| Coho Campground -> [https://www.campsitephotos.com/campground/wa/south-beach/ South Beach Campground] (68 miles/1700ft): South Beach and [https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/232464/availability Kalaloch Campground] are both on the water but they are popular. SB is walk-ins only and Kalaloch takes reservations but all are filled? Not clear from the website what happens after the peak season (Sep 16) but nothing is reservable until next year. Call Kalaloch to see if it's now all walk-ins, the campground is closed for the season, or all sites are taken.
| |
| | |
| There seems to be a commercial campsite/lodge there too? [https://www.thekalalochlodge.com/stay/group-campsite Kalaloch Lodge] {{todo}}: call the gov to confirm whether their campsites are closed/walk-ins only now. If the gov campsites are closed, let's reserve a group site at this lodge?

| | |
| If nothing is available at South Beach or Kalaloch when we get there, we'd need to bike 22 more miles to [https://www.recreation.gov/camping/campgrounds/234016 Cottonwood Campground]. Around there, there are a few campsites and they should be FCFS but check. These sites are not on the water.

| The next beach campsite is Mora Campground, which is also reservable but maybe the peak season is over and the campground is closed?
