Site Info: Name: Masonic Park Campground 24310 Mt Loop Hwy Granite Falls, WA 98252
Directions to Site:
From I-5, travel North or South to Seattle/Everett, and take
US-2 (East toward Wenatchee). Take WA-204 to Lake Stevens.
Turn left (North) onto WA-9. Turn right onto WA-92 (East
toward Granite Falls). WA-92 ends in a T-intersection in
Granite Falls -- turn left onto Mountain Loop Hwy. The site
entrance is 4.5 miles from this point, and will be on your
left. Watch for SCA signs.
Internet Maps &
GPS users: When coming from the far north such as
Bellingham, these tools like you to attempt to travel Hwy 9
or Mountain Loop for the duration of your trip. This is
not advisable and re-routing to I-5 is recommended as you
will have a very scenic experience and be several hours later
than anticipated.
Note that the above Weather and Map information is generated from the site address and can be easily confused. The weather will say if its for the branch or for the site. It will be for the site if the site can be found, but this again is not always the case, and if the site is some distance from the branch then the weather may be different.
