The Salt Creek WA Campground in Port Angeles was one of my favorite CGs ever! The view of the straights is awesome - you look across toward Canada - freighters and boats of every size glide below you. It's a county park CG. The reservation system was strange though. You have to make reservations by mail, so you really have to plan in advance. I had to walk to the top of the hill to get Verizon reception. It was worth it. Close by is Olympic NP.
Thye only problems with Salt Creek, besides it's being an awesome view, are that it is extremely popular and is kinda out of the way for most exploring. Other than that, you can now make reservations online and there is a place that you can make calls from down by the lower steps to the beach. There is a handlettered sign on the fence. The closest tower is on Vancouver Island and it doesn't tell you that you are international roaming till you get your bill. Verizon credited my entire charge from the Canadian company.
You have to be careful along the entire north Olympic Peninsula coast. Very easy for your phone to flip over to a Canadian provider and if your data is turned on, you could run up some heavy charges
Even north of Sequim, overlooking the Dungeness Spit, our AT&T phones switched over (with a text advising us).
