Mussel Beach is a trek - 20 minutes down a gravel road once you head south towards Ucuelet, which means only real keeners are camping out. There's no drinking water or electrical hookups but there are hot, hot showers for $3 a time. Firewood can also be purchased at $10 a wheel barrel from the office where someone actually lives all year round. There are an assortment of campsites to choose from - and after walking through the campground, I'd have to say that one with an ocean view is the best, and of course, the most expensive at $45 a night. Each campsite has a different flavour with everything from driftwood bars (yes, as in serving up some of your own drinks) to seats carved right into fallen logs. There are private spots that are great for a couple of people, or large double spots where tents could fill every nook and cranny. Mussel Beach is also well known for a music festival that they host every July, but for me it's all about the secluded spot, a view of the ocean and a campfire - no campfire bans here during the summer either, which equaled mountains of smores galore!

Stayed at Mussel Beach last week for 8 nights, and wow. Spectacular location looking right out into…read morethe pacific ocean. Quite off the "beaten path" - an hour from Tofino and 30ish minutes from Ucluelet, meaning only people who are truly into camping or the outdoors seem to stay here. It's also a quiet, relaxed atmosphere with amazing beachfront sites, like the one we stayed in. You can also book small cabins and sites that are more secluded/sheltered in the bushes and forest. Hot showers, tho they cost $3/use. Gates close at 10pm sharp, which we found frustrating. If you arrive back late, you need to park down the road and walk in. If you stay at Mussel Beach, be prepared for a bit of adventure. You do need to watch for bears, cougars and wolves, so don't be wandering around the surrounding forest without proper gear and bear spray. However, you'll also see a lot of eagles, possibly some deer and LOTS of ocean life. The road to get to the campground is 20-30 minutes down a pretty rough dirt/gravel road. What pushed this from a 4-star to a 5-star for me, though, was the friendliness and hospitality of the hosts, who appear to live on-site. When hubby and I arrived, it was pissing rain and very windy. The hosts offered us a more sheltered site for the one night, and in the morning, set up a canopy for us and some other campers to take shelter in. Because it was so nasty out, the host gave us a wheelbarrow full of free firewood (usually $10 a barrel) so we could keep warm. Overall, if you are looking to fully disconnect and spend some time with nature and other camping enthusiasts, this is a great place to do it. Just be prepared for the bumpy drive and bring your tarps and bear spray!

I have to front load my review with the fact I have not been camping in a long time. A very very…read morelong time! Having said that I was very happy with this campground. The layout of this campground consists of four loops. A, B, C, D, and each loop has a numbered sites. Each campsite has a table and a fire ring. Park your car correctly and you can ensure to make your spot more private. Under a canopy of trees which are beautiful. The bathroom has running toilets and is well lit. Making nighttime walks to the bathroom less scary, lol. The camp host came over to introduce herself and warn about the crows. Apparently they were rampant and able to attack and tear up campsites if you leave anything out. A very quiet area and super close to Rialto Beach. Which I would not recommend walking to as there is no trail and you'd have to walk on the road. A great central location to explore the Olympic Peninsula. Very nice spot to get back into camping. Happy travels & SYOY.

I stayed at Seal Bay on a busy, long weekend Friday night and I LOVED IT. Even though the place was…read morepacked to the rafters, (with more RV's than I have ever seen in my life) it was quiet, peaceful and restful. The campground is very well laid out - there was a lot of space for tenting, and one of my favorite things ever - each tenting spot had a raised square that was leveled off so that the tenter was not sleeping on an incline, or rocks or the like. Also, each tenting site had its own running water! There were also showers and really, the loveliest bathrooms I have ever seen at a campsite. Clean, not smelly, and attached to a gorgeous wooden hall that had *two* built in fireplaces, and ample space for a party, if one were in the mood for that. This campground also has laundry facilities, wood for purchase for burning in the fire pits, (I suppose most campgrounds have that, but anyway, it gets *delivered* to your site!) and wonderfully friendly staff. It is situated on about 60 acres of privately owned land, 20 acres of which are dedicated to camping, in a relatively quiet area near a winery ;) I think we were exceptionally lucky to get a couple of tenting spots there on a long weekend, as it was very full, but mostly of rv's. I suspect it is booked much in advance, so I would recommend making reservations. I would not hesitate to go back to this place.

It's a family-friendly campground, with a store, a small pool, and even a small car-pulled train/wagon for kids. We appreciated the clean bathrooms and warm hospitality.

Green Point is the exact opposite. It has spacious, private sites, well maintained facilities, friendly staff, and is centrally located for exploring one of the most scenic and beautiful parks in Canada. But really, the reason to go to Green Point is its proximity to Long Beach. Long Beach is the Omega Beach, the template from which all other beaches were wrought. A ~15 kilometer long crescent of fine white sand that faces the open Pacific, Long Beach is perfection. Surf, skimboard, make sand castles, run with your dog, watch the sunset, build towering beach fires, and enjoy a completely unimpeded view of the stars at night (at least in the summer, when it doesn't rain as much). Even when it rains, it's easy to take solace in being in one of the world's few temperate rainforests. No services, RV accessible, ~$25 per night per site. Book as early as possible because the place is always full all summer long. Reservations open for the year on March 21st.

If I were looking to book a vehicle accessible campsite at Green Point Campground I would try to…read moreget a high numbered site (say #67 or higher) on the outside (i.e. ocean side) of the loop road. These sites are the furthest from the highway (especially the higher numbered sites) and the closet to the ocean (but expect very limited/no water views). In contrast, I would try to avoid sites #32-#60, especially those on the outside of the loop road, because of their proximity to the highway. Other than those two suggestions, most of the sites seem similar in terms of privacy (decent) and size (fairly large), although there is of course some variation. With regards to the walk-in sites, we stayed in #11 and I thought that was a good choice, although it wasn't anything special. The walk-in sites are on the small side and some are close together, such as W13 and W12. W10 and W11 stand out only because they're on a tiny spur trail and therefore have less foot traffic passing by. W10 has a hint of a view, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Overall I was a bit disappointed with the Green Point Campground. Apart from it's proximity to a cool beach it's a pretty standard campground. I didn't notice any campsites with a good view or especially nice setting, and some of the vehicle sites are practically on top of the highway. In the walk-in area they've established a number of "equipped" campsites, which means they come with a tent already set up (on a tent pad) and some other equipment, all for triple the price. Oddly, even though the campground was supposedly full every night we were there, these sites appeared to go unused. That's a shame. On the plus side, the facilities in the vehicle accessible area are new and quite nice, and the group campsite has a great setting in the forest. I don't value either of those things too highly, but they are positives. Finally, Pacific Rim National Park entrance fees* are in addition to camping fees. This is pretty standard for national parks and is something to keep in mind when planning your trip. When you add the entrance fees to the camping fees some of the private campgrounds in the Tofino area might pencil out a better deal. Of course this assumes you wouldn't pay the entrance fee if you weren't camping there and many visitors to the area still pay the fee. Frankly, while Long Beach is pretty, I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to see it again in the future. There are plenty of cool beaches in the area outside of the park that are free. *Canada's National Parks are set to have free admission for all of 2017 to celebrate the country's 150th birthday.
