Dosewallips State Park is a year-round camping park with 5 miles of shoreline on Hood Canal and the Dosewallips River. All camp areas are grassy and located in scenic, rustic settings.
Bring your fishing poles and shovels to collect freshwater or saltwater fish, clams, oysters and crabs.
Freshwater activities are nearby on the banks of the Dosewallips River, and saltwater activities can be found on nearby Hood Canal. There is a watercraft launch 7 miles south of the park at Triton Cove State Park.
The park provides a kitchen shelter without electricity, and sheltered picnic tables. There are braziers and restrooms nearby.
The campground has cabins, standard and utility sites. The park accommodates RVs and combinations of 40 feet or less in length.
During winter months (Nov. 15 through March 15), the campground is winterized and only sites 21-29 have water. Winter water supply is still available.
Learn about seasonal closures and operational changes during the off-season on the Winter Schedule page.
In summer months, campfire programs are conducted on most weekends.
