Lake Easton

Lake Easton State Park is a gem in the Cascades and one of the best places we’ve camped. The lake itself is absolutely beautiful, calm, clear water surrounded by forested hills that make every view feel like a postcard. Whether you’re sitting at camp, walking along the trails, or watching the sunset over the water, it’s peaceful and refreshing. We came in with a truck and toy hauler, and the park had no issues accommodating us. The campsites are well laid out with plenty of space and privacy, and we were able to set up comfortably without feeling crowded. The park is clean, quiet, and really well maintained. Bathrooms and amenities were all in good condition, which made the stay even better. There’s so much to do here, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, biking, or just relaxing by the lake. The trails are fun to explore, and being able to wake up right next to the water is unbeatable. It’s also in a convenient location, making it easy to get in and out without feeling too far from town. If you’re looking for a scenic, relaxing, and family-friendly spot to camp, Lake Easton State Park should be at the top of your list.

Great way to spend a vacation, a weekend, or even a day! Beautiful lake with stunning views, little walking trails & lots of places to bbq and picnic.

The road noise is loud and constant. Besides that, as campgrounds go, it’s standard. The water wasn’t working at the spigots (6/17/25). Beautiful river trail that takes you to the base of the damn, which makes a waterfall. Drive about 5ish minutes to get to the lake access/beach . It wasn’t busy so the parking seamed more than adequate. Clean restroom. Nice playground. Boat launch is right before the beach area. The lake itself is amazing. Incredible scenery to see and explore. If you go under the railroad bridge it takes you to the river inlet. We kayaked/paddle boarded, and I doubt a boat could go that route.

Cool state park, our camping spot was nice secluded, sites are good size, good hiking trails, lake was prefect, bathrooms were nice also.

I reserved this place online without ever going there, and our campsite was a stone's throw from the highway. All day and all night we had to yell at each other to hear over the road noise. I thought it would quiet down by nighttime, but it wasn't enough. We could see the cars and trucks from our site, and the noise was awful. The beach was small and crowded and we had to park in the additional parking area, but it was not marked well to get to the beach, so we had to walk in the road to get there. The good part was that they allow dogs and have a nice picnic table. They don't sell firewood, which was a bummer.
