About Us

A quiet place to
call your own —
even for a night.

Cougar Rock Campground sits in a pocket of old-growth forest near Elbe, Washington — far enough from the highway that you can hear yourself think, close enough to the rest of the Olympic Peninsula that you never feel cut off.

We've been welcoming campers for decades, and we still believe that the best nights are the ones spent under a sky full of stars, with the sound of wind in the pines as your only alarm clock. Whether you roll in with a full RV, pitch a tent between two firs, or curl up in one of our cabins, we'll make sure you have everything you need and nothing you don't.
