Fay Bainbridge Park accommodates pets at all campsites across its tent, RV, and cabin options. The beach access campsites provide direct shore access for dogs, with sites 1-4 offering the best proximity to the water. Lake Pleasant RV Park in Bothell welcomes pets under 25 pounds, maintaining an exceptionally clean property with walking trails around the perimeter for dog exercise. North Sound Recreational Vehicle Park enforces a limit of two pets not exceeding 25 pounds each and maintains breed restrictions for aggressive dogs. Most campgrounds require pets to remain leashed outside accommodations, with owners responsible for waste cleanup. Many visitors note the peaceful environment at Lake Pleasant allows for enjoyable walks with dogs among resident wildlife including ducks and geese.
Walking trails surrounding Lake Pleasant provide convenient exercise areas for pets, though owners should be mindful of abundant goose droppings near the pond. North Sound's location in a residential area offers easy access to nearby pet supply stores and veterinary services in Lynnwood. Tolt MacDonald Park allows pets in their cabins and yurts as well as tent and RV sites, with hiking trails accessible directly from the campground. The camp host at Fay Bainbridge is consistently helpful with pet-related questions and recommendations for nearby activities. Weather considerations are important when camping with pets, as summer temperatures can require extra shade and water while winter camping may necessitate additional bedding for pets staying in tents or cabins.
"2, #3, #4 are IMO best after that as they move away from the beach and then curve around in ascending order.
Some neighbor noise, sites are close, but was not busy."

LegendReally 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!
GuideThere 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.
ScoutThis rv resort was way better than we were expecting, as a last minute add on. Massive dog park, indoor pool and fire areas, putt putt, pickleball, nature walking trails, kids outdoor play area, sun deck, and I’m sure there is more we haven’t gotten to see! Big spacious spots. About 25 mins from skagit speedway. Hope to come stay here again in the future!
ScoutVery friendly and helpful camp hosts. Big dog park, clean bathroom & showers. Paved. Some sites are narrow and shady but overall a very nice park.
LegendWonderful 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.
TravelerI’ve stayed at Rainbow’s End twice. Both times were in their overflow camping area, which are two spots with water and electric only, under some trees which made for comfortable shade. The staff at the park are nice and professional, the facilities are always clean, and there is a large dog park (it has a somewhat short fence, perfect for my small dogs but be careful with bigger animals). Lots of people live at Rainbow’s end full time. It’s very clean and well maintained. You do get some road noise from the US 101, but it’s not too noticeable. If you aren’t taking advantage of water and electric hookups, it could be a little expensive.
GuideThis 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.
ScoutExcellent 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.
GuideThe 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!

Clean facilities: Dash Point State Park maintains well-kept grounds and restrooms. "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.

Privacy between sites: Many campgrounds offer separated camping spots. "The tent spots are clustered together in 2 areas with a shared covered pavilion," explains Sable at Fay Bainbridge.

Proximity to services: Most dog-friendly campgrounds near Shoreline maintain close access to towns. At Tolt MacDonald, Mercedes D. points out, "It's located right smack in the middle of carnation so on a nice sunny day you could walk out of the park to get pizza, ice cream or even mexican food."

Dump station access: Check whether facilities include on-site dumping. ML D. mentions about Fay Bainbridge, "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. However there are public bathroom available."
