Trip planning Upper Washington State US 101
We will be taking US 101 around the top portion of Washington State this July since we had to skip it several years ago. We will be traveling from Copalis Beach, through Forks and on to Port Angele...

Dennis,
We just did this trip a couple months ago and even though we live close, we had never been to LaPush. As far as beach camping, it was our opinion that it's the most incredible spot we've even been to and that's including multiple trips through Oregon and California. The beach is awesome and listening to those waves crash all night long was great.
The road is no problem. They have a number of pull thru sites and when we were there, they were completely empty.
The only knock that we had was that there were a number of men on the beach early in the morning that were drinking heavily and continued to do so all day and then well into the night. The next morning I stepped out of the rig to find one of them sleeping face down in the dirt next to our campsite. They were zero problem but certainly added a different vibe to our camping stay. Also, depending on whether you have dogs or not. We try to keep our dogs on leashes but this beach was leash free and there were many dogs running around. Again, not a problem but we did have to shoo them away to prevent a dog fight.
With all that said, the beach, the driftwood that they let you burn for fires and the full hookups really made for a great time.
Good luck and have fun........john
