Well it was lovely. If you like raccoons it's a great park to camp at. Everything needs to be locked up in a car or something because the raccoons will get into it. But it was lovely and a cute park. Nice place to fish for salt water and fresh water or swimming or kayaking around. The shower's are coin operated if you want warm water. But you can take a cold shower all the time without coins that can be purchased at the front information place. Lovely colored book of fishing and waterways stuff.

This is a really nice park. You can walk the beach, picnic and bring your pups on a lease so they can enjoy the great outdoors too.

Absolutely beautiful views, lots of hiking trails, parking. Clean restrooms. Picnic tables. The hike around Penrose Point has the best view of Mt Rainier.

At the penrose point state park campground. It's a beautiful spot, not far from the cities. Quiet, peaceful, has a moorage dock for overnighting. This is a rustic campground with no hookups, bit has a dump station as you leave. Water and restroom/shower building are scattered throughout the campground. Partially open year round. There are trials to hike, and a beach to stroll on.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Do you have rv hook ups

Charles Philippart | Aug 17, 2019
Aaron Ramsdell | Aug 17, 2019

The report about it being next to some highway or even a main road are completely wrong, it's in the woods miles from the highways also the skokomish camp is more like an hour away at least. I'm sure that other person is confusing some other camp ground. After all you can look at Google earth a d see for yourself

How long of a fifth wheel trailer can park there and do you ave group sites?

Donna Chapman | Aug 17, 2019
Adam T253 | Aug 17, 2019

The park offers a group camp which accommodates 20 to 50 people in tents or RVs. Facilities include a shelter with three picnic tables, a fire ring with benches, water and a vault toilet. Typical campsites accommodate a vehicle or combination of up to 35 feet. A few sites can handle longer vehicles or combinations, but the campground roadways are narrow and winding. https://parks.state.wa.us/564/Penrose-Point

Open year round? Dump station? Sewer,and electric? Reservations?

Eileen Lopez | Aug 17, 2018
M III | Aug 17, 2018

I live near by and my daughter is a state parks employee and has worked there. The park is open year round. I frequently go on walks through the many scenic trails. They do not have any sites with sewer hookup. They do have a place at the entrance to dump. There is 1 sole camping spot that has electric hookup. Reserve it! Usually it's the spot the camp host uses. But off peak times are easy to get.
