13 campgrounds with availability next weekend
Several full-hookup RV parks operate year-round near Granite Falls, Washington. Cascades RV Resort in Sultan provides concrete pads with 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. Tall Chief Campground in Fall City accommodates large motorhomes with 30-amp service and water hookups. Thousand Trails Thunderbird in Monroe features full hookups including 50-amp electrical service, though the campground roads can be challenging to navigate. Lake Pleasant RV Park in Bothell maintains a high 4.7-star rating with 50-amp electrical, water, and sewer connections for larger RVs. "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."
Seasonal availability varies across mountain-adjacent properties. Many parks require advance reservations, particularly during summer months when occupancy rates peak. Cedar Grove Shores RV Park and Lake Ki RV Resort both allow pets and provide sanitary dump stations for guests. Cell service can be unreliable in areas closer to the Cascade foothills, with one reviewer noting "Verizon cell service is very spotty. When I did pick it up, I only had one bar." Navigating mountain roads requires caution, especially with larger rigs. Parks closer to urban areas like Bothell and Monroe generally offer more reliable internet connectivity and easier access to supplies, while those in more remote locations provide greater separation between sites and reduced road noise.
"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."
"Lots of trees in our section separating us but in other sections your really close to each other. It is first come first serve and lucky us we got 50 amp."
"Riverside no sewer hookups but have dump station by where you check in. Perfect to check in dump if you stay on river side. Train goes by various times."
"WiFi wasn’t the best but hot spots worked well enough. Showers and restrooms were clean"
"Some sites are back-in, some pull-through. Some are lakefront. All are FHU. There is also one yurt. Site Quality: Paved camper pad on level sites."
"They have water, propane, and a dump. They also have great long-term rates."
from $62 - $750 / night
"What a great camp ground, has a beautiful lake the people that work there are so nice they keep the showers clean and the grounds."
"We wanted somewhere not too far away from our rental pick up in Seattle and chose this resort. There was a Walmart and Safeway nearby where we could get stocked up."
from $60 / night
"The proximity to the lake is very nice. The park is very well kept. This is a bit close to businesses, but still feels pretty sereen."
"This rv resort was way better than we were expecting, as a last minute add on."

ScoutThis place covers your basics. Electric and water hookup, tight parking with neighbors less than 1ft away on both sides. The rating I gave is mostly a reflection of the staff though. The staff were not friendly, seemed annoyed that I was booking with them and provided incorrect information on how to park/setup so I had to turn my 33ft rig around 3 times in these very narrow driveways.
GuideThis historical campground has a great deal of history. It is one of the few forts that actually has 2 guns still in place. The campground is showing it's age but still a great place to be. Some of the sites are not private, others are slightly more private. The water flow can be a bit temperamental. There are lots of trails, a beach, bunkers to explore and a museum. During the summer there are kayak rentals, a little store and even paragliding. Fun place for all ages.
TravelerWe stay at bay view when ever we are in the area. Staff is great & the views are beautiful.
ScoutNo shower or bathroom but the staff is friendly and the space is a slice of quiet nature. Imrated 4 stars because it is the most confusing location for a driver or friend to find. It's nestled behind a Shell station and Google Maps will deliver your guests to a parking lot across the street..
ScoutThis place is so nice. We felt welcomed as soon as we walked to the check-in desk. Dave and Victoria are so kind. This place is so nice and neat and clean. They have a pool and a hot tub which is a plus and a sauna. It was very nice to be able to chatter with them and joke back-and-forth like they were old friends. You can’t go wrong staying here. The only thing is I hate to tell anyone how nice it is cause then I might not be able to get in.
ScoutMy review is from my own experience but there are numerous other reviews that express my same sentiments. I was there 7 years and only had infractions during one month. (all from the same ranger) and one speeding infraction.
Port Susan Camping Resort has been a bad experience for me and presently turned to bitter. I sold my lot but the check got lost in the mail. I asked the sales agent to replace the check and I have waited approximately 35 days! I finally asked the board to intervene. This is bad business. This is a sample of the treatment or abuse I was given at Port Susan from the sales office. Replacing a check is easy and the money is not even drawn on Port Susan, it comes from the buyer. What would happen if I were paid but the buyer could not access the lot or wasn't given a gate pass or if the sales had to wait for their commission for 35 days after the sale? I was treated so unfairly! They showed me lots for sale with BLACK MOLD.I would think I am being targeted once again but there are many complaints that have been filed about poor management, unfair fines and being targeted if you speak up. The only recourse you have is to go to Tribal court since Port Susan Camping resort is Tribal owned. If you ask me this is a conflict of interest? Bottom line, absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Port Susan is like living under communist rule: The board took a vote to install 50 amp service, the members voted against it because most trailers use 30 amp. The 50 amp was installed any way and members have to pay for it. I spoke up on Campers Chat, but PSCC has the right to determine what will be allowed to be viewed. Freedom of Speech, NOT sat Port Susan. Members have to be careful who they speak to, if they speak against unfair fines to one of"them" they will be targeted. I have been targeted by one ranger who gave me 1200.00 worth of fines in one month. There used to be one ranger who patrolled lots 24 hours a day now there are 2 or 3. You are under constant survelience and fined for violations. Port Susan changes the rules constantly. One example, the road going downhill to the laundra mat and mailbox changed the speed limit to 5 miles per hour. Try going down a hill at 5 miles per hour. I was fined 200.00 at 5:00 am. This was thrown out because no one could do this but later going down hill to the front gate is a radar controlled system. I accidentally was going 17 mph in a 15 mph and was fined 400.00 for going over the speed limit for a 2nd infraction! no where in this country has fines like this but PSCC has unlimited power and no jusidiction. If you take it Tribal Court,( they lease the land to Port Susan you can be held liable to pay the attorney fees against Port Susan. There is less than 30 years on the lease so your membership is a poor investment. Not to mention that they have water pipe problems and boil water warnings posted periodically. If they decide to change all the water pipes the members will pay. I had rats get into my trucks. One was towed to Toyota and they found a rat. The rats got into the cab. I replaced this truck with a brand new Honda and during an oil change was notified that rat tracks were found all over my distributor cover and it was only at my site for 2 weeks!!! Many members tell the truth once they leave and abuse and mistreatment is the norm. THIS IS A FEAR BASED COMMUNITY Good luck with your purchase
ScoutStayed here 2 nights... . sign in and yu can stay for free 3 nights. If yu want electrical and water, it is 20$ . Wifi in the casino. Friendly staff.
ScoutFull Hookups at the waters edge at a marina with great views. But packed together with no picknic table or fire pit. Next to restaurants and shopping. It’s different
LegendGreat spot to stay while visiting the area. There are trails to hike and wildlife to observe in camp. We needed to charge batteries so opted for a full hook-up site. The sites are nestled in the trees giving you some privacy from other campers.
One thing to note is that the main restrooms are already closed for the season. Half the available restroom/shower combinations for the TH and boat ramp were closed as well. I spoke with a camp host who stated they were having vandalism problems and were in need of repairs to the drainage systems so they opted to close them early. The water in the CG was still on and the dump station was also operational.
Overall a great place to stay while visiting Anacortes.
Camping options near Granite Falls, Washington range from full-hookup RV facilities to riverside campsites. Located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, the area sits at elevations between 400-700 feet and receives approximately 50 inches of annual rainfall. Morning fog commonly settles in valleys during fall camping seasons, with temperatures dropping significantly after sunset.
Fishing opportunities: At Cascade Kamloops RV Park, campers can fish in the on-site pond. "Cute little place. Laundry, fishing pond and restrooms," notes one reviewer.
Walking trails: The lakeside setting at Lake Pleasant RV Park offers nature walks around the property. "Around the perimeter of the park are short hiking trails through the trees — somewhat steep gravel trails that give you an added level of workout over laps around the park," according to one camper.
Wildlife viewing: Bird watchers can enjoy resident waterfowl at several parks. "Lots of geese, ducks, and bunnies are around the property," mentions a Lake Pleasant visitor, while another notes "the geese are happy residents here so expect a lot of goose poop at any spot near the water."
Proximity to Seattle: Tall Chief Campground offers a convenient base for exploring. "We love Tall Chief because it is super close to a lot of great spots around the Seattle region. It's super close (like 7 min drive) from one of my favorite coffee shops, Aroma Coffee Co."
Site spacing: Larger camping spots provide comfort for bigger rigs. "Great camp site for all sizes. Mostly no sewer. But if you enjoy a little distance between sites without sacrificing camp size line up here," writes one Tall Chief reviewer.
Clean facilities: Many parks maintain high standards for bathrooms and common areas. At Cascades RV Resort, one long-term camper reports "it is a lovely RV resort with large concrete pads with astroturf lawn and picnic table. Everyone is friendly. Nightly noise is never excessive."
Reservation requirements: Booking ahead is essential during peak seasons. For example, "We wanted somewhere not too far away from our rental pick up in Seattle and chose this resort," noted one visitor to Lake Ki RV Resort.
Seasonal limitations: Weather impacts camping experiences year-round. "Monthly rates if you staying more than two weeks. On site storage if you need to leave your rig for a few days," explains one Lake Pleasant reviewer regarding extended stays.
Noise considerations: Traffic and train noise affect some campgrounds. At Thousand Trails Thunderbird, "Tenting areas are 10-15 feet from the road, so very noisy all night long. The road is 35mph, so it's noisy."
Power limitations: Electrical capacity varies between parks. "Knocking another star as the majority of the sites are only 30 amp with antiquated posts. There are a few 50 amp sites but from what I saw they were all taken by RVers that are there on a more permanent basis," reports a Tall Chief camper.
Playground access: Several parks offer dedicated play areas. "The pool, miniature golf, playground and basketball were great," shares one Tall Chief visitor regarding family amenities.
Pet policies: Most rv parks near Granite Falls, Washington welcome pets with specific rules. Cedar Grove Shores RV Park allows pets, but restrictions may apply depending on breed and size.
Supply proximity: Consider distance to grocery stores when planning meals. "The park is across the street from a Safeway which was very convenient. Also very close to some excellent restaurants in Bothell," notes one Lake Pleasant camper.
Dump station logistics: Friday Creek Campground requires planning for waste management. "Creek in the backyard, nice and secluded. Do have to bring tote up to location," advises one RV camper.
Cell reception variability: Internet connectivity fluctuates throughout the region. "Another thing that can be annoying is trying to find a site with good cell reception due to all the trees. They definitely have a few, but I would say arrive early so you can drive by all the sites while checking," recommends a Tall Chief visitor.
Laundry facilities: On-site laundry availability differs between Granite Falls area rv parks. "Their laundry room is very well kept and only $1 each for the washer and dryer!" shares a Lake Pleasant reviewer.
Hookup limitations: Sewer connections aren't universal. "Stayed 3 months for work, perfect beautiful, CHEEP CHEEP, not too good to be true, just right. All hook ups included. (Bring your dump tote!) easy easy easy dump station," advises a Tall Chief camper.
