities she manage to take care of our needs with ice, laundry, restrooms and other accommodations. Prompt and courteous. The park itself is its own adventure. There were beautiful, tall trees, playground, grill, clean walkways and off-beat trails. There is a cute garden. Our dogs had a nice time spotting the bunnies. Seemed pet and family friendly. Great experience. read more

Easily the best campsite we've stayed at. They were so accommodating and kind. The office has some pretty unique items so we picked up a couple things. Bathrooms were kept clean and our campsite had a bonfire, everything we needed! read more

Oh my goodness we always enjoy coming back to this property! The insane amount of trees make it feel so private and secluded. Everyone is so darn sweet, they really seem to go out of their way to make you feel welcome. My kids love coming and are always excited to return! read more

Great campground! Nice facility with a pool. Camp spaces are pretty private. In a decent location although if you do tent camping, you can hear the highway. Staff is so nice and accommodating! We would stay here again! read more

The old guy running the place was ornery and do not understand the concept of boundaries. He insisted on touching our dog (a smart Aussie), who doesn't like strangers. When our dog thought it was weird for an old man to insist on friendship, the old guy kicked us out. We wish him well on weird stand on "screening" dog visitors by touching them. read more

Soooo it kinda feels like your staying at your grandparents house lots of rules that are not to be broken I get they want a clean nice camping area but don't take the fun out of it read more

My family stayed two nights in site #77. There was 6 of us and we spent around $125 for the campsite(arrived 6/26 and departed 6/28) On that Saturday mid morning the Man and Woman in campsite #75 began a loud verbal disturbance and cussing. We immediately reported this to the campsite office and your maintenance man seemed to speak with them and things quieted down and we began to enjoy our trip again. Later that evening the couple in site #75 began yelling again and having a verbal conflict. They also had a very young baby and it was crying a lot. This also concerned us. The office was closed so we felt it necessary to contact the local police to come and resolve the conflict in site # 75 and do a "welfare check" for the infant. It seemed to us when we arrived on Friday that the couple and their baby we're not "camping" in site # 75 but living there. No vehicle etc.. Needless to say this ruined our camping experience at your campground. read more

Private, secluded, friendly. "Out in the woods" feel. Very much worth the somewhat pricey ($575) month's rental for the space. Gray/black water dumps. Garbage dumpster. Limited WiFi. Large, clean, free bathrooms. Adequate laundry room. Pool in the summer months. Just a few minutes from I-5. read more

This place is amazing. I don't understand the bad reviews. We were treated great. Free showers, a farm, pool, laundry, store, playground and just peaceful. The owners are very laid back and just great people. If your going to just party and be loud at 3am this isn't the place for you. We stayed up late but respected the quiet hours and no one bothered us. Will go back anytime. read more

This is a great spot. The initial application process can be awkward and intrusive. however, once you get past that, the grounds are restorative and the sites second to none. read more

This is a sentimental favorite as we stayed here on our honeymoon in 1986 on our way to Expo 86 in Vancouver, British Columbia. It was a KOA then but now privately owned, clean and well maintained. Very friendly staff that went out of their way to be helpful and provided us with good dinner recommendations. Our campsite was large, private and wooded. We would have liked to stay in the "honeymoon suite" which is still there (but in 1986 we were in a much smaller trailer, not a 35 foot motorhome), but has low hanging trees that can not accommodate an RV of our size. The campsites are shaded and spread out with a good road that lends to a great bike ride. This will be our go-to camp spot in Olympia forever! read more

Well kept, clean, wooded and quiet. Restrooms and showers are secure and clean. Lots of hot water. Grounds are secure and have well separated sites. Excellent value. Nice little store with food stuffs, rv supplies and gifts. This would be a 5 star rating but the grounds are a bit older although everything is neat and well maintained. Staff and management friendly and approachable. On site laundry, propane and firewood. We will definitely stay here again. read more

Gorgeous and well put together. Staff is absolutely FANTASTIC! I had problems with my camper and they were able to locate some tools that I needed and saved the day. Convenience shop is perfect if you forgot a few things like wood. Sites were beautiful, there's a small farm, bathrooms were clean and had showers, some sites had water and power, and the grounds were beautifully kept thanks to Rita. Will definitely visit again! read more

This does not even deserve a star!!!! Took a short drive and found this campground... looked vary nice driving in but No No No, we have never been here before, did a quick drive through. on our way out a man from no where came walking straight for us, would not move out of the path where we were driving... walks up to our car and ask where is our pass, we proceeded to say we don't have a pass, he then says why are you here, we've never been here before and we were looking at your campground he says this is private property and you are not allowed to be driving on the premises did you not see the signs out front, I said No I did not ... this man was vary rude no smile, and very bad customer service skills... did not feel welcomed here at all!!!! I will never be back and believe me I will be telling 10 more people this place might be pretty but the people that run it are ugly.! read more

Rita was a wonderful host! She was so incredibly hospitable and kind to us and our children. She was a joy to converse with and went the extra mile to make sure we had a pleasant stay. The campsites were a good size with trees for shade and privacy. I highly recommend The American Heritage! read more

While this was a beautiful, well kept, and quiet campground our stay was not the best. The two ladies that work the front counter are very nice and polite. That being said...the man that runs around in the orange shirt and green pants is a nightmare. I believe he is the maintenance man. He is very rude and acts like he is a secret agent for the campground. We are very quiet people and were pretty much harrassed by him the whole time we were there. So i guess if you want to put up with barney fife this is a great campground. Because of him we wont be back, which is sad because its a beautiful place. read more

I can't say enough about how kind the owners of this campground are! They were able to fit us in on short notice and were very accommodating. I won't go into detail but they bent over backwards to make us feel welcome and to make sure we had everything we needed. The prices are really reasonable. The camp spots are nice and clean; some are very private and it's a beautiful setting. The shower, restroom and laundry facilities are super clean. They have a huge common park area and a nice fenced dog park. I highly recommend this campground! Don't miss it! read more
