Twenty-Nine Pines Campground

A beautiful natural area near a river but not on it. You'll need to walk a little bit to get to the babbling water, but that's okay as it isn't far. Tall pine trees, fir trees, some meadow-like areas, neat rocks to look at as you meander around the roads or paths. Plenty of room for car, tent, or small self-contained RV camping. Porta-potties available, but no washrooms or showers. Picnic tables... A beautiful natural area near a river but not on it.

Porta-potties available, but no washrooms or showers. Picnic tables yes, but no fires permitted due to fire danger and also remote location. Love this area, had fun here! Just remember your WA state discovery pass.

We spent four full days at 29 Pines campground recently. We enjoyed our time there although there are some details that anyone going there should be aware of. First, its dispersed camping which means there is no garbage service or water. So plan to bring everything with you and take your garbage home. The toilets are adequate however during the our stay they REALLY needed to be pumped out. The... We spent four full days at 29 Pines campground recently. We enjoyed our time there although there are some details that anyone going there should be aware of. First, its dispersed camping which means there is no garbage service or water. So plan to bring everything with you and take your garbage home. The toilets are adequate however during the our stay they REALLY needed to be pumped out. They were pumped out the day before we left in time for the 4th of July week. The tables are older but adequate with some in need of repairs. And the road through the campground is full of potholes and rough, which makes abiding the 5 MPH speed limit very easy! That said, this campground is close to a wide variety of excellent hiking and there is hiking access to the Alpine Lakes area as well. Esmeralda basin trail has amazing wildflowers when in season, and terrific views year round. It's also possible to see mountain goats at the higher elevations. The road to the campground is paved, so no dust from that road, although there could be some from the camp road. The sites are well separated and they are quite large. You will need a Washington State Discover Pass to stay in this campground but there is no other charge beyond the Discover Pass, which is good in many places. As far as RV size, there were 35+ foot fifth wheels and very large Class A motorhomes which were comfortably parked in the campground. Smaller trailers, Class C motorhomes, tents and truck campers all fit this campground with no problem. Going slow on the campground road is the key for making it in and out successfully. So if you want dispersed camping close to great hiking with large well placed sites, 29 Pines campground is the place to go.
