Jarrell Cove State Park
Reviewed Aug. 1, 2016

Cozy Campground on the Sound

There are two sites here with hookups. No dump station on the grounds. Site 8 is a pull through and is very large, but not so private as everyone walking to the main dock walks right past your site. Site 10 is a back in site but is very secluded with brush all around the site. Both sites have an obstructed view of the water through the trees with site 8 having a slightly better view. There are some great walking trails through the woods you can take if you need to collect yourself. There is a hidden field (which is actually the drain field for the septic system) in the woods that we found useful for running the dog. We wish we had kayaks with us. The nearby Olympic Bakery is very nice. Driving around the island was frustrating because you can't really get to the water anywhere other than at the other state park. The drive to Jarrel cove is on a very rural road with several places where the road is almost one lane wide. Tent sites are really cute here and if you want to haul your stuff a few hundred feet you can choose sites very near the water, or deep in the woods.
