"The kids had a blast exploring the fort and the forest around the campsite. There's a big beach with a small general store/burger joint within walking distance."
"As the beach side has a lot of open camping we opted for the side nearer the trails that had a feeling of being a step away from the woods. "
"The trade off is the endless opportunity for walking, hiking and learning the history of the area.
Charming Downtown Port Townsend is close by and a true National Historic resource! "
"Fort and battery tours. a real gem in Washington."
"It was a quick walk to views of the water, and there were plenty of walking trails around."
"The system in Washington is sometimes showing how overwhelmed and understaffed they are, and this park is so severely understaffed it’s sad."
"Take your family this summer to enjoy hiking trails, explore the remains of Fort Casey, and visit the diving park at Washington’s Keystone."
"Only 88 miles away from our home, a perfect getaway for a short trip. We are fairly new to the RV life style (always tent camped) and this only our 3rd trip in our new travel trailer."
$12 - $40 / night
"Some trails walking distance from the campsite to gorgeous beaches while others we drove to get to other trails and scenic lookouts. I loved every minute staying there."
"This is one of the most popular locations in Washington State and easy to see why. Both fresh and salt water experiences are within a few steps away with amazing sunsets and breathtaking views."
$32 / night
"I would also avoid #2 and #3 as they are literally directly next to the bathrooms and there is a bright metal halide light outside the bathroom."
"I'm slowly overtime trying to visit all of Washington's State Parks, and there are a large number of them in the Port Townsend area."
"When you want to get away from it all, but don’t want to travel far from the city, THIS is the spot. Spacious campsites. Running water. Flushing toilets. Showers. A tranquil Puget Sound experience."
"There is a trail that leads down to the water or you can hop in your car for a short drive. We did a walk up site and checked in late, the bathrooms were locked due to it being the off season."
$30 / night
"There are two sections to this small, tucked away campground on the edge of the Salish Sea, one in the forested area and another out on the beach spit."
"Nice stream of locals walking dogs and travelers on a pit stop."
"There is a big field to play ride bikes walk dog etc . The beach is really nice and nearby and at low tide is so peaceful to take a walk. There’s group activities too which is great for the kids."
"Also really close to the water which is cool. The spots with hookups are REALLY close together though."
$32 - $50 / night
"The bike trail runs through the campground and there is access to sports fields via a tunnel under the highway. There are a few short trails around a creek and the beach."
"The winding paths leading from the upper campsites to the water’s edge are a treasure trove for a photographer. Great fun."
ScoutI arrived early in the day on a Tuesday (around noon) and had no trouble finding a spot to park my van. I love the trees, and the short walk to the water. I will be coming back here for sure!
GuideWe felt very lucky to find this park as we did an impromptu search for 4th of July openings a week before the Holiday. A good reminder to check county and city campgrounds along with the bigger players such as State and Federal parks. This Snohomish County Park is close to Darrington, WA which makes it perfect for exploring the North Cascades and the Mountain Loop Hwy. If camping in a trailer, take special note of accessibility of the site by checking out the campground map. I’ve included a picture with sites I’ve checked for future use for us. The site we chose was based on length but it was narrow, with a tree branch that kept us from going further back on the site and some tricky turns to get to it. I would recommend the sites 1 - 11 area as most accessible for trailers. Most sites were very private. The park is beautifully forested and a trail takes you to Squire Creek where there’s a little beach area. The campground has flush toilets but no showers. If it had showers, I would have rated it 5 stars. If I could give it a 4.5 on this site, I would. We had a great time, wonderful camp host, and perfect weather.
TravelerThis is a lovely campground but it's a bit crowded. Due to the landscape there isn't a lot of privacy. Site was clean when we arrived and other than a group down at the group site that was playing loud music at midnight, it was quiet and the staff are friendly. You can pay for firewood at a kiosk using cash or credit card and then call for delivery. The bathrooms needed attention. On a busy weekend, they should be cleaned multiple times per day. One shower was out of order and the other didn't have hot water. Other than that, it was a decent experience. The park is gorgeous.
GuideVery friendly host and security guard met us on our arrival as we got there around 845pm. Place is brand new. Facility is more like a 3 or 4 star hotel. First time I was ever given a cookie at check in or where there were massage rooms available in the spa.
LegendThe good: close to ferry. Nice hiking nearby (2.7 mile loop). The bad: washrooms didn’t seem clean. No hand soap in washrooms. One of two showers in the women’s room in the C-loop broken. Would choose Deception Pass State Park even though it is a longer drive to the ferry.
TravelerPlenty of spots, but you need to reserve 3 hours before they close? We arrived with no reservation at 10pm and just parked and sorted everting out in the morning. Really just a grass lot, there were lots of vans, truck campers and people with tents by their vehicles set up. Nothing too fancy, seems like there are some bathrooms but we didn’t swing by. Spendy for what it was but it was what we needed.
LegendChecked in with the friendly folks. Escorted to our gravel, pull through site. Fairly level. Utilities worked well though I needed a sewer hose extension. The freeway is about a hundred yards away from the 50 amp pull through sites we were in. This section is the closest, hence all the noise day and at night. I had my white noise machine and fan on and I could still hear the trucks and all the drivers with their fart tube equipped sports car want-to-be's. Bring ear plugs. Rate was 90.00 plus a night, so a bit higher than the other 75.00 we have had in the last 4 weeks at other RV Parks. We did take a walk around. It was a bit quieter around the 30 amp RV sites, so you may want to plan for that and use your dog bone adapter if you have 50 amp service. I would rate this RV park a 3.5, but a 4.
ScoutI feel lucky to have gotten to stay here as for the week of the 4th it's booked solid. Great camp sites all with power and water. The showers have great water pressure and hot water. I was kinda disappointed that they aren't a little more private but still got the job done.
RangerWe used the boat launch to set out on our kayak trip. I adventured into the campground area to check it out. Some spots were right on the water from where we put in at. They appear close together but their wasn’t many people staying when I went by. They have water and bathrooms available. Great views and can spot orcas from here when they pass through.
