Category Overview
State Parks grants help preserve and develop our state’s best outdoor recreation areas by funding new campgrounds and amenities to increase the capacity of our parks, creating new parks, improving park resources, and protecting historical areas. These grants help our state continue to develop our world-class parks system to share our cultural heritage and natural treasures with all of its visitors.
Project Highlights
Grayland Beach State Park, located 5 miles south of Westport, includes 7,500 feet of spectacular ocean frontage. It is a popular destination for camping and day use. The park currently offers 60 campsites for use by either RV or tent campers. However, many of the sites do not accommodate larger RVs, and the campground is filled to capacity during much of the year. This project will install the infrastructure necessary to create a total of 52 additional campsites and 10 yurts. 42 sites will have power and water and 10 will be walk-in tent sites. All construction will occur outside the primary dune area and will not be visible from the shore.
