"As I rode up to the site, I noticed right away that it was not tucked far away from the amenities such as restrooms, and showers. It was part of one of the campground loops."
"Champoeg State Heritage Area is a beautiful and peaceful campground located near Newberg, Oregon."
$8 - $78 / night
"Just 45 minutes outside of Portland, and near the town of Estacada, is Milo McIver State Park, which I consider to be a quintessential Oregon State Park: lots of huge evergreen trees, large campsites,"
"Estacada lake is within walking distance, and there is salmon fishing within driving distance inside of the park. There is also a "bat" barn that is close by."
$28 - $81 / night
"Close to Portland so it gets a lot of day traffic. Access to river so it has summer activities. Sites for large get togethers."
"A quick 35 minute drive from Portland, Barton Park is an easy destination for family-friendly camping. "
$25 / night
"Close proximity to Multonomah Falls. Pros - bathrooms with electric outlets, free showers, deer come close and are fun to watch, quiet & fairly private stay."
"There is distance between you and other guests but if you want to meet your neighbors you can. They have ADA sites, a lake, play grounds and a welcome center."
"Simple RV park with access to everything. The river is right there, bike trails, grass area, walk to town, everything."
"Right off the exit of 205, it's very easy to get to, and a beautiful spot where the Clackamas flows into the Willamette."
"There’s a fenced in dog area and lawn you can walk on leash. The only downside is that the standard sites are small and very close to neighbors."
"It is located right of the interstate but feels secluded. They have both back in and pull through sites, a little tight with neighbors but I was told it is better than other RV resorts."
"A well cared for location. I think we got the last space! It’s a busy place. A bit of a head scratcher on what brings people here. Certainly located in and around a number of destinations."
$40 / night
"Arrived here late for a single night stay on the way to the Oregon Coast. This is a very convenient stopover for those needing a place to stay near Portland."
"The park's location is very convenient, with easy access to downtown Portland and nearby attractions."
$30 - $150 / night
"One star off for density, you’re right next to each other, and for the very bright street lighting in there. We thought it overkill, but perhaps they have their reasons. Super nice facilities."
"We wanted to find a place that was out of the city and a bit isolated but still a very close drive. A bonus was the proximity to the Columbia river and the nice view."
"Most spots were pull-though with decently wide streets to drive in. Even though it's just off a semi-major street, it's set back enough and surrounded by trees to be more quiet."
GuideAwesome campground. Well maintained. Site spacing is good with lots of privacy between camps. Bathrooms and showers are super nice and clean. Roads and campsites are paved and level. Short drive or hike to the falls.
ScoutThis campground has a unique history. Ask the (current) host. She's happy to tell you what's she's found out. 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 (short bed truck or SUV. (Think "tenters" from the 1950s With that said, it has clean pit toilets and a shared pump spigot. Fire rings and tables in all sites. If youre an overnight and she can find room, you'll have a spot for the night. $25 @ the time of this review
TravelerEasily accessible from the interstate, but you will hear a fair bit of road noise. No showers/running water that I saw. Despite being half full on a Thursday in June, no one was making much noise. Watch out for poison oak. If you just need a spot to get off the road for the night, this is pretty good.
TravelerThere are 3 easy to find campsites, very easy to find and access. 2 or 3 miles before the gravel road was a commercial campground with a store and very friendly folks inside. The gravel road to the sites was not a problem. The sites were well kept. We felt lucky to find this place.
ScoutThis was a last minute choice since I didn’t realize Shellburg Falls Rec area was closed still. I got a spot right on the Santiam River. Half hour drive to Silver Falls state park. Grabbed a shower and kicked back watching the river. Great spot!
TravelerWyeth is a very nice national campground. It’s well maintained, has flushing toilets, and has great access to hiking and biking trails. It also has some cool history noted on signs throughout the campground. We had two young kids with us and enjoyed walking to the waterfall.
It’s definitely best for smaller rigs and tents. We have a short bed truck and a 22’ trailer and had a very hard time getting into the spot we reserved (site 8). The site itself had plenty of room for us but the roads are very narrow and are lined with curbs, so there’s not a lot of room to back into the sites. Another camper offered to trade sites with us, which was very appreciated.
The road noise is pretty loud if you’re in the campground. But once you hike back into the forest, it gets quieter.
4 stars because it’s a nice place but not perfect due to limited spots that can fit our rig, and due to the road noise.
ScoutCute and small, lots of little amenities for cooking, bathroom etc
Your vehicle is not allowed inside the lot but there is usually ample street parking near the gate to get inside.
Stopped for a night during our camping trip so we could still have service for the night to conduct emergency business back home!
GuideQuiet dispersed camping with a few options along NF-2610. Had 4 cars pass by camp in 3 days. Lots of old logging trails to explore on foot. A little buggy but more flies than ‘squitos. Did not need bug spray.
ScoutThe campground is relaxed and quiet. I was in site #2 . The hike to the hot springs is about 30 minutes and if you stay overnight there you only have a couple people up at the springs in the morning.
