☀️🦙🐐 Our availability is very limited...please check here for updates! Returning guests, please send us an email with your dates.

🏕 We are nestled between the Padilla Bay Interpretive Center and the lovely town of Edison. Across the road from the unforgettable Padilla Bay, sit back and enjoy our alpacas and the bay views while watching for eagles nesting nearby. We offer full hookups, an outdoor kitchen area and a fire pit for our guests. You will find our site unique as it is privately-gated and we are only allowing for one camp guest at a time. As our guest, you can rest assured that your privacy and safety are important to us. *For a full description of each space at Bayview Alpacas, please read through to the bottom of this page.

Site Summary: Our RV-only campsite can accommodate: a maximum of 5 people for a standard reservation (up to 3 adults), a maximum of 9 people with the rental of both hookups which can include up to 4 adults plus children (to equal 9), and a maximum of 2 vehicles. All RV’s must be self-contained. No Restroom - No Shower - No Sink.

There are endless things to do in our area…exploring the lovely Skagit Valley has so many possibilities! Venture to Edison to enjoy some local restaurant favorites and sample some homemade cheese, artisan bread and organic blueberries after taking a stroll through Smith and Vallee Gallery. Walk or bike the Padilla Bay Trail just minutes from our home and then explore the beach at Bayview State Park. The Padilla Bay Interpretive Center is a must see when visiting. Anacortes, LaConner, and Camping World are also a short drive away.

Stay with us April 1- 30 and visit the annual Skagit Valley Tulip Festival (a spring favorite that should not be missed!), only 10 minutes from your site. Bald eagle-watching season, a month-long celebration in January, brings many visitors looking to catch a glimpse or a photograph of these majestic residents.

Exploring the islands makes for a fun day-trip with the Anacortes Ferry Terminal just 30 minutes from your campsite. For guests seeking to explore via car or by foot, detailed ferry information will be sent in your “Upcoming Stay” message along with a few interesting places to visit.

If hiking and mountain biking are on your list, there are many places close by to explore. Over 60 miles of trails can be found at Galbraith Mountain near Bellingham to get you started. For those who are up for some seasonal skiing or snowboarding, rise early and enjoy Mount Baker or Stevens Pass, both just a 1.5 to 2-hour drive. As you will be the only one here camping, you may safely leave your gear at the site on our privately-gated property.

Traveling with family or friends and in need of an extra RV hookup? We have one additional set of hookups that can be added to your reservation. Please inquire if you are interested in this option. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance with adding this to your reservation.

Bring your bikes, your kite, your guitar, and your walking shoes. There is much to do in our Evergreen State!

The Details…

Campsite: This site is mostly flat (leveling required) and consists of a crushed rock pad surrounded by lots of room to drive in, back in, turn around, and bring your toys. It allows for electrical, public water, and sewage hookups. There is also grass and cedar chips in/near the site. Your RV door will face northwest featuring views of the bay, the islands, and our alpacas. Our residence is further up the drive providing you with additional privacy. You will have a large campsite area and an expansive west-facing field to spread out. The outside kitchen area is yours to use as well.

Fire pit: Centrally located and just in front of the outside kitchen. There is a picnic table, a removable grill for cooking, some firewood for your use (more available for purchase if needed) and 4 chairs.

Outside Kitchen: Featuring a Weber bbq with a side burner (an oldie but goodie); small refrigerator; hot plate; stainless steel table for cooking/serving; 2 tables for dining (both make a great desk); a patio heater; a water hydrant. NO sink and please bring your own utensils and cookware.

Extra Hookups: Is only offered as an add-on for our guests and allows for extra electrical, public water, and sewage hookups. This area is mostly flat (leveling required) and consists of grass and cedar chips. Depending on how you would like to park and the size of your RV, using these hookups may partially block your view from the outside kitchen. It is still worth it though, in our opinion, to be able to travel with your family and friends! :-)
