Whispering Pines RV Park, Cle Elum WA

Stay Dates:  March 2013
Our Rating:  GOOD – 7
This is a small park with only a few sites suitable for big rigs, and although the interior road is a bit tight, with care you can maneuver into one of the two or three long grass and gravel pull-thrus. Our site had a nice grass area, shade, and a table.  Lots of trees, but a fairly clear shot for the satellite, with fair Verizon cell and data reception. The free cable TV was extensive and clear. Fairly quiet, with a few long term RVs and friendly owners/hosts and a large store. Considering that there are no sewer hookups or WiFi, the nightly rate is at the top end of what we would expect for a park with few amenities. Anyone with a rig over 32' should probably call ahead for reservations since the larger sites are few. Winter rate of $29/night.  Whispering Pines RV Park

Fildago Bay RV Resort, Anacortes, WA

Our Rating:  GOOD – 7
The park has two areas; we stayed in the upper area which was lower in price but had pull-in waterview sites. Interior roads and sites are gravel and fairly level, and while we no one on either side, it would be very tight when full as sites are very narrow. The free WiFi was surprisingly strong throughout our stay, and the cable TV was limited but adequate. The upper area has many long-term residents but their sites were in the interior and kept clear of outside items. A paved walking path runs through the park and out into the bay and is open to dog walkers. The view includes a small marsh, Fildago Bay, and Mount Baker and the Cascades in the distance.  Road noise can be troublesome, but tapers off at night. The entry road is narrow and very rough, but has little traffic, and to exit you must drive toward town and then back to the highway. All in all a pleasant park that's convenient to Anacortes and Whidbey Island. A good value at the winter rate of $27/night.  Fildago Bay RV Resort

Gilgal Oasis RV Park, Sequim WA

Our Rating:  GOOD – 9
We enjoyed our stay at this compact, well-staffed park. Sites and interior roads are paved, fairly level, and each has a nice grassy area and picnic table. Maneuvering through the park's interior is a bit tricky, but doable. Fairly good WiFi is now available throughout the park, and a DSL hookup is available for free at each site, with cables available at the office. The free cable was extensive and clear. Hookups were adequate although the water pressure was a bit low. The owners and hosts are very friendly and host a pot luck each month. The lounge area and laundry are nicely maintained and the washers and dryers are reasonable. A plus is being within walking distance of the small downtown area and nearby fast food restaurant. A great little park, and reasonable for the $375/mo rate (+electric).  Gilgal Oasis RV Park
