Lake Pleasant RV Park accommodates pets with hedged sites offering privacy between camping spots. Located in Bothell, the park features a pond with resident ducks and geese, paved and level areas for RVs, and walking trails around the property. Full hookups include water, sewer, and electric connections. The park maintains clean facilities and allows dogs with some restrictions. Kitsap Memorial State Park Campground also permits pets and offers multiple accommodation options including tent sites, RV spaces, cabins, and glamping units. The park grounds are quiet and peaceful despite being only 30 minutes from Seattle.
North Sound Recreational Vehicle Park enforces specific pet policies including a two-pet maximum with each pet not exceeding 25 pounds, and restrictions on aggressive breeds. The park provides trash collection and maintains a clean, safe environment in a residential setting. Woodlands at Lake Stickney offers more secluded tent camping with nearby water access. Most parks require dogs to be leashed when outside vehicles or designated exercise areas. Several campgrounds feature short hiking paths surrounding the parks where dogs can explore with their owners. Nearby grocery stores and propane services at some locations provide convenience for campers with pets needing supplies during their stay.
"This is the nicest park with the best rates close to the Seattle area. It’s north of Lake Washington so you can skip bridge traffic and tolls. It has easy access to UW Bothell."
"Each site has a few trees to give privacy and a fantastic walking trail for dogs. It’s very clean and welcoming."
from $62 - $750 / night

from $12 - $250 / night
Check Availability"The campground is next to a classy laundromat, and I say classy because it’s probably one of the nicest laundromats in the area that even has a dumpsite for RVs."
"The campground is in 500+ acre Tolt-McDonald Park, far enough away from any busy road so that there is no traffic noise, just the sound of the Tolt River rapids."

- Your travel trailer must be year 2005 or newer

"I looked at all the RV/Trailer Parks close to Seattle. They were either over priced money traps, or crammed in so tight that there was no room to turn yourself around.
"

"Very close to several Walmarts and grocery stores."

"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."
"A great clean safe place in the city and surrounded by trees and nature"
LegendReally 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!
GuideThere 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.
ScoutGood 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.
ScoutThis rv resort was way better than we were expecting, as a last minute add on. Massive dog park, indoor pool and fire areas, putt putt, pickleball, nature walking trails, kids outdoor play area, sun deck, and I’m sure there is more we haven’t gotten to see! Big spacious spots. About 25 mins from skagit speedway. Hope to come stay here again in the future!
ScoutVery friendly and helpful camp hosts. Big dog park, clean bathroom & showers. Paved. Some sites are narrow and shady but overall a very nice park.
LegendWonderful 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.
RangerGreat 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!
TravelerI’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.
ScoutAffordable 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.
Mountlake Terrace sits at an elevation of about 450 feet in Washington's Puget Sound region, with camping options scattered throughout the surrounding forest and lakeside areas. The area experiences mild temperatures most of the year, though winter nights can drop into the 30s. Campers typically find denser crowds during summer weekends when temperatures remain comfortable in the 70s.
Beach exploration: 30 minutes away at Fay Bainbridge Park offers shoreline activities with mountain views. "Beautiful beach, great views of Mt. Rainier & Baker on a clear day, cruise ships going by, pirate ship playground for children," reports one camper.
Wildlife viewing: Early mornings provide the best opportunities for spotting local wildlife. "Every night, my husband and I would walk to the wildlife viewing platform to see lots of birds, or walk down by the river and see lots of elk and bald eagles," notes a visitor at Dosewallips State Park Campground.
Short hiking trails: Several parks offer walking paths around their properties. "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," mentions one camper about Lake Pleasant RV Park.
Privacy between sites: Hedges and landscaping create separation at many locations. "Great privacy hedges between spots. The areas were paved and level. A great place to walk around and enjoy during your stay," shares a camper from Lake Pleasant.
Seasonal rental flexibility at Tolt MacDonald Park accommodates various camping preferences. "They offer the typical primitive campsites with fire pits and picnic tables, as well as yurts and shipping container conversions for those who want more of a 'GLAMping' outdoor experience."
Water access: Multiple parks provide shoreline or water features. "This campground is right next to a state park. It's also very close to a river and lots of woods," notes a visitor at Dosewallips State Park Campground.
Varying shower facilities: Availability differs between parks. "Pay Showers ($.50 token) are in central Restrooms. Only 1 shower per Restroom," explains a visitor at Dosewallips State Park Campground.
Site density considerations: Some parks offer more space than others. "The campsite backed up on the river, so we were able to wade in it and put out some chairs and sit on the beach. There is a little bit of road noise, and a lot of the sites have no privacy," reports another Dosewallips visitor.
Laundry costs vary: When available, laundry facilities typically charge modest fees. At Lake Pleasant RV Park, "The laundry machines ($2 washer/$2 dryer) get the job done, with no need to keep feeding the machine."
Playgrounds for children: Several parks offer play structures. At Flowing Lake Park & Campground, visitors note the "amazing playground. Playground is awesome for little kids. Amazing play structure."
Consider seasonal timing: Fall offers unique experiences with fewer crowds. "Fall camping here is beautiful," shares a Flowing Lake visitor. "Great county operated campground campsites are spacious and private. Reserve ahead very popular especially during the summer."
Cabin options for easier family stays: For those seeking more comfort with kids. "We typically visit the cabins here in the winter, so we don't usually partake in the summer activities of swimming, boating, etc., but we do love coming here in the winter. The cabins are heated and have bunk beds."
RV site selection: Choose carefully based on your specific needs. At Kitsap Memorial, "RV sites 1, 2, 4, 9, and 11 will be easier to back in to. The other full hook up sites are 90° approaches."
Pet policies for RVs vary significantly across parks. At North Sound Recreational Vehicle Park, "Your travel trailer must be year 2005 or newer. Pet friendly(limit 2) not to exceed 25 lbs. Aggressive breed restrictions apply."
Water pressure considerations: Some parks have infrastructure limitations. "Water pressure is low, averaging just over 20psi," reports a camper at Kitsap Memorial State Park Campground.
