Campground was very pretty and has a lot of potential. Our hosts were pleasant and helpful. Unfortunately we left early for several reasons.

The sites and campground were well maintained, except for the trees. Our campsite was surrounded by trees with many dead branches, which was a safety concern even without the high winds during our stay.

The other issue to be mindful of if you are tent camping is the bright lights that shine into the campsites from 12 and up. Our hosts said it's from a government owned facility adjacent to the campground but the lights are bright enough to illuminate the shoreline opposite the campground.

Our main reason for leaving early was the disruptive group of children allowed to stay alone at the campsite opposite ours. They started yelling and running through the campground and our site at 6am, hit our car at one point, and had no supervision from their parents who stayed in a completely different area at the campground. They were progressively worse throughout the day and would not stay our of our space even though there were multiple empty creekside sites they could have used for water access. We understand you don't get much privacy in campgrounds like this but we do expect that quiet hours will be observed and people will stay out of occupied sites.

We loved Cottonwood! Sites were spacious and secluded, and vault toilets were clean and barely smelled. Amazing! We were there in early August. It is a fairly long drive (an hour) to Rainier hikes at Sunrise and White River, but the relative quiet of the forest was worth it. We'd hike first thing in the morning, then return to camp to swim in the river in the hot afternoons. We were lucky campfires were still allowed--apparently they forbid fires at the height of fire season in late summer. Pam was an excellent camp host, and we hope to be back in future summers!
