Lake Pleasant RV Park

We recently stayed here to visit the surrounding area and it was a great choice. The area surrounding the RV park is quite upscale with a new Safeway grocery store across the street. Easy access to the I-405 so you can zip down to Seattle. We went to the Boeing tour and downtown Seattle, all within 30 minutes away. We did avoid rush hour so those times may change if not off hours. Our site backed to the lake but was sloped towards the lake. The front of our airstream was pretty close to the ground to get level. All in all, this is a great option for visiting the Seattle area. If we come to the area again, we will be staying here.

Nabbed the very last spot only a couple of days beforehand. Reservations people were friendly and the process was easy. I wish they had a website with at least a map of the camp sites. Bathrooms were clean, though we didn't use the showers. Seemed to be mostly full-timers here. Our spot was next to the lake and by the lake fountain and was indeed quite pleasant. Tall shrubs separated us from our neighbors. We arrived just after dark, and our best tip for you is to watch out for the duck poop! Most of the sites looked to be angled back-in sites.

We live in the area and were here for a test camp in our new trailer, so we didn't stay more than one night, but we'd consider it as a long stay possibility when we need to vacate our house for an upcoming remodel.

Another tip: The iPhone map app sent us through smaller roads to get here, which was completely unnecessary. Don't let your nav system take you via SR-522, take I-405 straight to SR-525.

Just a couple of blocks away is Bothell Country Village, which is a super-cute and quaint shopping area, good for kids too.

This was a good location to Seattle but still could be an hours drive depending on traffic.
There's a lot of care put into this park. The landscaping, the laundry facilities were well kept. The bathrooms were clean but dated. Trash cans everywhere and picked up frequently. Roads and sites were also kept in good condition.
Pros:

1. Immaculate grounds
2. Nice walking trails
3. Some privacy between sites with hedges
4. Good location to shops/activities
5. Great cell signal unboosted (ATT 60+ mbps, Verizon 8+)
6. Excellent laundry (lots of machines) with change machine and only $1 for wash and $1 for dry
7. Friendly staff/residents

Cons:

1. Sites not level even with jacks
2. Pricey (expected for the area)
3. Wifi was not really usable for me
4. Small sites

This is our second stay here. Our son plays tournament ball and we stayed here for his tournament in Everett. Only a 20 minute drive from the park.

The sites are very well maintained, with quite a large amount permanent campers. The bathroom/ shower facilities are very nice, as well as the laundry facility. The sites are all paved with picnic tables. We stayed at a site on the lake. There are several sites that are not on the lake, as well as pull throughs. There aren't any fire pits and portable wood burning fire pits are not allowed as the park is built on a peat bog. You can use a propane fire pit.

If you're looking for a place with full hookups that is relatively close to Seattle, this isn't a bad choice. It's tucked away off the road, with lots of greenery and trees for privacy. The park encircles some ponds that are nice, and there is a hiking trail that runs around the perimeter of the park. There's also a nice little laundry facility.

The price is high, which is probably to be expected for the area. Also, many of the sites are narrow, although pull-throughs are available. The only other down side: when we were there during September 2015, spiders were quick to string up their webs around the campground, so just watch where you stick your hand when working on your rig!

This is a lovely campground, though, and we'd definitely stay here again.

This was in fact the nicest and most expensive RV Park we've ever stayed in. Unfortunately we may not be back. They said our custom conversion trailer was not up to their standards and we wouldn't be allowed in again. I guess that bodes well for the review if you're looking for a somewhat exclusive park. Bad if you're looking for something more laid back. I'm giving only 3 stars because I've never been turned away from a park before. Otherwise I'd give it 4.

We stayed here in the middle of January. Even in the winter the park was probably at 85% capacity. Most of the RV's looked like full timers with license plates from states around the US. Still, we had our choice of a few spots. We got a nice waterfront site. It was small but enclosed with an evergreen hedge.

Positives;

• quiet for a packed campground in an urban area
• charming, calming, lakeside sites
• very pet friendly
• full services and full hook-ups
• very well maintained.
• neighbors were all very friendly. not sure about the management.

Negatives;

• expensive
• too exclusive?
• not all sites are on the water and some aren't very level.
• crowded. they really pack them in

We have used this park once and plan to use it again for it's great location near Seattle and Woodinville. It is a bit expensive, yes, but for us it offers a reasonable place to stay near the city with our dogs. Although it is densely packed with sites, it sits in a forested "bowl" that blocks city noise and provides a soothing green surround. The surrounding hill offers several (short) dog walk options too. For a park close to an urban center, this is a great option.

We stayed here long term, and it was a clean, safe, friendly place for us. Its close to Seattle, but it's expensive and some of the sites are really close together and really unlevel. They've just crammed in as many as they could on the property. If you go, make sure to ask for a site on the lake close to the office -- they have the most trees and grass. There's laundry (but only a few machines so be prepared to wait), but they're dog friendly and generally it's peaceful.
