Olympic Peninsula / Port Angeles KOA Journey

Olympic Peninsula / Port Angeles KOA Journey

Tuesday, September 10 Through Thursday, September 12, 2019

This park has the best WIFI of any KOA we have ever been in.  But their WIFI policy is a bit different.  We were given access codes (passwords) for only two devices.  Between the two of us, we have eight WIFI capable devices.  Two laptops, four iPhones (Verizon and AT&T) and two iPads.  We managed because we used mobile data for the Apple devices.  Only the laptops are WIFI only.

Everything else about the park was perfect.

The dog park was super sized.  Tree cover was lacking.  However, even though Port Angeles is in a bit of a rain shadow behind the Olympic Mountains, it is often cloudy and rainy in this part of the Olympic Peninsula.

Our back-in patio site had a farm behind it.  The site was laid out nicely.  The patio had a swinging chair, picnic table and round table with four chairs.  We setup our dog fences, put out our awnings and hung out with the dogs.  Privacy fences separated our site from the adjacent ones.

The intermittent and ever changing view of the Olympic Mountains was spectacular.

After doing laundry in their laundromat, we can say that their machines compare favorably to the best laundromats.

In addition to excellent grocery stores (Safeway, Super Walmart), Port Angeles has the main Visitor Center for the Olympic Mountains National Park.  The visitor center is the starting point for exploring the national park.

This KOA makes an excellent base for provisioning trips in the area.

Hope to see you on the road ahead!
