Best RV Parks & Resorts near Elgin, OR

Several RV parks operate near Elgin, Oregon, offering various amenities for travelers with motorhomes and travel trailers. Hu-Na-Ha RV Park, located directly in Elgin, provides full hookup sites with 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections on level gravel pads. Wallowa River RV Park in nearby Wallowa features similar full hookups and accommodates large rigs, operating seasonally from April through October. "Very nice RV park with full hookups and dry camping. The dry camping is next to the river, very pretty," noted one visitor about Park at the River, another option in the region. Grande Hot Springs RV Resort, situated near La Grande, offers spacious 90-foot pull-through sites that easily accommodate large motorhomes and fifth wheels, with both 30 and 50-amp electrical connections available.

Seasonal considerations affect RV camping availability throughout the area. Many parks maintain year-round operations, though mountain parks like Wallowa Lake State Park experience reduced services during winter months when water hookups may be disconnected. Dump stations are available at most full-service parks, with an additional public dump station located in Ukiah approximately 8 miles west of Lane Creek on Highway 244. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with stronger signals near larger towns and potential dead zones in more remote mountain locations. Pet policies generally allow leashed dogs in designated areas, though several reviews mention inconsistent enforcement of leash requirements. Between La Grande and Enterprise, travelers encounter moderate elevation changes on mountain roads that may require downshifting for larger motorhomes.

    Grande Hot Springs RV Resort

    Great relaxing campground with wonderful views

    We've been here several times and will continue to visit. About a hundred pull through spots, full hookup. Relaxing informal campground with gravel roads and grass strips between sites. Level w easy entry/exit. Hot spring on site in wildlife preserve across the road. Many trains pass by about a quarter mile away and we didn't mind the relatively low noise trains. Interesting college town la grande nearby. Grand ronde River and Morgan lake are interesting

    RV Resort Four Seasons

    Lots of hookups

    This site was right next to Fort Walla Walla, with a park and dog park. Not much else here but weird animal statues and long-term RVers. Lots of hookups for RV and trailers. No tent or car camping. The bathrooms were still closed June 2021, need to use your own hookups.

    Grande Hot Springs RV Resort

    Lovely campground and location!

    We stayed at Grande Hot Springs RV Resort in June and September 2021. We really enjoyed our stay at this park. We stayed in site 2 which was a large pull-thru site for our fifth wheel. Sites are long, flat, and level with 50 amp, water and sewer hookups. We enjoyed the great walking paths around the perimeter of the park to walk our dogs. The pool and hot tub are heated geothermally and are warm, soothing, and oh, so relaxing. We can’t say enough about the professional staff, who were warm, friendly, and helpful. We even had some packages delivered here, which was a big bonus for us. We a lot of other friendly campers here. The WiFi is top-notch. This is our favorite Oregon campground and we highly recommend a stay here. For videos on the campground, visit YouTube: Jeff & Steff’s Excellent Adventure.

    Anthony Lakes Mountain Resort Campground

    Beautifully maintained campground in the Blue Mountains

    We stopped by Anthony Lakes on our way back to the Willamette Valley from Baker City. The campsite is on a property that becomes a ski resort in the winter (it's at over ~7000 ft). The campground was immaculately maintained and had lots of recreation options. On weekends in the summer, the ski lift becomes a mountain biking lift, there are hiking trails, and of course lakes. The lakes themselves are pretty small, but big enough for some kayak adventuring and swimming. We got caught in a summer thunderstorm, so we were glad we had a shelter to pop up.

    Our site was private with access to the lake trail. Pit toilets, but everything was very clean. There are also walk-up sites around the back of the lake which had more mosquitos, but were very spacious.  It looks like there is one yurt on top of the mountain. The mountain bike path goes by it, and it looks like it has great views.

    This was an easy drive from Baker City, a little far from Portland unless you're going to make a multi-day vacation out of it. On the way through the mountains, there's plenty of gold mining history, a historical dredge, and some ghost towns to stop by. 

    Lots of chipmunks, so watch what you leave out (even momentarily).

    Park At The River

    Beautiful spot but not really camping

    Park at the River is in a beautiful location but it’s a full blown RV park, not a campground. The big rigs are really packed in. The dry camping spots by the river are great until the neighbors run a generator all day long. There are all kinds of amenities within walking distance: stores, restaurants, mini golf, etc.

    Grande Hot Springs RV Resort

    Grand Hot Springs

    Nice place, typical RV Resort, everyone side by side with very little shade. Autumn took my reservation and I specifically asked for a good place for wifi for a meeting. Autumn accommodated and put me in #51, close the office. Staff were friendly. Front office and laundry area very clean. Prices for items in the little store were reasonable. 50 amp electric if needed. Good wifi and cell service (Sprint), if sprint was good, everyone else probably is too. Did not go in the pool. They have an adults only time starting at 9P-11P which is nice. $55/night

    Grande Hot Springs RV Resort

    Beautiful Valley Views

    Very quiet wide open campground surrounded by snowy peaks. Full hookups at all sites, mostly 30 amp service but many sites have 50 amp also. Great value for the money in a beautiful setting.

    Grande Hot Springs RV Resort

    Huge sites. Delightful hot pools

    This is a big Park with lots of spaces between the sites. The sites themselves are very long. They could hold very big rigs and their tow vehicles. The staff was very helpful and friendly. There are two pools, one at 100° and one at 90 °. If you get off at exit 265, there is a good paved Road. If you get off at exit 268, there are three miles of gravel road.


Guide to Elgin

The Elgin area offers camping in Oregon's Blue Mountains region, situated between 2,600 to 4,000 feet in elevation, providing diverse terrain for campers. The region experiences distinct seasons with hot, dry summers and cold winters that can limit camping options from November through April. Several private and public camping facilities operate within a 45-mile radius of this northeastern Oregon town.

What to do

Fishing opportunities: At Minam State Recreation Area, campers can access productive fishing spots along the Minam River. "The views from this campsite are great! There is access to great swimming holes from this campground," notes Kelly N. The park is located near the confluence of the Minam and Wallowa rivers, making it a strategic base for anglers.

Hot springs soaking: Visitors can enjoy natural mineral waters at Grande Hot Springs RV Resort. "The soaking pools were amazing. They even had a twilight soak. Very peaceful and relaxing campground," reports Cheryl S. The resort features two soaking pools with different temperatures, available for evening use until 11 PM.

Wildlife viewing: Nature trails provide opportunities to observe local wildlife. "Nature trail along the creek was cool. Saw huge bull frogs, tadpoles, and fish. Also saw mule deer," mentions a Grande Hot Springs visitor. At Minam State Recreation Area, campers regularly spot deer, with one reviewer noting, "Whitetail doe with 2 fawns frequented the campground."

What campers like

Natural hot springs: The mineral-rich soaking pools at Grande Hot Springs RV Resort receive consistent praise. "I was grateful for the health benefits of the mineral soak. The resort is well taken care. It's new and clean," writes ursala K. The pools operate with extended hours including twilight soaks for guests.

River access: Campsites near water rank highly among reviewers. "For $6 (!) you get a great spot literally just a few dozen feet from the water. Fan-freaking-tastic!" shares Tom B. about Minam State Recreation Area. The riverside locations provide cooling opportunities during hot summer months when temperatures frequently exceed 85°F.

Clean facilities: Campground cleanliness stands out in many reviews. At Blue Valley RV Park in nearby Walla Walla, visitors appreciate "Clean bathrooms, showers, laundry, and gathering space," according to Rich J. Another reviewer adds, "Nicely spaced concrete pads. Shower, bathrooms an laundry were clean an well kept."

What you should know

Seasonal operations: Several rv parks near Elgin, Oregon limit their operating seasons. Wallowa River RV Park runs from April 15 to November 1, while Scenic Meadows RV Park near Joseph operates May 1 to October 1. This reflects regional weather patterns that bring snow and freezing temperatures to the area from late fall through early spring.

Cell service limitations: Connectivity varies significantly throughout the region. "There is no cell service at the campground," reports Rod D. about Minam State Recreation Area. At rv parks Elgin Oregon and surrounding areas, service tends to be stronger near towns but decreases in canyon and remote mountain locations.

Road conditions: Access to some campgrounds requires navigation on unpaved roads. For Minam State Recreation Area, a reviewer cautions, "The only downside was the 2 mile, narrow, gravel road into the park. A little bit of a nail biter with a bigger rig." Similar access challenges exist for several camping areas in the Blue Mountains.

Tips for camping with families

Look for swimming areas: River access provides natural recreation for children. "We enjoyed a refreshing dip in the river after a hot drive," shares one family about Minam State Recreation Area. The gradual entry points along the Minam River offer safer swimming for children during summer months.

Consider activity centers: Some campgrounds offer additional entertainment options. At Scenic Meadows RV Park, "You are surrounded by wildlife, and entertained by the go carts. They even had food trucks," notes Tracy M. These added amenities help keep children engaged during longer stays.

Check bathroom facilities: Clean restrooms make family camping more comfortable. "WOW what a beautiful bathhouse! Super Duper Duper Clean!!!! You could eat off those floors," exclaims a reviewer about Scenic Meadows RV Park. Family-friendly campgrounds typically maintain their facilities with daily cleaning.

Tips from RVers

Site leveling needs: Prepare for potentially uneven parking surfaces. One RVer at RV Resort Four Seasons advises, "The sites are annoyingly un-level. Make sure you have pads and a septic ramp." Bringing leveling blocks is essential for comfortable camping at many area sites.

Route planning: RV drivers should research road conditions before travel. "If you approach the campsite from the East, be prepared for a bumpy road. The road from the West (LaGrande) is much better even if it takes you a few miles out of the way," advises Bill B. about Grande Hot Springs RV Resort.

Hookup placement: RV utility connections vary in location between campgrounds. "The utilities are towards the back of the pad, so I had to use two sewer hoses to get from the main black tank on our Brinkley G model," shares an RVer at Blue Valley RV Park. Bringing extension hoses ensures proper connections regardless of site configuration.
