Best RV Parks & Resorts near Preston, WA

Multiple RV campgrounds serve the Preston area, including Tall Chief Campground in Fall City with water and electric hookups, large wooded sites, and year-round accessibility. Blue Sky RV Park near Issaquah provides full hookups with sewer connections while Trailer Inns RV Park in Bellevue offers 100 sites with 50-amp service. Most locations accommodate larger motorhomes and fifth wheels, with Tall Chief featuring spacious pull-through sites surrounded by tall trees. "You really do feel like you're much further out of town. Only drawback is not having dump hookups at each site, but that doesn't effect me wanting to stay here in any way," noted one Tall Chief visitor.

Many parks fill quickly during summer months, making advance reservations essential. Cell service varies significantly between locations, with several Tall Chief campers reporting good reception in some sites but poor coverage in others due to dense tree cover. Dump stations are available on-site at Tall Chief, though some visitors opt for honey wagon service at approximately $60 per visit. Between Issaquah and Fall City, most parks welcome pets but enforce standard leash policies. According to one camper at Blue Sky RV Park, "The facilities are great and very clean, the park very quiet. There are a lot of big rigs parked there, some of them long-term as it seems."

    Crystal Mountain RV Parking

    Great base-camp for winter and summer adventures at Crystal Mountain Resort

    Stayed here for the first time in July 2021.  I understand this opened last winter.  Talking to the host, I found out it is far more popular in winter when ski season is open. It was quiet and sparsely filled in July on a Friday and Saturday night.

    3 different areas respectively for large RV and 50 amps power, small RVs and 30 amp and tent only area. A fee picnic tables (no benches) available toward the tent only area.  Bathroom are just two sani-cans. Relatively clean.  There is trash and recycling behind the office which is adjacent to the host RV.

    Free WI-Fi (the host will give you code) and good LTE connection on AT&T.

    Silver Creek runs behind the lot and gives a  bit more of a natural feel. Otherwise you are in a giant parking lot (Lot B).  

    Can't beat the location for skiing and hiking or biking at Crystal Mountain!

    North Sound Recreational Vehicle Park

    Simple Urban RV Park

    This is very much an RV park and not really a campground. Seems like a clean little park, but right in the middle of Lynnwood, so if you are looking for a rural setting this isn't for you. 

    They offer weekly and monthly rentals, so this is more of a long-term sort of place. 

    Website: Northsound RV Park

    ​Requirements from their site: 

    • Your travel trailer must be year 2005 or newer 
    • Pet friendly(limit 2) not to exceed 25 lbs. Aggressive breed restrictions apply. 
    • No conversion vehicles - sorry van and bus life people 
    • No trailers larger than 35' long, ideally.

    Kayak Point County Park

    Small woodsy campground with beach access

    All campsites are surrounded by trees so choose carefully if you need a pull through or if you have a large rig that you’re trying to back up. We had a small camper van and it fit perfectly. Campsite is on a bluff above the beach, but you can’t see the sunset from the campground you would have to go down to the beach. Bathroom/shower is typical for a state or county campground - functional, but zero elegance. This one is a county campground and state or federal passes do not apply. Water and 30 amp electric at all sites except one tent site. Douglas squirrels are common and shy. Pets are welcome on leash.

    Blue Sky RV Park

    Awesome park

    We reserved a space for 1 night the day before. Great communication with Brett, everything went really smooth. The facilities are great and very clean, the park very quiet. There are a lot of big rigs parked there, some of the pm long-term as it seems. We enjoyed ourselves and would definitely visit again.

    Cedar Glen RV Park

    great long-term or quick on the way

    There are several long term campers here. The grounds are kept immaculate and they regularly update the sites.  They hang wreaths for the winter holidays. Lawns mowed weekly. 

    All are level gravel. All have grass area, some with patio pad. There is a dog walk area and they are currently creating a dog fenced area at the end orf the two rows. 

    A caretaker is on site and will often help guide rigs into the sites (all are back-in). 

    Close to Poulsbo (a cute, Norwegian heritage town), Seattle ferry via Bainbridge Island and just over an hour to the Olympic National Park via the Hood Canal Bridge.

    Military Park Jim Creek Naval Radio Station Jim Creek Wilderness Recreation Area

    So much to do!

    It had been 15 years at least since I'd been to Jim Creek. Since then, they've done some nice upgrades. The rv pads are double wide concrete pads about 50 feet long with full hook-ups. All sites include a fire pit, picnic table, and grill with ash bucket and grill cleaning brush. The rv park is close to the recreation office that has a little gift shop with snacks and drinks. This is also where you can rent equipment such as bikes, fishing poles, boats, etc. They also have a movie theater upstairs that operates on Saturday. This building has a 24 hour lounge with free wifi, TV, dvds, books, markers, coloring books, games, and other things for visitors to use. The wifi was only supposed to work inside the building, but I could pick it up in my campsite once or twice during our stay. Verizon cell service is very spotty. When I did pick it up, I only had one bar. There are several hiking trails and you can drive about 5 miles back to Twin Lakes to fish or just take a rented boat out or just enjoy the view. Jim Creek is a Naval Radio station and is for active duty military, retired, DoD, and reserves. There is a gate and you must show id to get in. Because of this and the base police roll through once or twice a day, I felt very safe compared to a state park or even a private campground. We camped Tuesday-Friday and even when it started filling up in Thursday, it was still super quiet at night. Quiet like not even bug sounds. That was wonderful.

    Riverbend Campground

    Nice campground with friendly staff

    Interesting the other review was for a first time out with their travel trailer!  Same for us!

    We got site 106 which was the furthest one out, it was right along the river.  The site has a concrete slab and fit our Jayco 174BH perfectly.  

    This site does is a back in, but the slab is at a 90 degree angle from the drive.  So you will have to back your trailer around a corner if you plan to park it on the slab.  Didn't see other sites like this.  

    The campground did have a very small selection of items to buy, but mainly snacks.  They do fill propane tanks, but only during week days.

    The site had water and electrical, but no sewer connections.  they do have a nice dump station.

    The camp ground itself did have at least 2 pet areas neither are fenced so a leash is required, along with a playground for the kids.

    We have Verizon and had no issues with cell signal at this campground.

    Also, this is a private campground, so they have a guy that stands at the gate to open it when guests come arrive.

    Indian Camp Campground

    Free range cows

    Camp here for free for 7 days with a discover pass! 2 pit toilets, fire ring and picnic table at each site. Big areas for RVs, horse trailers and group sites. No water hook ups or dump stations. River access and lots of trails for nature walks. Very beautiful area! I had phone service and I use Sprint.

    Kanaskat-Palmer State Park

    Nice & quick camping option from Seattle

    We stayed 1 night here for the maiden voyage of our recently purchased travel trailer, which was nice since it's only about an hour away from our place near Seattle. Arrived Friday early evening and it wasn't busy at all.

    The check-in process was easy, even though their reservation system was down at the time. Filled up w/ some fresh water at the dump station, which was clean and well maintained.

    Campsites in the RV loop were spaced out enough with vegetation between them so as to provide some privacy. Our site had a pull-through driveway, 30amp hookup, a fire ring and picnic table. Bathrooms in that loop were pretty nice... heated and very clean.

    Took a walk down to the day use area by the river, which was easy for us, but some portions of the trails closer to the river were slightly overgrown w/ a few obstacles, which could be problematic for some. Didn't see any kids play structures down there, which would be nice to have for families.

    We heard a couple trains while there, but the noise wasn't too loud. Never heard the fire siren that they warned us about. Overall, it was a good camping experience for a quick trip and would return!


Guide to Preston

RV camping options near Preston, Washington include several well-maintained parks within a 30-minute drive. Most campgrounds in this region sit at elevations between 500-1,000 feet with mild summer temperatures averaging 75-80°F. Winter camping remains available at several year-round facilities, though nighttime temperatures frequently drop below freezing from November through February.

What to do

Hiking nearby trails: Thousand Trails Thunderbird offers access to riverside hiking with views of fly fishing. "Scenic country road beware of traffic going twice the limit (35 mph) friendly staff very helpfull," notes one camper about the area surrounding the park.

Lake activities: Waterfront recreation at Lake Pleasant RV Park includes a pond with resident wildlife. "We did not use the bathrooms, but enjoyed the walking trails, playground for the kids, and watching the resident ducks in the pond," explains one visitor who found the park convenient despite being just 30 minutes from downtown Seattle.

Mini golf and swimming: Some parks offer recreational facilities on-site. "Plenty of amenities - showers, pools, hot tub, mini golf etc. staff were friendly as well," reports a visitor at Thousand Trails Thunderbird, highlighting entertainment options available without leaving the campground.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Gig Harbor RV Resort maintains well-kept grounds and amenities. "Clean, friendly staff, lots of trees. All types of site- large, small, full hook ups (30&50) to rustic, small tent area. Water pressure challenges on hill, WiFi ok/slow," explains a visitor who appreciated the overall maintenance despite minor infrastructure limitations.

Wooded privacy: Many campers value the natural surroundings at Blue Sky RV Park. "This is a great RV resort. The picture on the app is not at all what this place looks like. A Quiet oasis tucked into the forest," shares one reviewer who found the actual experience better than expected.

Convenient locations: RV parks in this region balance nature with access to urban amenities. "This RV park is not ideal if you have dogs. There is not much grass, in fact you have to go outside the park and across the street to hear compliant pet owner," notes a visitor at Issaquah Village RV Park, highlighting both limitations and location benefits.

What you should know

Limited tent camping options: Most parks cater primarily to RVs. "Tenting areas are 10-15 feet from the road, so very noisy all night long. The road is 35mph, so it's noisy," warns a camper at Thunderbird RV Resort who noted that "I was fortunate enough to get the only flat tent space - all other tent sites are on a gentle lean."

Long-term vs. short-term stays: Some rv sites near Preston, Washington prioritize longer reservations. "Called and talked to the team at midway today inquiring about guests coming into town. They're a long term only location with 6 months or more as the minimum stay," reports a camper about Midway Village RV Park.

Noise considerations: Location-specific noise factors affect some campgrounds. "You will be camping 200' from I-90. But we found our ear plugs did a good job of quieting that noise enough for us to get a good sleep," explains a visitor at Issaquah Village RV Park who still enjoyed their stay despite highway proximity.
