Description

**Campground at Whidbey Island Fairgrounds Reopens with Exciting Upgrades**

The Port of South Whidbey and Whidbey Island Fairgrounds and Event Center are thrilled to announce the reopening of their campground after a six-week construction period. The campground is set to welcome visitors back Monday, April 14th

One of the most significant changes is the introduction of an online reservation and payment system through the website ‘Roverpass’. Campers can now easily select and reserve their sites, similar to how one would book a vacation rental through platforms like Airbnb. This advancement aims to streamline the booking process and enhance the overall camping experience. Please note we will no longer be accepting cash at the campground registration kiosk. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

In addition to the new reservation system, the campground is excited to welcome Mark and Andrea as the new campground hosts. They will reside on-site to assist guests and maintain the grounds. With their extensive experience as campground hosts, Mark and Andrea look forward to meeting guests and sharing stories around the campsite.

The campground now features seven premium sites situated along the front of the grounds, offering stunning views of the horse arena and Saratoga Passage. These premium campsites come equipped with 50amp, 30amp, and 20amp electrical receptacles, as well as frost-free water hydrants. Additionally, 13 more campsites will provide 30amp and 20amp options along with water hookups. For those who prefer tent camping, a designated area without electrical hookups will still provide access to drinking water. Pricing for the premium sites has increased to $45 per night, while all other sites will be available for $35 per night. Stays are limited to 14 days, and a dump station is accessible to the public for $5 per use.

In conjunction with the reopening, Port and Fairgrounds staff will focus on landscaping and seeding the newly leveled ground. Emphasizing the use of native plants and water-loving species will not only beautify the area and help improve drainage but also support pollinators, benefiting the overall ecosystem. Campers are encouraged to tread lightly while new plants take root.

Stay tuned for further announcements regarding the official plans for a grand opening event this summer.

Funky, convenient

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.

Crap

If 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.

Simple. Close to town filled with restaurants, pubs, art, movies & beach.

This campground is a little primitive in its layout but fits the needs well. A bit of a distance to the restrooms/shower. There is a close Port-o-let.

It is located in an historic Fairgrounds with lots of charm...and bunnies! Good sunshine in summer. Not much shade.

Nicest things are the close proximity to Langley, a very quaint town with great coffee! The marina and beach are very accessible. There are good restaurants, a grocery with deli, pubs and winery.
