Kanaskat-Palmer State Park

It was a perfect location for me. About 45 min from south Seattle and the Puyallup Fairgrounds. No mobile access for me except in specific spots of satellite texts service. Overall, when I was there, it was a quiet peaceful park. A few trails. Entertaining and educational experience watching salmon migrate up the Green River. Tried to get some pics.

Very lush park along Green River. There are some pretty views of the river from a trail along the riverbank. The trail is rough in a couple places, sturdy boots and hiking pole would be helpful but not absolutely necessary. There is a decent campground with fair privacy.

Great state park with nice trails. I camped there with my wife, son, and two dogs. The camp ground has a classic feel to it. Bathrooms and showers were clean and well maintained. Park staff was super helpful and kind. They sell wood and ice at the Rangers station near the entrance. I hardly heard the trains and they never woke me up. It was a very relaxing and peaceful experience.

A small, incredibly beautiful state park. Most of the campsites are separated by trees and plants, so you can't really see your neighbors. There are 6 showers in the middle of the campground that have hot water (at no additional cost). If you don't mind light hiking, there are trails all over and they'll take you right by the river. Overall, it's been a great experience - very peaceful and quiet.

This is for the area by the river, easy access minutes from the parking lot. Lots of picnic tables and grills, with trails to the river. Very nice clear river, last time I was here the tide was low and there were fish everywhere that you could literally touch them. Too bad I don’t remember when that was, I was hoping it was today but it wasn’t. 😭 I wanted salmon so bad today, Oh well. Maybe next time.
