We stayed here again this year for our "week out" of the park that's closer to our family. It's a long drive from here to Everett, but there aren't many choices and this one's free for us as 30-year Leisure Time members (the name of this group of campgrounds before Thousand Trails purchased them). We struggled to find a spot that was long enough for us, but finally managed to get to one in the E section - it looks like they've recently done some grading of sites in there; lots of wood/tree debris pushed around. That section is entered with a very steep downhill part, but we managed OK in our 68' rig. Our site was fairly easy to back into, but not very level. We didn't use any of the amenities this time except the bathroom, and two of the centrally located bathrooms were closed - one had porta-potties outside. They have four others, one near the pool. It was some problem with the electricity, people were getting shocked in the showers! They had been dealing with the electric company for some time and not getting very far it seems. As mentioned before, this park is long and parallels the freeway, so expect some noise. It's fairly constant, which makes it like white noise. Lots of trees, it's a wooded, rustic experience. Sites are first-come, first served. Don't expect a sewer site, there are only 17 of those. They'll put you on a waiting list, but who wants to move once you're already set up? Just plan on using your own tanks and their bathrooms. The dump station is awkward for rigs as big as ours, we dumped at the rest area on I-5. Southbound there's one near Arlington and another near Marysville, with multiple dump lanes and easy access. Northbound, there's one just past the freeway entrance from the campground. You can actually see it from the campground if you hike around the perimeter trail. Drive out Bow Rd across the freeway and you can turn right at the Bow Post Office intersection at Hwy 11 and be on Chuckanut Drive. It's a nice drive with views of the water, and a state park. The drive ends in Bellingham, a nice place to explore. College town, so plenty of cheap and interesting places to eat and drink. - Denise and Glenn

We had previously stayed at this campground in Sept 2017 - it was quite rainy then, so we did not spend much time outside our rig. This time, we stayed only 2 days, but we had friends come to visit so we spend a good time outside the rig. Even though the traffic noise on I-5 was definitely noticeable, it wasn't so loud as to make conversation difficult outside the rig. - pattic777

Sep 2017 - $1.00

This campground is right along I-5, so although you cannot see it, you can hear traffic pretty continuously. Friends had cautioned us to have the windows down in the Jeep when we were selecting a site so we would hear whether the traffic noise was disturbing. We knew that the site had traffic noise, but thought that with the windows closed on the bus, we wouldn't hear it... it wasn't so loud as to be disruptive, but it was constant. The campground is very wooded and very long - if you select a site in the back, just driving in and out of the campground can take a while (at 5 MPH). Our nightly rate was $0 as Thousand Trails Family Courtesy Card holders. - pattic777

Oct 2018 - $1.00

New to RVing with a 30 foot TT. As others have said, if you have a longer rig, do NOT "just go down any street because there are no dead ends." As it is first-come-first-served, even in this off-season, the best sites may be taken by small RVs and in one case a site with sewer hookup was taken by a tent camper!!! We have stayed here twice as it is close and we are new to camping and have friends who come here all the time. Once you get in, it is quiet and you feel secluded which is nice if that's what you are looking for (which we are). It seems like a great camp for kids and pets. Our friends have both and usually stay in the spots near the one big open area. There's also the beach to explore too, and of course, going into town is a short drive. Do not expect cell service. While there is likely good service for any of the carriers somewhere in the park, where there isn't good service, there is almost no service. For example, there is about a 100-foot stretch that I found 5 bars of Sprint 4G-LTE and even started streaming a Netflix show to verify. However, the rest of the park I am roaming with only 1-2 bars and can't even get a Facebook feed to refresh. My friends have other carriers and while the "good spot" is different for each, it's the same general story. Wifi is only available at the club-house. Especially during the off-season, you should be able to find a spot. It may not be where or what you expected, but it will be adequate. Maintenance is adequate, and cleanliness is adequate. Hard to navigate larger rigs. I recommend walking around to find a spot. Our first time, after several close calls, once settled we strolled the park looking for potential spots for the next time. This made the second visit here MUCH easier. It must be said that the pump stations (there are three lanes) are convenient and easy to access/use and there are grey water dumps near the restrooms throughout the park. - MilesKB

Jul 2018 - $1.00

The park is about 12 miles off of I-5. It does have views of the bay from near the pool, laundry and store which was the only place we could get Verizon cell service. Were only able to get a few channels OTA which pixelated and most of the time unwatchable. The site was a back in and heavily shaded. Some of the campers have more than the allotted number of vehicles so there are tight squeezes getting down some of the roads. - mrracechaser

May 2018 - $1.00

We are Thousand Trails members and the price is included in our annual membership fee. If you like woodsy settings this campground is for you, though it was a bit dark for us. Only a few of the sites have a sewer though all have electricity and water. The sewer sites are off to the right (west) as you come into the campground. It is heavily treed with a few open spots. In fact, when you arrive, they tell you which sites which are open and would be good for satellite. Our site was mostly level but some sites might pose a challenge. The utilities worked fine. There was a picnic table ( please bring a table cloth - the tables are old) and a fire pit at each site. The bathrooms were extremely clean (something I've come to expect from TT), the rangers very friendly, there were several large grassy areas for kids to play on. There are 3 pickle ball courts. There is a rocky beach to walk on. The speed limit is 5 mph and why people go faster than this in a campground with lots of kids is beyond me. - swike

This is a very nice national park campground. The sites are big and lots of shade. Great area to visit. No hookups, Water is available at the dump station. Kind of the opposite of a parking lot RV park. - Russell G

Jul 2017 - $16.00

Paved pads, mostly shaded sites, peaceful. No WiFi, but Verizon 4G signal was good. Beautiful old growth forest surroundings, North Cascades National Park Visitor onsite, amphitheatre nearby, easy trails in campground, pretty waterfall nearby. No one there to check you in, so if you reserved just go to your site. If you need a site go up to the Visitor Center. Only issue with sites is the inner loop pull-through sites are set up backwards for most motorhomes/trailers. - jmholton

July 22,23 Newhalem Creek Campground (NPS) in North Cascades National Park, Washington, Site 31, 116 sites, $8 with Golden Age Pass, Dump Station, no hookups but water is available, bathhouses but no showers I really liked this National Park Campground located in the North Cascades National Park. There are four loops. A & B are on one side of the road and C & Group sites are on the other. We had site 31 in the B loop and it was my favorite loop because it was smaller and very quiet. Trails led off the loop to the Visitor Center and the River Loop Trail. A and B are reservation only and if available. The C loop was burned down in a fire in 2015 and just opened up five days ago on first come first serve. You can still see the burned trees but the wildflowers were in bloom and just stunning surrounding the sites. Next year the whole campground will be reservation only. The sites are spaced apart from each other and they are huge. We were able to back up and then the picnic table, firepit and two huge spots on sand platforms for tents were in the woods. There are hiking trails from the campground to the Visitor Center, town, river walk and other trails throughout the park. The hosts were very helpful with ideas of what to see and do. There were ranger talks every night we were there. This campground is the largest and busiest in the park and right off scenic route 20 next to the town of Newhalem. The history of this park is fascinating and the exhibits at the Visitor Center is a good place to start. - gsnakehill

Heavily forested campground, therefore pretty dark. The sites are small (few exceptions) and placed awkwardly. Most are unlevel. Some are just a pullout from the loop road. However, due to the trees and shrubbery there is some privacy. Water taps are around. We stayed here after Labor Day, so one loop was closed already and the other was almost completely occupied. We'll try another location when traveling through the area next time. - TheSchweitzers

Jul 2016 - $7.00

Typical Forest Service campground with spacious sites and a few unruly people. The campground fills by Thursday and there are no other campgrounds within short distance of this one. The restroom near the lake front sites was being worked on so substituting were some portable out houses. Amphitheater presentations were worthwhile. Some great site seeing within short driving distance. - Doug Toye

Jun 2015 - $6.00

It was beautiful, the trees were thick, but not made for larger RVs unless you look closely at the map before you reserve. Find one that is WIDE, not so narrow we could barely get out of our RV. This is a tenters paradise. Plus it was bloody hot and with no electricity, we had to leave. - Dr. Hemlock

We were looking for a campground that would be convenient to hiking on the western side of the North Cascades National Park. We're self contained and don't use the facilities. We stayed for 5 days in August, including a weekend, in our 25 foot MH. This is a very nice small campground. There's a main campground and 2 remote group sites. The main campground has 21 sites, sites 7-14 are along the Skagit River. The other sites are closer to the North Cascades Highway and get some road noise during the day although there's little traffic at night. The sites are good sized and heavily wooded providing shade and privacy, and few opportunities for solar panels. Many need some leveling. There is no WiFi. There's good Verizon and a hint of AT&T cell coverage. The campground is clean and well maintained. All sites are first come first served. We arrived late on a Wednesday and found a site. The campground did fill over the weekend. This campground is less than a mile from Newhalem campground which is similar yet larger with more activity. Loops A&B at Newhalem take reservations while Loop C is first come first serve. - dsvt

This is an excellent place to spend the night. I had tried to get reservations somewhere in the area, and stopped at a couple of places which had no room. This park doesn't take reservations a far as I know, but was about half full, when we got there, but filled mostly up by night. Electric and Water and good wi-fi to use with our xfinity account. The camp host was super nice, in a nice park with kids playing. - Russell G

Clean park with access to the river. Quiet area and a very safe area. No dump or sewer hookups but does have water and electricity. A nice 45 minute drive to the North Cascades National Park. Climb the stairs to the restrooms but I didn't go there so I can not share any info on the restrooms. We would definitely stay here again. Good cell LTE service on Verizon and wifi thru our cable provider from Florida using our log on information but also can purchase wifi if needed. - RVing Across America

Plain and simple RV sites at the city park. Full hookups including 50 amp service but the sewer connection is only on site 5. There's a total of 5 sites, each parallel to each other in a paved parking lot with only a painted line between each site. There's enough room to extend sliders but not much more. If you want to set up chairs, the whole park is available and it's a very nice park. There's room to walk the dog, have a picnic or just sit in the shade. Overall, a decent site and we'd stay here again if we needed an in-transit site. - fruffiii

Aug 2018 - $47.00

Rate of $47/night includes 10% KOA discount and additional $25 discount for rewards points. Site was a gravel pull-thru that was level and had a concrete patio with picnic table and a fire pit. The site was FHU with 50 amps. The park WiFi was iffy. We had good Verizon cell reception but very weak internet reception. We had good DishTV satellite reception. The park has a narrow gated entry/exit access road and a very narrow bridge that leads to the big rig sites. The sites are nice, but the price is a negative factor. - Dave51

Jun 2018 - $51.00

Despite # of calls, they didn't tell us about the road closure. Major changes since our last visit, have expanded park, upgraded facilities. Always enjoyed camping amidst the tall trees, and picking blackberries out by the creek. Bit taken back by all the security and rules; obviously reacting to some prior events. Had we had our family visit as in prior years, it would have been difficult. - RetiredUSN

Sep 2017 - $45.00

There are two sections to this park. We only needed 30 amp and were put in the older section which, unlike the new section, has trees and shade but also has very close sites that are a mixture of gravel and dirt with brown/green grass. The water and sewer were fine but the power was poor. If we used the AC or microwave, we needed to run the hot water tank and refrig on propane. If two draw items were used, i.e. hot water and microwave, etc., the voltage dipped into the red, well below 110. The park was far from full, but we were placed next to a long term tenant while there were 4 empty sites on the other side of us. We would stay again if we had to, but we would bite the bullet and stay in the 30/50 amp sites and pay the extra. - Bob and Pat

This campground is only available for racing events at the speedway, a banked dirt oval. You are parked in one of three fields on grass; some areas level, some not, bring lumber. You can arrive on Friday night for the Saturday races at no extra charge but the rate does double for the multi day events such as the World of Outlaws which we attended. There is water available to fill your tank if your arrive dry. The restrooms at the track are kept open for camper use and chemical toilets and garbage bins are placed through out. This all makes for an inexpensive enjoyable camping weekend if you enjoy racing as we do. I estimated 220 spaces, but there is plenty of space so no one is turned away; you just would have to walk a few more feet. - Procarver
