42 RV Sites, 1 Cabin, 46 Tent Sites, 4 Glamping Sites, 1 Cottage, 10 Tipis

Smokiam RV Resort in Soap Lake, WA, offers 42 full-hookup RV sites, 2 cabin and cottage rentals, 46 tent sites, and 14 glamping and tipi sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites are labeled by service and length, which takes the guesswork out of booking: 30-amp water/electric/sewer at 30 feet, 50/30-amp at 43 feet, premium 50-amp at 45 feet, and premium 50-amp sites with a private hot tub at 45 feet. All carry water, sewer, and electric with cable TV, site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, and a community fire pit round it out, and pets are welcome. An outdoor pool, hot tub and sauna, mini-golf, a clubhouse, sport courts, basketball, pickleball, horseshoes, and corn hole fill the grounds, and a beach with kayak and boat rentals puts guests onto the water for swimming, boating, and paddling. Soap Lake sits in the Columbia Basin of central Washington, a mineral-rich lake of a type found in only one other place in the world, with Dry Falls, Steamboat Rock, and Banks Lake nearby. Rates for every site type are on the booking page. The hot tub sites are limited and go first.

Winchester RV Resort

14 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 9 Tent Sites

Winchester RV Resort in Republic, Washington, offers 14 RV sites, five cabins, and four tent sites among mature maple, willow, and pine in Ferry County, with 30 and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted up to 113 feet — a rare length allowance for a small, wooded property. Buddy sites, a game room, and direct Ferry County Rail Trail access round it out. Fourteen sites run from 30/50-amp back-ins to standard and deluxe 30/50-amp pull-throughs, including buddy sites for parties traveling together, all carrying water, sewer, and electric and sized to 113 feet, with picnic tables. Five cabins and trailer rentals serve guests arriving without a rig, and four tent sites cover simpler camping. A general store, propane fills, laundry, dump station, RV storage, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout. One vehicle per site; extra vehicles are $5 per night. A one-time non-refundable pet fee of $25 applies. The mature tree canopy is the distinguishing feature — genuine shade that the exposed campgrounds on the Columbia Plateau below cannot offer. A playground, dog park, game room, community fire pit, and walking trails fill the grounds, with a lake on the property and hiking, biking, and horseshoes from camp. Off-roading is nearby. Pets are welcome. Republic sits in the Okanogan Highlands of northeastern Washington, with the Ferry County Rail Trail running directly from the resort and the Colville National Forest surrounding it. The town's early-twentieth-century mining heritage still shapes the area. The resort serves one of the Pacific Northwest's least-visited corners. Summer rail-trail cycling and fall color drive demand — reserve ahead for both.

Black Beach Resort

53 RV Sites, 14 Cabins

Black Beach Resort in Republic, WA, offers full-hookup RV sites carrying water, sewer, and electric, with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table at each site. Sites are back-ins and the resort is rated big rig friendly. Contact them for site count, amp service, and maximum rig length, since those specifics aren't published here. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, and cabins cover the practical side. Pets are welcome. The lakefront is the draw: a beach, boat docks, sport courts, volleyball, a playground, and walking trails, with swimming, boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, water sports, fishing, hiking, biking, and picnicking on Curlew Lake. Republic sits on the southwestern shore of Curlew Lake in Ferry County, in the Okanogan Highlands where the Kettle River Range's forested ridges meet the 1.1 million acres of the Colville National Forest. The Sherman Pass Scenic Byway crosses just south — the highest maintained pass in Washington. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. Call ahead to confirm your rig's fit; this corner of Washington is remote enough that arriving to a surprise is costly.

Whispering Pines RV Campground

71 RV Sites

Whispering Pines RV Campground in Cle Elum, Washington, offers 71 RV sites across 60 acres in the Cascade foothills, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 120 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. River back-in and full-hookup categories in both water-and-electric and water-electric-sewer versions join pull-through tiers, with a clubhouse, beach, and general store. Seventy-one sites span back-in water-and-electric 30/50-amp, back-in water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp, pull-thru water-and-electric 30/50-amp, pull-thru water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp, and river back-in water-and-electric 30/50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 120 feet. The category names spell out exactly which utilities you get, which is unusually plain and genuinely useful. One hundred twenty feet accommodates anything on the road. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. A lake, pond, river, and beach support fishing and swimming, with a clubhouse, walking trails, playground, and dog park filling the rest. Pets are welcome. Directions: from westbound I-90 take Exit 84 and turn left at the stop sign, two-tenths of a mile to the park; from eastbound, Exit 84 then east on 1st Street to Oakes Avenue and right. The store runs 9am onward May through September. Cle Elum sits at the eastern approach to Snoqualmie Pass, where western Washington's evergreens give way to Kittitas County ponderosa. Summer is peak. Reserve well ahead.

Gallagher Lake Camping & RV Resort

89 RV Sites, 11 Cabins

Gallagher Lake Camping and RV Resort in Oliver, British Columbia, offers 89 RV sites and 11 cabins on a spring-fed lake in the South Okanagan, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 83 feet, open all year. Voyageur full service categories — including cable and a no-pets option — join a partial service tier, with a private sandy beach and pickleball courts. Eighty-nine sites span Voyageur full service, Voyageur full service 50-amp, Voyageur full service with cable, Voyageur full service no pets allowed, and Voyageur partial service categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 83 feet. Two things worth knowing: the partial service category does not carry the full hookup set, and there is a dedicated no-pets section for guests with allergies or a preference for quiet. Eighty-three feet accommodates the longest coaches. Eleven cabins round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, and recycling handle the practical side. A private sandy beach on the spring-fed lake anchors the recreation, with sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, horseshoes, walking, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, dog park, and picnicking filling the rest. Wine tasting and golf courses are close, along with Tickleberry's, the Golden Mile Fruit Market, and Vaseaux Lake. Oliver calls itself the Wine Capital of Canada, set in the only recognized desert ecosystem in the country. Summer and harvest drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Granite Point Resort

Granite Point Resort occupies 28 acres of Loon Lake shoreline in eastern Washington's Stevens County, offering lakeside sites and accommodations with a beach, boat rentals, a general store, and on-site dining. A recreation center, game room, and sports courts round out a self-contained summer destination in the inland Northwest. Lakeside sites and accommodations serve guests across a range of formats. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. On-site dining covers meals, which matters at a resort where guests tend to settle in for a week rather than an overnight. The lake frontage carries the recreation. A beach gives direct swimming access, boat rentals put guests on the water, and boating, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boats all run from the property. A recreation center and game room handle indoor hours, with sports courts, pickleball, basketball, volleyball, and horseshoes outdoors and a playground for families. The programming is well-rounded enough that guests rarely need to leave. Pets are welcome. Loon Lake sits in the ponderosa pine and mixed conifer country of northeastern Washington, among the clear glacially scoured lakes and quiet small towns of the inland Northwest — a summer retreat quite different in character from the Columbia River and Puget Sound destinations that draw the bulk of the state's visitors. The resort has built its reputation over many seasons as a family destination, and demand reflects that. Summer is decisively the peak, with returning families booking year to year — reserve well ahead for July and August.

Alderwood RV Resort

101 RV Sites

Alderwood RV Resort in Mead, Washington, offers 101 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service just north of Spokane, open all year. Deluxe back-in, premium pull-through, and deluxe pull-through categories join standard back-in and dry camp sites, with a recreation center, walking trails, and dog park. One hundred one sites span standard back-in, back-in deluxe, pull-thru deluxe, premium pull-thru, and dry camp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted on 30 and 50-amp. The dry camp tier gives self-contained rigs a lower rate — a useful option that many resorts do not offer. A laundry, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and RV storage handle the practical side. Check-in is 1pm and checkout 11am; contact the office about early arrivals or late departures, as fees may apply. A recreation center, walking trails, playground, and dog park with fenced pet areas fill the grounds. Skiing, a state park, and wine and beer tasting are all nearby, and the birding through the surrounding evergreen corridors is productive. Pets are welcome. Mead sits where the forested northern fringe of Washington's second-largest city gives way to the evergreen corridors and agricultural valleys of rural Spokane County — close enough to the city for dining, medical care, and the airport, far enough out for genuine natural surroundings. Year-round operation and nearby skiing make this viable well outside the summer window. Summer draws the heaviest demand, with the winter months serving snow travelers and extended stays. Reserve ahead for summer weekends.

Sun Retreats Birch Bay

271 RV Sites, 10 Tent Sites, 5 Onsite RV/Trailers

Sun Retreats Birch Bay in Blaine, Washington, offers 276 full-hookup RV sites and 10 tent sites two miles from the Canadian border, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet, open all year behind a gated entrance. Open and standard full-hookup back-in and pull-through categories join a pool, fitness center, disc golf course, and clubhouse. Two hundred seventy-six sites span full hookup back-in 50/30/20-amp, full hookup pull-thru 50/30/20-amp, open full hookup back-in 50/30/20-amp, and open full hookup pull-thru categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with picnic tables. The open categories give more space and light for guests who prefer it to a treed site. Ten tent sites round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. The property was formerly Beachwood RV Resort. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with a fitness center, clubhouse, disc golf course, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, golf cart rentals, a playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Biking, fishing, swimming, and picnicking round it out, with a golf course and a state park nearby. Pets are welcome. Birch Bay sits at the northernmost edge of Whatcom County, where Semiahmoo Bay and the protected waters of Drayton Harbor make a marine environment of unusual beauty. Birch Bay State Park adjoins the resort, and Vancouver is a short drive north. Summer is decisively the season in the Pacific Northwest. Reserve well ahead.

West Beach Resort

11 RV Sites, 21 Cabins, 10 Tent Sites, 9 Glamping Sites

West Beach Resort on Orcas Island, Washington, offers 11 RV sites, 21 cabins, 10 tent sites, and nine glamping sites on the island's rocky western shore, with 30-amp water-and-electric service and rigs accepted to 30 feet. A single 30-amp back-in category joins a marina, boat ramp, kayak rentals, hot tub, spa, and beach. Eleven back-in sites carry water and electric on 30-amp with site WiFi, sized to 30 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Two things to plan around carefully: the 30-foot cap rules out most modern coaches, so this suits vans and small trailers, and the sites carry water and electric rather than sewer — use the dump station. Twenty-one cabins, 10 tent sites, and nine glamping sites make this predominantly a cabin and tent property. A general store, laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, a snack bar, and a bar handle the practical side. A marina, boat ramp, boat docks, boat rentals, kayak rentals, and a fishing pier open the water for boating, paddle boats, paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving. A hot tub and sauna, spa, craft room, sports courts, volleyball, ping pong, horseshoes, walking trails, playground, and pond fill the rest, with exceptional birding and a state park nearby. Getting here: from I-5, take exit 230 for the San Juan Islands, follow Highway 20 west to the Anacortes ferry terminal, then sail to Orcas. Orcas is the largest of the San Juans and consistently tops Pacific Northwest island rankings. Summer is the season. Reserve as early as you can, and book the ferry too.

RV@Olympic

92 RV Sites

RV@Olympic in Port Angeles, WA, offers 92 RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 50 feet. Sites come in four categories — standard, premium, and luxury full-hookup back-ins carrying water, sewer, and electric, plus water-and-electric partial-hookup back-ins. Each has a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue. The park is rated big rig friendly. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, a clubhouse, WiFi, and a playground cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. Peak season runs May 1 through October 15, and the park takes bookings as far in advance as you'd like during those months. Walking trails, horseshoes, and genuinely dark peninsula sky for stargazing fill the grounds, with a beach nearby. Port Angeles sits at 191 Old Deer Park Road on the Olympic Peninsula's north shore, the gateway to Olympic National Park's three distinct ecosystems, across the Strait of Juan de Fuca from Vancouver Island. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Peak season on the peninsula books out well ahead — reserve early for summer.

Oceanside Camping & RV Resort

43 RV Sites

Oceanside Camping & RV Resort in Saanichton, British Columbia, offers 43 full-hookup RV sites on the Saanich Peninsula, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 80 feet. Voyageur Full Service categories in both 30A and 50A configurations sit on an award-winning beachside property open all year, 15 minutes from the Swartz Bay ferry terminal. Forty-three sites run in 30A and 50A Voyageur Full Service categories carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 80 feet, with picnic tables and site WiFi. Cabins round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, recycling, and a pet washing station handle the practical side — the amenity buildings are spotlessly clean and modern, and the year-round operation reflects southern Vancouver Island's mild climate. Walking trails run the property, with a community fire pit, sports courts, pickleball, shuffleboard, ping pong, a playground, and a dog park on the grounds. Swimming, biking, and birding run from the area, with a beach, boating, a golf course, and wineries nearby. Pets are welcome. The position is genuinely useful. Swartz Bay's BC Ferries terminal is 15 minutes away, Sidney 10, and Victoria 20 minutes south — which makes this practical for anyone arriving or departing by ferry. Butchart Gardens, the Victoria Butterfly Gardens, the BC Aviation Museum, Heritage Acres, the Lochside Regional Trail, and the Saanich Peninsula wineries are all close. Summer is decisively the season on Vancouver Island. Reserve well ahead.

Riffe Lake Campground

35 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 13 Tent Sites

Riffe Lake Campground in Mossyrock, Washington, offers 35 RV sites, five cabins, and 13 tent sites on Riffe Lake, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric back-in categories join kayak rentals, walking trails, and a general store between two volcanoes. Thirty-five back-in sites run in 30-amp, 30/50-amp, 30-amp water-and-electric, and 50-amp water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 60 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Group sites and rustic sites supplement the main inventory. Five cabins and 13 tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. The lake carries the recreation. Kayak rentals are available on site, with swimming, fishing, canoeing, and kayaking from the shoreline. Walking trails, hiking, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, and a playground fill the grounds. The position is genuinely rare. This privately owned Lewis County property sits within striking distance of both Mount Rainier and Mount St. Helens — a double-header of volcanic landmarks that is nearly impossible to match anywhere else in the continental United States. Guests can day-trip to one, then the other, from a single base on a scenic reservoir. Summer is decisively the season in the Cascades, when both mountain roads are reliably open and the lake is warm. Reserve well ahead for July and August, and check road status at both parks when planning shoulder-season stays.
