Meet Your Hosts

Open April 1 - October 15

Situated in a quiet, natural forest setting on picturesque Willapa Bay, this is just the place to leave your daily life behind-and hit the beach!

A scenic nature trail leads from the campground right to the beach, where you'll enjoy bird-watching and beach-combing. Your pets will love running on the beach too! Swim in the tidal bay, rake for delicious steamer clams (license required) and work up an appetite for the area's famous Willapa Bay oysters. You're close to lighthouses and the Pacific, just on the other side of the peninsula that shelters the bay. Take a ride on this KOA's three-wheel banana-peel bikes--they're a blast! Play a game of volleyball, basketball, badminton or horseshoes. Enjoy ice cream socials every weekend (Memorial Day through Labor Day). Then finish your perfect day with a beautiful sunset over the bay.

Please contact our campground for information regarding your group!

Meet Your Hosts

Close
After spending 20+ years in Corporate America Iris and Ken decided to do what they do best - Get 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.
