    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Fort Flagler Historical State Park Campground accommodates pets in its cabin, tent, and RV sites throughout the year. The park provides full hookup options with electric, water, and sewer connections along with picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Kitsap Memorial State Park Campground sites are close together with limited privacy between camping neighbors, though the park includes a large field area ideal for exercising dogs. Both state parks maintain pet-friendly policies requiring dogs to remain on leash at all times. Reviews indicate some campgrounds in the area offer wooden fences around individual sites, adding a nice separation for pet containment. Sites with hookups at Fort Worden Historical State Park allow up to two pets per reservation, while Beach Campground features additional pet waste stations throughout the grounds.

    Several trail systems near Hansville campgrounds provide excellent dog walking opportunities with water access points along shorelines. Lower Oak Bay Park offers waterfront camping with stunning views of Puget Sound, though sites are very small with no separation between neighbors and pit toilets only. Port Ludlow RV Park features a forested setting that provides greater privacy for campers with pets while maintaining proximity to shoreline areas. The park's wooded layout creates natural boundaries between sites, reducing pet-to-pet interactions. Campers should be aware that most Hansville-area campgrounds enforce quiet hours to minimize barking disturbances. The nearby waterfront provides excellent opportunities for dogs who enjoy beach exploration, though wildlife encounters require vigilance with pets, especially during early morning and evening hours when deer and other animals are most active.

      Dash Point State Park Campground

      Dash Point Beach

      Really cute camp spot and play area!! Pet friendly and dog park! Went here on our trip to Tacoma north of the city. Very nice beach and area!! There's also a light house to check out while you are here!

      Lake Pleasant RV Park

      Best option near seattle

      There aren’t many rv parks that are close (35ish mins) to Seattle but this is the best option. Office staff is friendly, bathrooms are clean, laundry is cheap ($1 wash), maintenance staff is constantly tending to the grounds, full hook ups, and cute (short) hiking paths surrounding the park. The lake is more of a murky pond and the geese are happy residents here so expect a lot of goose poop at any spot near the water. There’s also no dog park.

      Riverfront RV Park

      Good!

      Good little RV park, within walking distance of a dog park, children's park and public bathrooms which is nice. Only downside is that there is not septic at the spots which for $40 a night I would think that they would, but the water is clean and overall the whole lot is nicely kept up with and clean.

      Burlington-Anacortes KOA

      Oversell on Amenities

      The campground itself is very clean, you can tell the owners take pride it in. The showers are warm, not as hot as I’d like but very very nice! The dog park is gravel, so that was a bummer. The hot tub, indoor pool, and and gym are closed for the season. Not sure how those are seasonal. Overall it’s clean and quiet.

      Evergreen Coho SKP Park

      For Escapee members only

      Wonderful RV park for long term Escapee-ers or members just passing through. We stopped here for a night, arriving on the weekend with no prior reservations or contact with them. They make it easy for you to self register when they're closed on weekends, just go up to the office and take one of their welcome packets. 

      We stayed in a dry camp site for only $7.50, and paid $5 for the dump (dump is only for members as well). FHU sites are around $33 depending on in-season/off-season, but I don't know how we would have figured out which sites were available. There are so many activities and amenities here for the long termers (I believe it's a 55+ park), I couldn't even list them all. 

      Showers and laundry were clean and efficient. There's a dog park and a dog walking path (there are signs everywhere about not letting your dog pee or poo on their nice plants). Cell service was good and they have good wifi as well. This would definitely be a spot we'd stop at again when we're in the area next.

      Heart O' the Hills Campground — Olympic National Park

      great location

      We have stayed here many times. This campground has everything you need for a nice getaway. The sites are somewhat private, the bathrooms are sufficient, and there are trails to explore close by. The campground IS in the National Park, so make sure you have your Access Park Pass or you must pay the entrance fee to the park. Also keep in mind that National Park rules apply to dogs. So you will want to keep your pet leashed at all times, or risk a hefty fine.

      Riverfront RV Park

      Urban Camping At Its Best

      Great spot for an Overnighter on the road through quaint Sedro-Woolley WA, this spot contains amenities for all, along with RV parking and a handful of tent lots. If you care to go swimming it has easy access directly to the lake with a primitive boat launch meant for smaller, canoe-like, vessels. Clean Restrooms, no showers, but they have a stage and performances during the summer months and two Parks, meant for all ages! Surrounding areas to explore include a Dog Park just across the way, and a spooky hike among abandoned buildings which were once part of Northern State Mental facility. Be sure to take in the Train display at the Town’s enterance and have a great trip!

      Rainbows End RV Park

      Good RV park near Sequim, Port Angeles, Olympic National Park

      I’ve stayed at Rainbow’s End twice. Both times were in their overflow camping area, which are two spots with water and electric only, under some trees which made for comfortable shade. The staff at the park are nice and professional, the facilities are always clean, and there is a large dog park (it has a somewhat short fence, perfect for my small dogs but be careful with bigger animals). Lots of people live at Rainbow’s end full time. It’s very clean and well maintained. You do get some road noise from the US 101, but it’s not too noticeable. If you aren’t taking advantage of water and electric hookups, it could be a little expensive.

      Riverfront RV Park

      Off the beaten tracks

      Affordable stay  $25 @7/2020.    Closing at end of month for renovations.   

      Well kept large quiet park.  Great dg waking areas; including a dog park.  Some sites with trees for shade.   Hookups work.   Free city dump station within a mile; easy to access.  2 clean bathrooms; no shower.  Manager on site.   Gate locked by 10pm.   Access through older well kept neighborhoods.   Grocery store on main road.  Lorenzo-s was closed due to COVID; we ate their 10 years ago; mighty good rellanoes.   Gave it 4 as one toilet with very slow flush!   Perhaps renovations will solve that problem.  Perhaps showers will be included; they could charge more.


    Guide to Hansville

    Camping options near Hansville offer varied terrains from forested areas to waterfront settings, with most locations receiving 30-40 inches of rainfall annually. Sites at several parks remain open year-round despite the Pacific Northwest's wet winter season, with full hookup options typically limited from April through October. Accessibility varies significantly depending on specific park regulations.

    What to do

    Beach exploration at low tide: Fort Flagler Historical State Park Campground provides excellent shoreline access with unique marine life viewing opportunities. Camper Linda M. notes, "I absolutely love it here. You can walk the beach or walk the beautiful forest. Well maintained, great camphosts and a cool snack shack."

    History tours and bunker exploration: Fort Worden Historical State Park offers historical structures throughout the grounds. "There is a lighthouse that still functions and plenty of beach access. You could even play tennis here if you wanted," shares Ryan L., making it an educational component to pet friendly camping near Hansville.

    Kayaking and water sports: The protected waters around Fay Bainbridge Park create ideal conditions for paddling. According to Taylor M., it's a "Great spot on the edge of bainbridge. Lots of spots depending on your preferred privacy level. Right by the beach with volleyball courts, a covered rec area, kids jungle gym, and (relatively) clean bathrooms."

    Wildlife viewing: Dosewallips State Park Campground features frequent elk sightings throughout the camping areas. Visitor Michael B. reports, "From the campsite we had access to the river and if you are a fisher, there was a nice log you could comfortably sit on at camp that looked down on the water."

    What campers like

    Spacious camping areas: Fort Flagler Historical State Park Campground receives consistent praise for its site dimensions. "Spacious campground compared to most. Great views and several trails. Definitely will be back. Has electrical hook-ups and water," shares Jack P.

    Waterfront views: Lower Oak Bay Park offers direct bay access with minimal barriers between campsites and water. One camper reported, "Wonderful campsite, clean bathroom and stunning views!" demonstrating the appeal of Hansville-area waterfront camping.

    Off-season quietude: Winter camping presents opportunities for solitude at several pet friendly camping sites near Hansville. Mike K. from Fort Flagler notes, "Awesome fall and winter camping. First come first serve after Oct 31st. Spend a long weekend there last week. No problem finding 2 sites side by side for 40 ft rigs."
