We recently spent three days camping at Mount Rainier National Park in August 2024, and it was an incredible experience. The park is very well-organized, and the rangers were extremely helpful throughout our stay. We camped at Ohanapecosh Campground, Loop D. While the campsites are fairly close to each other, it still provided a great experience surrounded by nature.
One of the highlights of our trip was the proximity to Paradise, which is just a 45-minute drive from the campground. The campgrounds are equipped with flush toilets, but there are no showers on-site. However, the nearby river is perfect for a refreshing dip after a day of exploring. For those who prefer paid showers, we found a facility in Packwood, just a 15-minute drive away.
The forest around the campground is well-maintained, and the washrooms were consistently clean. The forest rangers at the visitor center were also incredibly knowledgeable and eager to assist with any questions we had. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of Mount Rainier.
