We have been to the Salt Creek Recreational Area twice. I don't believe that it is a State Park but rather a regional or county-type park. It is very well kept, has several sites with full hookups and others with partial hookups. There is a clean shower and restroom area at the top of the campsite.
It sits high on a bluff overlooking the Strait below but has no direct beach access from the campsite.
You can find out more info about this park by going to:
www.clallam.net/Parks/SaltCreek.html
I'd recommend this park - no question!

Ok that's a real nice area, we spent a week around port Angeles and toured the whole area,we stayed in Squim state park. There's a really nice lake west of Port Angeles not sure what the name is but looked like a lot of nice camp areas around the lake .

yes you are right Festus2, I labeled it as a state park but it is indeed part of the Clallam County Parks.

I believe the Lake you are talking about might be Cresent Lake

We have stayed there quite a few times. Both in our tenting days and now with the trailer. It can get windy up there along the straight in the fall but when the weather is nice the views are great. The park is a county park. The last I knew they didn't take reservations over the phone. It is a dry campground so grab your favorite color solo cup before grabbing a beer to sit around the fire with.

I have always heard good things about salt creek. And even though I'm only about an hr from it I have yet to stay there. I need to see if my trailer will fit into any spots.

We have stayed there several times and love it. Very well kept park however it is dry so libation in the trailer or stealthy cup. Great place to watch the ships passing in the Straits, merchant, Navy especially if you are lucky a Nuc Sub or Carrier, Cruise ships, etc. Also great tide pools to explore at low tide on Tongue Point right there at Salt Creek. Also old coastal gun emplacements and trails to explore and wildlife. Love that park!
