What is offered is not commensurate with the price. The staff were quite pleasant and helpful and we thank them!! but the bathrooms need a thorough top-to-bottom cleaning and then regular maintenance. I don’t think the sinks were cleaned nor the counter or floors attended to during the week we were there. The bathrooms also are not accessible, nor at least set up for those with limited mobility like seniors. Suggestions: eliminate the large step up into the shower or instal grab bars to help. Put in hand-held shower heads or lower the height of the shower heads. Install benches for the showers for those who don’t have the ability to balance on one foot anymore. These are all ADA requirements and are being completely overlooked here. The laundry room also needs a good cleaning. And beware, the W/D are not set up so that you can feed coins to get a bit of additional drying time. If your clothes are not dry at the end of the cycle, your only option is to pay for an entire second cycle. The common area could also use some new furniture and decor. Folding chairs and second hand furniture are certainly useable but don’t give a resort feel or appearance. These areas have so much potential to wow your guests. Also there is a nearby gun range so it often sounded like a war zone. This is not within the control of the park, but it should factor in the price as your overall experience will be impacted. Nice setups for hooking up. Nice roads within the park and sites nicely gravelled. They were painting the main building while we were there, so it appears that improvements are being made. Cleanliness needs to be added to the list, however, and the cost needs a re-look. We would likely make another choice if passing through again. Thank you and hope the comments are taken in the spirit of honest helpfulness.

If you want to be at an RV park that overcharges you for what they have to offer, this is the place. It was noisy because there is a (gun) practice range next door and the constant sound of the highway that's close by. I could get over that if they would not charge a $15 a day resort fee. This is not a resort. I have stayed and some very nice RV parks and they really were Resorts and didn't charge a $15 a day fee. We thought we had found a deal but when we signed the paperwork we saw $15 a day on top of what we're paying. For that it has to be a resort. Too late to cancel our booking. We stayed a week. Do the math. I personally am upset about this!! To justify that fee there should be at least a pool, maybe some other things but it doesn't have any of that. It has a small laundry room and a place to sit by the bathrooms. Right now they have a lot of work going on so using the showers is kind of creepy. Because their workers there outside. The showers are fine and roomy. There is only one set of showers for the men and one set of showers for the women and one set of bathrooms for the men and one set of bathrooms for the women. That would be fine except for that is for the whole park. There are no secondary set of bathrooms for the RVs up on the hill. For some of us with a bit of walking issues this is not okay. If they are going to renovate, I suggest putting a set of bathrooms and showers on the hill at the top. Overall we were disappointed. Find another place to stay if you want to more resort-like experience. This is not. There were a lot of dog lovers there. If you have a dog maybe you'd want to try this place out. But I understand that you were going to pay a $15 a day Resort fee for a place that is not a resort. I would live that money back.

We are doing a Pacific Northwest trip, and this is our third stop. We are worried about coming/checking in because of the long-term rentals and garbage reviews. First, It didn't feel like there were long-term rentals (see picture). If there is a long-term rental, it doesn't look and feel like you are in a ghetto. The location is a 5-6 minute drive to their historic town. I didn't realize Gig Harbor was this beautiful, quaint, clean town. The harbor is just gorgeous, located in Puget Sound. It is surrounded by delicious restaurants, local pubs, and taprooms. The clubhouse has a laundry, lounge with TV, game room, and dog wash area. I will definitely come back here again. I highly recommend it!

Great campground in the small town of Gig Harbor! The campground is nice with many mature trees. There are some hills and one-lane roads, so take it slow. Each site is unique, just like the terrain and vegetation here; some are sunny, some shady. They are making renovations to the front office and elsewhere on the property. The standout here is the staff. Every single one was not only friendly, but went above and beyond giving advice on everything from what to do at the campground, in Gig Harbor, AND in Seattle!

Sites were lovely and well maintained. Laundry was excellent, nice to be able to use a card and not coins. Bathrooms were fine, but very poorly maintained/cleaned. Lots of standing water in showers, TP out, showers weren’t cleaned in the 3 days we were there. Shower stalls were also very tight with a high step up, could be an issue if you have mobility issues.
