Dosewallips State Park is located in Brinnon about 44 miles south of Port Townsend.

'This freshwater/saltwater park makes a perfect day or weekend trip," according to the Washington State Parks website.

Dosewallips has 1,039 acres and 5 miles of shoreline on the Hood Canal and Dosewallips River.

Not only does the state park have forests, mountains, rivers and beaches, the area is "a delight" for clam-diggers, anglers, boaters and beach explorers, the state parks website stated.

"Evening may find you grilling up a shellfish dinner and retiring to your cabin or tent, where you'll fall asleep to the sound of the river, enchanted by this lush, green corner of the country," the website continued.
