Hike-in to this Hipcamp.
Bike, kayak or hike into this spectacular park on Maury Island, where your tent campsite near the beach awaits. Mount Rainier peaks out on sunny days, madrona trees branch overhead, while otters and bald eagles put on a show. There is a 3/4 mile walk down a gravel service road, with an average grade of 8%, from the parking lot! Pack accordingly, or plan to bike or paddle in for closer access. Camping is open May through October. **If you would like to book the entire campground, please email us at hello@camponvashon.com** Please pack-in and pack-out. Fire is prohibited. Amenities include use of the picnic shelter, port-a-potty bathrooms, picnic tables near the campsites and a kayak/paddleboard storage rack off of the beach trail. There is no water available so please pack in enough water for your stay. To protect the park, please abide by the camping rules. FIRES AND ALCOHOL PROHIBITED. Our campsites are located in parks with limited access for fire fighters. Fires will be and are reported. The risk isn’t worth it! Directions to your site: Parking lot for vehicles and trail access is on SW 244th Street (GPS coordinates 47.38564509862387, -122.39947726859351). Maury Island Natural Area is served by Metro bus route 119 along Dockton Road SW. Arriving by bike - see the Vashon Bike Map image for routes. King County's Maury Island Marine Park brochure has information to help you plan. This campground is located within Maury Island Marine Park, on the east side of Maury Island, a peninsula of Vashon Island. One of the largest undeveloped properties located directly on Puget Sound with more than 1 mile of shoreline, the park provides stunning views of the East Passage, Mount Rainier and the Cascade Mountains. The site had significance for early Native Americans and is referenced in a legend about Snake People who arrived from the mainland as part of war party. The park contains rare stands of Pacific Madrone, a salt marsh, eelgrass beds and significant fish and wildlife habitat for such species as great blue herons, bald eagles, kingfishers, chinook salmon, orca, and bull trout. Trail length within the park: 3 miles (plus .75 mile gravel maintenance road to the shoreline accessible to non-motorized vehicles only).

Site 6

Booked 1 time
Tent site · Sleeps 4
Sites 1-6 have a 2 tent max with 4 adults and kids per site. Site 6 is closest to the bathroom and picnic shelter (though still a quick walk), and it's the shortest walk down to the beach / kayak landing. Separated from the other sites by some foliage, but it is along the walk path between the other sites and the facilities or beach. Site 6 is a bit less shaded than sites 1-4. No fires.
