Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Pleasant Hill, OR

This is one of my favorite campgrounds that we’ve come across in OR, it’s very charming & quaint. Perfect place for dog owners as they have the best dog park; it’s actually the community dog park, so they’re always dogs/people there. The sites here are spaced enough so you don’t feel like you’re in a traditional RV park. The hosts are nice, grounds are clean and there’s great opportunities for walking & fishing.

It’s dog friendly with a dog park. During the week is better just because of younger groups who like loud music and some late nights.

More of a motor home campground, although there were some tents. Nice dog park at entrance. 

Pretty quiet.

Small, convenient campground near Eugene. Large dog park adjacent, which is very convenient when traveling with your four legged friends.

This park has everything! Clean bathrooms, laundry, full hook ups, dog park, river access... all within a 10 minute drive to downtown Eugene! I love this campground.

I've stayed here a number of times and each time it's a pleasure. Nice big sites, super clean park and facilities and nice staff. I personally stay in all sorts of locations, but usually stop here for a couple of nights to take advantage of the great stores in Eugene to stock up before heading off for more primitive camping. This park is pet friendly with 2 reasonable dog yards and there doesn't seem to be a quantity or breed problem (I'm parked next to a rig with 2 pitbulls, a small mixed breed and 2 cats). Everyone I've encountered in here is super respectful. They also have a small inexpensive laundry. While walking around with my 4 dogs, I noticed they have Tepees for rent also. I always feel safe and comfortable when I stay here. The only downside is that it's right off I-5 so lots of freeway noise.

Loved this park! The campsites were nicely situated so you weren’t right on top of each other and the park was great. There is an off leash dog park and access to the river. The laundry and showers were closed due to COVID but the public restrooms were still open and were just fine. Would definitely stay here again

Located near Eugene, OR, this is one of the few local campgrounds near us.

Open year round and it is usually full year round as well. Reservations are definitely a must for this small campground!

This campground has all the amenities! Full hook up sites, toilets/ showers, laundry, swimming/boat ramp, picnic area, and even a dog park. Wide variety of site sizes and can accommodate most RV sizes. There are also hiking trails nearby.

Close to town so you can easily get forgotten supplies or groceries. Perfect stay for a quick overnight when in town for Ducks games or just getting out of the house!

Definitely recommend checking this one out if your in the area!

It's $33 a night, but hey, at least you get a lot of somethings for it. These are 32 reservable sites, pretty well spread out with - bonus - vegetation between some campsites. Overall it kind of has a little bit of a sanitized, urban feel with what's on the outskirts of the campground, but it's fairly open and roomy, there's a boat ramp to the large McKenzie River, an active park host in an active go-cart, a volleyball court, lots of room to walk and walk dogs (includes a 2-acre dog park), horseshoe pits and, because it's just a few miles north of Eugene I suspect, wi-fi (that could be a good or bad thing). Drinking water, flush toilets? But of course. You won't be blown-away, but you won't be disappointed. A clean, well-organized camping area, a step up from KOAs for those true campers out there (and you know who you are...).

This campground is open and there is no warning in effect. I have no idea why The Dyrt has inaccurate info on this page. I tried to update the listing but there is no option to correct it so I contacted customer service but they said they would not help. The campground definitely is not closed, though, and there is no warning or any other advisory in effect.

As other reviews have stated, this is a great place to stay for a couple nights if you are in the area for a specific reason. It isn’t a great place if you’re just planning to hang out at the campsite. The trail along the river is pretty limited and the sites are close together. The one thing about some of the full hookup pull-through sites that was a huge bummer is the picnic table and fire pit are on the wrong side of your camper. If you want to sit at the picnic table or have a fire at your site, you’re sitting along the main road instead of with your camper in between to give some privacy. I have not seen this at other campgrounds. Probably because most people don’t want to be in the middle of the road when they’re hanging out. Our site was one of the ones like this and we tried sitting out there for a bit one evening but it was just awkward. Not every full hookup pull-through site was like this but a lot of them were so choose wisely if you can.

The camp host is super nice, firewood is available at $5/bundle, and there is a dog park. The dog park is not exclusive to the campground, however, so it’s very busy since it’s public. $35/night for a basic site and $38.50/night for full hookups. There is quite a bit of open grassy area, which was nice to walk the dogs through, but again everything is public so you’re sharing it with day use people or anyone who wants to come in and hang out for a bit. The bathrooms are functional and pretty clean, although the water does not work consistently in the sink in the women’s restroom near the first few sites. There are showers and laundry.

Tent campers beware! The tent sites have cats that roam the area and the world is their litter box. The smells at night were rough. The cats caused dogs to bark all night. People playing loud music throughout the night. Screaming kids and adults all night. People throwing rocks. And again, the smells are awful. Very Overpriced. Go up the road or just find somewhere else. I camp 6-7 times per week for the last few months across the country. This is by far the WORST campground I’ve ever encountered.

Mallard Creek Golf and RV Resort is located about 3 miles from Waterloo (or 8 miles from Lebanon, Oregon and 11 miles from Sweet Home, Oregon). It is off the beat and design for those serious golfers. The RV resort is design for trailers of any size with 30 to 50 amps electric, also includes, water, sewage hook ups, cable, and a cement table. The Club House has showers, bathrooms, and laundry facility. The club house has a wonderful party space with TV, gas fireplace (no fires at sites), tables for games and social gatherings. Free WIFI, your cel phone and data plans work wonderful in this area. Dogs are allowed, but no pet area to run loose. Kids are welcome but not gear up for things to do unless they love to golf too.

Mallard Creek is gear up for the serious golfers so the summer has special packages for the RV site with golfing from Memorial day weekend to the end of September. For non-golfers the RV resort is available between October 1 to the Thursday before Memorial day.

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.

Tucked back in the deep forest lays old french pete, everything’s covered in moss and old growth, the camp host was so sweet and was willing to help with anything. The bathrooms were cleaned nightly! The river running behind the campground is beautiful and swimmable.

One night there were 4 of us and one time we woke up to hearing a cougar screaming, it was definitely close by, under 400ft. We managed to go to bed and woke up around 4am by a huge cat running past our heads in the tent. This was approximately June 2021. There are a lot of cougars so beware it traveling with dogs or any animal, keep them inside with you. Definitely a gem.
