The United States deemed Cape Disappointment strategically significant enough to base military fortifications there during the Civil War and World War II. Construction of a lighthouse was complet­ed in 1856.

A beautiful campground, lots of hiking, beautiful beaches, and even a couple of lighthouses all add to the charm.
