If you enjoy a perfectly spaced concrete pads, paved roads, being close to all the chain restaurants type RV resort, this may not be for you. Otherwise if you enjoy really feeling away from the worlds chaos, being able to sit out with an amazing view and the loudest noise normally being the waves crashing, screeching of eagles and the occasional ship horn bellowing then this is a class A place! We have been all over the country and this is the place we always miss the most. You can stay at WCB in a variety of ways. Bring your own tent and stay on one of the waterside wood platforms. Bring your own RV and stay at either full hook up sites with both 30 and 50 amp available or dry camp. You can rent one of their RVs ranging from an A frame pop up to big motorhomes. There are also waterside cabins, tiny homes and a larger cabin. Really something for every one. AT&T service is decent, bounces between US and Canada towers though so be sure roaming is not an issue for your bill. The owners Tim and Rachel are absolutely great on top of everything else.

We stopped in for a few nights in mid September and this place was amazing. It was a mid week stay at the end of the season, so a very slow time to be there, which maybe made it better. There were minimal campers there and we really enjoyed having extra space and quiet. The canvas cabins were a great solution to either traveling with gear or renting gear locally since we flew into the area. When we arrived we found the cabin with everything we needed including firewood with matches and newspaper for lighting, a s’mores kit, and bed warmers (insulated rubber bags of boiling water). It was September and chilly at night, but the bed warmers worked well and the setup is designed to handle a cold night. Breakfast was included with the stay in the canvas cabins, and was a nice benefit. The food was good, and the staff was friendly. The grounds were clean and beautiful. There was a lot of wildlife on the grounds and fishing available on site. We will return again during future visits to SJI.

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. Our tent also had a bathroom w/ a toilet and shower, an electrIc heater, a trundle bed/couch, and electrical outlets. They currently have 6 of these Nevas tents, 16 canvas tents (w/o water/restrooms/electricity), 6 huge log cabins, 7 yurts (w small kitchens), 37 or so camping sites, 4 RV sites, and an Airstream you can rent. There is also a traditional lodge (not sure how many rooms, but it looked nice). Canvas tents and lodge come w/ breakfast. We will for sure come back!

We have camped here a number of times, usually during the winter months. It has been almost 3 years since we were here and a few changes have been made. You used to be able to snag one of the standard campsites (no hookups) by driving in, selecting one then paying. Now, they all all registration year round.

There is some noise here from the Coupeville-Port Townsend ferry that docks here but it is only every 1.5 hours during the low season. We like to watch the ferries and they don’t make that much noise. But, this is near a major Naval Air Force base in Oak Harbor. Apparently a few new squadrons were brought in a few years ago. For over two hours, we were treated to intermittent but frequent LOUD jets flying close to the ground. We both had headaches and our dogs were upset.

We have a pop up truck camper so, yes, of course, we can hear more noise. We do not have a TV so can’t drown it out. I am just hoping this was where they fly Wednesday. If you have a larger solid RV, you may not experience that loud dull roar. At least they don’t break the sound barrier.

We paid $20 for site 6. This is a standard site, meaning no hookups. Full hook up sites are available for more. There are flush toilets and potable water. The only faucet operating currently is the pump spigot as others were shut off due to frost. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table. The sites are level with gravel surface. There is a grassy area for tents and to play games. There is no privacy but there are beaches to walk on and views of several Cascades peaks and the Olympic Range. This is a good spot to camp awaiting the ferry for the next day or you could walk on to explore Port Townsend which has a historical town center.

Despite the poor weather, I couldn't have been happier with my Whiskey Creek Beach camping experience. From the views, adequately spaced tent sites, steel fire pits, potable water, picnics table, Adirondack chairs and shower access, this was a perfect getaway for this solo, 50-something, female camper, accompanied only by her chow-chow . I was able to finally fulfill my dream of camping along the shore. 

One of the amazing features for those camping at the shorefront sites (T9, T10, T12) are the elevated, 12×14 decks that serve as your tent pad; No need to worry about a tarp placement beneath the tent. Metal cleets are placed around the deck stucture that you can use as tie downs for your tent and fly. These were useful for my additional tarp as I had to contend with mostly adverse weather conditions.The hosts have also provided, for your convenience, additional tie downs in case of high winds. Side Note: with the set up I created, I never once, had to contend with tent leakage, from the top or bottom. 

There is a small, single shower hut apx. 30 yards from the tent site. It is an off the grid shower, but extremely clean, and has running hot water. The cost was $5.00 for unlimited use. The outhouse for the sites, next to the shower hut, is rather old, and was, in my opinion, the only drawback. There is, however, a newer flush toilet up a small hill near the site which I found myself gravitating to. 

The hosts were extremely helpful and responsive. The area has a secure access gate. Firewood is available for sale at a cost of $4.99. The small town of Joyce is but a 10 minute drive where you will find an extremely well stocked old timey general store, two quaint resturaunts, and a laundromat, a huge bonus as I was on an extended stay of seven days.

For those inclined to explore the region, you are well within driving distance to some of Washington's exceptiinally breathtaking hikes, including Hurricane Ridge, The Ozette Triangle, and Cape Flattery.

Only 88 miles away from our home, a perfect getaway for a short trip. We are fairly new to the RV life style (always tent camped) and this only our 3rd trip in our new travel trailer. We choose to dry camp this trip because we wanted to learn more about how our travel trailer performed without hook ups. We stayed in site #8.

This is a fairly small campground and very popular. Reservations are almost a necessity for weekends, holidays and summer months. Amazing scenery and lots of history with the Fort only a small hike away. Also a beautiful lighthouse with tours on specific days and a small gift shop. The small towns of Coupeville and Langley are just a short drive away and have lots to offer for a day of window browsing and exploring. Or, walk on the ferry and explore historic Port Townsend just a 30 minute ferry ride away and your gateway to the Olympics. Calen's restaurant is just a short walk away and a plate of locally harvested Penns Cove mussels is a must. If you like riding your road bike, bring it. Great rides along the waterfront with very little traffic. Each site has a picnic table and a fire pit (wood is available from camp host) and bathroom and showers spotless.
