Best RV Parks & Resorts near Oak Harbor, WA

This is the very first park I took my motorhome to.  After spending a year getting the rig ready, I was finally ready to take it on the road.  I had joined Thousand Trails earlier in the year and set off to see what I knew.  While I had previous RVs before (5th Wheel, Class C's, Travel trailers) this was my trip in a Class A.

My first visit to the Thousand Trails La Conner site was great.  I was able to find a nice full hook up site at the edge of the park very close to the water.

A couple more visits to the park in the following months gave a less than great experience but still good.

Last week turned a corner.  While the staff is still five star level, the park is showing a lot of wear and tear.  I counted more than a dozen closed sites.  Some of these sites had been closed for a long time.  Potholes and ruts in the road made travel unpleasant but the pools of water (and mud) really stood out.

Granted, I was there in February but these issues were not just seasonal.  Some of the same sites had been closed for the past few visits to the park.  

I hope they start to pay attention to this park because its location is great.

Nice place, friendly staff best Thousand Trails so far. They have all the usual amenities for resort. 2 phases for RVs - phase 1 spots are so close you could very well “spare a square” of TP to your neighbor. Phase 2 has a lot more room to spread out and it’s nice. But the most surprising was the very nice bathrooms! Definitely would stay here again.

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.

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.

A very small RV resort but very clean, helpful management on site but closely parked together. Full 50amp hookup. Close to Olympic National Park (Go early).

Great campground this was hands down one of our favorite thousand trails in Washington you will enjoy this campground Great location great campground would go back

I love thousand trails, we decided last minute to get out of the house and away for the weekend and spend some time outdoors. We didn’t spend a lot of time packing diligently for camping, but anything we forgot we didn’t notice. Thousand trails has everything that we may have left behind, very convenient to pick up from on-site store. There were plenty of outdoor activities to keep the dogs and kiddos entertained. Will definitely be going back soon before the weather gets cold.

We spent 4 nights here as a jumping-off point to explore Whidbey Island and a day trip to visit Orcas Island. We were leery of bringing our trailer onto the ferry for the first time, so we took the driving route via Deception Pass. The location is fantastic for access To Oak Harbor, Anacortes and Deception Pass State Park. We spent the weekend here with my sister and her family who rented one of the cabins at the RV Park.

The cabin was very simple, clean and had a well-stocked kitchen. They enjoyed their stay and it was a convenient way for all of us to spend more time together. We were in RV spot C-22 and it was quite a tight and unlevel location. The pavement on the grounds is not in great condition with lots of bumps and ditches, but we were able to finagle our trailer to a stable spot. Your neighbors are very close but the grounds are very quiet. The staff is immensely helpful and friendly. Our water spigot was leaking badly when we arrived and they had repaired it by the next morning.

The grounds aren’t ideal but the location to exploring Whidbey is well worth it. You are steps from the entry of Deception Pass State Park to find tons of hiking but if you venture right (directionally) out of the driveway from the RV Park, you’ll find the Cornet Bay side of the state park that offers quieter, lesser crowded trails and a different view of the bridge. I spent my evenings running through this side of the park and it was lovely with lots of wildlife and nearly complete solitude. Also, make sure you get to Greenbank Farms for some local cheeses and Whidbey Pies because nothing says post-hike refuel like Loganberry pie.

A new and clean RV resort about 1 hour from Seattle.

Big shower spaces for free.

Coffee and cafe on side.

Gas stations and McDonalds next to the resort 1 mile from town of Sultan

This is a Thousand Trails facility. Lots of spaces but not many with sewer. It’s first come and you pick a empty spot. If you can find one. Only a few have water views. I forgot a couple of things so was really happy the store was open. I saw the hot tub and mini golf. There was a large open grassy area to play . Everyone was pretty nice.

We enjoyed our stay. Our nephews came to visit and enjoyed the pool and small nature trails around camp. There is a lot to do around town all within biking distance. We paddle boarding in the bays!! Great blues bands in town. Only problem I had was having to pay $10.00 for our guests just to park their cars by our campsite!! We are THOUSAND TRAILS ADVENTURES!!! NOT OK

This is my first time using a thousand trails membership so I didn’t know what to expect. The overall campground is nice with almost all of the sites being surrounded by trees or a view of the bay. But it was disappointing to find that the few sites that have a sewer connection were all taken and no way to know this in advance. The Wi-Fi they have is only at the recreation building so that amenity should not have been listed on their website.  About 20% of the campsites were being occupied by people who seem to be living there year-round with questionable RVs and lots of junk around their site. This diminished the overall nice setting of the campground.

This small campsite is worth a visit. Breath taking view of the ocean and just minutes to the ferry. Book early if you need or want full hook up as there are limited sites with full hook up available.

Fantastic spot to stay or pass through to fill up/empty. They have water, propane, and a dump. They also have great long-term rates.
