Fort Casey Historical State Park Campground

Nice campground with a spot on view of the Coupeville Ferry Terminal and a nice easy walk up to the fort itself. Water is turned off at the sites in winter but can get some at the spigot near the bathroom if needed. Not a ton of privacy but beautiful and right on the water!

Definitely a nice area to Visit for our first time. Quite and the ferry comes right past the camp ground. Ferry doesn’t blast its horn unless there is a boat in the ferry path. Definitely worth to check out and check out the fort. Showers and nice very clean park.

Easy to pay and very clean bathrooms. It was very windy and rainy the night I stayed. I slept in the back of my old 4Runner and it felt like I was on a boat at times from the rocking of the car in the wind

We arrived late and found a great pull through site. The park staff were super helpful with our late evening questions. Convenient to the ferry for the morning line up! Nice hike up to the gun battery along the bluff.

Clean little campground. Decent spacing between sites. If there’s a storm in the forecast be ready for some wind. The view is great and the old military fort is fun to explore.

We've stayed here dozens of times and also have gone just for the day. It's right on the water and next to the ferry and it's super cool to see the ferry and lights at night. They keep the bathrooms and showers clean. I really like the showers because they are like one big room and separate from the bathroom. We've stayed at all times of the year. We actually grew up and are from the area so we've been there alot. The only drawback is your right next to people and there's no privacy. You're not in the woods. You are in a wide open space. I like that it's a smaller area and it's great for the kids! There is woods in the back and the kids love finding the "tunnels" in the bushes to get back there to play. They take really good care of the campground itself. Also love that there's a concrete loop around the campground that's perfect for my kiddos to ride bikes around and you aren't going a super far distance. When they are ready to go back to your spot it's literally right there.

We stayed on a Sunday night, arrived when there was only 3 tent sites remaining. The campground is right at the ferry dock so you will get that early morning fog horn. Easy walk up the hill to the fort. We had a bald Eagle in the morning which was awesome. The restrooms are very clean. Showers are available, but quarters are needed!!

Awesome

This small campsite is worth a visit. Breath taking view of the ocean and just minutes to the ferry. Book early if you need or want full hook up as there are limited sites with full hook up available.

Really neat military relics. Walk to the ferry to visit Port Townsend for the day. Camp in the deep woods. This place is awesome!

This campground has one loop and it is very open to your neighbors. The fort itself is an easy walk to go and explore the history of the area, plus it also has some fantastic views of the Puget Sound. The Port Townsend ferry is right there so you can enjoy watching the ferry come and go. It would also be a great day excursion to walk onto the ferry and spend the day walking around and exploring Port Townsend, it's about a 30 min ferry boat ride too. 

I did a Speed Test here at this campground as well but i cannot find the screen capture of the report but with my T-mobile hotspot I was getting 5 bars and had speedy internet to be able to work from this site if necessary in the future.

We visited Fort Casey in early November, 2020. We used the AC power and water hookups for our 25ft trailer. The site is located near the beach, so naturally there isn’t much privacy and you are constantly exposed to the elements. However, the beautiful water and mountain scenery more than compensate. Fort Casey provides a wonderful journey to the past. The guns and lighthouse give many hours of exploration. The expansive grass fields allow a place to run our dog and fly kites. We spent many hours exploring the beach and observing sea life. We were not disappointed and plan to return.

So much to see and do here. The old retractable gun emplacements, the lighthouse, the barracks, the parade field, the VIEWS, the kite flying, ....

Great views. Plenty to do: walk-on ferry to port Townsend, beach comb, fly kites, explore the lighthouse/bunkers. It’s a very popular site, even year round. Be sure to reserve your site well in advance.

This campground was the first we visited on the way up the island from the ferry. It is tiny and right next to the ferry dock with no cover or shade from the sun. Seeing the ferry come and go is neat but gets tiring. The spaces are close together and there is literally no privacy. You can choose a better campground by going further up the island.

Nothing beats camping at a historical Fort with breathtaking views and great motorcycle friendly activities.

Take your family this summer to enjoy hiking trails, explore the remains of Fort Casey, and visit the diving park at Washington’s Keystone.

Romantic sunsets and premium restaurants nearby make this a perfect lovers getaway just as much as a family fun trip.

Take your heart on a journey and Camp Washington State!

We love this small waterfront campground. Great beach and views with historic fort and bunkers. View if boats and cruise ships coming and going.

While I have never ACTUALLY camped here, I have been visiting the Fort since I was a child. Actually the first time was in 5th grade on a school trip and we stayed in the barracks :D. I have also stayed in the office quarters which are basic but still very comfortable and nice. The real attraction of the Fort is the Fort and Lighthouse. The Fort is fun to explore all the dark nooks and crannies. The light house is just cool. The land around the Fort is easy to hike around to see the different parts and buildings. And accessing the beach along the Sound is a little steep but manageable. I have driven through the campground itself and it seems very popular and a little cramped for my typical wants for camping i.e. space from my neighbors. But if you are more looking for a place to set-up a temporary home while you go exploring it would be perfect.
