The next morning, went in to pay, and the people at the front desk were phenomenally welcoming, helpful, and friendly. Facilities were wonderful - used the laundry, shower, and bathroom- all very clean, all very nice & warm. Layout is easy, and the Cruisin Coffee within a short walk has _really_ good coffee. (Eggnog FTW) Whenever I am in town with the rig, I will definitely be staying here.

The spaces are very tight with little dead grass no room for even a chair without being tangled up with your neighbors sewer connections. The picnic tables should be cut up for firewoo, you can't sit or eat at them. They don't allow for visitors parking so my daughter can't visit. I would rather be in a rest area or truck stop. I would look anywhere but here for a stay in Bellingham.

My family and I pulled in with our truck and light weight trailer. On our arrival it looks very…read moreclean and spacious for all campers. We chose a pull through site which makes life easier for us to setup. This park have full hookups for all your needs and kid/family friendly. Amenities they had were washers/dryers, bathrooms with showers, playground, easy accessible parking lot for guests, clubhouse, and excellent customer service. Also if you dont have a Trailer/RV, looks like they also have cabins they rent out so be sure to ask. This park is clean and one of the prettiest RV Parks we've been to. We will be coming back and staying every time we go to Whidbey Island.

This RV park is right across the street from the wonderful Deception Pass State Park, with its…read morecrazy-scenic bridge, beaches, hiking trails, and lakes. At the State Park's West Beach area, you can be strolling on a sandy/rocky saltwater beach and then literally 1 minute later, you can be swimming (or fishing) in a freshwater lake. It's the weirdest, coolest thing! We saw seals, Bald Eagles, Merganzers, and an 800-year-old Douglas Fir tree on a single short hike here. We're hoping to see the beavers they say like to live in Cranberry Lake one of these days, but they've been elusive so far. The State Park has campsites, but it's more for rustic camping, not a great RV park. There are two small towns (Anacortes and Oak Harbor) 10 miles away that offer shopping (Safeway, Walmart, Home Depot, fast food, etc.), but it still feels rural. There's a marina down the road a little way, and there are whale-watching boat tours nearby. This RV park is well-kept and tidy. I saw someone on some review or other complaining (and that and a couple other petty complaints are what inspired me to write ~this~ review, as I don't write many of them, and this is my first on Yelp) about the park's brown grass, and I had to laugh. Did they not know grass doesn't stay green in the height of summer--especially during a drought? If that's all they had to complain about with this place, I'd say they're doing pretty well. LOL The bathrooms are clean, there's a fenced dog park, and they sell propane, firewood, and ice at the office. The office staff are very friendly and welcoming, too. They meet visitors outside with clipboards in hand when it's busy, so that drivers don't even need to step outside their rigs. Most of the spaces aren't huge, but from what I could see, there's only one very small area where they're a little squished, in this area that's at the center of a wheel shape, where the spaces are the wheel's spokes, but it's not like you're on top of each other, and it's not a big deal IMHO. There aren't that many trees, but I'd rather not have any around my rig, actually, and it stays blessedly cool here even in summer, so lack of shade really isn't an issue anyway. The park has a large gazebo and a small club house space that groups can reserve. And it's right across the street from where the Pacific Northwest National Scenic Trail crosses through. A 15 minute hike into the forest along that trail made me feel like I was in Middle Earth. So beautiful! We haven't fished in years, but we saw people fishing in the fresh-water lakes. One's a 5 minute walk away. And there are tide pools in the State Park, too, though that's a couple miles from the RV park, and not a place I want to walk to, as the main road that runs up and down Whidbey Island, State Road 20, can be pretty busy and narrow in that section. But in 5 minutes you can also walk out of the park, cross that road (there's a light with a crosswalk signal) and be in the State Park on a beautiful trail beside a lake with huge trees towering overhead and with the noise of the road forgotten. The Cranberry Lake trail leads you parallel to the lake and through the forest down to West Beach and a dune nature trail with interpretive signage. It's about a 3.8 mile walk round trip, and at the half-way point, there's a State Park camp store where you can get a drink and snack in summer and take a rest. I must say, though, that my favorite time to visit this place is in winter (We love it there so much that we've been there in all four seasons!). There's something so atmospheric about the gray cloud cover and the fog and the wildness of the sea. The hikes are just gorgeous then. There's just something about it, and I love it. If you run out of things to do nearby (HA!), you can take a short drive to visit the truly-charming towns of Langley, Coupeville (where "Practical Magic" was filmed), Mt. Vernon, or LaConner. There's a GREAT food co-op in Mt. Vernon that has amazing produce and gifts and a hot-food deli. It's like a mini Whole Foods. In any of these little towns, you can get an ice cream cone and stroll down old-fashioned downtown areas and window shop and people-watch. And in Langley, you may even spot a whale! The one bad thing I can say about this park is that there's sometimes noise from the navy jets that fly out of NAS Whidbey, which is maybe 5 miles away. That can get pretty loud during some weekdays, but the weekends are almost always no-fly times, and they have free earplugs in the office, if you need them to sleep. I just wore my noise canceling earphones and I was fine. There's also some noise from the two-lane road nearby, especially at rush hours or on busy summer weekends. But when visiting a beautiful place like this, who hangs out in their RV all the time anyway? Anyway...If you can't tell, I really love this place. It's definitely a well-deserved 5-star rating from us.

I did remove a star due to the bizarre interaction with staff members. The nosy lady at the front desk was rude and told us "I'm watching you" because we waited an hour to check in. Also we backed into our spot so we could wake up to a view of the water but within seconds the big bad security guy came and corrected us. Apparently that's not allowed, which is really weird. After that we were public enemy number 1 bc the front desk was very accusatory and flat out weird towards us. Side note: the road in is a one way so whenever you leave the park you're forced to drive into town and turn around. Not a big deal but noteworthy

This is truly the best way to camp! This was our first time "glamping" and I have to say, I may…read morenever do it any other way again. The Leanto staff was extraordinary. Scott was there to greet us, helped us set up, even assisted with needs we had after getting there such as firewood, etc and was beyond helpful. The glamping site itself was super clean, well prepped with everything we needed, comfortable, yet did not take away at all from the true camping experience one bit. My dad is an avid camper and we grew up camping in a similar fashion and our set up was close to this, only we had plush beds, a dresser, local artwork in our tents, and the convenience of not having to bring much gear. We glamped in site 6 which included 2 tents and was able to sleep four. They do an amazing job and for the $, you get a lot. They provide all the things you'd get in a hotel room (maybe more) except in a wilderness setting. But here's something I loved... they also do frequent routine checks on your site to ensure you're comfortable, have any questions or need anything. You can simply communicate via your mailbox and they will not bother you otherwise. It's the cutest thing ever. This was my daughters first time camping (ages 3 and 5) and we wanted to ease them into camping, and I have a feeling, we'll never do it any other way. My only hope is that Leanto continues to a) expand so that we can continue going to new places b) one day allow dogs. While I gave Leanto 5 stars because this was the most perfect camping trip ever, my husband probably would have minused half a star for us having to leave our furbaby at home.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING EXPERIENCE. 5/5! Ever since we got in we felt very welcome. Scott (person who…read morechecked us in) was absolutely great. He gave us a tour of our site and told us all about the area. His recommendations were 10/10. The glamp site (we had site 6) had two tents. One with a queen bed and the other with two twins. Both tents had enough bedding. The bed was very comfy and warm :) the tents also had side tables, coffee, side tables, cabinets, flashlight etc. Gamp site had everything you could need. All you have to do is show up :) the campsite is also 5/5. Clean bathrooms and showers and lots of drinking water around. The whole thing costed us $250 for 4 people. There were raccoons but other than that it was amazing. Highly highly recommend

We were confused about where to park and parked where there was a sign for parking (which we found out was wrong) and which unit was ours to stay in. The owners weren't there, we figured it out on our own. That night we discovered we were in the wrong building (even though our code worked) when people entered our space in the middle of the night. We offered to move to the correct space the next day but the owners said it was okay. When we checked out we got a pretty passive aggressive message from the owner on Airbnb. It was an okay experience overall.

Don't use RedCab. They cost way too much and they went back on a quote…read more I called them a day before I needed their services and was quoted $25 for a six mile trip. That is exceptionally high for a taxi ride. A 6 mile ride in New York City is $26.... this ain't NY. This is Lynden, Washington which made their quote exceptionally high BUT I was in a pinch and had no choice. I get back today and I find out they charged my son $35/each direction. They claim there is a minimum $35 charge... seriously? They failed to mention that. They said NOTHING about a $35 minimum and, like I said, this isn't New York. They should NOT be charging people that kind of money for just a six mile ride. I think they need to revisit their business. I do NOT recommend using these rip off people. They lied about their quote and took advantage of my son who was by himself just trying to get to work and back, and didn't know any better. Shame on them.. Shame!!!

Shawn promptly answered. I explained my situation and we arranged for a pick up. He asked that I call when our plane touched down. Again, he answered promptly and cheerfully said, "Well be there". Not only was the cab exactly on time, but he drove right up to the door and helped load two very heavy suitcases. Upon leaving the airport, he asked if we had a preferred route to our house. His driving was efficient and professional. When we arrived, the driver, once again, helped with the heavy luggage. He carried both suitcases up a flight of stairs and placed them directly in front of our door. The fare was less than I had guessed and the service was certainly more than I had expected. We are an elderly couple and all the "extra" considerations and help were greatly appreciated. I highly recommend!
