Stayed at Cougar Rock campground for 2 nights. Camp site and bathrooms were clean and the reservation set up went smoothly. Only complaint I have is our car battery would not start the last morning when we were set to leave. It was a rental so we did not have a jump box or jumper cables. You also have zero cell service inside of and for a few miles outside of the campsite so we could not call anyone for assistance. We asked the ranger for help and he said he could help with making a phone call but I was very surprised that they did not have a jump box inside of the ranger station. It was a fairly large building with electric service. Im sure it is a fairly common issue with campers and I think it would be a great thing to have with the staff for anyone who has issues, especially since it is so remote. Hopefully the NPS adds it to their on-site equipment in the near future.

Great Campsite!! I have camped in all 3 national park campsites in Rainier and its difficult to pick which one I love the most. We were a group of three and we found a walk-in campsite on Thursday morning.
