Dosewallips State Park is a 425-acre, year-round camping park with 5,500 feet of saltwater shoreline on Hood Canal and 5,400 feet of freshwater shoreline on either side of the Dosewallips River. The park is unique in that it offers both freshwater and saltwater activities. All camping areas are grassy and located in scenic, rustic settings.

Cabins at Dosewallips are situated among evergreen trees looking towards the Olympic Mountains. Each cabin is 10-by-26 feet in size and features a 6-foot covered front porch, electric heat, lights and locking doors. Bathrooms and showers are nearby. Cabins have separate living room and bedrooms and are furnished with bunk beds that sleep three and a futon couch that sleeps two. Outside is a picnic table and fire grill. Cabin number 75 is accessible to people with disabilities, and pets are allowed in cabin number 76 with a $15 (plus tax) pet fee per night.

Each modern platform tent at Dosewallips is 14-by-16 feet in size and comfortably sleeps five people. Made of white canvas on wooden platforms, they are light inside, even on cloudy days. Early loggers, miners and pioneers in the Hood Canal region traditionally used platform tents.

Each tent is outfitted with a bunk that sleeps three, a futon for two, lights, table and heater. Outside is a deck, picnic table, fire grill and utility hookup. Bathrooms and showers are nearby. Campers must bring their own bed linens. All platform tents are heated, but visitors should take along blankets and warm clothing as evenings can be cool.
