    La Conner Marina RV Resort

    Decent Level Sites

    Nice location conveniently located near the Marina, close to everything.

    Premium sites are double wide and have a spot to park your RV AND Vehicle. Discount for Good Sam Club members.

    Premium Sites $55 before discount (back-in only) Pull-through Sites $55 before discount Regular Back-in Site $45

    All sites have Full Hookups, Picnic table & a minor grassed Area.

    We stayed in a Premium site, enjoyed the view of the Fields behind us. Extremely quiet, open, not dusty. Downside, people don’t pick up after their Pets. We have two Shelties & think of others so we’re not the Culprits…

    Otherwise, pleasant overall. Laundry accepts cards only which is extremely convenient since coins are hard to come by.

    5G t-Mobile is 5-stars at our Site, it’s not listed as an option yet.

    North Sound Recreational Vehicle Park

    Simple Urban RV Park

    This is very much an RV park and not really a campground. Seems like a clean little park, but right in the middle of Lynnwood, so if you are looking for a rural setting this isn't for you. 

    They offer weekly and monthly rentals, so this is more of a long-term sort of place. 

    Website: Northsound RV Park

    ​Requirements from their site: 

    • Your travel trailer must be year 2005 or newer 
    • Pet friendly(limit 2) not to exceed 25 lbs. Aggressive breed restrictions apply. 
    • No conversion vehicles - sorry van and bus life people 
    • No trailers larger than 35' long, ideally.

    Hidden Village RV Park & Campground

    Great price, very nice manager lady.

    I rented a long term space here for over 2 years while working in Washington. Price was by far the best around. It's a very good sized place with spaces to accommodate even the largest trailers. Even when full there's room to maneuver.Full hookups, wifi, bathrooms, shower, laundry room, swimming pool. Has seperate parking for boats, utility trailers etc. Lots of big trees around for a fair amount of shade. Is pet friendly. Manager lady is very nice. Has a separate non power section for tents or dry camping. It's not the fanciest but for the price is great.

    Kayak Point County Park

    Small woodsy campground with beach access

    All campsites are surrounded by trees so choose carefully if you need a pull through or if you have a large rig that you’re trying to back up. We had a small camper van and it fit perfectly. Campsite is on a bluff above the beach, but you can’t see the sunset from the campground you would have to go down to the beach. Bathroom/shower is typical for a state or county campground - functional, but zero elegance. This one is a county campground and state or federal passes do not apply. Water and 30 amp electric at all sites except one tent site. Douglas squirrels are common and shy. Pets are welcome on leash.

    Washington Park Campground

    Anacortes Camping

    Great medium size campground surrounded by saltwater, short trails, and grassy picnic areas. Great views of islands and sunsets. Boat launch with large paid parking area. Walking distance to Skyline Marina for a variety of ocean activities. We went on a whale tour and encountered atleast 10 Orcas. Campground can be muddy in some spots. Mostly reservations, 14 day in advance, but there a a few first come first serve sites. Some with water and electric. Motorhome, trailers and tents. Some spots looked like they could handle 40 foot rigs. A couple longer pull throughs. Very shelterd anthrough. Not much good for solar. Showers and restrooms.

    Olympic Peninsula-Port Angeles KOA

    Peaceful, friendly, comfortable

    We stayed 3 nights in a quiet site that backed to a farm field with cows. Nice and spacious sites, really a nice family-friendly and dog-friendly campground with nice scattered tree cover and landscaping. I could tell families come back to this one for getaways. Laundry and camp store with nice supplies. Great friendly staff. Would for sure stay here again en route to Olympic National Park.

    Military Park Jim Creek Naval Radio Station Jim Creek Wilderness Recreation Area

    So much to do!

    It had been 15 years at least since I'd been to Jim Creek. Since then, they've done some nice upgrades. The rv pads are double wide concrete pads about 50 feet long with full hook-ups. All sites include a fire pit, picnic table, and grill with ash bucket and grill cleaning brush. The rv park is close to the recreation office that has a little gift shop with snacks and drinks. This is also where you can rent equipment such as bikes, fishing poles, boats, etc. They also have a movie theater upstairs that operates on Saturday. This building has a 24 hour lounge with free wifi, TV, dvds, books, markers, coloring books, games, and other things for visitors to use. The wifi was only supposed to work inside the building, but I could pick it up in my campsite once or twice during our stay. Verizon cell service is very spotty. When I did pick it up, I only had one bar. There are several hiking trails and you can drive about 5 miles back to Twin Lakes to fish or just take a rented boat out or just enjoy the view. Jim Creek is a Naval Radio station and is for active duty military, retired, DoD, and reserves. There is a gate and you must show id to get in. Because of this and the base police roll through once or twice a day, I felt very safe compared to a state park or even a private campground. We camped Tuesday-Friday and even when it started filling up in Thursday, it was still super quiet at night. Quiet like not even bug sounds. That was wonderful.

    Olympic Peninsula-Port Angeles KOA

    One of the better KOA's I've seen

    We usually travel with a pop-up camper and tend to prefer USFS campgrounds or dispersed camping. But we are currently travelling in a rented 30' RV during a holiday week, so we decided to give this KOA a try.

    I was pleasantly surprised! We stayed in site 130 for 2 nights, and it was quiet and peaceful, despite the proximity to hwy 101. We arrived late at night and had no problem getting checked in and finding our assigned spot. We opted for a site with electric and water hookups. It had a picnic table and a fire ring, but we didn't get a chance to use them because we were constantly on the go. Our site was $63.99/night.

    They have Wifi, which was a nice feature that we weren't expecting. There is a picnic pavilion, horseshoes, tetherball, a swimming pool, a playground, a game room, and these really cool looking big wheel things that you can rent for $5/30 minutes. There is also a nice little general store that offers most things a camper could need. The folks who work there are very friendly and helpful. They offer free showers and a sink with hot water for washing dishes also. There is a large laundry room, but we didn't use it. We refilled on water and propane and we used their dump station before we left.

    Overall, this KOA was clean and quiet and offered many amenities. I definitely recommend it if you're looking for "camping" with all the luxuries of home.

    Heart O' the Hills Campground — Olympic National Park

    Beautiful clean primitive campgrounds

    In the Olympic NP, close to Hurricane Ridge to the south, 15 min to town of Port Ángeles to the north. Camped in loop C. Had a beautiful private site. Old growth forest and hiking trails all around. No hookups, no dump station. Each site has fire ring, picnic table. Each loop has a clean, powered, plumbed bathroom, no showers. Would camp again.


Guide to Anacortes

The Anacortes region sits at the intersection of Puget Sound and the San Juan Islands, with elevations ranging from sea level to approximately 1,500 feet at higher points on Fidalgo Island. Seasonal changes affect camping conditions significantly, with summer temperatures averaging 60-75°F and winter bringing considerable rainfall. RV camping options near Anacortes provide varied terrain, from waterfront sites to wooded inland locations within 30 minutes of the ferry terminal.

What to do

Beach exploration at low tide: Friday Creek Campground serves as a convenient base, located just 15 minutes from the Anacortes ferry terminal. "Creek in the backyard, nice and secluded. Do have to bring tote up to bow location. Great showers," reports Danielle M., highlighting the natural water features accessible from the campground.

Wildlife viewing along shorelines: Cliffside RV Park offers excellent water access for wildlife spotting. "A lovely paved waterfront trail on the bluff and then an amazing sandy beach. At low tide, you can walk all the way to Rocky Point and beyond outside of the base," notes Emma A., who stayed at the military facility.

Mini golf and outdoor activities: For families seeking structured recreation, Thousand Trails La Conner offers on-site activities. "Mini golf is fun, and the walks to 'Lone Tree' at sunset are amazing," shares Kimberly W., describing the popular evening activity at this rv site near Anacortes, Washington.

What campers like

Flower gardens and landscaping: Military members staying at Cliffside RV Park appreciate the maintained grounds. Wendy C. remarked, "We have been living in our camper full time for the past 3 months and this is the prettiest campsite ever! Right on the ocean and the camp host plants stunning flower gardens throughout the park."

Proximity to natural attractions: North Whidbey RV Park provides easy access to nearby wilderness areas. "You are steps from the entry of Deception Pass State Park to find tons of hiking but if you venture right out of the driveway from the RV Park, you'll find the Cornet Bay side of the state park that offers quieter, lesser crowded trails," explains Kristin S.

Convenient ferry access: RV sites near Anacortes, Washington often serve as transition points to island exploration. "We spent 4 nights here as a jumping-off point to explore Whidbey Island and a day trip to visit Orcas Island," notes Kristin S. about North Whidbey RV Park's strategic location.

What you should know

Site size and leveling challenges: Some campgrounds have uneven terrain that requires adjustment. At North Whidbey RV Park, one camper noted, "We were in RV spot C-22 and it was quite a tight and unlevel location. The pavement on the grounds is not in great condition with lots of bumps and ditches."

Military aircraft noise: Proximity to Naval Air Station Whidbey Island means periodic jet noise. Jim J. mentions, "There is occasional noise from Naval Station Whidbey, but this camper doesn't mind the occasional sighting of a fighter jet."

Service outages occur: Temporary infrastructure issues can affect stays at Town and Country Motorcoach and RV Resort. Similar maintenance situations happen throughout the area, so calling ahead about current conditions is advised.

Limited sewer hookups: At Riverfront RV Park, availability of full services varies. "30 amp sites with water. Dump station was not on site," reports Kimberly Y., noting the need to plan for off-site dumping.

Tips for camping with families

Off-peak scheduling benefits: Visit during weekdays when possible to secure preferred sites. "Advanced reservations are highly recommended, especially during summer months and on weekends," is standard advice across most parks in the region.

Check security features: Riverfront RV Park offers gated access for added safety. Patricia K. noted, "Gate locked by 10pm. Access through older well kept neighborhoods," providing peace of mind for families with children.

Consider cabin options: For families testing camping without equipment investment, North Whidbey RV Park offers cabin rentals. "We spent the weekend here with my sister and her family who rented one of the cabins at the RV Park. The cabin was very simple, clean and had a well-stocked kitchen," shares Kristin S.

Tips from RVers

Double-check hook-up functionality: Before settling in, verify all connections work properly. At Mount Vernon RV Park, David E. reported, "We stayed in the overflow site directly next to the office with 20 amp electric only," highlighting the importance of confirming available services.

Length limitations matter: Confirm your total vehicle length before booking. "We called early afternoon and asked if they had a space for that night for a fifth wheel with total rig length 53ft," shares Jeanie S. about North Whidbey RV Park, emphasizing the importance of accurate measurements.

Consider light pollution: Some RV parks have significant nighttime lighting. One camper at North Whidbey noted, "There are plentiful street lamps within the campground that caused me to get up from bed and start hanging towels over windows to block the light."

Check for concrete pads: For improved stability, some sites offer concrete foundations. "Clean, well organized RV Park for big rigs," notes Jeanie S., adding that North Whidbey RV Park has "lovely grass around all the campsites, 50 Amp electricity, water and sewer."
