    This is one of the few things available to do in Point Roberts and it's really a fun walk as well as a phenomenal view of the Salish Sea. It's pretty much a panoramic view of such a vast area. You may be able to see both Canada and the US below the 49th parallel. I've said it before but I just think Point Roberts is so cool as it's one of six exclaves regarding the United States. Anyway, there is a short walking trail along the perimeter of the park. There is also artwork scattered throughout. There are restrooms which are very clean and maintained as well as some pavilion type covered areas where I guess you could have a picnic or set out some lawn chairs. They kind of look like stages for some sort of play but they're not. I do believe though that you have to register online to reserve the pavilions if you're having a function or something. One thing I did notice as the park is basically just a big open beach is that it's majorly windy and gusty, so bring a windbreaker or a nice jacket because the air off the water can be quite chilly. There is a boat launch area as well. You can also see whales and whale pods from here although I have never seen any the 3 times I've been here. I believe this park is mainly free to use and there are campsites available for reservations but you can check the Whatcom Parks and Recreation site for more info.

    Found this place by accident while exploring Point Roberts. Actually a surprisingly nice little park! Parking is available in several decent sized lots. No idea how full it gets during the summer. As this is along the cost, it is quite windy. Be sure to dress warm. There is a large picnic area available, and it would probably be a great venue for a BBQ. You'll probably need to buy all your food from the local supermarket though. Yay for borders. The park is great for taking photos of the ocean. Definitely will be back when it gets warmer.

    I came to Point Roberts solely to check out the weird geographical oddity or whatever of this place being an exclave. Yes, this is dorky. But I figured it had to be done. It does take some time to get down there from Highway 99. You turn off the highway at Highway 17 by Ladner and then you head south toward Tsawwassen, which to today I still can't spell or pronounce. You feel like you're in the middle of nowhere because you're surrounded by flat fields. It's only after you make a left onto 56 St (not 56th?) (lest you continue on Highway 17 and dead end in the ocean) you start seeing, well, people again. The wait to get back into the US was a good half hour. I'm not sure if that's how long it would take on a regular day, but I was there on the 4th of July. It was really handy for some 19-20 year olds who had walked into Canada to buy beer to return home to celebrate. I'm sure the border guard thought we were crazy for wanting to go in, but I guess he saw no reason to deny us. We drove down to Lighthouse Park and it was very peaceful. There were a bunch of families there, burning bonfires and fishing and playing in the water, but it was peaceful, especially at sunset. Restrooms are available (your typical not-that-clean park bathroom) and a picnic area. Good area to go walking or to watch the sunset over the mountains on Vancouver Island. I drove back up along Roosevelt Way, where the international border is marked by those Caution-Wet-Floor shaped markers and the fences of people's backyards. Although some of the houses had very low fences and I noticed one that had a little gate. Hmm. We met a very nice Bulgarian woman going for a stroll who took my picture for me (hey I had to prove I was there). She emigrated to the States from Canada and loved living in Point Roberts. I didn't blame her. The ocean air, quiet streets, huge lots, forests. Some of the houses were huge. And who wouldn't want to live in a private gated community, where the protection is by U.S. Customs? There's no line getting back into Canada since I'm sure there's not much demand. I feel bad that they had to construct an entire facility for it. Since there weren't any irate drivers behind us we chatted her up for awhile, and things were going well until I begged her to stamp my passport. She had to go look for it.

    Stopped by here after getting some cheap gas. There's really nothing much here, except lots of logs and a view of the water. I did feel a sense of serenity here though, as it is not very busy and I feel like I have the whole place to myself. A good place just for a little escape.

    Nice way to get warm in the late spring

    Wow! I'm surprised nobody has reviewed this RV park yet! We spent most of summer 2016 here with our…read morekids and loved every minute of it!! We are locals but it was awesome to "get away" and have a staycation. Beautiful location and just steps away from the quaint little town of Fort Langley. My husband was able to go to work still and I would stroll the town with my little boys! The playground and pool are a fun addition as well! We didn't get a chance to go this year and missed it so much!! Definitely recommend this location to anyone wanting a beautiful RV site!

    This is a nice campground with plenty of amenities. Pool, playground, rental pedal carts, scenic…read morewalk to the Fraser River beach, and a short walk to the historic Fort Langley Downtown district. However, there's too much traffic for my liking, and the trains are a bit much as they're only a stones throw away and sound their horns every time all night long. People are constantly driving in and out of the park up to and slightly past the cut off. If you're parked near the road it gets old in a hurry. The general store in the park is fairly priced & handy. The wifi is very limited at your site but is unlimited at the store. It costs $25 extra per week to park a second vehicle here or $10 a night. A little bit much imo. There were loud gun like bangs during the first day I was here and police coming through the first night I was here. As I write this at 21:44 there have been four vehicles through here in the last 15 minutes. Three of which were diesel, and one shining their lights directly into my camp. If you're going to stay here, try and get a spot to the rear of the grounds. It cost me roughly $300 to stay here for a week.

    I've been coming here for 10+ years we come back every year! Rain or shine. The sunshine coast is…read morethe best, and a big part of my joy is this campground. It's close to everything. You can get groceries, get a tan, swim, or go to a nearby restaurant for some yummy food. This is SUPER convenient especially if you're unfit to drive and/or wanna enjoy the environment. It's nice to have all this within walking distance. ADDITIONALLY, if you are too shy to swim at the beautiful nearby beach then you could enjoy the campground's pool :) it's kid friendly and convenient to have nearby your campsite. The staff is awesome! Everyone has always been super nice and friendly. They are very lighthearted and make you feel at home. This is exactly the camping environment I'd like to be in (all summer long)! The campsites vary in size, which appeases different type of campers. Whether you're with your family, or taking it easy with just one gal pal, you can book a variety of campsites. You can book a smaller scenic campsite, if you're just staying over for one night. OR, you could book a bigger campsite, if you and your big family wanna stay for 5+ days. I've always camped here for 5+ days, so I've booked the bigger campsites with my family. It's nice having those options :) The campsites are beea-uti-fulll! So scenic, and depending on what site you book you can hear the relaxing melody of the stream. It's super helpful if you struggle to sleep at night, as it distracts you and reminds you of the beauty of nature. Overall, it's a beautiful experience. Cheers!

    The Creekside Campground & RV Park offers everything you need for a joyful get-away and camping…read moretrip. You check in at the office, where you can also buy wood for your fireplace. Next to the office is a laundry room for cleaning your clothes. The Campsite even offers a Pool! (Open from 9am - 9pm) The area itself is not too big, but big enough that you will have enough privacy on your reserved spot. There are some RV places with outlets and some more tent-sites where you can park your car, pop up your tent and enjoy yourself and a nice BBQ on your fireplace. When we were there, a ice cream truck came by in the evening which was a really nice thing. The Creek marks one side of the campground, but because of the salmon coming back to reproduce it's not allowed to step in/ wade/ bath/ play in it. But that's okay, I mean the "big water" is not far and you can go swimming in one of the many bays this region has to offer (or the pool ;) ). They have a designated security person for emergencies and patrols at night, so you can feel safe all the time. I really enjoyed how friendly everyone was, that there are so many big trees on site and you have everything you need for a nice stay. This is definitely a place to come back to.

    This place is not recommended at all. From not being allowed to have a picnic table (only overnight…read moreguests), to being too noisy playing with the dogs. Not allowed in the showers, as their 90yr old park spy didn't like "The looks" of my wife and son. We filled a small dog pool for the pooches on the hot days and no sooner had we started filling it (Less than 35 gallons) we were told no pools. They said this was posted at the office. Keep in mind this is the office that is always locked and unattended and everything from checkout to check in is done by messages and email. We, and I assume others as well, are followed and spied on. If you stay, keep your head on a swivel and your eyes open as you are watched. The owners and management are rude and snotty. We were scheduled to stay for many months but after less than three weeks we are packing up and leaving. Gate is always open so security is also a risk here. Most other tenants are great. The others have nothing but time to fill and axes to grind. Typical off site owners who run this by keyboard and shitty management. We just finished our latest tour of the states and stayed at a little over 100 koa and private campgrounds this go around and loved all of them!! Except this one. DO NOT STAY HERE! There are tons of vacancies at way nicer parks for same $$$ or cheaper. We give this park a big fat double thumbs down with a raspberry on top.

    The only complaint this landlady has about my space is i have my trees in pots that i have had for…read moremany years and others planted which is one of the reason we have constant water shut off for leaks etc. Everything i ask to do like put a canopy over my entrance 100% on my own deck, she says no but yet there are complete patios and porches and many gazebos with screens etc. I put my custom screen on my awning and she made me take it down because it was the wrong color and the nosy neighbor lady who has since moved could not see thru it to spy on other neighbors. She mowed every single site in the park but mine. I had to pay to have someone mow for us since we both are on disability. She could care less. Our site is muddy. I cannot park and load without getting in the mud. Law says has to be hard surface for drive and 3 in minimum of gravel under site and on site. My sewer that has to be dealt with every couple weeks we have 2 x 4 to prevent getting in mud when you open and close she calls junk. Every time I ask her for something she threatens me and makes my stay miserable. We have been here 11 yrs. We are not campers so only the monthly people have a clue what I'm talking about with the landlords and their never ending harassment to try and make this an RV park under RV rules when she has many mobiles and permanent people in here that she and us are bound by landlord tenant laws for mobiles. We keep our site nice, we pay our rent on time and have never in all the 11 years missed a month. I had a dispute recently with my electric bill twice the normal it has ever been. She ignored it and said it will go down in summer but yet we have no new appliances or heaters or anything that runs high watts. We have had more than one short in the electric here and twice on our plugs fixed by the landlord not an electrician. But to go from $80 at highest ever to $158 for 1 month with no new anything means it has short or someone plugged into my site, She claims all the people here are happy but me but most are just afraid to face her. She is a rich Asian who has e or 4 houses to live in plys a halfmillion dollar rv to travel in. She does not know what permanent living in 300 sq ft does to you and my only fun is a little gardening but she wants me to quit that or buy expensive pots that all match so i look good to her. there failure to deal with real problems results in here telling us to leave. If i could afford to I would but we are skirted, have 110 appliances and cannot live self contained any longer. Also whoever asked gets fences but not us so i have to deal with other dogs using our yard for their poop jobs. the people that are happy do not have to stay here year round and she is done some really mean things to other tenants that gave up and moved. I dont know where people have been living to think that mowing and cleaning bathrooms is out of the normal. We have lived in parks for 22 yrs and all were nice and quiet and mowed and clean so that is not a rating for a full time tenant and certainly not what we put up with. Please come in and talk to some of the long term people. I can give you names. also to make our life hell over our plants in pots rather than the ground is just wrong. I just paid to have a brick wall made to put my main pots behind and our site looks nice. If there were conformity to the park it would be different but some have many things built onto and around their units and nothing is alike so how do make someone conform to nonconformity? So she has singled me out and i am fed up with it. I told her to sue me and lets let the courts tell her what the law says but she just continues to harass me. What she calls junk is all the life we have. rich people !!
