We are fairly new to the Thousand Trails membership and started our travels in August 2020 with our first stop at Tall Chief near Seattle. We jumped between TT campgrounds all year. Every person we met gave us great recommendations. But, when we mentioned we were staying here everyone always scrunched their faces and said to stay somewhere else. We stay for free with TT so figured it couldn't be THAT bad. We were wrong... this place is pretty rough and should probably lose it's TT designation.

I will say the staff were all friendly enough but still pretty gruff at best. The park itself is bad. The walls around the premises are just cinder block with barbed wire at the top with trash blowing in the wind on them. The neighborhood itself looks a bit sketchy but it is adjacent to a hotel, a large retirement community, and a few businesses. So I don't think it's as sketch as it looks at first glance.

The bathrooms look pretty run down and the park was pretty ripped up for construction. Hopefully it hasn't been sitting that way for long. The pool didn't look very inviting. The place definitely isn't secure. You can just drive right on in at any time. There were a LOT of busted up RVs and travel trailers. Some even had sides replaced with plywood. Many spots were filled with garbage. Some spaces had 3-5 cars parked at them. For a Thousand Trails there doesn't appear to be any requirements on what is allowed to be parked here. If Thousand Trails wants people to actually join TT you'd think they'd want their parks to look nice enough to even want to join. (Thousand Trails marketing materials were even being used to board up windows).

All-in-all, if this is where people stay full time to live and work then it's fantastic there are decent places. RVs and travel trailers need places to be parked. It should not have a Thousand Trails designation though unless it meets that standard in my opinion.
