Beautiful!

Beautiful little state park! 24 sites... On reservation system so probably booked on busy weekends. Close to Bremerton. View from water is stunning... Just a long hike back up! Road noise is a bummer...

Fun convenient campsite

Stayed here in May and had wonderful weather. Close enough to town for any necessities but far enough to get the secluded feeling. Firewood on site for sale is always great. Great place to walk around and enjoy what the deep green that is Washington state.

Beautiful place for hiking fishing. Great fun with family and friends to get together for a weekend and let go of all the daily stress.

Always great to have onsite host. Firewood for sale at host camp which is the first site going in. Very nice people and always ready to help with any questions you need answered. A must visit especially if you are visiting from out of state. Located in a very quiet nice area of Bremerton but don't just take my word,give it a try and take in the beauty for yourself.

Great hiking!

The campground was great, but we only stayed 1 night because our main reason was to hike Saturday morning. We got an early morning start on Saturday to beat the hiking traffic. We really only slept at the campground and were there less than 10hrs total. The campground looked nice, and clean! The spots were a decent size, fit our car and tent. Table and fire ring within the campsite which was great! We used the table to hold our packs and food! Bathroom seemed to be pretty clean and had TP. Obviously because it’s a porta potty it didn’t smell the best. Campground was easy to find in the evening and within good distance to some awesome hikes. The weather held up for us and was sunny and blue skies. We thought it might rain but didn’t. We would definitely come back, but hopefully next time we will make a long weekend out of it.

Beautiful spot near beach!

The hiking around here is amazing and theres so many different things to do here. It’s close to the water, too which is really neat. They have a playground for kids, fields to play in and an awesome volleyball court. We will definitely come back once they reopen

Good for glamping

The park is beautiful, but not in a good way. Instead of feeling like I was in nature I felt like I was in a manicured neighborhood park. The sounds of the neighborhood streets took me right out of feeling like I was camping.

The sites are super tiny and the tent platforms are equally so. The place seemed much better suited to glamping than camping.
