Facility History
Mission Creek was opened in 1960 as a youth camp on land leased from the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Prior to construction of the camp, the site was forest land. The facility sits deep in the Tahuya Peninsula woods. The Mission Creek Youth Forest Camp originally housed 45 male juveniles. When the Juvenile Rehabilitation Administration no longer needed the facility, DOC took over the lease. MCCCW opened on April 13, 2005, starting with 80 inmates.
