Washington State Parks are developed and maintained for the enjoyment of all persons, regardless of age, sex, creed, ethnic origin, or physical limitations. Most state parks are open year-round, but some close in winter. During the summer, campers may stay up to ten consecutive days in any one park. Between Oct. 1 and Apr. 30 the maximum length of stay is 20 days. Pets are allowed in campgrounds and day-use parks, but must be on a leash not more than 8 feet in length and under control at all times.
Owners are responsible for cleaning up after their animals.
Those state parks taking reservations are indicated in our listings. Washington's most popular state parks fill up fast, especially on weekends and holidays. Contact Reservations NW year-round for group camping between May 15 and September 15, and for Fort Canby throughout the year. Call Fort Worden directly for all group reservations. Environmental Learning Centers are also available for overnight, group gatherings.
