Deception state park runs woods right up to the beach. The campground is set back a bit, but an easy 10 minute walk to the beach. Beautiful and easy trails surround the camp ground. I suggest walking out to Deception Pass bridge (about 1.5 miles). It's a great, easy hike and the bridge is pretty wild to see up close. Will definitely be back!
Ebey State park camping was quite luxurious (as far as camping goes)! The sites are extremely well kept, bathroom facilities very clean, and you can't beat the views from the bluff. This, of course, comes at a cost - we wandered into one of the higher priced sites ($35/night). They do also have $25 standard sites. I did appreciate the extra space and privacy of the larger site. It would also be great for more people as well (allow up to 2 cars w/ +$15 for second car and up to 8 people per site).
Don't miss:
- Sunset on the bluff
- Exploring the old battery
- Walk to the beach (trail is off the bluff, steep and long. Bring water!)
- A quick drive to Fort Casey to explore more battery sites
- Breakfast at Knead and Feed in Coupeville
