Forks

Free campgrounds still exist! On the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state you can find nearly half a dozen free campgrounds in the Forks area, most are near the Hoh Rainforest. The only limit is 7 camping nights per 30 day period per group. It is a great deal and only minutes away from the beach and hoh rainforest.

Hi! Please note that on May 1st 2007 the Hoh Rainforest in Washington State, USA is re-opening after cleaning up flood damage from Nov and Dec 2006. The last task, after clearing the roads and trails of river debree and logs was restoring power to the park facilities. All is well now. Be sure to drive up the Upper Hoh Rd in the Olympic National Park to see the area in all its green glory. Be sure to stop by the re-opened businesses as well and celebrate with them (hard rain cafe, rainforest paddlers, olivers, and peak 6) For more information on the park, rafting or kayaking tours, etc call 360-374-9288.

I’m coming, Edward!

Yeah, you know what I’m talking about.

We got here the year that this cute modern hotel opened… and you have got to try to the Smokehouse for salmon and their clam chowder… It’s an institution.. We have been to both several times and consider it a great sleepy town…

I like Forks – it’s quiet, simple, but there’s not much going on. It’s a great quiet getaway for some, but if I wanted a quiet getaway, it would have to be on the water or some kind of other attraction. So Forks is great for some; not for me.

I’m going to Cape Verde for a music festival and am going to pass through Forks. I can’t wait! It’s funny, I just read a book set there too. It’s called ‘Twilight’ by Stephanie Meyer. I recommend it!!

when you are touring the Olympic Peninsula is Eagle Point Inn in Forks. The hosts are great, the river view is great, the log “dream” house is great…

Lots of things to see a short drive from the town of Forks.

Planning a trip to Forks for a couple days in late August. We’re looking forward to spending a couple days in the woods for our anniversary.
