What Guests Are Saying
Washington Lake Campground is highly praised for its beautiful location, excellent access to hiking trails, and well-maintained facilities. Camp hosts are friendly and diligent, contributing to a clean and enjoyable camping experience. While some sites are close to the lake, there are concerns about noise from generators and the lack of running water; however, the overall ambiance and recreational opportunities make it a preferred destination for many campers.

CG was great. Sites were paved and bathroom was very clean. There is NO water or electricity , but the host keeps everything clean!! Very quiet and night skies were epic.
You have access the trailhead from the CG. Soooo many lakes to see - Ibantik Lake with the added Clyde Lake loop - easily 18 plus lakes - not mud holes actual lakes!
Lots to explore here.

Campsites are closers together than some campgrounds, but parking driveways are paved, with concrete under picnic tables and nice fire rings. Bathroom seemed fine for a vault toilet. Campground is mostly used by people with camp trailers and RVs. Great location between lakes, lots of hiking nearby.

Site hosts, The Graces, were outstanding.
Toilets were very clean.
Surprised the was no water available, but was easily obtained at the next campsite up the road which also had a dump site which I did not need.

The campground is excellent. Paved sites, great fire pit and tables. The restrooms were exceptionally clean during our 2 August visits. The camp hosts were quite friendly.

I have been to mini campgrounds and this is definitely the most beautiful of them all. Very good access for my 39 ft gooseneck RV.
