About Jarrell Cove State Park Campground
Campground in Washington.
Nestled in the heart of Washington's beautiful Puget Sound region, Jarrell Cove State Park Campground offers RV travelers an exceptional escape into Pacific Northwest nature. Located on the scenic island community of Harstine Island, this waterfront destination provides the perfect blend of tranquility and outdoor adventure for families, couples, and nature enthusiasts seeking a memorable camping experience.
The campground sits along the peaceful shores of Jarrell Cove, a protected marine inlet known for its calm waters and stunning natural beauty. The serene waterfront setting creates an ideal backdrop for morning coffee, sunset viewing, and evening relaxation. Whether you're watching sailboats glide across the water or listening to the gentle lapping of waves against the shore, the cove's natural charm sets the tone for a restorative getaway.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the state park offers excellent opportunities for water activities and exploration. The protected cove waters are ideal for boating, fishing, and kayaking, making it a fantastic destination for those who want to enjoy marine recreation without venturing into rougher open waters. The park's natural shoreline and forested areas provide wonderful settings for hiking, beachcombing, and wildlife observation. Local waters are home to various marine life, and you might spot seals, sea otters, and a variety of seabirds during your stay.
The location on Harstine Island puts you perfectly positioned to explore the wider Puget Sound region. The island community itself offers a quieter, more residential atmosphere compared to mainland destinations, yet remains accessible to the greater Pacific Northwest. Nearby towns provide essential services, local dining, and shopping opportunities for those moments when you want to venture beyond the campground.
The area appeals particularly to RV travelers seeking a peaceful waterfront experience without the hustle and bustle of larger resort destinations. It's ideal for those who value natural beauty, outdoor recreation, and the restorative power of being near the water. With its high guest ratings and reputation for cleanliness and natural appeal, Jarrell Cove State Park Campground represents an excellent choice for your Washington camping adventure.

VERY well maintained campground with 2 docks. A Discovery pass is needed but definitely worth it. They have shower facilities too. There are also hiking trails that are very beautiful. Very quiet during the week. Enjoy!

Get out your, compass and map because this 8s a little known off the beaten path gem of a spot to be amongst nature and wildlife. Harstine island is a remote island just outside of Shelton, Wa with a deer population that out numbers the residents 5 to 1.

Get out your, compass and map because this 8s a little known off the beaten path gem of a spot to be amongst nature and wildlife. Harstine island is a remote island just outside of Shelton, Wa with a deer population that out numbers the residents 5 to 1. So be mindful as you drive over the Harstine Island Bridge to this hidden gem, being careful to watch for the borderline domesticated deer. There are many! But dont go feeding the wildlife! Once you arrive you will find a small but well maintained resort with public bathrooms, campsites and rv hookups. There is the Spencer Lake Bar and Grill restaurant and gas station/store a mile or so before the bridge that boasts, great pizza, cocktails and dancing, with gas, propane diesel and other amenities across the street. So take a weekend and check out Jarrell Cove State Park and Spencer Lake Bar and Grill next time your in the Mason County zip code. You wont be disappointed!

I love camping at this place, the bathrooms are clean and showers are free. There are little paths and 2 docks. Very lovely small campsite. but there were so many squirrels or chipmunks trying to get our food. We had to put our food in the tent when we were gone and they got into our trash overnight so bring a tub for food

A nice quiet place to hang camp. It wasn't very busy when we were there. The deer were walking around eating the apples from the apple trees. There are a couple hiking trails around the park
