Birch Bay State Park Campground and Lakedale Resort provide luxury outdoor stays amid Washington's natural beauty. These sites feature full-service glamping accommodations with modern amenities while maintaining a connection to nature. Birch Bay combines forest settings with beachfront access, while Lakedale Resort on San Juan Island offers a more secluded glamping experience. "I love that there is access to the beach from the whole park. It's nestled into some old growth forest and really peaceful," noted one visitor about Birch Bay. Glamping options include canvas tents with real beds, furnished yurts with electricity, and climate-controlled accommodations. Both locations provide comfortable bedding, private decks, and easy access to restroom facilities. Some units feature kitchenettes, heating elements, and outdoor seating areas perfect for taking in sunset views over the water.
The natural surroundings of these glamping resorts create opportunities for varied outdoor experiences. At Birch Bay, guests enjoy direct beach access for clamming, crabbing, and kayaking, with several reviewers mentioning the incredible sunsets. Moran State Park and West Beach Resort offer additional yurt rental options on nearby Orcas Island with water activities and hiking trails. One camper shared, "Top 5 favorite! Forest and beach. Great campsites, quiet and just beautiful. Tons of day use sites, great park and playground, lots of beach." The San Juan Islands locations like Lakedale Resort provide more secluded experiences with glamping accommodations near freshwater lakes. Most glamping sites in the region operate seasonally with peak availability from May through September, though some offer year-round bookings. Wildlife viewing, stargazing, and waterfront activities complement the upscale outdoor lodging experience.
"We set up camp and had our dinner on the beach to watch an incredible sunset! our drive-up site was great, well maintained with bathrooms nearby.
Wish we could’ve stayed longer!"
"The lots are pretty close together but it has everything you need--large picnic table, fire pit with grill, parking, and a good area for your tent."
from $12 - $113 / night
Check Availability"Lets start with the downsides: reserve early as it fills up quick for summer, during the summer there are burn bans and you will need a propane fire pit or no fire at all, the jet noise can be overwhelming"
"Overall the campgrounds are well maintained and the bathrooms were always well stocked. It is a popular campground for families, with kiddos riding bikes and running around."
from $12 - $144 / night
Check Availability"Each site comes with a nice canvas tent, queen size bed, dresser, big chairs to sit by the firepit with basic amenities - coffee - water etc provided."
"I like site 17 because we had a neighbor on one side of us but a lake and hilly woods area on the other side so it felt more private."
from $12 - $23 / night
Check Availability"Luxury of having power and a bed. Definitely not a nature getaway. The pool and amenities are great though."
"Lynden KOA was the perfect nearby campground. Tent sites in the back are rather dusty (no grass)… but then again we’re camping so who cares. Grassy sites are around the pond and book up quickly."
from $60 - $120 / night
Check Availability"Water and 30 amp electric. Clean bathrooms and showers. Cute café and the best sunset on the island."
"What a Beautiful place this Location has to offer!!! Stunning views ! Beautiful beach! Amazing sunsets! Campground has really nice clean traditional camp sites! Plenty of sites!"
"The vault toilet was clean and there was a composting area close to that. The campsites were large; we were able to fit 8 tents in two sites, and took over a third site for cooking and eating."
"The best part of camping on Stuart Island is the walk up to the Turn Point Lighthouse. Along the way you can visit a small museum, the island's library, and an old one room schoolhouse."
from $12 / night
Check Availability"Great set up for a small park with small sites. There are trees between every camp spot to add privacy. Best part is that the restrooms are clean and the showers are free."
"Everyone’s so nice, good dog park, pool, and friendly staff. Little mini mart on site."
"The canvas cabins were a great solution to either traveling with gear or renting gear locally since we flew into the area."
"We had Nevas Canvas Tent #6. It was amazing! Glamping at its finest! King size bed was super comfy. We had a huge deck overlooking one of the three lakes."
"Camp host was very welcoming and helpful. There is a great grocery store in the village. That was important because midweek in the offseason, not many restaurants were open."
"There are plenty of beach sites, a few are “walk-in” – which just means that you can’t park your car there. There are lots of forested sites which offer more privacy than the beach."
ScoutBeautiful spot on Orcas Island. Do be aware there is a ferry ride and you need a reservation and it can be expensive depending on the size of your rig. Water and 30 amp electric. Clean bathrooms and showers. Cute café and the best sunset on the island.
GuideI had the great fortune of being here off season, and there were very few fellow campers. Many campsites are right on the water and there is a great mix of car camping and walk-in sites. There is a group site, and some short hiking trails. The beauty is the beach and water and the amazing night sky. The pit toilets are clean and it is a laid back place. During the busy season the beach sites would be tight. Very few van/trailer sites so pay attention to the website because it has everything g you need to know.
ScoutThe Navy carrier jets train out here, for hours on end, you can’t hear someone next to you speak when they’re overhead, and it’s one after another. To top it off, some dipsh@t did the grand finale flight of the evening, around 11:30 PM, so low over the campground they lit up the inside of the tent.
Without the jets, this would be a great spot. Beautiful scenery, plenty of trails and beaches, well kept, but the constant interruption of any moment of peace makes it worthless unless you’re deaf and don’t mind the ground vibrating routinely when they fly over.
LegendDeception Pass State Park is an incredible place to camp. The scenery and hikes have a wow factor. We enjoy the smaller Quarry Pond side. Great facilities. Wonderful campground.
GuideThe sites were large, the bathrooms nice, even in the middle of summer it was pretty quiet considering how many people were camping there. Day use is on the shore and easy to access and town is just a walk or bike ride away! The sunset view was incredible from the day use area.
GuideThis is a busy campground and day use area, but it’s awesome. You can kayak and swim in cranberry lake, watch the sunset from either north beach or west beach, and hike many different trails all from the campground.
RangerHIGHLY recommend site 33 as it is secluded! Once in the site, I could not really see my neighbors. And this site was huge! I was in the Forest loop, which was lovely. Probably not for big trailers like 5th wheels or longer bumper pulls as the road through is very narrow and campsites are between big trees. It was perfect for my little 18 foot teardrop though. No playground. Good cell service. Here's the thing though, this is pretty much right next to NAS Whidbey so if jet noise bothers you, don't camp here. They were not doing night ops while we were there, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
TravelerBeautiful location and lots of services available on site and strong WiFi through the grounds. Camp for two days here on the weekend.
LegendGeneral: 166-site state park in two loops– north and south. Sites are: basic (no hookups), partial hookups, and FHU. Most are back-in, but some are pull-through. Prices depend on the season and perceived popularity of the site. For some reason, the North Loop had much higher occupancy than the South Loop.
Site quality: All sites are level and gravel. Each site includes a fire ring and large wood picnic table. Reasonable separation/privacy between sites.
Bath/Shower: Clean. Showers are nice.
Activities/Amenities: Each loop has a short, paved, and steep path to the beach, where there is a playground and plenty of picnic tables. The South Loop also has a basketball court and wildlife theatre. There are a couple of hiking trails leading from the campground, including a 10.7-mile hike to the International Peace Arch, if you are ambitious. Firewood is available for$8, US cash only, and the host will deliver it to you.
This was a nice state park, and we enjoyed our short time there.
Camping options around Point Roberts extend throughout the northwestern Washington region with sites spread across the San Juan Islands and mainland locations. The area's marine climate brings mild, relatively dry summers with temperatures typically ranging 65-75°F between June and September. Travelers should note that many campgrounds in this region require advance reservations during peak season, with some sites booking up to six months in advance.
Beach activities at Birch Bay: The shoreline offers excellent opportunities for shellfish harvesting at low tide. "This has to be one of my all time favorite places for Shell Fishing and Crabbing! Peaceful and not too busy, access to the beach, and group camp sites, makes this a family destination for quiet fun," notes a Birch Bay State Park Campground visitor.
Hiking on Orcas Island: Multiple trail systems provide access to mountain viewpoints and forest walks. A visitor to Southend Campground at Moran State Park shares, "It offers so many different things from miles of hiking trails to swimming holes, cliffs to jump from, fishing, boating spectacular views and so much more!"
Island exploration: Discover historical sites and natural features across the islands. "The best part of camping on Stuart Island is the walk up to the Turn Point Lighthouse. Along the way you can visit a small museum, the island's library, and an old one room schoolhouse," explains a camper at Stuart Island Marine State Park.
Private waterfront access: Many sites offer direct beach or lake frontage. "The South End campsite, known for its spectacular views and proximity to the water, offered a perfect base for our outdoor retreat. Each site had enough room for our camping gear and offered a personal slice of the park's stunning natural scenery," reports a visitor to Moran State Park.
Wildlife viewing opportunities: The region hosts diverse marine and land animals. At Deception Pass State Park, a camper noted, "Saw several deer while here too. Lots of wildlife... 2 harbor seals stayed in the harbor the whole weekend. Saw several bald eagles. Saw a river otter and several raccoons."
Quiet natural settings: Despite popularity, many campgrounds maintain a peaceful atmosphere. One Deception Pass State Park Campground visitor describes, "Park is remarkably pretty with older trees. Most of RV sites looked great & we loved ours. Read reviews that complain about low flying jets causing a racket. Happy to say we only encountered a couple jet making racket so our stay was relatively quiet."
Ferry logistics: Island camping requires planning around ferry schedules. A camper at Southend Campground warns, "Do remember before booking a site that there is an hour long ferry ride to Orcas from Anacortes. You will need reservations in the summer. The campground is about 40 minutes drive time from the ferry."
Limited services: Many island campgrounds have minimal facilities. "We headed to here from Friday Harbor at the San Juan County launch. They have pit toilets and potable water," explains a Stuart Island Marine State Park visitor.
Wildlife precautions: Food storage is essential at island sites. "You need to store your food bins well due to aggressive racoons (we wedged ours under the picnic table benches)," advises a Stuart Island Marine State Park camper.
Water recreation options: Several campgrounds offer equipment rentals for kids. A visitor to Lakedale Resort shares, "Our 4 year old daughter really enjoyed the activities that were offered, we made family matching tie dies, she made bird feeders, we rented a paddle boat one day and a row boat a different day."
Kid-friendly amenities: Some resorts have additional facilities beyond standard camping. "Since this is a resort, it's a great place for families with kids. Our boys took advantage of the games - tether ball, chess, horse shoes, etc. If you want to make full use of the resort, plan to stay 2+ nights," notes a Lakedale Resort camper.
Swimming areas: Many campgrounds feature designated swimming zones. "Swimming in Cascade Lake was undoubtedly a bonus that enhanced our camping experience. The lake's water was crystal clear, making it inviting at any time of the day," reports a Moran State Park visitor.
Site selection considerations: Some campgrounds have challenging access for larger rigs. A visitor to West Beach Resort advises, "You should be aware that for many of the sites, the hookups are on the 'wrong' side, necessitating driving your RV in rather than backing in. This makes it challenging when it comes time to unhook and then re-hook when leaving the site, especially for larger rigs."
Road conditions: Island roads may present challenges for RVs. "Road through campsites are a little tight, but we fit!! Dump station at the front of the park," notes a Birch Bay State Park visitor with a 30-foot travel trailer.
Limited dump facilities: Plan for waste management limitations. West Beach Resort campers point out, "The other challenge is that there is no dump station or sewer hookups. This was not an issue for us in our camper van but people in RVs should be aware of this."
