birch bay state park印象

Lovely campground with very nice bathrooms. The showers were new and very clean and used quarters rather than tokens as in some other Washington state parks. The campsites are set in a lovely forest with big tall trees

Get a parking pass or walk from outside state park gates.Wonderful area for picnics and a very green camping area. Lots of small birds and i saw a fox dash across the campgrounds. We did get lost but followed the roads until we got out. Campsites had firpits which I miss in BC. Big dislike on the BP Plant in the area belching it's poison....

We spent one afternoon exploring this camping park. Like most of the Pacific NW, it offers panoramic views of the Cascade Mountains and Canadian Gulf Islands. There are hiking trails and a natural game sanctuary at the park's north end. The children, ages 3-11, loved the long rocky beach and found many interesting "stuff". It was a cold day (we're from Florida after all) so swimming was not for us, though many others were taking advantage of the sunny day.

This is a pretty park but the sites are pretty close together. There area few that have more room but not sure they have hookups.

We had a picnic at the park in late June. We got a table and firepit right on the bay. Bathrooms were close. The view was phenomonal. The park is quite large. There is camping and day use. I would reccomend reservations for the campspots in the summer.

If you love huge heritage trees then you will love driving and hiking through this State Park. It was only 1/2 mile from our hotel, so it was perfect. The park is not large but worth an afternoon of exploration.

We go to Birch Bay at least once a year to camp. It is 20minutes from our home in Bellingham to the campsite. It is a clean, well regulated campground. Local Sheriffs are ever present poaching speeders who seem to enjoy cruising the beach strip in a variety of car show worthy vehicles. The road closes at dusk and re-opens in the morning so there is no night traffic noise. This place is the definition of family friendly. There are a couple of camping loops that are flat with well worn paths for our kids to test their mountain biking skills. There is a camp store just outside the park that services a large RV park next door. Even little legs can manage the 1 mile ride to Birch Bay where there are cute restaurants, the first one is the C (Candy shop) to get shaved ice, ice cream, popcorn and candy. There is a slough that runs between the campground and the beach that is a haven for all sorts of birds including blue herons and kingfishers that graced us with their presence. The crows and ninja squirrels operatives are brave and resourceful, the later managing to open a sealed plastic crate returning and even trying to push firewood off it. The beach offers crabs, anemones, barnacles and relatively flat water to paddle. There is even a new bathroom that has warm water sinks and three (count'em three!) clean hot showers on each side! Despite its close proximity to the BP refinery Birch Bay is a world away. We have been bringing our daughters there for the last 4 years, they are 7 and 10 now. Forget something? there is near by shopping. Having total meltdown? hotels are minutes away. If you are not sure if camping is for you but want to try, this is the place for you. It doesn't get any easier or safer than this. We have never had a bad time.

Birch Bay is on the bay..pretty but lots of private beach's.No place to really walk for pedestrians. I would not spend money in the summer to stay. You are better off in Blaine. Lots or RVs parks and not a decent restaurant to be found ( I know have been here for 2 weeks). Kind of a low bar place with a nice ocean view.

we drove around this bay and we were marvelled the beauty of this place. Took some pictures for souvenirs and a nice play to stay for relaxation.

I came up here after spending all day in a meeting. I have an annual Discover pass so there was no additional charge. I spent some time walking the beach and enjoying the last of a sunny day. The beach was narrow at high tide but there was still enough to walk on. The crowds had gone home and the few people left were all quiet. Overall a quiet relaxing place to come and unwind after a long day. I drove through the campground and saw some sites I liked. I'll be back sometime when I have a chance to camp.
