      Dash Point State Park Campground

      Nice campground, well maintained and rangers often patrol the campsite loops. Bathrooms are nice but dated, but quite expensive campground. Paying in-person was $49 for an RV spot with utilities, but booking online was $69 for the same site. Can be busy on the weekend.

      Trailer Inns RV Park (Bellevue)

      Delightful RV park close to the city

      This 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.

      Beautiful spot, lots of great spots for tents, rvs and travel trailers. Loved that there was plenty of space between campsites. Would spend multiple nights here!

      Nisqually Plaza RV Park

      First off you get what you pay for it's cheap but you're packed like sardines in a gravel lot that looks trashy as hell I didn't go in the restrooms because they don't have stuff there till after 6:00 p.m. so I was terrified by how disgusting they might be on top of it the owner is quite possibly the rudest most inconsiderate and unempathetic human I've ever encountered he gaslit the hell out of me he insulted my intelligence he lied about our conversations that place is so shady there's no checking or check out time written on their forms they will just make up a time that seems appropriate and then if you don't respond and how they like they'll tell you that you have to leave I thought it was just me but after moving to a beautiful Campground I talked to two out of their individuals that told me that they basically told him to F off and they would find somewhere else really horrible business practices and his sister is just as rude as he is trashy place with Shady practices and Shady people running it. Also if you're one that noise bothers you you will hate this because it's right on the highway and you can hear everything from every spot in the park. Especially if you're looking for nightly you can go down the street to the one they recommended and pay $18 less a night for way more beautiful place

      Port Ludlow RV Park

      Nice place, but closing 10/31/2026

      It IS a pretty, private, moderately priced rv park. Too bad -- there is a note announcing their permanent closure 10/31/2026. Enjoy it while you can!

      Dash Point State Park Campground

      Pretty but deceiving

      I wanted to like this campground, but I wouldn’t stay here again for more than maybe one night.

      There are signs EVERYWHERE warning about theft, which immediately tells you something about the area. I didn’t have anything stolen, but I was extremely careful about what I left out.

      The biggest problem is that you’re basically on your own after hours. There is no campground host, no posted after-hours ranger number, and no non-emergency number at the campground or through the park’s phone system. The staff hours also seem very limited and inconsistent. I arrived around 6:30 PM and nobody was there, and staff didn’t seem to return until around 9–10 AM.

      The bathrooms were dirty, out of toilet paper, and the showers were cold. One morning there was a large unleashed dog in the women’s bathroom that growled at me while its owner was showering. I believe she may have been homeless and using the facilities. Again, there was nobody around to contact about it.

      Another night, people were extremely loud until almost midnight. Same problem: no host, no ranger and no non-emergency number. Unless something is serious enough for 911, you’re left to deal with it yourself.

      There are also a lot of homeless people and visible drug addicts/drug activity around Federal Way. I had been warned about the area before coming here, and I understand why.

      The park itself is pretty and might be fine for a quick overnight stay, but for multiple nights, I wouldn’t recommend it. Between the theft warnings, lack of after-hours staff, weird staffing hours, and no way to report non-emergency problems, I never really felt comfortable settling into my campsite.

WA discover pass but free otherwise. It is patrolled regularly.

    Guide to Lakebay

Average summer temperatures reach the mid-70s while winter temperatures typically remain above freezing. Most campgrounds in this region feature gravel pads with trees providing natural shade during summer months.

    What to do

    Oyster and clam harvesting: At Mike's Beach Resort, the shoreline access makes it ideal for seafood collection. "If you like oysters and clams, this place is perfect. It's not fancy, tent sites don't have privacy between them. However, we had a blast here," shares one visitor who enjoyed the seafood gathering opportunities.

    Casino entertainment: The Little Creek Casino Resort RV Park offers gaming and dining options within walking distance of your campsite. A reviewer notes, "Very nice hotel and casino with reasonably priced food at the cafe," making it convenient for evening entertainment after a day of outdoor activities.

    Coffee exploration: Campers staying at Tall Chief Campground can visit nearby coffee shops as part of their morning routine. One camper recommends, "It's super close (like 7 min drive) from one of my favorite coffee shops, Aroma Coffee Co. Try it! You won't be disappointed!"

    What campers like

    Modern amenities: Sun Outdoors Gig Harbor receives praise for its updated facilities. "The new gym is awesome. One of the best I've ever seen for laundry," writes one guest who appreciated the recent upgrades to the property.

    Quiet atmosphere: Several campgrounds maintain peaceful environments despite being relatively close to urban areas. A visitor at Sun Outdoors Gig Harbor mentioned, "The spaces are very close together, but there are a lot of trees and it's very well kept. I stayed for almost three weeks and it was quiet and relaxing, despite how close together the sites are."

    What you should know

    Cell service considerations: While not mentioned in other descriptions, cell coverage can vary significantly at campgrounds in the area. At Tall Chief Campground, one camper advised: "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 to make sure you have good reception if you need it."

    Reservation policies: Some RV parks have specific requirements for longer stays. A visitor at Washington Land Yacht Harbor reported, "We called a month ahead and reserved a space for our 5th wheel for a month... we get there and were told, they don't have any month to month sites, we would have to rent week to week for $100 a month more."

    Power limitations: Electrical capacity can be an issue during peak usage periods. One Tall Chief Campground reviewer explained their experience: "We ended up here during a heat wave and an entire section of the park blew after having several days of power issues (one of which was our site)."

    Tips for camping with families

    Limited child-specific amenities: When selecting an RV park near Lakebay for family camping, note that some locations have few child-oriented facilities. A Sun Outdoors Gig Harbor visitor pointed out, "Pet friendly, but not many attractions for children (no playground, no pool)."

    Spacious options: Rest-A-While RV Park provides waterfront access but limited children's facilities. According to a reviewer, "Oceanside view stay, beautiful scenery, calm waters which is perfect for paddle boarding. No playground for kids. Full hookup."

    Alternative activities: Consider campgrounds with recreational options beyond traditional playgrounds. A Tall Chief Campground visitor mentioned, "We love Tall Chief because it is super close to a lot of great spots around the Seattle region," highlighting the importance of nearby attractions for family outings.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection strategy: For RV camping near Lakebay, Washington, selecting the right site can impact your experience.

Close to the airport if you need to leave your RV for a bit and fly out."

    Utility extensions: Come prepared with extra cords and hoses. A camper staying long-term noted, "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."

    Site spacing awareness: Many RV parks in this region feature sites closer together than some travelers might expect. A visitor observed, "Nice spot, tight next to neighbors, laundry, guests must check in at desk. Beautiful area."
