    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Tolt MacDonald Park welcomes pets at all tent, RV, yurt, and cabin sites, with most pet-friendly campgrounds in the Redmond area featuring off-leash areas or dedicated pet waste stations. Lake Pleasant RV Park maintains exceptionally clean facilities with privacy hedges between RV spots, making it ideal for camping with dogs. Campers browse The Dyrt when exploring the best sites near Redmond, Washington. Vasa Park Resort offers waterfront access where dogs can enjoy swimming in Lake Sammamish, though pets must remain leashed in common areas. Tall Chief Campground and Fay Bainbridge Park both accommodate pets in their cabin facilities with a maximum of two pets per reservation. Trailer Inns RV Park provides a designated dog run area near the entrance, though the location is primarily suited for those using their RV as a base to explore Seattle rather than for traditional camping experiences.

    The scenic walking trails surrounding Lake Pleasant RV Park offer excellent options for exercising dogs, with many sites positioned around serene ponds frequented by ducks and geese. Most campgrounds enforce standard leash requirements of six feet or less, with designated areas for pet relief. Campers report the dog-friendly trails at Kanaskat-Palmer State Park provide excellent recreational opportunities within 30 minutes of Redmond. During summer months, Vasa Park Resort's lakefront location proves especially popular for camping with dogs who enjoy swimming. Bothell's veterinary clinics remain conveniently accessible from most camping locations, with the closest emergency vet services approximately 15 minutes from Lake Pleasant. Campgrounds typically provide waste stations but expect owners to bring their own waste bags, food dishes, and portable pet enclosures if needed for smaller sites.

      Dash Point State Park Campground

      Dash Point Beach

      Really 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!

      Old Cascades Highway Dispersed

      Hidden gem

      This place is the best free camping in Washington. Coming from the Skykomish direction I believe it’s the turnoff to the right, right before the bridge. The old Cascades Highway road is barely travelled at all and there is rushing river right along the campsite. There is service and other pull offs along the highway if this spot is taken. There’s some large rocks that you have to maneuver around but my Subaru Forester got around it just fine.

      Lake Pleasant RV Park

      Best option near seattle

      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.

      Evergreen Coho SKP Park

      For Escapee members only

      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.

      Issaquah Village RV Park

      Parking lot feels

      This camp ground 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. We also found the electric box to be a little wonky. They office staff did have an adapter which help. It was very quiet and clean just not the most attractive campground.

      Holiday Park Military - Lewis McChord Base

      NW Adventure Center

      Excellent location for those with military access to the base - active duty, retired or family. 30/50 amp hookups. Beautiful views of American Lake. Pet friendly.

      Camp Lakeview

      Great spot

      This campground has super friendly staff, decent bathrooms and showers, laundry facility, access to a lake, fishing is welcome, swimming allowed, great playground for kids, allows pets, has a small store in the office with some essentials if you forget something. It is about a 1 Hour drive to the entrance of Mount Rainier National Park.

      Jim Creek Wilderness Recreation Area

      Spacious sites, great price, lots of activities

      The prices for everything is amazing! The campsites are spacious and run along the creek! There are tent pads that make the ground not so hard under your tent. A table, grill and campfire ring at every site. The cabins are very nice! And are spacious as well. Have a porch swing, campfire ring, table and grill outside. Most cabins have an electric heater and a heat stove inside. The heat stove heats up the entire cabin very well!! They provide trash cans and bags and a broom to help keep the dirt cleaned up!

      The bathrooms are very nice and clean. And they have firewood for sale on site. There is an attendant that will be there after work hours for people who are arriving late to get you checked in and answer questions you have. There are a couple of hiking trails, twin lakes, boats, canoes, and bikes to rent on site. There is also an enclosed dog park on site. There are tent sites, cabins, rv sites and even little apartments to rent for your stay. Great place and only 25 miles from town!

      Harbour Pointe RV Park

      Very Clean!

      We did a daily rental and it was great! Close to the lighthouse park. It is pet friendly and has great picnic spots.


    Guide to Redmond

    Situated between Lake Sammamish and the Cascade Mountain foothills, Redmond offers camping options within 30 miles of Microsoft's headquarters. Most campgrounds near Redmond remain open year-round, though early November through March brings frequent rainfall averaging 5-7 inches monthly. Winter temperatures typically range from 35-45°F, with summer daytime temperatures reaching 75-85°F during peak camping season from June through September.

    What to do

    Suspension bridge exploration: At Tolt MacDonald Park, the 500-foot suspension bridge connects the main camping area to additional hiking trails and remote camping spots. "The suspension bridge is pretty cool, but hold onto your phones tight because it could slip through the holes into the river below," notes Mercedes D. from Tolt MacDonald Park.

    Waterfront activities: Lake Pleasant RV Park offers walking trails surrounding several small ponds 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," shares Nikki R. who visited Lake Pleasant RV Park.

    Seasonal salmon fishing: The Snoqualmie River near Thunderbird RV provides seasonal steelhead and salmon fishing opportunities. "Great place. Riverside no sewer hookups but have dump station by where you check in. Perfect to check in dump if you stay on river side," explains Tracy P. who stayed at Thunderbird RV.

    What campers like

    Private campsites: Dash Point State Park features unusually spacious sites compared to other urban campgrounds. "This campground is remarkable in the privacy between each of the camping spots, the bird life, the wild and deep forest vibes, and the walking trails," mentions Brittany D. from Dash Point State Park.

    Clean facilities: Consistent maintenance makes Tall Chief Campground popular with return visitors. "Bathrooms are usually found to be immaculate. The main bathrooms have a great 'spa' feeling to their design and make you feel like you are glamping," reports Brodie D. who frequents Tall Chief Campground.

    Waterfront access: Vasa Park Resort provides direct lake access for swimming and water activities. "We loved the Vasa Park Resort. We stayed here while visiting my brother in Seattle and had so much fun. We roasted hotdogs and s'mores over the camp fire and our dog loved swimming in the lake," shares Amy H. who visited Vasa Park.

    What you should know

    Cell reception variability: Tree cover affects signal strength at many Redmond-area campgrounds. "Another thing that can be annoying is trying to find a site with good cell reception due to all the trees. They definitely have a few, but I would say arrive early so you can drive by all the sites while checking to make sure you have good reception if you need it," advises Brodie D. about Tall Chief Campground.

    Seasonal crowds: Campgrounds near Fay Bainbridge Park fill quickly during summer months, especially on weekends. "This is a small camp ground, but very charming. The Rv spaces are close together but each site has water and electric. The downside is there is no sewage dumping site at the park," notes ML D.

    Limited sewer hookups: Many campgrounds around Redmond lack full hookups, requiring portable waste solutions. "There are a few 50 amp sites but from what I saw they were all taken by RVers that are there on a more permanent basis. If you want/need one, you cannot get one," explains Derek & Alex W. who stayed at Tall Chief Campground.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playground access: Several campgrounds offer dedicated children's play areas with varying amenities. "Cute campground very close to Seattle and Bellevue right on the lake. Beautiful beach area, basketball courts, playground, and volleyball right at the site," describes Erin A. who stayed at Vasa Park Resort.

    Educational opportunities: Some locations provide nature programs during summer months. "Amazing kids area pirate ship. Great beach walk and good camp sites. Be prepared for showers to be closed but the restrooms were open. Can't beat the views," shares Tanya B. about her stay at Fay Bainbridge Park.

    Proximity to conveniences: Most pet-friendly campgrounds near Redmond provide easy access to stores within 15 minutes. "You cannot beat this location! Close to Seattle, feels secluded, but you can walk or take a short drive to restaurants, groceries, anything you could want or need," explains John M. about Lake Pleasant RV Park.

    Tips from RVers

    Urban accessibility: RV parks provide convenient bases for exploring Seattle without downtown parking hassles. "We stayed at this park on a trip to Seattle. It was only about 30 minutes to downtown, but almost felt like you were out in the country," explains Nikki R. about Lake Pleasant RV Park.

    Hookup availability: Electric and water connections are standard at most campgrounds, though amperage varies. "The only campground we've been to where we didn't need to level the trailer. RV sites are all pull through its fairly quiet. Nice setting lots of outdoor and indoor activities with in a short drive," shares Russ H. who stayed at Tolt MacDonald Park.

    Campsite selection: RVers should arrive early to secure preferred sites, especially at dog-friendly campgrounds near Redmond with premium views. "In site 11 you can hear the highway when outside of rv but couldn't inside. Neighbors were very friendly. Pad was paved, level and long enough for Super C and toad," notes Mark O. about Blue Sky RV Park.
