About Washington

Rainforest on one side of the mountains, sagebrush on the other, Washington is really two states sharing a border along the Cascade crest, and RVers get to work both. The Olympic Peninsula's wild Pacific coastline, Mount Rainier's glaciers, the ferry-laced waters of Puget Sound with the San Juan Islands beyond: the western headliners alone can fill a season. RV parks sit close to all of it, staged along the routes that connect Olympic National Park, Mount Rainier National Park, and the Sound.

West of the Cascades, the maritime climate does the landscaping: heavy rainfall, moss-draped forest, green in every direction. Coastal towns like Port Angeles (and Astoria, just across the Columbia) make good staging points, and the Hoh Rainforest rewards anyone willing to drive out to the wet side of the peninsula. Cross the mountains and everything flips: sun, dry hills, the Columbia River Gorge, Spokane's city amenities, and wine country spreading around Walla Walla and Yakima. Two climates, one state, and a completely different camping trip in each.

Accommodations run the full spectrum: private resorts with every hookup and amenity, state park campgrounds, and Forest Service and National Park Service sites where the amenities are trees and quiet. Full hookups are common; primitive sites are there for those who want them. The highway network holds it all together: US-101 loops the Olympic Peninsula, I-90 crosses the mountains, and the scenic byways in between handle rigs of all sizes with less drama than the terrain suggests.

Hookup Availability

Most private RV parks and many state/federal campgrounds offer full hookups (water, sewer, electric) or partial hookups (water, electric). Dry camping options are also widely available in national forests and some state parks.

Big-Rig Access

Washington generally accommodates big rigs, especially on major highways and newer private parks. Always check specific park information regarding site length, width, and maneuverability, particularly in older state or national park campgrounds.

Seasonal Considerations

Summer (June-August) is peak season with high demand; expect full parks and require advanced reservations. Some western Washington locations can host snowbirds in milder winters, but eastern and mountain areas are often inaccessible due to snow.

Reservation Lead Time

For popular destinations like national parks, coastal areas, and holiday weekends, reservations should be made 6-12 months in advance. Many state park campsites can be reserved up to 9 months ahead.

Monthly/Seasonal Rates

Many private RV parks offer discounted monthly or seasonal rates, especially during off-peak periods. Inquire directly with individual parks for availability and pricing on extended stays.

Diverse Weather

Be prepared for varied weather. Western Washington is known for rain and cooler temperatures, while Eastern Washington can experience hot, dry summers and cold, snowy winters. Mountain weather is highly unpredictable year-round.

Confirm current requirements with the state agency before your trip. Rules and fees change every season.

  • RV Registration and Licensing

    All motorhomes and towed RVs must be properly registered with their home state and display valid license plates. Drivers must possess a valid driver's license appropriate for the vehicle class they are operating.

  • Washington State Discover Pass

    Access to Washington State Parks and other state-managed recreation lands requires a Discover Pass, which can be purchased annually or daily. This pass is separate from campground fees and provides access to millions of acres of recreation land.

  • Firewood Restrictions

    To prevent the spread of invasive pests and diseases, Washington State Parks and some federal lands restrict bringing outside firewood. It is recommended to buy firewood locally or gather dead and downed wood where permitted.

  • Waste Disposal

    Proper disposal of grey and black water is mandatory. Utilize designated dump stations at RV parks or public facilities. Discharging wastewater onto the ground is illegal and harmful to the environment.

  1. 01

    Identify Your Desired Experience

    Coast, mountains, city, or wine country, in Washington those are four different climates, not just four different views. Decide which trip you're taking and the map narrows itself.

  2. 02

    Research RV Parks & Campgrounds

    Cross-check directories and state park sites against your rig's real dimensions and your hookup needs. Reviews earn their keep here, they're where you find out about the site that's ten feet shorter than advertised.

  3. 03

    Secure Reservations Well in Advance

    Summer dates near the national parks and the coast are claimed 6-12 months out. Book as soon as your plans exist; the popular loops don't hold spots for the spontaneous.

  4. 04

    Plan Your Route & RV Logistics

    Mountain passes, long gaps between fuel stops, and roads that narrow without warning, map the drive with your rig's dimensions in mind, not just the mileage.

  5. 05

    Obtain Necessary Passes & Supplies

    Pick up a Discover Pass if state parks are on the itinerary, pack for two climates, and plan to buy firewood near where you'll burn it, hauling it across the state is how pests hitch rides.

01How many RV parks are listed in Washington?
RV Park Hubs lists 27 RV parks in Washington: full-hookup resorts, long-term resident parks, and overnight campgrounds across the state.
02What types of RV parks are available in Washington?
The full range: private resorts with full hookups, pools, and Wi-Fi at one end, and rustic state and national park campgrounds with water spigots and vault toilets at the other. Geographically you can park near the big cities, on the coast, up in the mountains, or out in wine country, the state covers all of it.
03Do I need reservations for RV parks in Washington?
In summer, absolutely, June through August the popular state and national park campgrounds book out months ahead, and weekends and holidays go first. Private parks sometimes hold last-minute space, but treating reservations as optional is how Washington trips fall apart.
04Are there options for large RVs and motorhomes?
Yes, most private parks and many newer state park campgrounds handle big rigs comfortably, often with pull-through sites and 50-amp service. The exceptions are older campgrounds and remote sites where loops were laid out for smaller rigs; when in doubt, call and ask for actual site dimensions.
05Can I find long-term or monthly RV sites?
Many private parks across the state offer monthly or seasonal rates, usually at a healthy discount off the daily price and most available outside peak summer. Contact parks directly, extended-stay inventory rarely shows up in online booking engines.
06What are the best times of year for RV camping in Washington?
Summer (June-August) buys the most reliable weather everywhere, at the cost of crowds and competitive bookings. Spring and fall are quieter and often gorgeous, with the caveat that the west side gets rainy. Winter works in the milder western lowlands, where some parks cater specifically to cold-season stays.
07Are pets allowed in Washington RV parks and campgrounds?
Nearly everywhere, with the standard terms: leashed, supervised, cleaned up after. A minority of parks restrict breeds or cap the number of animals, so check the policy for your specific park before you arrive with the whole pack.
