August 17, 20178 yr If you visit Kaeng Krachan, especially the eastern side with the dam, there are camp sites around the government tourist lodge. Not sure if they rent tents, but it is possible. I hope you have a Thai speaker with you as English is very limited here. Even most signs are in Thai. Boats are available to take visitors to the island temple. It's a fun boat ride and you can feed the island monkeys if desired. Lots of places to eat around the lake as well. We live about 8 miles from the dam and like to drive over there to catch some great sunsets while eating dinner at one of the many food places.

Thanks mate, very useful informations, so you advice me the east part of the dam, is it true that the park could be close during the rainy season ? If it rains we will go to to hotel, can you advice me a nice boathouse hotel or a resort by the lake ?

The park area that closes during the rainy season is much further south from the dam and is 60 km west of Hua Hin. It's way down by the Pala-u waterfall and is also about 60 km south of the town of Kaeng Krachan. They might be open now as we have not had the huge rains other parts of Thailand have endured. One thing to note, if you do drive into the park where the waterfall is, is that the road where you pay to enter the park is a one way travel for most of the day and they reverse the travel late in the afternoon for people to leave. So, plan on a long day there if you enter early in the morning. Please NOTE! It's been 5 years since I've been to that part of the park so things might have changed by now. Sorry I can't provide better and more accurate details. I cannot recommend an upscale hotel either. There are many hotels advertised according to all the road side advertising but I've never stayed at any. Maybe Agoda has some hotels listed for this area.
