    Hult Pond

    Good in a pinch or for 1 night

    There are a few spots off the road here. One large open spot big enough for 2 vehicles and several pull offs. There is a little traffic on the road, mostly big trucks.

    Phoenix RV Park

    Nope

    We stayed here for 11 months. We had a problem with our fridge overheating and the compressor being noisy when the afternoon sun hit the front side. We built an insulated box to solve the problem. Painted it. It wasn't an eyesore. We didn't have more than 5 personal items in our lot. Manager made us take it down. Said there would be a spot in September that she could move us to. Was unwilling to switch around someone who wasn't coming in for 2 months. When September hit, nothing happened. She never did move us. But she did move her RV to the prime spot, facing the way that we needed, up front when it came open. Lots of spots with so much junk under their RVs. We had a whitewater raft under ours and were told that we couldn't have it under there. Instead of paying a ridiculous price for a storage unit, we sold it. We already had one in the RV. Head management was coming through in a couple of weeks and she had to make the place look like she actually enforced the rules? Their sprinkler system quit working. The maintenance person put the sprinkler on the grass on the side of us. My window was wide open. Soaked my couch, left a water stain all across the blinds(RV was 9 months old) and the water stained a handmade quilt on the back of my couch. When I called the office the manager told me to stop yelling at her. I guess a loud voice was yelling? The guy said he didn't see that my window was open, yet I saw it was as I drove up. The manager also charged my debit card for our last couple of days/electricity without my permission. When I called to confront her about it, she hung up on me. I had to call my bank to get my card cancelled but the charge went through. Even though she sent me an email saying I was refunded. I am now trying to deal with the head office about her. Rent also going up to$830 a month. For a parking spot and water. No internet. Lots of sirens. Heard gunfire a lot. Not a great part of town. Lots of homeless people, garbage because it's near the can redemption center.

    A bit past the other listing. Beautiful, just off the road. There is a pullout on both sides of the road to camp. I suggest stopping to scout each to decide what is best for your rig.

    Hee Hee Illahee RV Resort

    Very clean and easy to get to from I5.

    Right off I5 in Salem, OR, a snap to get to and back on to the freeway.  This was our first trip in our new motorhome, and the staff was very helpful, going so far as to suggest a different site that was easier to get into.  There were a couple dog areas that were well placed, and the park was very quiet for the most part.  We will be back, if just for a quick get away from our home in Vancouver.

    Champoeg State Heritage Area Campground

    Nice campground

    I don’t recommend A loop as the sites are right on top of each other, B loop is much better.

    Trails are nice, very safe and quiet all around

    Champoeg State Heritage Area Campground

    This place was the best!

    Park rangers were extremely friendly and helpful. The park is very well maintained. Trails are awesome. The squirrels are fearless and the size of medium sized dogs. Beware of Poison Oak, apparently it’s everywhere. (I accidentally made my wife a small bouquet with some hahahaha) , but seriously the squirrels are huge.

    Albany-Corvallis KOA

    Nice campground - beware of rd noise

    Great campground with nicely spaced and well maintained sites. Clean restrooms, laundry and pool on site. There is a small playground too. Close to Corvalis but you do get a lot of road noise. Would come back if passing through the area.
