We found this campground totally by chance. We had some vehicle problems and needed to stay in the area to take care of them. It turned out to be a hidden gem. We loved the experience and would definitely definitely The campground is located on MCChord AFB and you need to have base access in order to stay. It is located in the Midwest of “a forest” of trees. They look like giant redwoods,,although they aren’t. It gives the campground lots of shade, but let’s in plenty of sunlight too. The roads and sites are paved (asphalt) and generally level. Most of the sites have water, electric, and sewer. Our rig is 34’. The initial site where they planned to put us would have been a tight fit. The site where we ended up could easily accommodate a 45 foot rig. Facilities (restrooms and laundry) were immaculate. The BX and Commissary are within walking distance. Nice walking/running trail right outside the campground. The only real downside is that you are located right next to an active runway. It can be a bit noisy, but having lived most of my life on Air Force bases, it didn’t really bother me. We camped here during March and early April). Temperatures were in the mid fifties (for highs). It looks like it could be buggy later in the summer. I’d say the campground was at approximately 60% capacity. Definitely put this one on your list if you’re in the area.

I want to share the magical experience of Sherwood Forest. This Military Rv parks is awesome. Where can you get this much space for $28 a night full hooks up. We always leave our site better than we left it. The forest smell like Christmas. I will miss the sound of the birds, and the hummingbirds that came to the bird feeder. There are so much space in the upper level spots between spots you feel like you in your in a special spot in the forest. I say good night to my last sun set and wish i could take this to my next adventure. When you come here come to the ext 125. Due to the military taking money from MWR, they are not staffed well. I find that there is a lot of confusion. When asked how to come here there was so many people telling you how to get to the Air Force side to the RV Park. I am not impressed with the hours, the people and the camp host who no one really wants to work and try’s to take care of this RV park. This was an amazing experience.

Amazing space, great sites, but everything else is poorly maintained. The bathrooms are never clean and the kids have taken to carrying their own toilet paper, washers and dryers never work. I will re-rate them for a 4 if they fix the problems instead of hanging signs "wash at your own risk..." Re-rating from 1 star. The last we saw before we left the west coast was that the camp ground manager was trying to solve some of the security and functional issues we had with the park.

I don't have any idea why folks rates this campground so poorly. We stayed here for five days while our house was on the market. The place is quiet, shaded and all the staff, we interacted with, were excellent. I didn't need them but all the facilities were clean and serviceable. There were mosquitos in the evening, shocking, a rain forest with bugs.

My parents stayed here during their visit here at Lewis-McChord. Tons of ants and there was broken glass at their campsite. It was affordable and a place to leave their camper while they stayed at our house on base. It was pretty quiet while we stopped by for a few hours a couple days so my parents could work on their rv a little. The play ground I saw needs cleaned up and worked on... there was a trash can lid hooked up to the swing set I didn't understand the purpose of that. My parents didn't have any issues with hookups or anything. I think overall it was safe. Just needs more attention to cleanup and maybe something to help with insects because their dachshunds were being crawled over with thousands of ants when you tied them out for outside time. It really was nice otherwise.

This campground has serious management issues. There is no accountability concerning the office staff and the camp hosts. Most grills and fire pits are left dirty and there are no crews verifying cleanup before the next guest. The grounds are not mowed regularly. All of the washing machines are currently broken, and when working they break soon after. The bathrooms are not cleaned daily and never on weekends. The men’s shower drains are clogged. The host has no interaction with guests and is hardly around. When asked what the camp host duties are, the staff either doesn’t know or won’t comment. The Host commented that their duties are almost nothing for a free permanent camping spot. The facilities site open board is not updated on the weekend for late arrivals and the host didn’t care. Many wonder what exactly the host does.There are times when people living out of cars and pickups literally use this facility as a hold up. Cops have even been called on strange activities from guests watching children playing on the grounds. The main MWR office is either unaware of the issues or turns a blind eye because of the profit margin this facility generates. There is zero transparency and honesty from this facility. The two stars are only due to the local and spacing of sites.

Nice military campground on JBLM. There are plenty of spacious sites in a shady forest. Sites with hookups can be reserved and dry sites are available on a first come, first served basis. We stayed at a dry site for a weekend, so the shade trees were nice. Fresh water and a dump station were available on site. The only downside to staying on an Air Force base was getting woken up by aircraft on the nearby airfield! Access is limited since it is on a military base.

We stayed there 2 days, beautiful and quiet place to stay, it was nice being around prior military personnel. . Very woody place loved definitely recommend and will comeback there again.

Though the park itself is in a beautiful setting, it is not kept at all. Here for two weeks during Memorial Day Weekend and it has not been mowed, no one cleans sites when campers leave and the cleanliness of the laundry facility could be much better. We camped here 15 years ago and it was a beautiful park. It is the worst FamCamp we have been to now. I do hope the military sees what a negative impact that this shows of JBLM. I don’t see us coming back. Please look at what is going on (or not going on) and change it.

Since I posted this complaint JBLM called and fixed the problem, we have enjoyed our stay at Holiday park many times since the problem, 4-5 stars now. We have emailed and called for 8 days now, one person, Ledda called back after 8 days, no one answers the phone or email. We have been trying to get a space a month out, plenty of time for a reservation. Need the army to take over again I guess. Tom

A lot quieter than Fort Lewis with the jet skis and loud racing speedboats with no mufflers (I.e. civilian side of lake, come moore in front of pier blasting their music and dance). Just 1 problem with someone stealing my underwear out of dryer-3 pairs. WTH. Add that people drive the wrong way on the one way-don’t read signs. Think your big rig has to move for them on narrow road-could use better signage.

My family and I have stayed here off and on for about half a year and the park is always clean and tidy. We love the natural feel to the park and enjoy the shade from all the trees. Joseph and Ben truly care about the campers at Holiday Park and try to make their stay enjoyable. Highly recommend!

It is a nice location if you can get on base. Clean and mostly quiet. Pet friendly as long as you have them on a leash

The RV Park is nice and shady but won’t be staying here again. We spent a week in Spot 26 in September 2020 and we got infested with spiders. It’s been 3 weeks and I still haven’t been able to get rid of them all. Not coming back for more of that. They need to spray the area for bugs.

I stayed there yesterday may 15, the lot attended at site 1 showed me how to hook my rv I had just bought. It’s a real nice location, quite, secluded, walking trails, dog friendly, water and electric hook ups, showers and bathrooms nearby

Very nice military RV park. TV and WiFi have bad reception as there are at least 100 foot trees all around us.
