VANCOUVER – The 2023 annual parking passes for county regional parks are available for purchase beginning Tuesday (Dec. 6). Daily parking fees are charged year-round at four county regional parks – Frenchman’s Bar, Lewisville, Salmon Creek and Vancouver Lake – and range from $2 to $8 depending on vehicle type. 

The daily parking fee can be paid at the fee booth when fee collection staff are present, via the Flowbird mobile app, self-pay stations or by displaying a valid annual parking pass.

Passes issued by other agencies, such as the Washington State Discover Pass and the city of Vancouver’s Marine Park parking pass, are not valid for parking at the four county regional parks where daily parking fees are charged.
