Cama Beach Cabins From 1932-1953, this area was home to the Cama Beach Resort. The Resort had a general store, boathouse and fishing village-style cabins, which can still be seen along the shoreline. Once State Parks acquired the property, these cabins were used for overnight accommodations. However, significant septic and infrastructure failures led to the closure of the cabins and other buildings in the beach area of the park in February 2024. Finally, in October 2024, the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission voted to keep the cabins at the park permanently closed where they currently sit. This was a difficult decision following an involved public process. A long-range multi-phased comprehensive planning process is underway help inform decisions about future uses of the park. For more information about the decision and the planning process, visit the Cama Beach Project Page here.
