Best Campgrounds near Clatskanie, OR

I recently stayed at Jantzen Beach RV Park while visiting Portland, and overall, the experience was quite good. The park's location is very convenient, with easy access to downtown Portland and nearby attractions. The spacious pull-thru sites made parking my RV hassle-free, and the electric hookups worked perfectly. The facilities were mostly clean, and I appreciated the free Wi-Fi and cable TV. The heated pool and walking paths along the Columbia River were nice touches that relaxed my stay. However, the water pressure was lower than expected, which seemed to be a common issue among other guests as well. Security could be improved, especially during late hours. Although I didn’t experience any issues myself, I noticed a few concerns raised by other visitors regarding theft and late-night disturbances. The staff was polite but could have been a bit more attentive to these matters. Overall, it’s a decent spot for short stays if you plan to explore Portland, but there is room for improvement in maintenance and guest support. Read More

This is an ideal place for those who love quietness and closeness to nature, especially with experiences in the Gunspin style- free, liberal and full of exploration. Although there are no amenities such as drinking water or toilets, in return, the spacious, airy space and majestic natural scenery will bring you memorable experiences. However, it should be noted that the road to the campsite can be bumpy and narrow, so you need to prepare carefully before coming. If you are looking for a place to relax and immerse yourself in nature in the spirit of Gunspin, this is definitely an option not to be missed.Fun experience

This is the second time I've camped at Mossyrock Park, 1st time in a group camp. There are 2 group campsites. G1 is only for tents. G2 will accommodate tents and RVs. We were in G2. It does look a little lack luster at first glance. G2 is a large gravel lot with 12 narrowly spaced picnic tables, grassy areas on the perimeter, and a large firepit at one end. There are no hook-ups, but there is a water spigot for the group campsite and bathrooms with showers near-by and a kitchen shelter. I did not use the bathrooms so can not comment on those and I'm not sure if we would have been able to use the kitchen shelter or if that was a separate reservation. Our group was originally to be full with all 12 parties attending, but 2 parties ended up canceling. We also had people arriving on different days and leaving early. The full booking was for Thursday-Monday over Memorial Day weekend. We had almost every manner and size of equipment there as well from a 5th wheel, various size bumper pulls, a truck camper, class A motorhome, and tents. It was a bit tight once more people started showing up so bringing a larger rig in once people are in there could be hard to do. One of the parties that brought their boat would actually back in from the entrance since it would have been hard to get in and turn around. Since it was a holiday weekend, the park was pretty full, but I couldn't really tell from where we were. It was surprisingly quiet in G2. The consensus was that people enjoyed the trip and would like to do it again next year.

I have Verizon and was able to call and text my husband and occassionally use messenger. I had one or two bars. Probably would have been better with a cell booster.

This campground is extremely well run and organized. The entire campground and park are absolutely beautiful. The sites are large, shaded and quiet. Many are pull through. If you want a water view you will find full hook up does inn loop A, or no hook up sites on loop C. T-Mobile access was ok, not great. Showers were free and very warm. The campground has numerous cabins for rent many with water views . The natural flora and fauna in late May/early June are amazing. There is not much beach access from the campground that we saw, but there’s a lovely beach area with boat landing and playground in a separate part of the park.
