Went here on a dreary gray day and I'm sure the weather affected my opinion of this place. A friend…read moreof mine loves this place because he used to come down here with his wife when she was still alive and it is near and dear to his heart. He convinced a bunch of us friends to check it out and well, it's nice. We ordered our seafood lunches at Merino's and I was excited about eating at the tables on the curb. He really wanted us to wait and eat at the beach. Okay! That sounds awesome. Five minutes later we're at the park and the picnic benches had no view of the beach. You literally were sitting at a bench next to the parking lot. At least it was right next to the restrooms. Then he wanted to walk around the shore. The path did technically see the shore, but the distance was like half a mile and these senior citizens were not going down to the sand. My sister and I were not going to miss being actually on the beach, so we ran down the the beach head and it was nice, but it was cold so we didn't go in the water. We later headed up to hang out with our senior friends and it didn't look good. They got to the first bench and one of our friends has a bad knee, another has leg cramps, another didn't feel steady, and another was doing great because she brought her walker with her and was getting in her steps. Our fearless leader was planning on walking another mile and a half to the lighthouse but my sister put the kibosh on that. We would've been fine, but looking at these poor ladies, they needed to walk back to the car before they couldn't. I felt bad for our leader because he wanted to show us the magic of this place, but naw, maybe next time because these ladies need help. I will give the beach area props because they are very accessible, but even with that, you have to know what your people can handle.

"Westport is where I live, and so I'm going to take this opportunity to tell you to COME VISIT!!…read more Westport is the red headed stepchild of Washington Beaches, never promoted as a beach city, it is the last place most people in Seattle think of when they think of the beach. But you will not regret coming here (especially if you were considering going to Ocean Shores!) The 18 miles of sandy beaches that stretch from Westport to Tokeland is otherwise known as the South Beach is everything you would want in a Pacific Northwest Beach. Whether you're looking for a fishing adventure, beautiful beaches, surfing, kite flying, whale watching, crabbing, or just relaxing, the South Beach is the place to be. In the summer, you can beat it to beat the heat. It's not overdeveloped, in fact its quite understated. The marina district has a nice mixture of upscale restaurants (we got our first sushi restaurant, yay!) and hole-in-the-wall diners. Fishing is still a very important part of the community, and if you've ever wanted to try a fishing charter, you can do that from July 1 until the quotas are met for less than a round of drinks in downtown Seattle. Surfing is huge here, at Westhaven State Park and Half Moon Bay. There are 2 surf shops in town (Steepwater Surf Shop, and The Surf Shop) that can outfit you with a wetsuit and a board for under $50. A lesson will cost a little more, but not by much. Bikes and paddleboats are available for rent down on the water. Kites can be purchased for just a few dollars and can keep your kids busy for hours. In the spring and fall, watch the WDFW to see when the beaches are open for clamming. During crab season, you can drop your crab pots right off of the fisherman's boardwalk - no boats required. Starting in September, the salmon that were released by the local high school class start to return to the Marina, and you can fish right off the boardwalk and participate in the Salmon Derby. There is all kinds of old fashioned fun here. It's perfect for a romantic getaway or a family trip. Day trips and overnighters. There is everything from campgrounds to low budget motels, to luxury condos. All only 2 hours from Sea Tac!"

We loved watching jellyfish and seeing Sea Lions right off the dock! We love Half-Moon Beach for the waves, the rock-hunting and how natural it is.

My family loves Westport and highly recommend it for a stay or a day trip if you're in the area!!

My only complaint about this park is the day use area is not easily found. We did not camp here, but ended up driving through both campgrounds trying to figure out where to park.

On the coast with some winding little trails under the trees and through the sand, the day use area and one row of campground sites were open. We decided to take the trails on a short leg-stretcher just to see what Twin Harbors was all about. Up and over the sandy dunes and around muddy patches we weaved for a mile or so, and back through the campground to the van. The beaches were empty, a few campers staying overnight, and a handful of cars coming and going from day use. It felt pretty peaceful at Twin Harbors, we would've happily grabbed a site for a night if we weren't heading home. Probably wouldn't be more to do here for more than one night, but it's a low-key spot for a stopover or picnic.

We took the boardwalk and trail down to the viewing platforms. There wasn't much going on that day,…read morebut it was a nice leg-stretcher while passing through. They'd recently mowed the paths and next to the boardwalk, however a little snake made his way up onto the boardwalk to sun. He stayed put so we could sneak past, but you could tell the growth under the platform was high and pushing up through the boards making it easy for him to come up from below. The rest of the path was uneventful. A lot of robins, but no migration activity or anything of significance to view at this time. Decently large gravel lot at the trailhead, as well as a vault toilet.

The unit came with dog bowls, mats and other dog-welcoming features. I truly loved this place and would be very happy to make a return trip!! Thank you VBTS for giving us a very memorable weekend!!

I stayed here for a week and had a great time. I did not want to go home. Pick your times to cross the bar and you will be fine. We will see y'all again!

The first day, we checked out the Fisherman's Boardwalk and crabbed/fished for over 7 hours. Caught a few Sea bass and limited out on Dungeness Crab! It was a pretty enjoyable day. Our second and third days were not as good because the weather was a bit colder, cloudy and very windy. Took a while to get our limit of crabs, but had no such luck getting the fish we wanted. Overall, we all had a whole lot of fun on our 3-day trip to Westport, WA! Got an ample amount of Dungeness Crab to take home and some Sea bass as well. Definitely needed a Vacay away from home and also from work. Even a short trip like this was beneficial to relax and rejuvenate ourselves.

The park is surrounded with trees which helps protect from the ocean wind. They're placed around the outside so they don't block the sun. You can walk or drive to the town and the ocean it's just down the street. This would be an excellent place for a family reunion. The clubhouse is large and well equipped with a cooking area. The pool, laundry area and bathrooms were very well kept and clean. We were in travel trailer but walked into the beautiful wooded area for tents and it was so pretty and well manicured with nicely placed sights. The park staff was very attentive delivering wood in the evening and making sure we had everything we needed. The facilities were exceptionally clean and comfortable. I liked the little extras placed in the bathroom for camper's use if needed We had such a great time and will be back for sure!

Most attempts to connect to the WiFi fail. You will have to use your phone to create a Personal Hot Spot. If you do connect to the WiFi the Internet connection is slow and erratic. Most web sites timeout before you get a connection. This is ancient gear. An inexpensive mesh network with outdoor antennas would solve the problem. The front desk did not know who their internet carrier was. If the carrier is supplying any reasonable speed of 50 to 100 Mbps on a mesh network all would be usable.

Quinault was a shot in the dark but we lucked out! Many people who RV have different expectations and what we love is seclusion. This place has that. With our large 40 ft 5th wheel and 4 slides set up next to the shore it becomes total serenity. There are not concrete pads and not much grass but you are literally on the beach! It's a bit inland in the bay but you still get to hear the ocean waves crashing. The sites are 30 and 20 amp with sewer. There is no cable and wifi but that is not typically what we are looking for. If you want to unplug and get away from civilization this place might be for you. If you don't need fancy amenities and can be pretty much self reliant with your rig then this place is for you. I don't need on site showers or on site bathrooms. However I think they have that still. Great lil place and Tom is a great guy to talk to that runs the place. I really like it here!

Perfect area right on beach. People that run it are friendly and nice. Long ways to walk on beach.read more
