Maple Grove Campsites are located on Baker Lake Trail. This is a wonderful family hike for all seasons with its low elevation and level grade. Stands of giant old growth trees draped in lichen and covered in moss are some of the highlights along this trail. Baker Lake Trail is the only trail on Mt. Baker Ranger District open for stock and llama use year round. It can also be accessed at the north via Baker River Trail 606. This trail leads into a majestic stand of Douglas fir that regrew after Mt. Baker erupted and started a forest fire in 1843. You can still see the burned snags of the cedar trees that once dominated the area. From south to north, the trail contours the eastern shoreline of Baker Lake, offering glimpses of Mt. Baker. All along the trail spot western trillium, twinflower, foamflower, coralroot and twisted stalk.

Recreation alert: CLOSED DNR has temporarily closed the Harry Osborne State Forest in Skagit County to motor vehicle access after years of vandalism, garbage dumping, and other public safety issues. Parking at the Les Hilde Trailhead will be closed through July 1 and camping will not be allowed through the end of the year, though the forest remains open for walk-in dispersed recreation.
A Discover Pass is required for access to Harry Osborne State Forest.
Baker Lake Horse camp is a dispersed campsite along the north-east side of Baker Lake. Baker lake camping is situated in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest and Baker River valley southwest of North Cascades National Park and is fed by the Baker River along with numerous smaller
Along Thunder Creek Trail, the first open view is from a 1970 burn at about 4.5 miles (7.2 km). Here an emerging forest of young Douglas-fir and a profusion of seed bearing herbs and shrubs attract birds, rodents and their predators. Across the valley, note a newer burn from lightning strikes in 1990. Rock cliffs and McAllister Glacier provide natural fire breaks and a splendid backdrop for this evolving forest scene. The next backcountry camps, McAllister hiker and stock, are located at mile 6.7 (10.8 km) and are a popular overnight destination. Pass the stock camp first, with a view from a high cliff down Thunder Creek. This view was created in the massive floods of 2003, when the river below shifted course significantly and carved into the cliff, suddenly bringing trail and hiker into much closer proximity to the creek! Hikers continue a short distance and cross the roaring creek on a log bridge to access the spacious and green creek-side hiker camp. The far site is a group site. Smaller Tricouni Camp lies 1.3 miles (2.1 km) beyond McAllister, in a more open salal forest, just after crossing Fisher Creek on a bridge. From Tricouni, the trail begins its first real climb: a relentless 2.2 miles (3.5 km) gains over 1000 feet (305 m) to reach Junction Camps (hiker and stock) and a major trail junction. From the high ridge of the hiker camp, enjoy an expansive view of Boston Glacier and Tricouni Peak. From here, one may either take the Fisher Creek Trail 14.8 miles (23.8 km) over Easy Pass to SR 20, or continue on the Thunder Creek Trail to Park Creek Pass. Both ways lead to grand trail experiences.

Very nice campground,! Very nice campsite! And very clean restrooms ! And has a family restroom/shower room which makes it very nice! We love it are returning
TravelerWe live about a 20 min drive from silver lake. We go often , sometimes to just go hike around the trails and have lunch, we also take day trips to the lake there and go kayaking and ALWAYS have fun there nice big lake and fun for the kiddos too! Easy boat launch access! And we do camp there a couple times a year we love the camp site layouts and availability

Langley is a great little town. I don’t know why they haven’t done more to develop the campground- all sites are first-come-first served. They did repair the electrical system this year and just reopened. It’s at the fairgrounds on the edge of town, there’s a largely unlandscaped grass field with electrical boxes & (some) water connections. There is a dump out on site and potable water. There are accessible bathrooms and showers nearby. The campground is on a hill above the horse barn and arena, very convenient to the town of Langley, which is delightful. No camp host available, nobody you can call for assistance. Because the campground just reopened, we were the only ones camped most of the 6 days we were here. I love Langley but they are not as tourist-driven as many towns which have campgrounds like this.

Camping is great for those who like to experience the atmosphere of the mountains and forests or resorts that also have camping. As the article above shows, camping is very fun if we have a happy spirit. So let's see the feedback experiences of customers when coming to the camping places on this website: https://suikagameonline.io

Really nice farm with a great mountain view. Quiet rural setting but close to town (Mt. Vernon) if you need anything or just want to explore the farmer's market, as we did. Woodland trail on the 10+ acres was a real plus for our two dogs. Hosts were helpful and responsive. All around a great weekend. Thank you.
LegendGreat campground. Love the lake. Easy access for our kayak. Beautiful lake for fishing as well. The cleanest restrooms and showers that I have ever experienced camping. We have been here three times now. No sewer, but the dump area is quiet and efficient. Beautiful woods and hiking available as well. We will be back.
ScoutWent solo camping loved it
ScoutIf you are there even 5 min past the 10 day limit even though you are obviously packing up the manager will give you a specific time to be gone by or ahe will call the police in an attempt to have you tresspased then call the cops 40mins before that time and on the 9th day she called the police to do a welfare check even though everyone was up and moving around obviously ok. 😡 Never again and i may not even go to their crappy carnival they try to call a fair either.
ScoutFIrst time here. Beautiful, serene and peaceful. Only disagreement involved a chipmunk. We just decided to agree to disagree. :) Had wonderful neighbors. Lake swimming area is walkable via a trail that runs behind the sites.
Scout
Update. Stockwater has been gaited off due to vandalism and trash dumping. You may utilize trails to walk your horses down to the water. This is primarily a horse/hiking camp. There is not access for motorized Vehicles on the mountain Any longer. There are 2 manure pits, a vault toilet, some fire pits, and a group covered table area. This is dry camping with no potable water or garbage.
Note that this is a working forest and may have heavy log truck traffic at times...the gates will be locked otherwise.
Scout
It's more of a place to park then a full on campground. It has water and 30 amp power at all spots with access to a dump station. You are limited to 7 nights per month. It's right next to the fairgrounds so you have all the sounds that come with that. A great place if you are one of the vendors for an event at the fairgrounds. It was $35 a night. If you reserve your spot online there is an $8 fee to do that. The power pedestals is set up for 2 rv's per pole so it might be on the wrong side so you need to run an extra cord or hose. Not a problem if your set up for it.
ScoutWe stayed here two week and loved it.. hated to leave!
Host was very friendly and accommodating . The grounds are well kept. Nice fire pit and Beer Garden area and a great view with mountains and trees surrounding you.
Traveler
Great rest site. It is quiet and they offer a lot of camping/tenting opportunities around the place.
Owners have done a great job of keeping it up and offering wonderful and adventuresome trails to hike or ride for all levels of experience.
A definite place worth checking out, provided you can book early enough...
Scout
Spent one night at Lizard Lake. Only 4 campsites there and all really close to each other. All the sites had a fire ring, bench and a flat area to set up your tent. The hike up is pretty easy but the only water source is from the lakes which is not the cleanest water so bring a good filter.
Once you get a spot it is very easy to go to the other lookouts that are not far from the lakes.
Ranger
Highest road in WA: Harts Pass. You need good weather, 4W drive and high clearance. Yep, sedans might be able to do it but they shouldn’t, plain and simple. If you bottom out on this road, you have a LONG walk to town.
Camp: moderately sized sites. We arrived July 1 and only two campsites were habitable due to snow. A bear box would be nice. The landscape is a bit unusual due to beetle and fire damage.
GuideTraveling from Seattle, we stumbled upon this campground. Kind of confusing to find, it’s called “RV2” and you follow the signs to it in the fairground parking lot. More for RVs and not so much tents, we ended up sleeping in the car. Didn’t utilize the showers, but there was a port a pot for us to use. Camp host was nice, $25 for the night. Racetrack is loud but was expected
ScoutThis is under snohomish county park system. Rates are good price. Notable considerations, near racetrack ongoing races and trials usually quiets down early evening this time of year. Great place to go adventure for the day. A couple major stores to stock up on. Friendly staff check in was a breeze just call the number.
ScoutNot a place for tranquility. The price is right for what you get. Dump station you either drive to or take your porta can and drag it there. Hosts are good people and quiet when races not running. I'd stay here again
GuideIt is an open fairground with rv hookups.
TravelerRecently redone sites,, with new bbq/fire pits. New gravel around the site. We had a great time, most of the sites are very big with lots of room some more private than others but over-all I'd rate a 7/10 for privacy. Very shaded spots too. The walk to the lake isn't bad. Bathroom facilities were okay, showers were not working and one was out of T.p. the whole time. The grounds are great for kids to play, lots of fields, and creeks to explore, and perfect for family bike riding or skate boarding.
RangerStarting spot for our PCT SOBO thru-hike in 2019. Woke up to snow on the summer solstice!
Beautiful area (even with the eastern approach to it a burned down forest) and for most of the summer, there are super nice rangers at the cabin there. If you are a thru-hiker, theres oftentimes trail magic here!! Easy hitch down to Mazama.

Took the site to the farthest north. STUNNING sunset views of Baker and (if you get into the water) Shuksan. Bunch of flat sites, great fire-rings, and even an old dock if you have a boat. No running water, but... there’s a lake right there!
Hiked the whole Baker Lake Trail and from what we saw, this was the best site!
TravelerAlong Thunder-creek trail Junction is tucked away about 10 miles in. While the hike is relatively easy-moderate while passing through the other camps, once you get pass camp Tricouni you have 2.2 miles until camp Junction and it’s a strenuous hike up the mountain for about a mile. There are 3 campsites to choose from in Junction. Get there relatively early because there are only 2 with a view of the glacier, the third is nice and private and tucked away but you won’t see the mountain from the site. The pit toilet is tucked away in some trees to your left of the campsites with plenty of privacy and scenery. Junction great spot for camping or to break for lunch and take in the gorgeous views. I will add if you choose to visit during a warmer time bring bug spray and get a fire going ASAP to keep them at bay until the night air comes in.
ScoutGreat place to bring your LQ (any size rig) and camp with your horses. There are a few non-equestrians, but we need to keep this a place for equestrians because we are losing more and more campsites. Trails are well maintained and extensive.
No water or electric at the camp, but you can drive down to a creek and pump or collect water for your horses. You will be boondocking.
High-line poles are available to high-tie your horses. We set up a portable corral and were fine. Picnic tables and fire rings are also available.
No manure pile or wheel barrow. There is a vault toilet and I got cell service on my phone.
GuideUnless you’re going to the fairgrounds, this’ll probably be torture. The racetrack here is non stop noise when they’re racing. It’s a gravel parking lot with no real amenities. Perfect for a vendor at the fair, not great for someone who wants a peaceful spot to park an RV.
GuideSeems like these sites are quite popular. However, I went during the middle of the week, on a slightly rainy day, at the end of August and was the only person there.
If you're like me and not from Washington, remember to get a discovery pass (~$10 per day) if you're parking at the Baker Lake Trailhead. The hike in to Maple Grove is approx. three and a half miles. Don't be surprised if you run into some folks on horseback.
The trail is relatively flat and goes through some beautiful old growth forest. We got a spot right by the lake that was flat and soft. All of the sites had fire pits and seemed pretty dispersed. There were also bear boxes. The vault toilets were some of the cleanest I'd seen.
As you can see from some of the photos, there's a dock that you could boat up to that doubles as a great place see Mt. baker.
GuideThe road to Hart's pass is carved into the side of a mountain and NOT for the faint of heart. But once you're up there, the views are great. It was pretty smoky in August of 2018 from all the wildfires and the campground itself was burned through in the not too distant past (not sure when) but it is still a gorgeous spot. It is the kick off for the last leg of the PCT before Canada and the start of a nice backpack South to Rainy Pass.
There is little or no shade or privacy because of the lack of trees but the sites are fairly far apart.
Great place for star gazing!
