Need fed back for these three parks, thinking of going summer 2017 and wanted info on things to do places to stay. We have a 32' class C and 2 kids ages 10-12. how many days at each park?
I know Crater lake looks cool but haven't heard much about Rainier and Olympic.
any feed back would be appreciated.
To some degree I consider most of these parks to be "one hit wonders", unless your family likes to hike/bike... then you could spend a lot of time at any of them.
If it were me, I would set aside two days for Crater Lake. Then cut over and drive up the Oregon coast. Spend the rest of the trip up by Seattle (note I did not say spend it only at the parks). Do see the parks, but there is much more to see. Take in some good food in Seattle. Take a ferry ride over to the San Juan islands, maybe Friday Harbor. Take a whale watching tour. Mount St. Helens, North Cascades National Park. Visit Vancouver BC.
