Nice
place
to
spend
a
night
or
weekend
moored
up.
Public
docks
are
first
come
first
serve
and
it
fills
up
pretty
quick,
especially
when
the
salmon
are
running.
Public
restrooms
and
pay
showers
with
hot
water
are
found
south
of
the
moorage
area.
There
are
groomed
trails
that
go
around
the
island.
There
is
also
an
area
for
mooring
at
the
back
of
the
island
with
trails
leading
back
to
the
eastern
side/main
moorage
area.
Not
unusual
to
see
bald
eagle
around
the
island.
You
will
see
deer
all
over
and
they
are
rather
use
to
people.
Years
ago
feeding
the
deer
was
allowed
or
maybe
just
put
up
with
but
not
anymore.
Even
though
they
will
eat
from
your
hand,
DO
NOT
FEED
THE
DEER!
Also,
the
island
has
quite
a
few
racoons
that
like
to
board
your
vessel
at
night
and
see
if
you
left
any
goodies
out.
The
island
is
also
home
to
Tillicum
Village.
They
have
dinner
cruise
boats
come
over
from
the
Seattle
area.
There's
great
views
of
Mount
Rainier
as
well
as
Seattle.
(Seattle
looks
great
at
night
from
Blake)
There
were
two
(public)
covered
shelters
with
large
fire
pits.
One
west
of
the
main
moorage
and
one
south
but
im
not
sure
if
they
are
both
still
there.
There
is
an
area
for
tent
camping
near
the
south
edge
of
the
island.
Reader
board
at
top
of
moorage
docks
has
info
about
the
park
as
well
as
pay
station.
The
docks
in
front
of
Tillicum
village
are
not
part
of
Blake
Island
state
park.
Moorage
is
not
allowed
on
those
docks!
