Great off season campground
Our camp spots were close to the lake. The cedar trees gave great cover from the rain. The trails around camp were well maintained.

Beautiful wooded sites
Beautiful campground with many large shaded sites along Lake Diablo. Absolutely gorgeous. Each site has its.own bear boxes and the bathrooms were pretty clean.

It's a place to stay
Don't have much of a review, we found a spot here last second after signing up to run the Sun Mountain 25k last minute. Barely spent any time at the campground. I know the location was good for being able to just walk into town. The camp spots were just shared space in a grassy area. Nothing spectacular.

We took the opportunity to secure one of the “private” lots. Site S9 comes with a private fenced area, with fire pit, hot tub, seating and fully ready propane Weber. Staff is immediate and attentive. Free WiFi and only 1 hour from the National Park.

Lake and mountains!
General: A variety of different campsites in two sections ranging from economy to basic to popular, with and without hookups, and priced according to peak or non-peak season. There are also three cabins and two group camp areas.
Site Quality: We are happy we were able to book a basic tent site with our campervan (there were more than a few others with RVs in these sites). Parking was on grass and not completely level, but we made it work. Each site had a picnic table and fire ring (although there was a fire ban in effect when we were there). The sites with utilities had paved camper pads.
Bath/Shower house: Clean with soap and air dryers. The showers are free but you are asked to not use more than three button pushes. My shower in the afternoon was completely COLD and I am not sure if it was the time of day, the particular shower, or user error. My husband’s shower got hot midway through.
Activities/Amenities: All things water-based including jet skis, water skiing, kayaking, SUP, and fishing. There is also a boat wash. There are also numerous trails used for hiking, running, and mountain biking. Other activities include volleyball and horseshoes.
Despite my cold shower and the fact that state parks are becoming increasingly pricy (with reservation and out-of-state fees, we paid $ 77 for two nights for a tent site), we enjoyed our stay here.

Convenient spot
Lovely but busy spot in North Cascades NP. We were fortunate with really good weather. You can swim in the lake, there is a boat launch and there is a hiking trail across the street. Super convenient. Thunder knob trail.
Bathrooms were clean. Sites a little close. Lots of people come into the park on the weekends from Seattle though it is the least visited of the three Washington Parks. Lovely scenery, turquoise lake.
You need to be prepared when you arrive. Closest camp store is about 25 minutes with limited supplies, but can get you by.. there are restaurants and gas stations in Marblemount, but that is all from what we could tell.

Great Lake
We stayed at Pearrygin Lake State Park the weekend after Labor Day weekend and got a great spot on the lake. Most of the sites are large with lots of privacy and our site was no different. There was a little trail to our semi private beach and kayak launch. The only thing that would have made the site better would have been some strategic trimming of some shrubs blocking our view of the nearby mountain, lake and evening sunset. The grounds and facilities were clean and park staff were quite friendly.

Beautiful Location
I generally enjoyed this location in North Cascades National Park. It is a beautiful area with hikes nearby and chilly swimming. Mosquitos weren’t bad which was a relief. However, sites at this campground are close together and not very private. It feels a bit like a carnival at times instead of camping in the woods.
We found ourselves in the middle of the Pace family reunion while visiting. Apparently all the adults coordinated and rented sites by each other for this event instead of renting a group site. The adults yelled across our site to each other, their children ran through our site to adjacent ones, and they were up and noisy by 6 AM. We also were treated to dirty looks, I’m guessing because it was their “usual spot”? They said they camped there for over 30 years so they clearly feel like it’s their private park at this point. This certainly impacted our enjoyment, and ability to relax.
In the future, we will consider a site away from the water for more privacy.
Despite the presence of bears, there was also a pretty cavalier attitude to bear safety and adherence to those rules. There were a lot of kids and adults day drinking so they just weren’t as alert as they should be. This can put those around them at greater risk for a bear encounter. A fed bear is a dead bear, so this was frustrating to witness.

Free WiFi, Free Showers, Bathrooms, Water
Currently, there is a 72-hour camping limit and is a city park, which means they don't accept any type of pass or discount such as the Discover Pass. The fee is $10/night (72 hours maximum). But you can still hang out here during the day-use hours until then, if you don't have the money.
I like this area very much. Nothing spectacular, but free showers, free WiFi, bathrooms, water faucet, and water spigot is hard to beat.
You can call them and ask any questions. The number is 509-422-3600

A great spot to spend the night while touring the North Cascades
I really enjoyed my stay here. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I went to make my freeze dried meal and noticed I forgot to pack my camp spork and one of the other campers there helped me out.
I had a "lake front" site, which was really nice but still a good 100 yards from the lake. But I was happy with an unobstructed view.
The other campers were all very nice about not making too much noise after sundown which I really appreciated after a long and hot day riding in the area.
The really neat town of Winthrop is about 5 minutes away. AT&T had good enough cell phone signal for me to be able to facetime with my wife and kids.
Next time I make this trip I plan on staying here again.

parking lot with grass area for tents. Toilets and shower. $10 per night
Great place if you’re just looking for a spot to spend the night or take a shower. The park is sandwiched between a busy city street and the river. Bathrooms are old but clean. Possibly open all night. There are no individual spots it’s just a long parking lot with a grass area for tents.

Went two years in a row on Memorial Day weekend. Crazy busy but 100% worth it if you plan accordingly. Swimming in the lake is an absolute must if after a long day outdoors if you can brave the cold!

Lone Fir Campground
Mountain View’s by Early Winters Creek
We camped here in early October so there was no fee. The vault toilet was clean but there is no maintenance until the late spring.
We camped in space 23 by one of the vault toilets. We had views of the surrounding craggy mountains. Ours was a drive through site and very spacious. We also could only see 2 other campers as there was some nice spacing between us. I just love their huge planked picnic tables made of 4”x12” fir.
There was some highway noise but it quieted down after dark as our campsite was close to the highway. As always, be bear aware and do not leave food out.

Colonial Creek South Campground — Ross Lake National Recreation Area
Stunningly Busy
We were super excited to camp at Colonial Creek. I've read so many reviews saying this is the best place to camp in the N Cascades. I imagine your experience will be different on any given night based on the community camping at the time. But, boy would I ever think twice about camping here on a summer weekend again. It seemed like every site was over capacity with many cars and tents and huge groups of people jammed in everywhere. The result is complete chaos of barking dogs and screaming children and parties going late into the night. On the weekend we were here it seemed like a group of 50 or so folks had rented several sites and would gather to sing & talk lake into the night each night. Because there were SO many people at each site there were often lines at the bathrooms. That said, bathrooms were clean.
We were in site 163 which is huge with a huge tent pad. That said, it is almost a twin site with 162 and tons of traffic. Like, you could almost stand between cars parked in both driveways and touch them. The sites on the lake side of the inner loop (like 157, 159, etc) seemed more private and away from the ruckus.
If you are a rooftop tenter it's probably worth noting that the parking spots for even the drive-up lake-side camp spots are basically in a parking lot/on the road and most of the campsite itself is a bit of a walk to the lake.

Pretty but noisy
Colonial creek south #80 is our favorite site. It's a double site so there's room for a couple of tents, close to water and toilets. The sites close to the water are packed tight, often one on top of another. No privacy. We had screaming kids at all sites around us, so it was hard to relax. Still a great campground. We saw bald eagles, hawks and deer. There were bears sited within the campground, so the rangers were being very vigilant.

Fun Family Time on quiet lake
We always have a great time camping in new places and this little lake and campground were another one we tried: it was very beautiful and we were lucky to have a front spot to have more privacy. Negatives were the right camping spaces and the lake was so murky, swimming and fishing were not activities we got to enjoy. We probably won’t stay here again, tho we did take advantage of the firewood for sale and fire pits!

Awesome car camping spot with waterfront camping
What can I say that others haven't!? Some of the best car camping in the Cascades. The lake is shockingly blue and COLD, but after a sweaty day of hiking is the ultimate in refreshment! Camp sites are close but feel secluded enough. If you walk into the tent sites on the north side of the campground you have some better options if you want to lug all of your gear with you.

North Cascades National Park camping at its finest!
This is by far the nicest campground in North Cascades National Park that one can drive to. If you are lucky to be able to reserve beach side spots on Diablo Lake you will also have lots of privacy and incredible views of this amazing turquoise blue lake and maybe even your own water access/beach. If not, the dock and beach are only a few steps away. Bathrooms are pretty basic, no showers. Cell reception is non-existent. Amazing access to the lake and incredible hikes from your campsite!
