Tent

Great stay. Having complete privacy was wonderful. Made a nice little fire with the wood provided and really enjoyed that. The porta potty was clean and well stocked with TP. As mentioned, there is a little noise from the highway (maybe 100 yds away through the forest)… but I’m a sound -enough sleeper that it did not bother me at all… even in a tent. I’d definitely stay here again.

AMAZING 5 STAR SITE

Tent · With kids

This site was amazing! The entire place was so clean, the port-a-potty was so clean I didn’t even worry about my kids using it. It felt private and beautiful. We had the most wonderful fires at night and felt safe letting our small children run around. The entire island felt accessible from where we were. We will absolutely be back! Thank you!

Location was great! The amenities were also awesome. I very much appreciated being stocked with firewood and clean Porta potty. Only downside was the sound of the highway. Others have said they hardly notice but it's quite loud and cars were going all night. Regardless I would go back for the rate, convenience, privacy of no other campers. Extra bonus was feeling like snow white with all the critters.

Great Campsite on Whidbey

20 ft travel trailer

Great spot for a few nights on the island in our travel trailer. Felt private and was very well kept up. Ended up pouring down rain the first couple of nights, so we didn’t use the fire pit, but it looked nice and cozy. Porta potty was recently serviced and cleaned. There is a main road behind the property, but we rarely noticed. The runaround had plenty of room for our 20 ft. trailer. We even got to see F-18’s fly over pretty close to the ground (not a common occurrence). Having worked on F-15’s, it took me back. Would highly recommend.
