I really wanted to give 5 stars, but they have far too many permanent residents, which makes the campground look un-kept. The grounds were ok, bathrooms were clean, price was fair, large spaces , and very good customer service.

September camp
Had a great few nights at this awesome campground with friends . All sites are very large, flat and most have bonus room for hanging out or visiting. The views of Mt Adams are just awesome. There are hiking trails and several places to enjoy trout lake while hiking. There were deer on the trail today. This campground is very clean and has ice available along with propane fill if you need it. We will return.

Clear Lake Campground
Decent Camping Location
This is a decent camp spot within an hour and a half of Portland metro. It has limited services, potable water, garbage and pit toilets. The water was nice, plenty deep for paddling or wading. It is pretty small, so not too many sites.
There was a Camp Host present thankfully and daily Sheriff drive by during the weekend. This was welcome due to a few obnoxious party groups. One in particular turned the forest into a rave with lights that flashed into tents, which was irritating. I think the Sheriff spoke to them because they headed out the next day. We had a nice weekend but I probably wouldn’t stay much longer than that in the future.

Cascade Locks KOA
Awesome spot, book early if able
I recently had the pleasure of staying here and I can’t recommend it highly enough. This campground offers a fantastic range of amenities that made our stay both comfortable and enjoyable. The showers were clean and well-maintained, providing a refreshing end to our days of exploration. The WiFi was reliable, which was perfect for staying connected and planning our next adventures.
The game room was very nice and the pool was a great way to cool off and relax. What truly sets this KOA apart, though, is its friendly atmosphere. The staff were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed for a memorable stay.
One thing to note is that a train runs through the area. It can be quite loud, especially at first, but we found that we quickly got used to it and it didn’t detract from our overall experience.
Location-wise, it’s hard to beat. The campground is nestled close to the breathtaking Columbia River Gorge, making it an ideal base for exploring this stunning area. The convenience of being so close to such natural beauty added an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip.
If you’re looking for a place that combines great facilities with a prime location and a warm, friendly vibe, this is the perfect choice.

Lost Lake Resort And Campground — Mt. Hood National Forest
Inaccessible and Disappointing Experience at Lost Lake, Oregon
I had high hopes for my visit to Lost Lake, Oregon, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a major letdown. Despite its reputation, this location is far from being accessible for handicapped visitors. The handicapped parking is inconveniently located nowhere near an ADA-accessible lakeside spot. We were forced to camp in the parking lot near a bathroom, which was hardly the experience we were hoping for.
The only positive aspect of our trip was the stunning view of the lake and Mt. Hood, but even that couldn't make up for the numerous shortcomings. The drive and entry cost were simply not worth it, especially considering that most day-use sites are first-come, first-served. By the time we arrived, all the sites that were accessible for someone with disabilities were occupied by individuals who clearly did not require the access.
To make matters worse, the overall organization and management of the site were severely lacking. There was no effort to ensure that handicapped visitors had fair access to the lakeside areas. It felt incredibly unfair and frustrating to see those who didn't need the accessible spots taking them up, leaving us with no options. In summary, if you or someone in your party requires accessible facilities, I strongly advise you to avoid Lost Lake, Oregon. The beautiful scenery cannot compensate for the lack of accessibility and consideration for handicapped visitors. This was a thoroughly disappointing experience that I wouldn't recommend to anyone in need of accessible amenities.
Tony G.GuideLost Lake Resort And Campground — Mt. Hood National Forest
Fantastic campground and area
On our way to Alaska for the SF Bay Area we stopped at several different camping locations along lakes and mountains. The only one we went out of our way to stay at when coming back was Lost Lake Campground. The sites are plenty big, have tables and fire pits. The entire area is amply wooded to provide privacy and the sense of seclusion. The bathrooms were clean and always had TP. There is running water spigots dispersed throughout the camping areas. If I'm ever in the area it will be the 1st place I go.

Clean, Relaxing and a little bit windy
Camped at site 5 with an E-Pro 19FD. Sites are back in and have well maintained level sites of crushed gravel. The first time I haven't had to level the trailer side to side. Water and Electrical hookups well maintained. Site is all gravel.
Walking to the Columbia River and viewing the petroglyphs is an enjoyable stroll. Restrooms and Showers are well maintained and clean.
Watch out for the incredible amount of goose poop. There was an area roped off so as not to disturb a nesting Eagle that could be viewed with the naked eye.
If your a fan of trains you are right next to the BNSF tracks.
Best Park Hosts that I have ever meet. Very knowledgeable on local sites and and things to do/visit. They are constantly busy keeping the park in order.

Antelope RV Park and Campsites
Awesome campground
Antelope is a strange and beautiful little place. Part ghost town, part living community, it is often a welcome oasis on the Oregon Outback cycling trail. The path north out of Prineville is a beautiful ascent-descent of the Ochoco Mountains, which is pretty exhausting. If weather is a factor (we arrived in cold, wet and punishing wind) Antelope is a much better place to camp than Shaniko which is 8 miles up on a plateau.
The RV Park is a work in progress. We arrived without a reservation and were given a very nice spot to camp behind an old diner. Some small a-frame cabins are available with more being built, and a few spots to park campers with sewer dump and 30 amp hookups.
Overall I give this campground an outstanding rating. Hospitable, well-equipped, well-situated… great spot.

The Ultimate Mt Hood Base Camp
Not my normal camping scene, but decided to for an early summer ski session with the kids, we didn't want to completely rough it, but also didn't want to pay hotel prices. So, one of the standard cabins here was the perfect compromise. Roof over our heads, actual beds, room for three of us to be able to gear up for the day. But still had a fire pit outside, and picnic table for outdoor cooking. (Also the standard cabins don't have bathrooms, so you still need to go to the shared restrooms.)
The property overall was really nice, lots of amenities. We also took a walk through the RV/Tent camp sites. Its very similar to a KOA style of resort. We enjoyed it for what it was.

Summer Camp
It can be super crowded, but this place is a gem. It reminds me of summer camp. There’s a store, rental boats, etc. The pit toilets and lack of running water keep things in perspective. I wish they would cap the number of day users though. Once they all leave, it is really peaceful at night.

Pretty amazing State Park, lucked on weather. Trails on either side are both nice cruisers on bikes - green runs, but can make them more work, and the views are sublime.  The park amenities were top-notch, including a nice windbreak. Stars at night were spectacular.

Sweet little campground. Mostly close together, family oriented sites. Early September there was still plenty of water in the reservoir and they were still renting kayaks and boats, which was appreciated given the glorious weather. Moderate Verizon cell signal. Enough to text and receive and send email. Laid-back and friendly place.

Totally awesome spot, hosts could be more resz
Nestled among tall trees, almost on the lakefront - this campground location is ideal! The lake water was very clear and several families were paddle boarding. Unfortunately we didn't think to check the air quality before we left - it was pretty bad due to forest fires. The vault toilets were clean enough, but they ran out of toilet paper. I was glad I brought some. The rest of the campground was very clean! I would have appreciated the hosts enforcing the no-fire rule that is in effect right now, since fire danger is extremely high. There were signs posted all over but we saw several campfires at night.

Beautiful campground
We have stayed at Lost Lake a couple of times now, once in a tent and once in a yurt. The lake is fun for fishing and renting a little boat or canoe to get onto the water. The store has a little of everything, though as you would expect, a little pricey.
Derek B.GuideMt Hood Village Resort
Great Place to Start Mt. Hood Adventures
First off there are some parking lot style loops at this location but there are also a ton of excellent tree'd spots as well. We have stayed twice already this summer and have one more trip booked. Our kids love cruising the loops on their bikes and stopping in at the playground. We have enjoyed quiet comfortable stays even with the park mostly full The store is stocked well and priced fairly. The grounds are well kept and this summer the pool area is undergoing a major remodel, a bummer but not a huge loss for us.

Gorgeous place!
What a beautiful RV park! Large spaces, easy to drive through, 30 and 50 amp, most sites had full hookups with fire pits and picnic tables. There is a park right on the lake, wonderful wildlife viewing, an adult size set of swings just made my day. Took me back to small kid times! Wifi available at the pavilion near the park. Very clean bathrooms. Large dumpsters. and a dump station. We also saw a propane fill station as well. We will definitely be back.

Out of the way, a bit, but that was part of what we enjoyed. Felt far removed from "The City" and the drive was scenic.
Very popular campground. We tent camped at this one. Good tent sites shared in our site.
Clean shower facilities. Boat rentals, Great walk around the lake.
Our site seemed very private in amongst the trees, even though the resort was busy. Would recommend!
