A bit of a drive from Freeland, but worth it! It is the most beautiful state park in Washington and also the most visited. Forested hiking trails, fresh water lakes for kayaking or swimming, ocean beaches, and the breathtaking Deception Pass Bridge. You will need a "Discovery Pass" which can be purchased in the park.
