Up at the base of Mt Hood, this large resort style campground (operates by Thousand Trails/Encore) offers various areas for camping. There are full RV hookup sites, tent sites, group tent sites, E/W RV hookups and cabins/yurts throughout. It seems most, of not all, RV sites have room for at least a small tent or more and they do allow that. There also is a few group tent sites that I saw.
As for amenities, the campground has a small store that sells the basics and some RV parts, a deli/restaurant, playground and pool.
There are trails to get to the Salmon River, not difficult by any means.
Being just a dozen miles or so from Government Camp, there are so many things to do when you want to get out of the campground.
It’s open year round, and many folks use Mt Hood Village RV Resort as a basecamp for activities for all seasons.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay, though the limited restroom and showers are oddly placed, with access only by walking the loop. There are no trails to get to them, so if you are at the other end, it’s a small hike. The plus is that the restrooms are clean and well stocked.
LegendWe visited Mt. Hood Village RV Resort this past weekend for a two day snow outing adventure and it was the perfect stay for our family in our RV. We started with night skiing at Mt. Hood Skibowl, and after finishing up about 10:30pm we headed a bit back down the mountain to Mt Hood Village. Despite the snowpack on the mountain, Mt Hood Village is just 20 min away, but several thousand feet lower in elevation, so there was no snow to fight with when we arrived.
It was late at 11pm, so what a great surprise to find a very helpful welcome with a gate attendant who had our information from our reservation printed and ready to go with a smile and good directions find our RV site. We pulled in and plugged in within 10 minutes and got the crew ready for sleeping. The site was level, had all the amenities for a full service hook up (although we had a full fresh water tank and relatively empty waste tanks so we didn't hook them up as I was too tired!).
In the morning I walked through the Resort to see all of the many amenities. We had stayed here once before in the summer when we visited the summer activities at Mt Hood Skibowl. The kids rode their bikes then and we enjoyed an active RV resort with many overnight visitors and a lot of regular long stay neighbors. Sites can be close together but the abundance of large trees and multiple sections of the park spreads out the large number of sites it offers for RV sites, and tiny home rentals.
Amenities are many (not all are open due to COVID) and we didn't have time to enjoy all of them, but they are here for your use. I would call ahead to see what is open if particular amenities are important to you (fitness gym, pool, etc. to see if they are currently available or not). There is a senior center for gathering, there is a mountain ski shuttle pick up for a ride to the slopes, also a fitness center, pool, playground, onsite convenience store, restaurant, clubhouse, etc.
We particularly appreciated how close it was located Mt Hood. After a solid night's rest we headed 30 min back up to the backside of the mountain to Bennett Pass. We worked on a snow fort a friend had started and had a great experience finishing out our 24 hour mountain adventure.
Mt Hood Village resort has hundreds of RV sites, tons of amenities, and is part of the Encore RV Resort/Thousand Trails network of properties. If you are headed to winter or summer activities at Mt Hood it is a great option for a stay that is close to the mountain, has access to all the amenities you could want, with personal service, all at a fair price. I highly recommend this property.
GuideWe had a great time at this RV resort, very clean and well organized. The RV spaces have enough room. The ladies from the front office are very nice and helpful and always willing to help. This place also has weekend activities like movies and stuff. We will be coming back.

Nice campground. Clean, plenty of rv hookups.
Short, 5 minute walk to the river.
A train track runs throught the middle of the campground. Trains run every hour or so. VERY loud.
Tent spots were $8. Rv spots were $24.

There are several RV parks in this general area, just off the Columbia River parkway. The other two we visited were the kind where the sheriff/police cars slowly drive through to make sure things aren't getting too crazy. This is not that kind of place.
Smaller (25 spots?) and about half the spots are long-term residents. Lots of grass and trees. Laundromat and showers. Nothing too fancy but also nothing too sketchy.
Good location as far as a jumping off point for the Columbia River Gorge while being not too far from Portland proper.
Legend
The campground at Ainsworth State park feels more like an RV parking lot than an exotic Columbia Gorge camping experience. The majority of the camground it rv hookups with just a few walk in tent sites. Yet, while the campground isn't impressive in itself, it is in an amazing location for exploring neighboring Eagle Creek and the rest of the gorge just steps away!
The parking for the tent sites is close to the walk in trail. There are only 6 tent sites and they can be reserved online so it is not easy to roll up to a free spot in hiking season.
The sites themselves are basic and offer much more privacy than your neighbors in the RV section of the park are getting. There is water near the tent site entrance. Toilets are a bit of a walk from the tent sites.
This site does take credit cards for campground registration.

We stayed at the Base Camp for 2 nights and used it as a base for exploring the Mount Hood Fruit Loop area. First, note that the name has changed to Gorge Base Camp RV Park. It is right across the bridge from Hood River, Or (Note that this is a very NARROW bridge with a $2.00 toll). The park is paved in asphalt, and each site has grass that is well maintained. Some reviewers complain about the noise of the train tracks, but they didn't bother us. The tracks are below the level of the park, and we quite like the train rumble. The highway is at a higher elevation than the park, so that noise didn't particularly bother us either. Perhaps it is just that our van is well sound insulated or we're not light sleepers! The restrooms and shower were quite large and immaculate. There is a gas and go next door within walking distance for incidental purchases. A bit pricey, but the full hook ups were worth it to us on 100 degree days!
Legend
We usually cross the Columbia River into Washington state at Biggs Junction, Oregon. We don’t want to stay at Maryhill State Park in Washington as we had stayed there before. We found this campground on our Benchmark Oregon Atlas.
There are separate areas for RVs who want full hookups and those who don’t plus tenters. We fall in the latter category. Actually, our area was quieter than the full hook up loop which was closer tomI84 and the train tracks.
We had clean vault toilets, potable water, picnic table and fire ring. There were camp hosts for each loop. They sold firewood and were very helpful. There was a garbage dumpster and several recycling bins. The sites were in a grassy area with heavenly scented locust trees. There were geese with their goslings. There were trails along the Deschutes River but our neighbor camper said she saw several large gopher snakes.
The only drawback was the goose poop. And, snakes on the trail.
We would stay here again. B49/$10
TravelerWe decided to make this RV park our maiden voyage in our new Travel Trailer. It was pretty pricey for an RV park at the time we booked (+80/night) but then again there isn't much competition that is actually up on the mountain. It's actually a pretty large park, but doesn't feel like it until you get out and explore a bit as the loops are pretty well disconnected. The sites are typically close together, but some have more separation than others. Most sites are pull through. Full hookups worked well for us. There was a group of tent campers across from us, so it seems they do allow tents in RV spots as well. The Lodge has wifi, the rest of the park does not. The Lodge area has a small store with plenty of RV parts and snacks if you happened to forget something. If you need actual supplies, head up the road a bit to the local Thriftway, a local grocery store.
The main attraction of this place is the nearby recreation. There is a path that leads to the Wildwood recreation area and within the RV park itself there is access to the Salmon River for fishing/swimming. There is easy bike riding in the RV park, and right across Hwy 26 is some of the best Mountain Biking in the country at the Sandy Ridge Trail System. Using this RV park as a jumping off point, there are endless hiking trails and lakes to paddle and explore in the Mt Hood wilderness. You will never get bored in the Mt Hood area.
Some great places to eat in the area are Koya Kitchen, that serves sushi and ramen with plenty of outdoor seating and a full bar. Also nearby and not to miss is the Skyway Bar and Grill with amazing BBQ, full bar and live music on the weekends. Of course there's always Timberline Lodge if you're looking for a bit fancier, you definitely can't go wrong there with the food or the views, or year round skiing/snowboarding.
All in all the Mt Hood RV park is in a good location, which is what you're really paying for, but not somewhere we'd stay longer term due to the cost, noise and size of the place.

This is a great RV Boondocking site. I arrived on a Saturday afternoon. There are plenty of sites on both sides of the road. On the right side of the road there were about 7 trailers camping in one area. Still lots of room. On the left side of the road is a very large open area. In this area there were approximately a total of 6 trailers and motorhomes. There were plenty of areas available. Mostly all were very easy to level your trailer at. 
Scout
Friendly host who answers phone herself. Separate sections for short- and long-term guests. Level pull-through sites with gravel and well- kept grassy areas in between. Modern bath house and laundry area. Lots of potted flowers. Dog-walking area. Distant traffic noise from I-84. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

What a nice city park! Fourteen spaces with full hookups back up to a small creek and surround the city baseball diamond. It's $40 per night, and Maria was so friendly! Came out to greet us when we pulled in. Nice shady spot in the trees. Highly recommend! Don't be fooled by the Dufur RV Park. This is a separate place and much nicer!
Guide
Nice quiet campground, some long term campers. Close to the Columbia River. Beautiful view nice established old timber. It is close to the train track. Enjoyed our stay here
GuideClose proximity to many hiking trails, and town grocery store and gas station. Full rv hookups. We chose this campground because we had been traveling up the coast all week and our kids could use a break from”roughing it” this place was full of amenities...laundry, pool, hot tub, playgrounds, store and wi-fi (which we hadn’t had all week) it was definitely a resort type environment, good for families with kids. Some sites are private(because we asked for one) but many are like a parking lot...I would let them know your preference before you book:)
Ranger
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.

A visit to Beacon Rock State Park is one for the memory book. Not only is the campground itself a woodland wonderland with winding paths through tall old growth forest areas, but the surrounding area of the park itself is impressive with exciting things to do around every corner.
Located along the Columbia River, the park has the asset of water activities while also the beauty of waterfall paths, public spaces ideal for family gatherings and of course the iconic Beacon Rock itself which towers above the surrounding area as one of the more unique look outs you will find.
I visited this park on a warm and blustery day. I started out hiking the Beacon Rock itself where I was impressed by the views and challenged by the ongoing ascent of the switchbacks. Following my challenge of the morning, I moved over the campground itself. Mid afternoon on a busy day, I expected to be turned away as the park was pretty crowded but instead I was impressed to find that the campground still had a few sites available and was able to settle into one for a few hours of R&R.
The sites were large enough to comfortably park my small car and have plenty of room to spread out. While I don’t see this camp being great for excessively large rigs, I did see a few smaller and mid sized units on the loop.
Sites were basically fitted with tables and fire rings while common spigots were located in several locations around camp for those needing water. Both trash and recycling receptacles were placed near the kiosk of camp, something which you will not find unless you travel all the way around the loop.
I enjoyed this site because of the access it had to the trail system beyond the Beacon Rock trail(which is located across the street from the camp). Several trails spur off the back side of the camp near an overflow parking area for those who need more than one car for their adventures.
Even as the camp filled up there was enough spacing that it didn’t seem to be loud and short of a few dogs barking here and there it was pretty quiet into the evening.
A centralized restroom and bath house was such a perk and justified the higher pricing of the site which I did feel was pretty high overall but somewhat fitting for the area. The showers were coin operated with every 3 minutes costing$0.50 a great investment after being on the road and staying at another campground previously which was having water issues which prevented me from being able to take a shower the night before. The showers were hot, the pressure was good and the overall impact of this was game changing!!!

Stayed here after visiting friends in the area on their recommendation. The full hook-up sites are clustered at the entrance, but the rest of the campground is spaced out nicely with lots of trees and privacy. The bathrooms are clean. Bring coins for the shower. No electricity at the sites, but each site has a water hook up. Dump is $10.
With my senior (55+) discount, I only paid $8 night to stay here. It's in town, but feels like you're out in the woods. There's a small stream that runs through and lots of great options to set up near it. I was here on a June weekend and while the full hook-up sites were full, there were only about 6 other campers in the rest of the campground.
Easy access to Gifford Pinchot activities. I will definitely stay here again.

This was our 3rd visit as it’s a great spot just outside Portland. All RVs, full hook-ups, nice grounds, well maintained with nicely kept landscaping. We rolled in after hours, office closed but they are so organized, available spots are clearly indicated with specific instructions. Bike into cute town of Troutdale very close. Right on the river. Pricy at $50 per night
Guide
We stayed here for two nights and snagged some nice waterfront spots, it was a nice area and relaxing. They have a toilet, no shower. The vault toilet is not super gross thankfully, but there are a couple potential long term campers here beware of that. If you stick close to the entrance side then you will have some good spots and not too many neighbors.
Guide
Beautiful park on the river. Spaces are close and full hook up is on available in the center of the park. Host is very present. We were in space 80 it was gravel but not level. This park is right next door to Maryhill State park which also offers camping options. WiFi was spotty.
Legend
There's a couple of things going on at the Bridge of the Gods Motel & RV Park. First, there's the little office where you check in. Cute/quaint and crammed full of things like DVDs you can borrow for free while you're there. The first little strip is where the hotel is. Very basic rooms with almost an old west feel (porch and cabin siding) but also has flowers hanging from baskets, etc.
Then you drive out and around the corner and you get to where the RVs and cabins are. It's mostly a long driveway/road with cabins and spots for RVs on each side. The cabins are more like a trailer-park cabin (long and narrow) but brand new. Not much landscaping and some of the RVs look like they've been there a while.
The "Town"/area is cute with some fun drive-in type restaurants and a really nice park on the river.
Overall, seems like a place where the owners are trying really hard to fix it up but nothing super fun to bring me back yet.
GuideBeautiful camp right along the Deschutes River. Very peaceful except for trains that go by and blow horn. Full hook ups and tent camping areas. Bathrooms are very clean. Good hiking trails along river.

Stumbled upon this place a few summers ago and have returned many times since. This is a perfect spot to post up for a few days with a book. It’s very quiet and the hosts are great! Super friendly and never any issues getting fire wood. Family/four-legged friendly.
Pretty big campground with 80+ sites. I usually try and snag oak site b/c it’s big and really private. Neighboring sites are also wonderful.
It’s first come first serve so I would get there early, especially in the heat of the summer. Open May-November I believe. Bring cash for payment.
Picnic tables, big fire pits with a little spot to cook if you don’t have a stove. RV hookups, water, garbage dump. Should have everything you need.
It’s close to Lost Lake if you’re looking for a day trip. Less than 20 minutes to downtown Hood River. About an hour or so from Portland.
If you like beer, check out Pfriem on your way out.

Nice Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife campground with a dirt boat ramp, seems to serve mostly fishermen. Some sites are right next to the Klickitat River. Some have easy access for larger rigs and space for boat trailers. The campground is right next to SR 142, but it's not really a very busy highway. The Klickitat Trail for mountain biking and hiking is nearby.
We stayed for two nights mid-week in September. The river sites are in sight of each other but not too tightly packed. It did seem that some of those sites were occupied by some long-term residents, although you're not supposed to occupy spots for more than 14 days out of 30. One site ran their generator constantly, so we set up on the other side of the old Icehouse structure right next to the river, where the river noise covered up the generator noise. We had a quiet pleasant stay.
GuideThe full hook up sites are in old growth timber giving each site a feeling is seclusion. The lodge, pool, hot tub and saunas are in good condition. The campground provides easy access to a number of nearby activities. There is no mail service but UPS and FedEx can deliver to your campsite.
GuideMy wife and I arrived on a Friday and left the following Tuesday with our 22’ travel trailer. We stayed in RV4 (one out of the five available RV spots) and it had full hookups. The scenery was amazing and I highly suggest the Beacon Rock/River to Beacon Rock hikes.
We didn’t have any issues at the site, but noticed that spots RV4 and RV5 were relatively distanced from each other, while spots RV1-RV3 were pretty close to each other. The sites are right next to the highway and train tracks as well, with trains running every 30 minutes or so.
All in all, we had a great time and it was a thoroughly enjoyable place to be. Would definitely return!
Guide
Upside: I loved this place! It was beautiful and peaceful. If you want to get away, this is the place. It's got full hook-ups, although there was a boil your drinking water notice on each campsite when I visited. The sites are rustic but look like they are well cared for.
Downside: No cell service at all. Also could not get Starlink to work due to the very tall pines.
I will be back when I don't have to work all week!
