Welcome to Our Campground
We are a pet and family friendly Campground in beautiful Port Townsend, just a short walk from Fort Worden, the beach and a myriad of forested trails, with over 50 sites to choose from. The campground is operated by the County Fair Association, a small non-profit dedicated to engaging our community in local agriculture and arts. All proceeds from the campground go directly into maintaining the grounds and facilities to host events year-round, including the annual Jefferson County Fair.
Please reserve and pay for your site online here. We do not accept cash payments.
Cell service in this area is limited -- check availability and reserve your site before you arrive! Do not assume an empty site is available -- it may be reserved by another camper.
We have recently reconfigured the layout, creating more space between some sites and expanding others. We hope you enjoy your stay and thank you for supporting the County Fair and other community events here in Jefferson County!
WINTER SEASON NOTICE: Online booking of partial and no hook-up sites is not available starting December 1. We cannot predict when the ground will become too saturated to drive over, so if you are wanting a site after December 1, please contact us about 2-4 days ahead to see if we can accept your reservation: campground@jeffcofairgrounds.org
Every year is different, but rain will happen!

Season Schedule
Closures:
- County Fair - The Campground is closed to the public for about one week in August, prior to and during the Jefferson County Fair, which starts the second Friday of August.
- Winter Season - We close all but the full hook-up and walk-in sites in the winter due to wet conditions that make driving on the grass unsafe. This is typically December through March.
Groups
The fairgrounds can accommodate groups of all sizes. Buildings are available with kitchen and restroom facilities if needed. Check out our Venues page or send us an email: info@jeffcofairgrounds.org.
