On the beach, hook ups, kites

This State park is right on the wide beach in the village of Pacific beach. There are lots of hook ups for electricity to run your heaters in winter. Pacific beach has a coffee shop and tavern for dining and a naval rec center up the hill with a restaurant. Miles of beach combing, kite flying. Popular in season for razor clams, surf perch.

Nice area on Padilla bay

Their are several sites with hookups, cabins, tent sites. Beach walks and a county path nearby. There is also a marine center with small aquarium nearby.

Liberty Lake Tidy and quiet

This is a Spokane County campground about a mile from the Idaho border. It’s located down a country road so use the website to find it. It had two ex-marine hosts when we visited so the potential for yahoos is low. In fact it was neat, tidy, and quiet when we visited for one night. It is a popular place for locals and fills quickly. Warm showers are included. Beware that tent sites 2&3 accommodate one compact vehicle only, this is not clear from website which will accept payment for 2. The other would have to park elsewhere as directed. The park is pleasant with lake access and hiking trails
