This is a very nice RV park and the staff is super helpful. We stayed there as we didn't have much luck with our spot at Deception Pass. Would definitely stay at North Whidbey again. Nice and quiet too...except for the jets.

Probably the best thing about this park is the location. Very close to the Deception Pass state park which is great. Clean facilities as well. But what turned me off from this park and why I won’t be returning is the Rules. I understand that for the comfort for all guests basic rules will need to be instated.

Very close to the Deception Pass state park which is great. Clean facilities as well. But what turned me off from this park and why I won’t be returning is the Rules. I understand that for the comfort for all guests basic rules will need to be instated. But if you stay here, expect the rule book to be constantly thrown into your face (well email box), even when the violations are not your own! I had received a call from the park manager regarding a carpet I put down by the front door of my RV. I was told that putting carpets on the grass, even though the grass was dead, is a direct violation of the rules that I signed when I checked in. Okay, we rolled up the carpet. The rest of the stay my email box was bombarded with 2+ emails a day from management pointing out small violations people are committing and how it’s a direct violation of the rules that we all signed when we checked in. These emails even continued after we checked out for a few days. I’m a huge believer of Letter of the Law vs Spirit of the Law. Yes all these emails did correlate with actual rules that where broken, and we did sign those rules at check in as continually pointed out. But Id like a little bit of latitude on putting my carpet on the dead grass to make the outside of the RV more comfortable to utilize. Every time we got an email it’s that feeling of “oh god what do we have to go back and fix” until we read through it and find it’s probably referencing someone else in the park. Really adds unneeded stress to a trip.

We had a great experience here! Spots are very clean, the park is great for the kids. The bathrooms were really clean and have hot showers. Affordable rates for longer stays and military discounts. The staff was super helpful and friendly. There is a big gazebo for entertaining friends while we stayed, and parking area for extra cars. Highly recommend this place!

I’ve never met her before and she knew my name she gave me a set of rules that I signed a piece of paper. She showed me where my campsite was. I am parked My truck and detached the trailer RV because The site pad was too short for both truck and trailer attached. Shortly after I proceeded to pass out for my brain needed rejuvenating from the long journey . When I woke up saw her smiling face again and she asked me if I read the rules about not parking on the grass and I sadly said no, she offered me another location , and was extremely helpful! I love her and her husband Leo, and their kind helpful spirit. Great to have good hosts and such a beautiful park and location! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your help. It was a great experience for my first visit to Washington!!
