I've been traveling to this beautiful place of solitude for the past 8 years every June / July. I…read morelove the location, the views, the atmosphere, and the whales passing by in the early morning. Unfortunately, I'm writing this review today on a rather concerning development the past year. Honey bees, bumble bees, hornets, yellowjackets, and more seem to have taken over the entire camp area. They're annoying campers so much that people are verbally complaining to staff and hanging wasp traps up at night trying to catch-'em before the early morning sun. We couldn't even cook a meal without being attacked every 2 minutes, until one of us got stung. I've never been bothered like this in the past and it isn't an isolated incident. These insects have become bold and aggressive. Management needs to take action and have the site sprayed before an attack occurs on someone allergic and they end up in a law suit for negligence. Again, this isn't a small isolated group. There are huge packs of aggressive insects flying all over everyone's food and drinks. They even come all the way out to the tables by the shoreline.

The best time to come is during midweek before it starts getting busy…read more We came with a group of four for our first San Juan /shrimping expedition. Our campsite was right along the edge next to the beach, it overlooked the whole bay. You'll need to get there early in order to dock your boat. We beached it on nights two and three because it got so crowded. Fire pits for your campfires and plenty of firewood from the forest and drift wood from the beach. Lots of seashells, but not many starfish or marine life. An occasional seal or sea otter swimming around. Lots of birds, eagles, a goldfinch, and a pileated woodpecker. The bathrooms were great, compostable toilets, nice tile floors, and windows to look out from. Nice and clean. A ranger even stopped by to clean them while we were there for four days. It's a short hike from the bay to raccoon island campground. Loved the campground, would highly recommend to come during the week !

Well, apparently they found an alternative Jones after which to name their island. Reachable only by watercraft, Jones is a true gem of the beautiful San Juans. I've been there twice now for day trips, but I'd love to set up camp there for a week or more of sheer PNW bliss. This rustic isle features tent sites and even some pre-built shelters in case you forgot to stop at REI on the way. There are pit toilets and trails as well. And the views across beaches and waterways...well they're just magical. If I ever actually buy a boat, Jones will be my first stop. Even if it's not technically named after me.

The room was large with a balcony looking out to the lake, mini fridge and a wet bar area. The view on the balcony was lovely but the walls that separate your balcony to your neighbors do not go all the way down. Because we stayed at the lodge, our stay came with breakfast. It was a continental style breakfast with freshly made omelet and potatoes. It was pretty good but the wait can be long. I recommend getting in as soon as they open. The stars from the breakfast were the pancakes and their in-house made granola. They had a pancake maker which made perfect little pancakes. And their granola! So delicious. Full of nuts and fruit pieces. They won't tell you the recipe but you can buy per pound to take home. Around the resort, there were lawn games you could play. Bikes, canoes, and pedal boats to borrow. There was a children's activity area and a general store which were closed when we went.

Spot was pretty right next to the lake. Although we ended up with a good spot we did not get to choose. It would be nice to be able to view open sites and pick which one you'd like. They had bathrooms and showers a short walk from the site so that was convenient. They are a little spendy though in my opinion. $60 for a camp site is a little steep. I'm used to paying $25ish for a spot in National parks, etc. I get it they have bikes and games included to use during your day so you do have more amenities. Overall a fun stay.
