    Millersylvania State Park Campground

    Nice State Park with Plenty to Do. Lake, Hiking, Store.

    This is a very nice, typical Washington state park with plenty of trees, greenery, hiking, pathways and even a lake. There's a camp store along with several large outdoor kitchens that would be good to use for groups. Many of the structures like the kitchens and even bathrooms were built back in the 1930s by the CCC, which is pretty cool. It's just far enough off I-5 to not have the freeway noise, but close enough to be convenient. It's also nearby to Great Wolf Lodge if you're looking for a place to stay near there.

    On the other hand, the RV sites especially are basically in a big field with a cement road going around it. The sites have tables and fire pits, but no privacy what-so-ever. The tent sites are slightly better, with more trees, but still very close to one another.

    The campground also has glamping available (canvas permanent tents) that looked cool.

    Millersylvania State Park Campground

    Nice place

    Beautiful spot, though tightly packed and crowded/noisy. We stayed in spot 59 on a Saturday night. It was rainy and the fire pit area had plenty of puddles. Lots of folks came in later in the evening with multiple cars and sat out talking; plenty of them packed up and left before 8 am. We walked the fen trail, which was spooky and different from our home of Colorado! Reservations needed. There are also glamping cabins. Nice clean bathrooms with flush toilets, water available at multiple locations, showers available with tokens.

    Millersylvania State Park Campground

    A close get away

    I have camped here a number of times over the years. This is a nice woodsy campground just south of Olympia, WA located on Deep lake. It has a very old growth forest feel to it. This campground offers many activities: hiking trails, fitness trails,fishing, boat rental, and even a concession stand. The fishing is good for trout,bass, and sun fish. This park offers both hookup and non utility tent sites as well as glamping tents.

    Cons: most of the hookup sites are in a field with zero privacy but there are a few that are much better like the last spot I stayed at.

    The primitive sites are better but the roads are quite narrow with limited access for RV's.

    The "Glamping tents"are very nice but crazy expensive at over $300 a night. Like most of the State Parks reservations book up quickly so it pays to plan ahead

    Pros: fishing is pretty good even from shore. The day use area is great but pretty rustic. Lots of trails to hike but not as well marked as I would expect. Really close to Seattle so it is ideal for a weekend getaway Friday after work.

    DO NOT GO

    The bathrooms were filthy Quiet hours were not enforced The place is falling apart and looks decrepit: from fences to bathrooms The only dirt roads and sites(no gravel or asphalt anywhere) make everything filthy Site boundaries are practically impossible to determine as a number is the only way to see, no side lines Our site did not even have a picnic table

    Great group camp site!

    The group site set apart from the rest of the camping, so you can really enjoy the space without feeling like you are bothering the other campers. There's lots of space for tents plus some wooden bunks in a wooden shelter, a nice option for people new to camping who don't have a tent, but I'd be afraid of spiders! :O Site is adjacent to a river access, which I did not get a chance to check out myself, but being near water is always a plus to me.

    The campgrounds are about an our of of Seattle, so it's a really nice low-commitment option for those residing in the greater Seattle area. Despite being so close, it doesnt feel very populated or anything like that, nice and woodsy still! :)

    The only drawback to the group site is occasionally you'll get a random person wandering through to access the water.

    I wouldn't suggest going so late in the year unless you are prepared for rain, it poured on us most of the stay, but we still managed to have fun. Luckily there is a large covered dining area so it's survivable in rain

    Dosewallips State Park Campground

    Fun, busy campground

    There is a river and salmon climb it to spawn in October I believe. Very cool to see. Campground is large, with about 20% of camp sites have good privacy. Walking distance to a gas station for supplies. Clean bathrooms with running water.

    Lake Easton State Park Campground

    Great Family fun.

    Came last minute during father's day weekend looking for a tent site. The booth host was very helpful letting us know that there was only two spots left and answering many more questions. We were able to find a perfect site for my family of 4. Clean raised tent bed with pea-gravel raked evenly good for 6-7 person tent . Fire pit is decently sized approximately 3x2 with a flip top grill that covers half of it. Paved road gravel parking space big enough for a trailer/camper . Dumpster and water spicket as well as a bathroom with pay to use shower's . ¢50-1 token = 3 minute shower. Small playground with a basketball court by the bathrooms. Lovely river walk trail follows the Yakima River . Activities for children such as the Jr. Ranger program. Gas station is close just cross the highway sells firewood as well . Overall great first time at the campground friendly staff will be coming back.

    Kanaskat-Palmer State Park

    Our favorite camping close to home

    We love coming here. It's close proximity to our house allows us to hook up the trailer after work and include a Friday night in our camping weekend! The availability seems pretty good too, especially in Spring when some campgrounds are not quite open yet.

    This campground has great clean and heated bathrooms. Sites and roads are paved. Hook ups are electric only, bring your water. The first time we went we did not know and our Basecamp's heat runs via the hot water heater. It was cold! The sites are large and pretty private. We have stayed in site 42 which is a back in spot with fire pit and table above the back of the pad. Also, we have enjoyed site 38, a pull through that gave us nice wooded views and privacy.

    The campground loop is a nice walk or cruise on a bike. There is easy access to a beautiful stretch of the Green River, with picnicking areas and walking trails. You might catch a kayaker in the river, I hear this stretch take a lot of skill!


Guide to Sumner

Located between the urban centers of Tacoma and Seattle and the wilderness of Mount Rainier, these campsites experience mild, occasionally rainy summers with temperatures averaging 75°F. Several campgrounds in the area maintain year-round operation despite the Pacific Northwest's typically wet winter season, providing camping options regardless of when you visit.

What to Do

Hiking trails: Dash Point State Park Campground offers multiple trails for campers seeking outdoor activities. "There's a day use lake and we had a wonderful time camping here!" notes Brittany L. The park includes access to both forest paths and beach areas, making it ideal for varied terrain exploration.

Water recreation: Alder Lake Park provides excellent lake access for swimming and boating. "Alder lake is a great spot for both swim play and boating.

The park maintains designated swimming areas for safety.

Paddleboarding opportunities: Accessible water activities are available at several locations. "10 minute drive from Deep Lake which is beautiful and great for swimming and paddle boarding," shares Ashlie M. about Kanaskat-Palmer State Park. The calm waters make this area suitable for beginners and experienced paddlers alike.

What Campers Like

Privacy between sites: Campground layout and natural barriers enhance the camping experience. "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," writes Brittany D. about Dash Point State Park. The natural vegetation creates separation between neighboring campsites.

River access: Riverbend Campground provides direct river frontage for campers. "We stayed there on a Thursday right on the river. Super peaceful, great fire pit location, water at the site entrance, portable restrooms away (but close), and best of all right at the river's edge," reports J. The riverside sites offer both scenic views and recreational opportunities.

Proximity to Mount Rainier: Many glamping options near Sumner serve as base camps for national park exploration.

This proximity allows campers to enjoy park amenities while having relatively easy access to major wilderness areas.

What You Should Know

Airplane noise: Some campgrounds experience significant air traffic noise. "Commercial jets landing at Sea-Tac fly directly above us at a low altitude and are VERY loud and VERY frequent (every 3-5 minutes)," notes Travis P. about Saltwater State Park Campground. Sites closer to the airport flight paths may not be suitable for light sleepers.

Reservation requirements: Most campgrounds require advance booking, particularly during peak seasons. "We got lucky and snagged the very last spot here on a Saturday in late September. It's a beautiful campground," shares Laura M. about Kanaskat-Palmer State Park. Booking ahead is strongly recommended, especially for weekend stays.
