Camping near Geneva

·

Situated just outside of Bellingham on the banks of Lake Whatcom, Geneva is a good jumping off point for lakeside adventure and for exploring wilder terrains further afield. The prettiest attraction in the area is arguably Whatcom Falls Park, the site of a waterfall that pours into Whatcom Creek. Geneva sits right on the 10-mile long Lake Whatcom, popular for fishing, swimming, and boating, and is just a short drive from the 745-acre Lake Padden Park. Other attractions include Larrabee State Park, Lake Samish, and the shops and restaurants of nearby Bellingham.

45mi from Geneva · 7 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging · Arlington, WA
Nestled near Arlington, our 75-acre property spans both new and old forest, featuring a salmon-filled creek and a vibrant beaver pond—all set against the dramatic backdrop of a 1,200-foot sheer cliff crowned with old-growth trees. Since its purchase in 1958 as a family retreat, this land has grown into much more than a getaway. It has become a place for relaxation, adventure, and connection with nature—a private forest for family and friends to enjoy. Over the years, the family has adopted forest stewardship and sustainable timber harvesting practices, while also developing campsites, trails, hosting rock concerts, and even producing wine. What began as a simple escape has evolved into something extraordinary: a tree farm that successfully balances nearly every goal a forest landowner could imagine—timber production, wildlife habitat, natural beauty, recreation, and forest resilience. Valhalla embodies all of this with a harmony so seamless, it feels effortless.

Welcome to your private Skagit Valley retreat, where trumpeter swans soar overhead and sunrises paint the sky in shades of gold. Just outside Burlington, Washington, this secluded camp blends comfort, accessibility, and natural beauty into one unforgettable experience. The site features a pull-through driveway with a dedicated RV pad, two tent sites, and a spacious 400-square-foot viewing deck. From the deck, you’ll have a front-row seat to one of nature’s great performances: migrating swans, ducks, and geese flying directly overhead, their calls echoing across nearby ponds. The deck is also the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening stargazing, or simply relaxing in the open air. Dike trails wind out from the property, leading to ponds, viewpoints, and secluded corners where wildlife is abundant. Whether you’re an avid birder with binoculars ready, a hiker eager to explore, or a family looking for a safe and spacious getaway, the land offers something for everyone. Amenities include a composting toilet, picnic table, and fire pit—everything you need to feel comfortable while keeping the focus on nature. While the site feels a world away, it’s just minutes from I-5, offering both convenience and seclusion. This is more than a place to park or pitch a tent; it’s a destination. Bird enthusiasts will experience unforgettable encounters with trumpeter swans, ducks, and geese in flight. Families will enjoy wide open spaces, safe trails, and nights around the fire. Everyone will be drawn to the sunrises, which are nothing short of spectacular. Built with care and intention, this camp invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and connect with the natural beauty of the Skagit Valley.

8.1mi from Geneva · 11 sites · Tents, RVs · Sedro Woolley, WA
Retreat to relax at Chuckanut Hills Farm and Campground, a 20-acre energy-regenerative, off-grid family farm nestled at the foot of Anderson Mountain and surrounded by thousands of acres of forest. 30 minutes south of Bellingham in the Chuckanut Mountains, the only finger of the Cascade Mountain Range that reaches all the way to the Salish Sea. This wooded forest is part of the Puget Lowland Forest Eco-Region. These hills were the native home of the Saquantch people, a Salish coast tribe that fished and hunted the mountains surrounding Lake Whatcom. They lived in long lodge homes and were later pushed out by the invading Lummi Tribe. The Lummi Tribe was later pushed out by Western logging companies, and the entire mountainous region was heavily logged for a number of years. Where our farm now rests was once the second of many logging camps built by Ed English, and he cut our gravel farm road in 1900; a railroad ran through the lower part of our property, taking logs from Lake Whatcom down to the little boom town of Seattle. Our intention while being caretakers of this ancestral land is to restore native plants, raise heirloom produce and heritage animals, and provide a restful nature paradise for people looking to spend time in the outdoors.

Thank you all for 2025!!! If the ground is not frozen, reach out! I may be able to book you in. Stay in our cabin at the estuary on Turners Bay where wildlife is abundant and easy to see. The Bamboo cabin is very private and has everything you need to just hang out. Saltgrass's location allows for many fun outdoor activities such as hiking at Kukutali Preserve State Park, crabbing, fishing, birding, bicycling and playing on the beach, my kids actually found a bottle with a message inside years ago. Alternatively, you could explore the many little shops in the towns of La Conner and Anacortes. There are multiple activities available, I would suggest calling ahead in order to book kayaking, rock climbing, whale watching, or a sailing charter. You could easily take a day trip to the San Juan Islands by taking a ferry ride out of Anacortes, walk on or book ahead if you are taking your car. Also, the Swinomish Casino and golf course are within two miles. While you're here you may meet our pup Turner, we also have two cats and several chickens. On the property are your hosts Jeri and Nancy, as well as our handyman Sean, Saltgrass boasts beautiful flowers, vegetable gardens, fruit trees, and yes, the Bay. We try to live harmoniously with the land. We would love to share our space with you! Due to potential freezing weather and vulnerable water pipes, we have changed our booking to making a reservation confirmation.

October 10 2025, A new addition to the bamboo cabin; we built gates that allow you to secure the deck as an outside space for your dog.

Where to go

The San Juan Islands

Across the Bellingham Bay from Geneva, the San Juan Islands are known for their beautiful natural scenery and ample opportunities for outdoor fun. Whale-watching is particularly popular here, with year-round opportunities to spot these marine mammals.  

The North Cascades

East of town, the North Cascades region and North Cascades National Park is home to some of the least-touched scenery in the state. Just be prepared to hike or backpack as much of this wild expanse can only be accessed on foot.

The Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest

Stretching along the western Cascade Range, this national forest is a great place to hike and camp, especially in the summer. It's also the site of snow-capped Mount Baker, an active volcano that attracts plenty of mountain climbers.

When to go

Geneva and the surrounding area is pleasant throughout the year, though low temperatures from December through March make it less than desirable for camping, especially if you don't have cold weather-rated gear and good rain protection. The climate here is cool and rainy throughout the year, although July and August can have highs in the low 70s and usually don't get more than four or five days of rain.
