    Oxbow Regional Park

    Close to the city with awesome playgrounds

    The park just added two nature playgrounds that are pretty fantastic. One of the new playgrounds, right before the boat launch, features a trail with a mud kitchen, two a-frame tents and a big area where you can use fallen logs and branches to build shelters.

    The other nature playground is right across from the old playground (still in use) and has a wooden water course with a hand pump and an elevated wooden plank course.

    Camping can be a little loud since it's a popular spot and there are no pets allowed, but it's barely 30 minutes away from Portland and right on the Sandy River.

    Whitcomb Creek County Park

    Quiet even on a busy holiday weekend

    Stayed in Yurt #2 in the Yurt village on Fathers Day weekend. There was also a fishing tournament this weekend, so the park was completely full. The Yurt Village stayed very quite. Most noise was the Trucks/Boat coming and leaving the boat ramp which is about 400yds away. 

    Yurt #2 & 3 are deluxe yurts. All this means is you get a larger deck and propane firepit. To use the firepit you need to bring your own propane, large 20lb style. The Yurts have solar lights inside and out, not sure how long they run, but they lasted us a weekend with conservative use. There is 2 pit style bathrooms in the yurt village. Bathrooms are located at the parking lot.

    The yurt village is a ways from the RV/Tent sites. Not a quick or easy walk. 

    Parking at the yurt village is a little walk from #2 and #3. Best to bring a wagon or such to help transport. Its about 100yd walk each way. 

    There are 3 beds, one full side bottom with a twin bunk on top and one full size futon. There is a dining table and 4 chairs. There is no running water, bring your own water. I saw a fountain near the parking lot, but did not test it. 

    While it says no pets, one other yurt had two well behaved dogs. The park knew and didnt stop them, so make your own decision with your pets but dont ruin it for others please.

    Weather was pretty good for us. No mosquitoes, though lots of nats but able to sit outside all day without being bothered too much.

    Cape Kiwanda RV Resort and Marketplace

    Cute cabin!

    We headed to the Pacific City in search of fresh air in mid September when much of Oregon was consumed by wildfire smoke. The friendly staff at Cape Kiwanda RV Resort were very welcoming and we opted to stay in one of their cute cabins as rain was forecasted. Cabin N was comfortable and had electric heat, a TV, dorm fridge, microwave, porch swing, outdoor water, BBQ grill, picnic table and outdoor firepit.  The campground had cute wild bunnies hoping around, and amenities such as a playground, full market, and pool.  It's located a quick walk from a beautiful sandy beach, brew pub, coffee shop and other convenient options are nearby.

    Mallard Creek Golf and RV Resort

    Camping for the golf lovers

    Premier RV Resort

    Wow! The yurts are amazing

    Last summer I rented a yurt at Premier RV Resorts, Salem OR, and I can’t wait to stay there again!

    Registration was quick and easy. Plenty of parking. An amazing gift shop and small store. The bathrooms were SPOTLESS and keyless/ code entry, and it was almost like they were our private bathrooms.

    We had a darling porch with bbq and picnic table, Keurig coffee maker, 2 bedrooms, dining table and living room too! Cable tv as well.

    What an amazing place!!

    Champoeg State Heritage Area Campground

    Great place for Families!

    I stayed in the 1 of 5 tent spaces. They were a bit close to the other sites, but still large enough for a few tents if needed. There was only 1 parking lot for the tent/cabin spaces, so had to carry all my stuff about 100 feet. The bathrooms were clean and well lit at night. The bike paths through the campground/park were great and lots of people were using them all day. I walked the path around the entire park, which took me about 3 hours. Along the way got to see the Champoeg Heritage site with period piece actors, wide open spaces, and the Willamette River. There was a huge playground for the kids. There was also a large field area for dogs to roam around, just no fence. For being so close to the greater Portland area it felt like we were much further away. I would recommend this place, just make reservations early.

    Mount Hood National Forest Armstrong Campground - TEMP CLOSED FOR FIRE

    Nestled By the Clackamas, Very Clean

    This is a beautiful campground nestled down by the Clackamas River. You can hear it rushing by the campsites, which are right down by the water. Each campsite has a nice sturdy picnic table and a fire pit with built-in grill. The restrooms at some of the cleanest, nicest-smelling pit toilets I've ever seen at a campground, conveniently located within the campground.

    Each site was generously roomy. Our camping trip was, in part, a chance to test drive the new Chevy Blazer SUV. It's a big car but there was no problem maneuvering it through the campground or parking it at our site. We might have even been able to fit another, smaller vehicle too if we had more than one party with us. We had no problem pitching two two-man tents and getting out two camp chairs, and would have had room for a third easily. And although the campground is in sight of one of Oregon's classic pretty bridges and there is some road noise, it's balanced out by the white noise of the Clackamas and wasn't a problem.

    Nearby Fish Creek campground was much busier than Armstrong on a rainy Wednesday night, but we had Armstrong almost entirely to ourselves. A vanlifer left sometime that evening and a camper in a pickup truck with two kayaks appeared close to bed time. Other than that, everything was quiet, secluded and just right for relaxing. We even got to see a bald eagle the next morning!

    Oxbow Regional Park

    Heart of the forest

    This place was amazing! The camp ground is in the middle of the forest. They have hot showers, flushing toilets and every site has a fire pit. 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. Awesome location just 30 minutes away from Portland.

    Sandbeach

    Not great for a quiet nature getaway

    Camped on the night of July 3rd. Campsite 58, one of the furthest away from the dunes but you couldn’t escape the noise - ATV riders/generators did not adhere to quiet hours (10pm-7am), the engines quieted down around 1am but then started back up around 5:30am. Great if you like the dune buggy lifestyle but not if you are looking for a serene/private excursion. The hiker/biker camps offer more visual privacy but you can still hear the off road vehicles on the dunes.


Guide to Keizer

Keizer sits at the Willamette Valley's heart with elevations ranging between 120-180 feet above sea level. This area experiences moderate rainfall averaging 40 inches annually, creating lush landscapes perfect for camping. Most campgrounds near Keizer remain open year-round due to the region's mild climate, though winter camping requires preparation for temperatures that can drop to the mid-30s.

What to do

Disc golf courses: Milo McIver State Park Campground offers twin 18-hole disc golf courses that attract serious competitors. "Home of the annual Beaver State Fling, a PDGA sanctioned National Tour event, Milo McIver is an excellent host for the international players that come to the Pacific Northwest for a chance to win the tournament," notes Steve C.

Hiking historical trails: At Champoeg State Heritage Area Campground, visitors can walk a three-mile trail to Butteville Store. "I walked the path around the entire park, which took me about 3 hours. Along the way got to see the Champoeg Heritage site with period piece actors, wide open spaces, and the Willamette River," shares Ashley B.

Kayaking and fishing: Waterloo County Park provides river access with designated areas for safety. "Great little spot for a family get together and overnight stay... On the river good fishing... but be aware... current is swift.. swimmers seem to get in trouble every year here," warns Len S.

Explore historical landmarks: The Champoeg Heritage site features actors in period costume demonstrating pioneer life. "The farmhouse fascinated my boys... they got to water the garden with a water pump and buckets!" writes Leslie C.

What campers like

Clean facilities: Silver Falls State Park Campground maintains high standards for its amenities. "Awesome 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," reports Richard H.

River access: Many campgrounds offer direct water access for recreation. "The campground is very well laid out and there are plenty of hiking and biking trails right from your campsite. The hosts are super friendly and helpful," shares Thamar D. about Champoeg State Park.

Biking trails: Multiple campgrounds feature dedicated cycling paths. "Champoeg State Park is on the Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway, and a great place to camp if you want to do a long biking getaway... Biking the loop to St. Paul is a fun countryside ride," Stephanie Z. explains.

Family activities: Camp Dakota offers numerous structured activities. "We had a great time at Camp Dakota. Our yurt was comfortable and we enjoyed disc golf, archery, axe throwing, a fun general store and an escape room. We came in thinking it was a little on the spendy side, to ending up thinking it was a bargain," notes Bjorn S.

What you should know

Winter flooding: Some campgrounds experience seasonal issues. "If you plan on booking a trip in the late Fall/winter, be sure to call ahead of your trip. I've been here in the fall when more than half the campsites were flooded or filled with standing water," advises Blake F. about Devil's Lake State Recreation Area Campground.

Cell coverage varies: Connectivity can be limited at certain locations. "Barely got 1 bar of 4g at the welcome center. There's a guest wifi in the parking lot there too but it's 2 miles further to the camp ground and texts hardly go through," reports Zach S. about Oxbow Regional Park.

Site privacy: Campground layouts differ significantly. "Since you're in the valley, the campground is mostly just flat land with very little tree cover. You'll definitely be able to see your neighbors whether you're in the tent or rv area," notes Stephanie Z. about Champoeg State Park.

Reservation requirements: Popular campgrounds fill quickly, especially for glamping close to Keizer, Oregon. "I stayed in the 1 of 5 tent spaces. They were a bit close to the other sites, but still large enough for a few tents if needed... I would recommend this place, just make reservations early," advises Ashley B.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several campgrounds feature dedicated play areas. "Loop B is highly our favorite because it is smaller and more private and close to the river. We'll go back year after year. Our kids had a blast!" reports Scott W. about Champoeg State Park.

Adventure activities: Some sites offer structured activities for various ages. "We did a group site and once we got the wristbands on the kids, they went off and explored and had a lot of fun. The staff is #1 safe, then #2 they are super fun," Jason S. shares about Camp Dakota.

Swimming safety: Monitor water activities carefully. "There was a huge playground for the kids. There was also a large field area for dogs to roam around, just no fence," notes Ashley B., while Len S. cautions, "current is swift.. swimmers seem to get in trouble every year here" at Waterloo County Park.

Off-season considerations: Weather impacts facility availability. "Spring and summer can be a bug challenge so bring lots of insect repellant!" advises C.W. about Champoeg State Park.

Tips from RVers

Site dimensions: Premier RV Resort near Salem has limitations to consider. "We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow. We were in site 57 for 4 days in mid September. Very friendly staff. The CG is clean, quiet and well maintained, but the sites are fairly short and narrow," Ray & Terri F. explain.

Utility connections: Some parks have infrastructure quirks. "The sewer connections are not threaded, so you'll have to weigh down your sewer hose," notes Ray & Terri F. about Premier RV Resort.

Winter accessibility: Luxury camping options remain available year-round. "The spots were level, no fire rings only a few picnic tables but caters to RVs only so most of us have tables and chairs. The bathrooms/showers were very clean and well cared for," reports Tim G. about Emerald Valley RV Park.

Internet connectivity: Network quality varies considerably. "AT&T coverage was fair, ranging from 2-4 bars of 5G with speeds up to 19 MB/s. The CG WiFi speed varied considerably, from next to useless up to 1 MB/s," shares Ray & Terri F.
