Rockport State Park

Washington State Parks

Home Definitions How Much Sites Rockport S. P.	To visit an old growth forest usually takes a good deal of effort and a desire to hike into the back country. Rockport State Park is one of only a few stands of old growth forest that you can drive right into and even have a picnic or camp among the ancient trees. In 1961 Rockport State Park was opened. The park has over 600 acres of old growth forest. This stand of old growth forest was donated to the State of Washington for the purchase price of one dollar by Sound Timber Corporation in 1935. The park has eight tent sites, 50 utility sites, one dump station, two restrooms and four showers. Maximum site length is 45 feet (may have limited availability). Tent sites are walk-in sites with the longest distance from the parking lot no more than 200 feet. All campsites are first-come, first-served.
