Nice campground on the lake with a launch ramp. Unfortunately there is no clearing at the waterline or a "beach" area adjacent to the ramp to set up once you've launched and the lake banks are steep and rocky. The campground itself is well maintained. Hiking options are few. Boating, fishing and paddling seem like the primary activities.

Beautiful site with bathrooms that were easy to get to and clean. Short walks to nearby trails and lake access, including the swimming section by the day-use area, made the experience delightful for our family.

It rained and was cold the entire time of our camping trip. That said, there was a burn ban even though the earth was doused with rain. We decided to take a day and walk the Wynoochee Lake Shore Trail. It is unmaintained, and the trail is very dangerous and totally washed away in places. The old, slimy log bridge between points 7 and 9 of the trail does not have a hand rail, and it proved unsafe to cross. It is high above a creek and very much overgrown with brush, making a wet crossing equally dangerous. Our campsite in Coho campground had a fallen tree where our tenting spot would have been. Why the camp host fell a tree there, and left it there does not make sense. There was also a widow maker hanging over the parking area. All in all, it is a beautiful place to camp. Very disappointed in the condition of the lake shore trail and the burn ban.

So beautiful! Love the trails. Even in the rain! Campsites & bathrooms so clean & tidy.
@DennisK5939243 · Camped on Aug 19, 2024 at Campsite #33
Great campground with pretty private and spacious sites. The lake and the trails around the lake were great hikes for the pups. We will be back.
@RebeccaS312468 · Camped on Aug 14, 2024 at Campsite #40
Definitely avoid site 40 in loop B. The site is just gravel and the bathroom: no trees, no privacy, and the bathroom door slamming throughout the day and night. Some of the other sites looked okay, but very small and packed together.The lake is a reservoir with an industrial dam. I didnt see a single bird, fish, or forest critter over the course of 3 days. The trails in the area are terribly overgrown. Overall disappointing and far from the peaceful camping experience I had hoped for.I rated an extra star because the camp host was kind and helpful and the bathrooms were clean.

The site host was incredibly kind and stopped to help us get our yurt key even though he was busy with other things. The lake and hill views are beautiful. The campground is crowded and a lot of people were very loud/playing loud music past quiet hours. Limited parking spots for the walk-in areas, so we had to park in a weird spot off the shoulder of the road by the lot.
@Elizabeth96325 · Camped on Aug 7, 2024 at Campsite #54
Lovely campground with a great host and nice to have first come first serve spaces in addition to the reservation ones.
@JonathanH88369 · Camped on Jul 25, 2024 at Campsite #34
We enjoyed the stay very much. The sites are big and the host was very nice with our children. Take the road from the south as the other road is not in a good condition.
@jeremyj6006560 · Camped on Jul 21, 2024 at Campsite #35
Coho Campground is beautiful! The sites are fairly well spaced out, and the campground is clean and paved. A couple of nice hikes nearby, through the forest and down to the lake and dam.That said, do not drive to the campground from Hwy 101 on Donkey Creek Road. THAT road is unimproved with huge washes and potholes! Instead, users should approach the campground from US 12 at Montesano. It would be good if Rec.gov pointed that out to campers!
@LoriO0F810073F · Camped on Jul 17, 2024 at Campsite #57
Love the trail around the reservoir
@EveO0CF4EC1DF8 · Camped on Jul 14, 2024 at Campsite #49
This was a beautiful camp ground. Right near a rocky beach with swimming available, lots of great trails and some neat information and cool views from the dam. They actually had flush toilets - a bit of a luxury in a national forest campground - and the sites were comfortable and well spaced. We would love to stay again!
@SheilaC9075055 · Camped on Jul 9, 2024 at Campsite #38
I love Coho campground. The hosts were great. I'm happy that we could buy ice daily rather than doing a 62 mile trek every day for ice. The one thing I object to is the allowance of the hydro jet boats on the lake. This is a rural, serene, area and to have those jet boats going up and down the lake for hours really ruins the tranquility of the place. The lake is only 5 miles long at the most so we are experiencing back and forth extremely loud noise for hrs. Other campers were annoyed as well. I'm not saying all boats and skidoos should not be there, I just think the jet boats should stay in a urban setting and not at the lake. Please consider restricting the hydro boats on Lake Wynoochee.
@NicolaD9490BC8 · Camped on Jul 9, 2024 at Campsite #45
Very nice and helpful campground host. Remarkably clean washrooms. What a beautiful campsite with a stunning view of the lake and crystal clear water inviting you to swim. We will come back!
@RobertR8191303 · Camped on Jul 7, 2024 at Campsite #35
The Coho campground is now managed by D5 Recreation LLC and the new host would not let me move from my reserved site to a first come first serve site without paying for both sites , in the past when under different management and at other forest service campgrounds also I was able to move from a reserved site to a first come site with no additional fee. I think I deserve a refund.
@AnnaP5007093 · Camped on Jul 4, 2024 at Campsite #39
Its a nice campground, well maintained!Bathrooms are clean, there is soap and paper towels in the bathroom. Lake is nice and very beautiful! Definitely come back spot for us.
@SidS5537693 · Camped on Jul 3, 2024 at Campsite #26
very good host. good shade. easy access to water and restrooms. campgrounds are not too close and we were not bothered with any noise. the lake is great and the hiking trail around the lake was gorgeous. ice, snacks, and firewood were available on-site for sale. I was able to make up for the lack of a shower by daily swimming in the clean water of the lake... kayaking was gorgeous. protected area for the kids swimming and adults away from the boats... very safe.. no lifeguards though. carry your life jacket.
@AsadRC60FA4D1C · Camped on Jul 1, 2024 at Campsite #39
Remote beautiful location, bathrooms with running water.
@pulliappa1B0F9 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #26
Camp host is truly awesome. He has a little store which is extremely useful for the campers. I would certainly call him a super host. Also sites are very spacious and offers pleasant staying experience. Would love to visit again
@ShayneJDA9F196 · Camped on Jun 26, 2024 at Campsite #25
Very nice campground, asphalt pads, nice spacing between sites and wonderful amenities
@DavidEmi3303D3 · Camped on Jun 24, 2024 at Campsite #34
We loved it here the view was amazing and its far enough from other campers too. we felt safe as the host drives by periodically to check in on how the camp sites are doing without disturbing anyone, I loved that. Great place for family and there is plenty of trails for all to enjoy. This is our go-to when we want to get out of town and into the woods. Also, there are waterfalls, 3 to be exact close by although you will have to drive then hike. It makes for a nice day trip. The lake is beautiful, peaceful and a joy to be in. We always bring our kayaks, tubes and water toys, small barbecue for the beach yet there are barbecue pits at the waters edge as well. Remember DOGS are permitted on at least a 6' leash and please pick up after them. Thank you

Family orientated campground! Beautiful lake. Nice sized spots. Clean restrooms.
@MariaP8100980 · Camped on Jun 9, 2024 at Campsite #50
This campground is so clean and well maintained. The hosts are exceptional! We loved our stay here. The lake is also super clean and nice, and just a short walk away from the campsites.
@ZoeRAC274C6BCF · Camped on Jun 8, 2024 at Campsite #56
Grounds were well maintained. Site 056 is surrounded by trees and walk-in only, so despite being behind the bathroom building and able to see the occasional camper pass on the camp road, it feels very secluded and quiet. Our two dogs and did very well on a tie-out at this site. The next day we took the 20min drive to Spoon Creek Falls for a swim, which made the visit a 10/10! If expecting rain bring a shelter as there is only a picnic table and fire ring available.
@DeborahC371835 · Camped on Jun 2, 2024 at Campsite #43
This is a lovely park. It is one of the most beautiful parks Ive been to. The campsites are large and spaced out with lots of room. They are kept up well. The host we had was a Canadian who couldnt have been nicer or more helpful. Always a smile and a cheerful word. We took lots of walks to the lake, the dam, the trail behind the dam and the one around the lake. The lake is great for kayaking or just enjoying a paddle around the picnic area. We didnt use the picnic area at this time except to launch our kayak. but it is a large grassy area on the lake with lots of picnic tables. We will definitely come back.

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
