This is a place that time seemed to forget! From the path getting to this location to wondering around and familiarizing yourself with the well-placed tent, RV and cabins, one can see why it is well used year-round. Yet so well cared for that you might never know just how much this high use site is actually used. Getting here from the I-5 La Conner exits maybe a bit of a chore, most suggest the I-5 Anacortes exit right to the gates. The two-lane road is full of older trees and wildlife so leave with plenty of time and don't forget your camera! There is something for every outdoor enthusiast, from walking by the bay to biking and hiking the trails. The food scene will not disappoint either! Anacortes and La Conner boasts farm to table almost year-round. Anacortes has many types of restaurants to choose from. Most of the Thousand trails parks have first come first serve spaces available, both with and without full hookups and some other spaces depending upon your level. Most all of the RV hookups have water and electric, but not all of them will have sewage. To help with this situation, you can bring your portable hookup and travel it to and from your space as needed or just sparingly use your tanks and dump them as needed at the dump station. For this site they are located just outside of the gate for convenience. There are different yet the same things at the various parks around Washington and most likely the rest of the states, we just have not gotten there yet. At this particular park we would see no swimming pool but there is a tennis court, mini golf and hot tub all in their own locations. Bring your own clubs or borrow some from the sign in area at the gate. This park is great for getting away from it all just as much as it is to have the kids and family members, and while we stayed multiple times during the summer's past, any and all the park care takers were more than ready to take care of anything we needed, all that they asked of us was to ask of them what was needed. Hope to see you there!

I bought a cabin pass and staying at this site in La Conner pays for itself with the gorgeous views and proximity to good restaurants and shops of the quaint town of La Conner.

The gatehouse staff are friendly and welcoming. This is an older campground with blackberry bushes growing throughout the park, scratching you as you walk down the narrow roadways and crowding the already small campsites. The campsites are not level and fill with giant puddles when it rains. Lots of fulltimers taking up all the sewer and view spots. They don't assign campsites so after you pay for your stay you have to drive around the park hoping you can find a site that fits your rig. For us, this process took longer than the drive to the campground. The sewer smell permeates throughout the campground through many uncapped cisterns. The view from the beach is great. Confirm the price for propane or they will inflate the price by 400%

I few months ago, I got online and procured a site for the weekend. I printed out the map and circled the sites I was interested in. Was already disappointed to find out it was first come first serve. This means that after you forfeit your dough, you do NOT get the pick of the site. Not all sites have full hook up and it's like chop suey, you never know what you are going to get. Upon entry I pulled off to the side and rode my electric scooter around to look for a site that is befitting for me. Most of the good sites were taken with a few sites closed off for maintenance. Those good sites had family and dogs, which spell's disaster for someone who is looking for peace and quiet. I settled on a blackberry carved-out site. I sat there contemplating on leaving. 20 minutes later as I about to leave and therefore eat the 70 bucks I spent on this site I rolled pass something I could work with, so I backed in and started to set up. It was ok. Up until I found the fermented smell of dog shit buried under the dried out leaves. A brand new fire pit laid there just wanting to find its way in the back of my truck but reluctantly it didn't happen. The site turned out ok. My stuff was fully dusty as the roads aren't paved, the site I was in had partial hook ups as evident of the dog shit. Overall for the travel and the disappointing lack of paying early to hopefully get a good site that overlooks the water wasn't there, I will not be coming back. I did have the most delicious prime rib I hadn't had in ages in Laconner, so all was for not,I guess.

Hmmmm..... what to say about this place. First, I don't know her name, but the woman who runs it was super nice and helpful. Soda, who works the gate was also super nice and friendly. From there it goes quickly down hill. Unfortunately, the park is not very nice. It is over run with long term people in broke down RVs with junk everywhere. It literally looks like a step above a homeless camp. It is too bad because it has tons of potential. I hate to say it, but it is best to pass this one up.

Beautiful park, but the staff hit my car with their golf cart and restricted my account because of it. They don't have sewer hookups, no functional laundry facilities either. They keep the "hot" tub at a paltry 95°, barely even warm. In the middle of nowhere, too. The closest real grocery store is 20 minutes away. Avoid if you have any other options!*Update*They replied to this review faster than they replied to their customer service line...Safety: The staff will chase you down with their golf cart, hit you with it, and scream at you because your placard was facing the wrong way. Then they'll cancel your reservations and place a restriction on your account, all without bothering to inform you. Avoid if possible!

We have a Thousand Trails membership and we’re supposed to stay here a week but decided to leave after two nights. We started looking around at all the dead trees on the property and they’re plentiful. One of the dead trees next to our 5th wheel had a vertical split in it and was leaning towards our trailer. With the wind storm forecasted that day could have easily broken off and hit our trailer. There are only a handful of sites that have power, water and septic. We saw big rigs like ours staying at tiny campsites barely fitting without full hookups. When my husband told the staff at the ranger station about the tree, how when it splits it could kill someone, how he used to work in the logging industry so he knows trees they didn’t give him the time of day. They just didn’t care!! We’ll never be back and will be cancelling our membership. This is the last time we’ll stay at yet another TT with limited full hookup sites. They over book and under deliver.Walkability: You can walk around the campground.

Great staff, especially Sarah, Kat and Anabelle! Always cheerful, extremely helpful and listened to your needs. Made it right when they could. Good job getting everyone through the unfortunately long sewer situation.

This is a 1970s vibe location. The clubhouse is paneled with diagonal wood and secret doors to the quiet side with a conversation pit fireplace. The spaces are divided by blackberry bushes. It's WA so pot is allowed to be smoked. It is on the Sound about 2 hrs north of downtown Seattle. Only 1.5 hrs away from the Canadian border. We didn't get a chance to see everything. The bathrooms are old but well cleaned.
