ScoutPretty cool little campground. Multiple sites right on the river, but some might be a bit precarious for some to navigate. Facilities were clean and you can tell the camp hosts care. Recommend for an easy getaway for a couple days.
ScoutTrains keep coming through 😭. Tent sites are small.
GuideCold plunge and sauna in the woods amazing. Hot showers, clean bathrooms. Nice campgrounds. Enjoyed our stay.
TravelerPlanes, trains and automobiles....oh did I mention nosy neighbors and rude office staff? Sharon and Erika are unapproachable and judgemental office slime. Skip this place. And the pictures LIE!
ScoutBeautiful camping sites. Very busy. Lots of families and people. Roads are very windy and curvy be extra cautious. Wish we had more time so much to explore. If you bring your dog, you will be very limited on where you can hike too. RV sites are pretty private. Bathrooms and showers look brand new. And Camp post are extremely kind and polite.
ScoutThis sounds like a pretty mixed experience at Jantzen Beach RV Resort. The three heated pools, playgrounds, fitness center, and river access definitely make it appealing for families and longer stays, and having full hookups with level paved sites is a real plus. I also like that the mature trees provide some shade and that the shoreline paths give campers a chance to enjoy the Columbia River without having to leave the property. At the same time, the constant traffic and airplane noise would probably be something I’d want to know about before booking. The low water pressure mentioned in the review is another practical concern, especially for RV travelers who expect reliable hookups. They closed the swimming pool a month early although it is 90f in Portland. The combination of permanent residents and overnight campers also seems like something that could give the park a different atmosphere depending on the site and time of year. The location near Target and the freeway sounds convenient, but Portland rush-hour traffic could definitely make getting around more difficult. Priced at$85–$100 per night, many long-time visitors believe the value has decreased and are opting to seek alternatives. Overall, Jantzen Beach RV Resort seems to offer plenty of amenities and a convenient location, but travelers looking for a peaceful, quiet campground may want to keep the noise and urban setting in mind before reserving. The comparison with Columbia River RV Park would also be helpful for anyone deciding between the two.
TravelerSites were first come, first serve when I arrived there were most sites open. The bathroom is pit toilet which is clean and has toilet paper stocked, plus a light inside that turns on so you don’t have to pee in the dark. Spots aren’t totally level but they do the trick. There obviously is road noise due to the interstate being right next to the campground. Staying here because doing the Eagle creek trail to tunnel falls in the morning so it’s convenient
ScoutCamp host is very nice and helpful, gave brief history of the camp!
GuideWe spent one night here. Beautiful place. Good phone service and really clean restrooms!

Located at approximately 1,200 feet elevation in the western foothills of Mount Hood, the area experiences mild summer temperatures averaging 75-80°F during peak camping season. The dense Douglas fir forests provide ample shade for most camping areas, while riverside sites offer water access during warmer months.
Disc golf courses: Milo McIver State Park features exceptional disc golf facilities with twin 18-hole courses. "Home of the annual Beaver State Fling, a PDGA sanctioned National Tour event, Milo McIver is an excellent host for the international players that come to the Pacific Northwest for a chance to win the tournament," notes a reviewer at Milo McIver State Park.
River access: The Clackamas River provides excellent opportunities for fishing, rafting and swimming. "There is easy water access with a pier for fishing. Within a mile up the road is a marina and boat ramp," according to a camper at Promontory Park.
Winter activities: The Mount Hood area offers year-round recreation. "Using this RV park as a jumping off point, there are endless hiking trails and lakes to paddle and explore in the Mt Hood wilderness. You will never get bored in the Mt Hood area," explains a visitor to Mt Hood Village Resort.
Private sites: Many campgrounds offer secluded spaces. "The outer loop sites are quiet, spacious and wooded. They are also very close to a trailhead to nice hikes and the beach," reports a camper at Oxbow Regional Park.
Action sports access: Some camping areas provide unique recreational facilities. "This place is interesting because it's also a youth camp with the public campground towards the back of the space. The campground is in a separate, secure area from the youth camp but campers can use the gym and trampoline that's available for the kids staying at the youth camp," explains a reviewer at Roamer Sites.
Campfire community: Social opportunities enhance the glamping experience near Brightwood. "At night we had a fire with some fellow campers in this centrally located fire area. It was a super fun, kind of communal experience," notes a Roamer Sites visitor.
Varying water levels: Lake conditions change seasonally. "When we arrived there in August the 'lake' was more of a river, which was perfect for all the splashing and playing that we wanted to do," mentions a camper at Clear Lake Campground.
Road access limitations: Some campgrounds have restricted access. "Since the site is nearly 100 years old, its off limits for large RVs. I, personal wouldn't bring in much larger then a long van, BUT, there are a few sites that will accommodate an 18ish foot trailer and its short tow vehicle," advises a visitor to Camp Creek Campground.
Reservation requirements: Popular sites book quickly, especially during summer. "Reservations are hard to get we booked at 6am, six months out and felt very lucky to get three spots for our family Campout," reports a camper at Trillium Lake.
Kids' programming: Some campgrounds offer organized activities. "The hosts were welcoming and made sure we were comfortable with our stay. We also got a scavenger hunt with stickers for our toddler," shares a visitor to Promontory Park.
Playground access: Family-friendly amenities vary by location. "There are strict no dogs and no alcohol policies (and lots of rules posted everywhere)... On most weekend it seems to be the kind of place that would cater to families. There are... lots of picnic/day use areas, a beach and lots of nature trails," explains a camper at Oxbow Regional Park.
Family-sized sites: Some campgrounds accommodate larger groups. "This is my second trip to Camp Creek. This time we were able to book a spot next to the water. Probably the largest site I've ever camped on. Even though we maxed out with 6 people and 4 tents, you could easily fit another 5 tents on this site comfortably," notes a visitor.
Hookup availability: Electric options vary throughout the area. "We were in our van so had one of the RV sites with electricity, not one of the canvas tents with platforms. Really great location right at the bottom part of Mt. Hood," shares an RVer at Trillium Lake Campground.
Site accessibility: Some campgrounds have limitations for larger vehicles. "I have a 36' rv and had a little trouble getting my rv into my reserved site, but there are others that have easier access for large rigs," notes a reviewer at Promontory Park.
Internet access: Connectivity varies significantly. "The internet is super fast - I was getting 75mbps up/down when I was in my tent," reports a glamping enthusiast at Roamer Sites, providing a rare technology perk for remote workers seeking glamping in Brightwood, Oregon.
