The region is made up of forests, mountains, rivers, beaches and deltas – and surrounded by sound and sea. This freshwater/saltwater park makes a perfect day or weekend trip.

Beautiful, friendly staff. New hot tub. We really enjoyed our stay.
TravelerNice campground with all the amenities of a hotel. Full hook ups, showers, BBQ’s, games, hot tub, laundry facilities, game room with fireplace and pool table all with a beautiful view of the Hood Canal!
Scout
This is a Thousand Trails facility. Lots of spaces but not many with sewer. It’s first come and you pick a empty spot. If you can find one. Only a few have water views. I forgot a couple of things so was really happy the store was open. I saw the hot tub and mini golf. There was a large open grassy area to play . Everyone was pretty nice.
Guide
We really enjoyed our stay here it was very quiet and peaceful sites were long and roomy with a fire ring and picnic table. Good cell service with AT&T and Sprint. The pool was closed and no hot tub decent club house with a pool table. We did not use the laundry but it looked fine. Our site was 30 amp only all 50amps were taken and there are only a few of them.
Scout
Tenting areas are 10-15 feet from the road, so very noisy all night long. The road is 35mph, so it’s noisy.
Otherwise everything was nice. Plenty of amenities - showers, pools, hot tub, mini golf etc. staff were friendly as well.
Staying in an RV would be okay as they are further away from the road. It’s just unfortunate that the tenting spots (8-10 tents max) is so close to the road. It’s close enough that my tent would rustle with each car moving past.
I was fortunate enough to get the only flat tent space - all other tent sites are on a gentle lean.
Summary: nice spot, but don’t rent here. I would give it a 4 star review if I were staying in an RV, but need to put the warning out for others who tent
Guide
It’s a nice little place, down on the hood canal, very cozy. We stayed down at a cabin and it was pretty empty, which was nice. The cabin was a bit older, but it has a charm to it, everyone had service there too. I’d recommend bringing a small boat out if you can, sunset on the hood canal was great, we saw some porpoises. Overall, I’d go back again if I wanted a quiet little getaway without the haste of camping.
Guide
Great county operated campground campsites are spacious and private. Reserve ahead very popular especially during the summer. Flushing toilets and showers. Lake access with boat launch and fishing dock. Small loop trail. We do enjoy this campground for a quick getaway. Fall camping here is beautiful.
Cabins available, also the most amazing playground.
Traveler
Was rented for a rustic wedding. Has industrial kitchen. Amazing views. Impressive outdoor fireplace. Lots of bunk space in cabins. Area for tents. Newer cabins were very nice. Older cabins were institutional and smelly.
ScoutMy Questival team stayed at Flowing Lake in cabins in October, and we loved it! Cabin was clean and warm despite chilly weather! Loved it!
Guide
We stayed in a cabin at Quarry Pond. The cabin was beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. Bathrooms were great and even have showers. Close to the beach and tons of hiking trails. My kids did not want to leave!
Scout
So I actually work for fort worden hospitality. And I’ve noticed you guys have tent cabins on the list even though our tent cabins are still in the process of being built. And are unavailable for use due to not being completed in the timely fashion due to funding constraints
Guide
The prices for everything is amazing! The campsites are spacious and run along the creek! There are tent pads that make the ground not so hard under your tent. A table, grill and campfire ring at every site. The cabins are very nice! And are spacious as well. Have a porch swing, campfire ring, table and grill outside. Most cabins have an electric heater and a heat stove inside. The heat stove heats up the entire cabin very well!! They provide trash cans and bags and a broom to help keep the dirt cleaned up!
The bathrooms are very nice and clean. And they have firewood for sale on site. There is an attendant that will be there after work hours for people who are arriving late to get you checked in and answer questions you have. There are a couple of hiking trails, twin lakes, boats, canoes, and bikes to rent on site. There is also an enclosed dog park on site. There are tent sites, cabins, rv sites and even little apartments to rent for your stay. Great place and only 25 miles from town!
GuideOur families rented some cabins together. They are newer and made for a great way to visit and camp in comfort. The restrooms are still in a shared location not far from the cabins and are clean and well maintained. The only downside is we were located on the opposite side of the highway from the water. But, overall a comfortable way to stay at Deception Pass.
GuideWe typically visit the cabins here in the winter, so we don’t usually partake in the summer activities of swimming, boating, etc., but we do love coming here in the winter. The cabins are heated and have bunk beds, which makes for a cozy retreat into nature in the winter. The only reason that this spot did not get full stars is because the park has had transients hiking through the trails (which made for a scary 2 a.m. bathroom break).
Guide
Simple CCC cabin along a little river on the eastern side of Olympic NP. This is easy to get to in 2-3 seasons and will probably require a snowy hike (or jeep) in winter. Beautiful trees and close to some nice hiking trails. The campground of the same name is busy since it’s the closest Olympic NP campground to Seattle, but this cabin is secluded from all that. You still need to reserve it weeks in advance all year round!
Scout
Do not choose a site by the cabins or field, you will be disappointed. Choose a large site by the river!
LegendWe usually stay here during our annual shrimping trips. The site is in a valley so when heavy rainfall happens you will get muddy, swampy sites. During sunshine, the place is great.
The campground has cabins, rustic shelters, and tent and rv site. The cabins are great for families and have a bunk bed and futon set up with a table set and even heaters.
Bathrooms and showers on site, though showers will cost you. Sites are pretty open, though there are a few that are a bit hidden. Lots of areas to hike and explore, even a hidden waterfall a short drive away.
Great for shrimping, clamming and oyster hunting.
Scout
Campground located on the ocean. Some full hook ups, cabins, club house. Most sites treed although an area of parking lot type spots as well.
Traveler
Jim creek military campground is beautiful. Scenic views, tons of amenities, spacious RV spaces, very clean, and friendly staff. Great place for families! Boating, kayaking, and hiking on site. Tent, RV, and cabins available.
Scout
Maybe half full in late March. Sites have decent space. Rocky Beach and some short hikes. Cabins seem to be more of a party area so choose sites away from there if you want quiet.
Legend
Ashley here from The Dyrt! It was great to add this property that offers 6 private cottages with a private jacuzzi. "What makes Country Cottage of Langley special is the fact that each of our Cottages sits among the life and color of our famous gardens. You can enjoy the sweet scent of flowers in bloom from the patio of your Cottage or listen to the croak of the Pacific chorus frog." Check them out and leave some reviews!
ScoutCuldesac design on main area, but not a lot of full hookups. Many with just water & electric. Section by river and in another in trees. Not a lot of showers (4 women's total). Love the classic feel to the park. Cabins available.
GuideBeautiful setting, several trails, etc. Definitely a tourist destination campsites are a little close for comfort but it is very nice large campground. Beach access as well as a freshwater Lake lots of day use areas as well. Some cabins available, mostly standard sites.
Guide

RangerPerfect spot for saltwater activities including clamming, oysters, crabbing and shrimp, hiking and watching fall salmon running! This state park has a variety is sites, from tent, hookup, cabin, group camp sites, and platform tents. Great hiking trails and salmon running in the river in fall. We watched two bald eagles building a nest in a tree near the river one late winter.
