About Upright Channel State Park
20 acres of island, beach, and tidelands make up this property on Upright Channel, along the northwest corner of Lopez Island. It was once part of the Washington State Park System, but records showed it was no longer listed among state park properties as of March 2014. Local government took over its management through a formal agreement reached in May 2014.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Contact the state park agency before you go.
