Washington State Parks to Raise Fees in 2026: Balancing Costs and Accessibility
Washington State Parks is increasing several fees starting in 2026 to cover rising expenses and maintain park operations. Non-resident reservation fees will rise from $5 to $15, Senior Off-Season Pass from $75 to $100, and nightly utility fees from $10 to $12. Roofed spots like cabins and yurts will see price increases from January 1, 2027. Despite these changes, parks will continue to offer five discount programs for low-income seniors and others, as well as twelve free Discover Pass days and community giveaways to ensure accessibility.
