    Condon RV Park offers full hookups with water and sewer connections in Condon, while Wheeler County Fairgrounds RV Park in nearby Fossil provides clean sites with water, electric, and sewer hookups. Sherman County RV Park, located about 30 miles from Condon in Moro, features spacious pull-through sites accommodating large RVs with 50-amp electrical service. Most sites throughout the region have gravel pads rather than concrete, with varying degrees of levelness depending on location and seasonal conditions. Restroom facilities are generally well-maintained across these parks, with Wheeler County Fairgrounds offering showers for travelers. "The sites are level with full amenities - pull-throughs and easy back-ins. The restrooms and laundry are spotless. The rates are very low."

    Availability varies seasonally, with most parks in the region maintaining year-round operation. Dump stations are accessible at Wheeler County Fairgrounds and Sherman County RV Park, while some smaller facilities lack this amenity. Cell service can be inconsistent throughout the area, particularly in Fossil where connectivity is described as limited. Pets are permitted at most facilities, though specific restrictions may apply. Between May and September, advanced reservations are recommended as RV sites fill quickly with visitors exploring the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument and other regional attractions. Though primarily utilitarian in design, these parks serve as convenient bases for exploring the area's natural and historical sites. Road access to most parks is straightforward, though travelers should note potential for strong winds in this high-desert region, particularly when parking or extending awnings.

      Boardman Marina Park

      Lush Lawns, River Views, and Stunning Sunsets in Boardman, OR

      Reviewed by: The Crew at Hitched4fun.com

      If you are navigating the Pacific Northwest corridor or routing toward Glacier National Park along Interstate 84, Boardman Marina& RV Campground is an absolute breath of fresh air. Situated right along the shores of the Columbia River (Lake Umatilla), this park provides an exceptionally scenic, vibrant oasis in Eastern Oregon. During our recent cross-country trek, we booked Site Circle B-24, and it instantly became one of the prettiest waterside stops of our trip.

      Campground Setting& Site Quality (Circle B-24)

      The immediate standout feature when pulling into this park is just how remarkably lush and green everything is.

      • Manicured Grounds: Unlike many high-desert stops in the region, the campground is covered in acres of super green, well-kept lawn. It gives the entire park an open, park-like feel that is easy on the eyes and great underfoot.
      • Mature Shade Trees: The property is filled with large, mature shade trees that provide fantastic relief from the summer sun while adding character and privacy to the loops.
      • Site Setup: Circle B-24 offered plenty of breathing room, easy hookups, and a level pad. Navigating the circles is smooth, and having wide grassy areas between sites makes relaxing outside your camper door genuinely peaceful.

      The Columbia River Experience

      The campground sits directly on the banks of Lake Umatilla, turning a routine overnight stay into a true waterfront retreat.

      • Riverfront Action: Being right on the water brings great sightseeing opportunities. One of the highlights of our stay was sitting outside the rig and watching a large river cruise boat glide slowly down the Columbia River.
      • Family Atmosphere: The energy throughout the park is wonderful. Lots of families were out enjoying the lawns, walking along the shoreline paths, and taking advantage of the marina setting.
      • World-Class Sunsets: As evening rolled in, the west-facing river views delivered an incredible show. The sunset reflecting over the wide expanse of the Columbia River was stunning and the ideal backdrop for winding down after a long day of driving.

      The Hitched4fun Verdict

      Boardman Marina& RV Campground combines pristine green park grounds with unbeatable river views. Whether you are boating, letting kids run free on the grass, or just looking for a calm, scenic rest stop right off the highway, Site Circle B-24 delivers everything a camper could want. We will definitely keep this on our preferred list for future Northwest runs.

      Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars— Highly Recommended by the entire Hitched4fun.com crew!

      Deschutes River State Recreation Area

      Beautiful

      It’s a little noisy from the train but I didn’t mind my Campspot A21 had a perfect view of the deschutes river. And trails nearby

      Lepage Park Campground

      Clean, good for an overnight

      Nice little campground, although the spaces are pretty close together and the downside is, it’s right next to the freeway and a bridge so there’s quite a bit of traffic noise. It is right on the John Day river which is very pretty. Campsites had water and electric and there is a dump station. several pull through, but the back ends were a little difficult to get into as they weren’t angled very much.

      Lone Pine Campground

      Small but beautiful

      This is right next to Big bend camp just a quarter mile down the road. They’re basically the same- pit toilet, 4 large sites, few trees, right next to the river. So quiet and spaces are far apart. No one here all week until the weekend, then it filled up. $5 a night, BLM property

      Threemile Canyon Park

      Quiet and nice

      We’re the only ones here although it’s only 3:30 on a Wednesday. We have a spot right in the water, looking forward to a nice stay. It appears to be free. But we just got here. I’ll edit after we spend the night. There were a few looong trains during the night, across the river but I kinda liked them.

      Oasis BLM Campground

      Beautiful and quiet campsite on the river

      My sister and I stayed here on September 2, 2026, and through all of our traveling from home in Maryland all the way to Oregon, this was our absolute favorite place to camp. It was extremely quiet, as we only saw one other person tenting here that entire night. It gets very cold very quickly and is also super windy due to being in the canyon, but that was not a problem for us. As I said it was very quiet with absolutely zero commotion, except for the train passing through at night which can be a little horrifying, but overall, we enjoy all trains. It was very easy to purchase our $10.50 permit for our vehicle and site at the pay station, despite Capital One/Discover cards not being eligible for purchasing permits. We had a little trouble getting our tent stakes in the ground; the drive and tent sites seemed to all be dirt/gravel. We had no issue pulling into the campground around 8-9 pm, even though it was peak season. There was a vault toilet that was maintained pretty well, and we had no issues using it. Not sure if there are any electric or water hookups; I do not believe there were, but definitely do your research.  We highly recommend this spot for some beautiful views and a chilly night's rest!

      Celilo Park Recreation Area

      Dispersed camping

      The available areas are on the paved parking lot. But the park is beautiful, restrooms are claen, garbage is available, cell reception is great. It's a great place to watch the barges and riverboats go by, and enjoy the windsurfers. Very pleasant park.

    Guide to Condon

    RV parks near Condon, Oregon provide convenient access to the John Day Fossil Beds region while offering essential services for travelers. The area sits at approximately 2,800 feet elevation in the Columbia Plateau, characterized by rolling wheat fields and semi-arid landscapes. Winter temperatures frequently drop below freezing while summer brings hot, dry conditions with strong winds common throughout the year.

    What to do

    Fossil hunting opportunities: Just a short drive from Wheeler County Fairgrounds RV Park, the Clarno Unit of John Day Fossil Beds showcases 44-million-year-old fossils. "Fossil is an awesome little town near the Clarno Unit of the John Day Fossil Beds. There's a wonderful little trail right nearby that takes you up to the city water tank and 360 view of the town and area," notes Jill R.

    Museum exploration: Several educational museums dot the region surrounding Condon camping areas. "Moro also has a must see museum," recommends a visitor to Sherman County RV Park. Other campers mention the Paleo Lands Institute and local historical exhibits worth visiting.

    River activities: The Columbia and Deschutes Rivers offer fishing, swimming and boating options. "Access to the Columbia River. They greeted me without reservations but with 2 nectarines from their orchard," reports Jen F. about Peach Beach RV Park. At Imperial River Co., "right on the river, clean and cell service is great. Great fishing and star gazing and a cute little town a walk away," says Nicole S.

    What campers like

    Budget-friendly stays: Many RV campgrounds near Condon maintain affordable rates year-round. At Sherman County RV Park, one camper notes, "The rates are very low. The location is quiet." For those willing to dry camp, Port of Arlington RV Park & Marina offers significant savings: "Not sure of the price for an RV slot. $10 to dry camp. Beautiful river view. Some tent pads, level area for my van to park and sleep."

    Pristine facilities: Many smaller RV parks compensate for limited amenities with exceptional cleanliness. "While old, the restrooms and showers were very well maintained and absolutely immaculate. And I'm an admitted and unabashed germaphobe," reports Tim T. about camping near Condon.

    Night sky viewing: The minimal light pollution creates prime stargazing conditions. At Antelope RV Park and Campsites, "The stars are absolutely amazing at night. The a-frames are simple, but comfortable and have heat/air conditioning," according to Sheryl H. Other campers frequently mention clear night skies as a highlight.

    What you should know

    Limited connectivity: Cell service varies dramatically throughout the region. In Fossil, one camper reports, "No connectivity in town. No phone, no wifi, no cable, no nothing. Bring lots of books or have your iTunes downloads ready to go....or just enjoy the peace and quiet."

    Small town supplies: Stock up before arriving at more remote locations. "There aren't many supply options in town so if you need major groceries, go to The Dalles, propane go to Wasco, gas go to Biggs or the Dalles," advises one traveler staying near Condon. Fossil does have "the best grocery store in the area so stock up on fresh produce. Movie rentals too!!!"

    Weather considerations: Wind presents the biggest challenge to RVers in the area. "We would advise getting your leveling jacks down without using Legos so as to have extra firm footing. Also, be careful not to leave your awnings out unattended," cautions Jeff & Steff about their stay at Port of Arlington RV Park & Marina. Temperature swings between day and night can be substantial.

    Tips for camping with families

    Educational opportunities: Plan visits to fossil sites with children. "We'll come back again to check out the museum and Paleo Lands Institute," notes Ken W. after staying at Wheeler County Fairgrounds RV Park, highlighting the educational value for families.

    Playground access: Several Condon area RV parks feature play areas for children. "Playground available" notes one review of Port of Arlington, though pets face restrictions in these areas. The community parks near many RV campgrounds provide additional recreation options.

    Affordable cabin options: For families without camping gear, Driftwood RV Park and Antelope RV Park offer cabin alternatives. "The a-frames are simple, but comfortable and have heat/air conditioning. There is a great place to sit and make coffee and chat with the other campers," shares a visitor to Antelope RV Park.

    Tips from RVers

    Pull-through site availability: Several campgrounds offer easy-access sites for larger rigs. A visitor notes, "We did get our fifth wheel in with careful maneuvering," though sites can be "a bit tight" at some locations.

    Train noise awareness: Railroad tracks run through the region, affecting several camping areas. "4 trains rolled by in the middle of the night. They blew their horns every time," reports Shane T. about his stay, suggesting noise-sensitive campers should select sites farther from tracks.

    Seasonal booking recommendations: Campers find the shoulder seasons (spring and fall) offer better availability. During peak summer months, many recommend calling ahead rather than relying on same-day availability, particularly for RV campgrounds in Condon and nearby towns that serve as John Day Fossil Beds base camps.
