Meet Your Hosts
CloseGet Outdoors! The kid was headed to college and it seemed a good time to hit the road. They sold the house, bought a 5th wheel and got into the Work Kamper program with KOA. Being avid fisherman, they were looking for a spot near the ocean. Kenny always said “Colorado is beautiful but it is a long cast to the ocean from there”. After spending a season in North Carolina they were fortunate enough to find a KOA of their own. They packed up and headed to the opposite side of the country, the coastline of Washington. Iris had fond memories of clam digging with her father when they lived here years ago, so when they discovered the campground had its own clam bed it was a perfect fit. Iris and Ken have found paradise in this small fishing community of Bay Center. They invite you to come share their passion for this beautiful coast & campground.
