Old Fort Townsend

Brandie Hardman-Wright

Calm forested campground. The woman who checked us in was friendly. Bathrooms are kept clean and the shower really great considering it’s a campground shower. Much better than a lot of other places we’ve been. It’s a good base camp to go exploring outside the camp too. Fort Worden beach area is a great place to spend a few hours. And check out Puget Sound Express whale watching tours! The 4 star is because you hear a mild amount of air traffic and the paper mill in Port Townsend produces a stench that sometimes floats over the campground.

We love this place. It's clean. Has bathrooms with flushing toilets. Lots of green grass. Miles of hiking trails.

Fort Townsend State Park is a lovely spot if you’re looking for quick access to the water. After a short walk down a scenic path, you’re rewarded with beautiful waterfront views. The campsites are fairly close together, and from what I could tell, they’re all back-in sites, so keep that in mind if you’re bringing an RV or trailer. One thing that stood out was how clean the restrooms were—clearly well-maintained, which made the stay more comfortable. Overall, a nice, peaceful place with easy shoreline access.

This was a great campground. The employees working the booth were extremely helpful. We had reserved a spot near the showers but we're unable to get the teardrop backed into the site. What the picture on the website when we reserved didn't show was a boulder and a tree that made it impossible to back the trailer into the site. The employees were able to find us a pull through spot down below near the field that was super easy to get set up in. I would say that the pull through spots are all a little close. We checked in late so we didn't have time to explore the trails or beach, and a return trip is a must. Very quiet and peaceful location. Well off the road where you heard no road noise at all. Where we were located there were a couple of vault toilets at one end and down the hill near the day use area there were men/women restrooms with flushing toilets and sinks.

We rolled in without a reservation on a Wed and found our choice of several spots. Super clean and nestled in the trees and near the bay. The restrooms were well stocked and the showers were available in the upper building. Easy to self check in and it was $32 for the night. No military/veteran discount for out of state residents. Near lots of walking trails.
