RV / tent camp
Wonderful hosts! Nice clean camping area with plenty of room and a nice little shower & bathroom. The Jets do you go overhead about every 5 minutes though.

We absolutely loved our time with Jill on Monkey Hill. It was the perfect place to rest and recover and relax and a great home base for exploring the island.
Jill is an incredible hostess - and we loved meeting her.

Site "C" is a good one, large and surrounded by trees. It is right next to the outhouse which I liked. It was clean and not smelly. I didn't shower or use the communal kitchen but it was provided as it was promised in the description. Jill did her part to establish communication by messaging me twice through the App before my arrival but my phone was malfunctioning. This site is near to town and Deception Pass which can be a plus, but there is some road noise until about 11pm. It was a good stay!

Jill, our host was absolutely wonderful, kind and accommodating. We requested to rent one of her sites the same day we came to town and she approved our request quite quickly. The location was fairly easy to find and the site was among the most gorgeous grove of trees. There was a cute little guest house with a bathroom that Jill let the guests use and her property is just lush and beautiful. Jill also created a horseshoe pit while we were there and we got to play! We will definitely visit again the next time we are in town. Thank you again, Jill!

If you need wifi, a simple base camp, or a shower- this place is good. I was working on the road and needed wifi and it worked great. The bathroom and shower were clean. The property looks like it’s constantly being improved. I prefer more scenic and more privacy between sites though.

Had a wonderful time camping at 4345 Monkey Hill. The host, Jill, was very accommodating. Loved the hot shower and hot water for dishes. Small campground made it feel like your own.

Good facilities and amenities and a really nice grove of tall trees.
Bathroom is small but clean, and nice to have an actual small sink for washing dishes.

Camping at Jill's was a great experience. The site was clean, organized, and easy to find. Lots of great trees and even access to a guest house with running water, flush toilet, and more!
A couple things to note. The sites are relatively close to the road so there is some traffic noise, although the road is little travelled so no real issue. Also, there are dogs around so just know you might hear a bark or two.
We had a great time, and look forward to our next visit!

Jill was very welcoming and greeted us right when we arrived. Gave us a quick tour, showed off a few of her paintings of the area that she just hung up, and left us to go set up. You can really tell how much she loves the area and her camp.
Nice bathroom, quiet and easy to find.

We decided to try hip camping because we can never get a spot in the parks. Deception pass area is our favorite and we will skip the park for this hip camp from now on!! The sites were clean and had chairs, fire pits, picnic tables. And water and electric. There was a tiny house with fridge microwave and shower. There were other sites and people in them but with only 4 sites it was much quieter than the parks. Ample parking for our large truck too.
The hosts Jill and John were so helpful and fun. We enjoyed getting to know them and hear about their plans to keep improving the camp. Thank you both for creating the best camping experiences have had. Can’t wait to come back.

Site B RV site
It was raining hard the whole time so take this with a grain of salt…Site B is right next to the road so it’s a bit loud. The tent pad is sand which is very messy and unpleasant. The bathroom is super tiny and crammed and unfinished. I think this is a wonderful campsite if it was priced much lower. For the price we paid I was expecting it to be a little nicer.

Jill was an amazing host! The guest house she provides is above and beyond! A tiny house with bathroom, shower, and small living area with fridge and micro.
Their land is beautifully forested and close to deception pass.
Thank you!

Jill was such a gracious host. Very accommodating and working hard to make this a great camping destination. Lots of room around all the sites complete with patio furniture and personal firepits and wood.
Well located and easy to get to all the N Whidbey & Fidalgo sites. Loved being under the canopy of trees and a little off the beaten path.
