Wide open campground, with not trees. Our campsite, #28 gets the first shade. Thanks to the Senior WA Winter Camping Pass, a site with electricity is only $10 per night.

Wide open campground, with not trees. Our campsite, #28 gets the first shade. Thanks to the Senior WA Winter Camping Pass, a site with electricity is only $10 per night. The campsite is only a 10 minute walk to the ferry terminal for visiting Port Townsend. The gun battery installations are fascinating and so well preserved. Lots of history here. We spent 3 days over in Port Townsend seeing the sites there. I was very happy with the campground and even though it is wide open, we didn't feel privacy was an issue as there aren't alot of campers this time of year. Joan, the camp host is the best!

I've been coming to Fort Casey for multiple decades, starting long before the campground was here. This campground was one of my folks favorite places when they retired. There's essentially no shade until an hour or so before sunset, depending on your site. In addition to the beach and the fort, ferry watching can be fun. One of the things I noted on this trip is that the ferry no longer blows its horn on departure (unless there's a kayak in the way) and that the ferry seems to be much quieter than they used to be.
This park is VERY popular and reservations are required to have any hope of getting a spot during the summer season.
The BUT... Washington has a policy of adding an out-of-state fee for any visitors (native Washingtonian or not) who have an out-of-state address. By the time you add the reservation fee and the out of state fee, the dry site cost $45. It was only because of the easy access to the ferry and the ability to avoid Seattle traffic at any cost that I was willing to pay their inflated fee.

Fort Casey offers camping within walking distance of the Coupeville/Pt. Townsend ferry. Sites are also just a short walk from the beach, the remains of historic Ft. Casey, and Admiralty Head Lighthouse. The beach and Ft. Casey are both leashed-dog friendly. We enjoyed our stay and would love to come again, although it takes some advance planning. All spaces are reservable and reservations are a must during the summer; the campground is popular and was completely full during our entire stay.
Sites are split between no hook-ups or water/electric. No dump site is available at the campground. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Water spigots are situated around the campground including a threaded one specifically for RV use. There are both pull-through and back-in sites. Price varies from $32 - $45/night based on popularity and hook-ups. Sites are spacious, but there is no vegetation or privacy between sites. The views from the waterfront sites are spectacular. The bathhouse has coin-operated showers, so bring your quarters. Bathrooms are no-frills, but clean.
This isn’t the quietest campground we’ve stayed at. Ferry traffic (foghorns!) can be a bit loud – although the schedule is reasonable with ferry runs starting most days around 7am and ending around 9:30pm. The F-18 Hornets flying out of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station were extremely loud, luckily only a few training flights were scheduled during our stay.
We had 3 bars of Verizon 4G.

Great spot, very popular. Open year-round. Very convenient to walk on the ferry to Port Townsend to explore. Plenty to do and see right from camp, checking out the old military fort.

We stayed here last June. Dry camping sites and sites with water and electricity. Long beautiful beach to walk on and campsites are spacious! Website said our 42ft wouldn't fit, so when I booked the site I just clicked on the largest RV they offered on that drop down menu. There was plenty of space and others that were just as big as ours. The campground host was very friendly and helpful and kept the place neat and tidy. We would definitely go back and have recommended this Campground to others already.

Fort Casey State Park is another interesting location on Whidbey Island. It's a much larger WWII gunnery emplacement which has since been converted into a state park. The old fortress structures and...
