Beautiful Lake Cushman


We camped at Dow Creek Resort in Hoodsport last weekend.  It was hot.  Record breaking heat for this area.  Luckily, the campground was wooded and shady.  
On Saturday we ventured a few miles down the road to Skokomish Park to hang out in the day use area.  There was a great little beach and swimming area.  We spent the day floating and sitting in the water.   It was also great people watching!  We had camped here a few years ago, but the water was low then and the weather wasn't as warm.
Lake Cushman is absolutely stunning.  The blue-green water with trees surrounding is just magical.  It would be fun to take the boat and explore it more.
There was a really cool rope swing along one of the trails.  The kids had a blast swinging and watching the other kids jump and flip.  Unfortunately Carson got his arm caught in the rope on his last jump and got a pretty bad rope burn.  He was hurting, but was also bummed that he couldn't use the rope swing anymore!
There were some great little trails in our campground.  The kids explored the creek and found a fun little waterfall.  They made friends and picked salmon berries.  It was a great spot and I’d love to camp there again!
