Schafer State Park, State park on Satsop River in Mason County, United States.
The 119-acre park features camping areas, hiking trails, and two miles of river access through forests in the Satsop Hills region.
The Schafer Brothers Logging Company transferred the land to Washington State in 1924, marking the first timber company donation for park purposes.
The park grounds hosted large company picnics between 1920 and 1940, gathering up to 6000 people for community celebrations.
Visitors can choose from 32 tent sites and 10 utility spaces, with facilities including showers, water stations, and covered picnic shelters.
Native Americans continue their traditional fishing practices in the Satsop River, where steelhead, cutthroat trout, and salmon remain abundant.
