Senior off season camping Washington State

PSA: You can make reservations online WITHOUT having the pass in your possession yet. You don't need to enter any pass numbers or anything like that. Just choose the payment option that matches the pass you're going to buy.

BUT you must have it with you when you check into the campground.

Headed to Deception Pass Saturday. Will be buying the pass when we get there. And hopefully we can make reservations for New years while we're at it!!!

Have used them for several years now and have never come close to losing money on it. Heck,even if I just jump in the MH and head 20 miles down the road to Belfair state park for a couple of nites and 35 miles to Fort Flagler or 45 to Fort Worden it's gonna pay for itself in a hurry.In less than 7 days,you're ahead of the game.

Where are you seeing $9 ??? The way I read it, it's free (included in cost of the pass) for a non utility(no electric) site, and $10 for a utility(electric) site.

You're correct on the ten bucks. Thanks for the correction...

Of course last year's price was a better deal, but it still sounds like it's worth the $$$.

My math says the break even point is 5 nights in an electric site, or 3 nights in non-electric site.

Seems like I should be able fit in that many nights in 6 months....

You want some cheese with that whine? Oh, I forgot, you have to work.

Add to that the piece of poop Discover Pass to use state lands, it's a three way rip off.

Your does. Mine stays right where it's always been--zero. You see, I'm too busy paying taxes to appreciate any sort of discount. Still, it helps to know our blessed seniors are doing that for me.

Our discount goes up?
