Valhalla Tree Farm

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents100 acres · Arlington, WA
Nestled near Arlington, our 75-acre property spans both new and old forest, featuring a salmon-filled creek and a vibrant beaver pond—all set against the dramatic backdrop of a 1,200-foot sheer cliff crowned with old-growth trees. Since its purchase in 1958 as a family retreat, this land has grown into much more than a getaway. It has become a place for relaxation, adventure, and connection with nature—a private forest for family and friends to enjoy. Over the years, the family has embraced forest stewardship and sustainable timber harvesting, while also creating campsites, trails, hosting rock concerts, and even making wine. What began as a simple escape has evolved into something extraordinary: a tree farm that successfully balances nearly every goal a forest landowner could imagine—timber production, wildlife habitat, natural beauty, recreation, and forest resilience. Valhalla embodies all of this with a harmony so seamless, it feels effortless.

RV camping in Deception Pass guide

Overview

Although Deception Pass is the name of a strait in the San Juan Islands, the name is more commonly used to refer to Deception Pass State Park, the most-visited state park in Washington. The park has 134 partial hookup sites plus a dump station, and a few RV sites are big enough to accommodate vehicles up to 60 feet in length.State park RV campsites can be reserved up to nine months in advance of your stay, and they can book up quickly, especially if you're trying to get a reservation on a summer weekend. Fortunately, there are tons of alternative options in the area, from privately run RV parks to quiet, tucked-away spots that private landowners in the area rent out to campers and RVers on Hipcamp. Many are situated on private farms and some come with perks such as restrooms, shared kitchens or cooking areas, and fire pits.
