  Fort Stevens State Park Campground

  Great place

  We love Fort Stevens. Everything from backpack camping to full rv hook-ups. Bathrooms are clean. Sites under tree and sites open to sun. Lots of hiking trails and explore the old fort or the beach. And fishing.

  Portland Fairview RV Park

  Nice, Clean RV Park with Newer Models, Greenery and a Pool

  I'll be honest. I wasn't expecting much from this RV Park. It's not in the most exciting area of Portland (the closet thing is a Walmart down the road). But it's actually quite lovely. Nice and clean. Plenty of green space, trees. 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.

  The park is set up in two areas, with the one closer to the entrance a bit higher up than the spots toward the back. Pool, clubhouse, etc. are toward the front. The front office was clean and the manager nice.

  While there's definitely some long-term and month-to-month spots, most RVs aren't spilling over with "extras" (extensive decorations/sheds etc.) like some places.

  To me, the price is a bit much: $57.67 for full hook-ups, and that's after a AAA discount. Otherwise, a decent place to stay with your RV on the edge of Portland.

  Taidnapam Park

  Great Park for Families

  This is a great spot to explore some pacific NW beauty. The site features an assortment of camping spots, from tent to full RV hook up. Though the site is clean, and has ample hiking and recreation choices, there were quite a few small children here with their families. We had a ball singing and exploring though the park was quite busy and loud. Not a problem at all as long as you know this Park is mostly families. lots of great places nearby and the jaunt out to Finn Cidery is a must. A great drive to nearby Kingston in search of Bald Eagles was a success as we saw two in the trees near the bay. Wonderful people all around but we were camping during World Cup and lots of Europeans on holiday made some games a bit more colorful than usual. if you want silent serenity, this is not your spot during busy season. want some fun and a great place to set as base camp? this is a good spot.

  Thousand Trails Chehalis

  This place has it all!

  An RV resort is not my typical go to place for camping, but a friend and I were heading back from the Oregon coast and wanted a place to park my Jeep so we could sleep in the roof top tent! This place was great for it, and really had all of the amenities.

  First of all the place is HUGE, not exaggerating. pretty sure you could get lost in there if you ventured too far. they also don’t really monitor you much once you check in. We paid, then they let us drive around until we found a spot to our liking. They have RV hookups and everything, but they also have primitive camping sites for tents with river access.

  The bathrooms were super clean, and they also have a pool, some sort of family recreation center, basketball courts, etc.

  Everyone we met was super nice, and the spot we chose had plenty of tree coverage for privacy. If youre looking for a place with plenty to do for the kids and comfy accommodations for you, this Is your spot!

  Columbia River RV Park

  Great Place to Stay to See Portland

  Large, well maintained RV park. Very friendly, efficient staff. Bathrooms with showers--modern and well maintained. Good security. This looks like a full time location with good long-term rates.

  Circle Creek RV Park & Campground

  Needs to determine what they want to be

  This campground lacks many of the amenities of most campgrounds. They have a number of long term rentals that don’t mind giving their negative opinions about the RV park. And if that is not enough the road is constant stream of noise outside your camper

  Paradise Cove Resort and RV Park

  Friendly, Basic, But Mostly Long-Timers

  On maps this is sometimes called Paradise Resort & RV Park, but if it's an RV Park with "paradise" in the name and you're in Castle Rock, Washington, you're in the right place.

  Just off the freeway. Mostly full-timers. There's a store there with the basics, plus laundry machines, showers etc. No frills. Friendly enough staff and people who live there. Full hook-ups. Sites are nothing to write home about. They take overnight bookings for about $32 a night.

  If you have kids and/or want more facilities, head across the freeway to Toutle River RV Park. Otherwise this place is fine.

  Thousand Trails Chehalis

  Chehalis was Awesome

  Thousand Trails Chehalis We stay two nights from August 31st through September 2, 2019 in campsite H43, the price was$o.oo due to our Thousand Trails membership. Our site has electricity and water hook up. The site was level and has plenty of ripe blackberries for picking. 

  The campground is at an elevation of 150 ft. Access to the campground was right off Centralia Alpha Rd, our 28 ft travel trailer easily fit with room to spare in our site. Once we entering the campground, the pavement turns to hard-packed gravel as we looped around once to find our campsite. Weather was sunny upper 70's, the nights low 60's. 

  This is a very quiet campground, activities we found at the campground to keep busy was billiards, two lodges, and two pools, Bingo was being played in one of the lodges. The campground has free showers, plenty of hot water and not more than a minute walk from our campsite. 

  My wife and I enjoyed the campground, we will be back the next time we want to go to Mt. Rainier or Mt. St. Helens.

  Seaquest State Park Campground

  Relaxing weekend get-a-way!

  This was what I would call perfect winter camping- no rain but chilly. It was like being deep in the forest but with the convenience of a full-hook ups. (Water is shut off in the winter but you can fill your tank at the park. The “tt” sites are just like regular rv park types- field of grass w/ picnic tables. The straight #s are the sites in the forest.

  Thousand Trails Seaside

  Thousand Trails Seaside Is Worth The Stay

  This was an interesting Thousand Trails. We stay three nights from October 11th through 14th, 2019, at campsite 151, the stay was free due to our Thousand Trails membership. Our site had sewer, electricity, and water hook up. The sewer connection at the campsite was a nice plus. The site was level and easy to back in to. 

  The sites were the closest we've been to at a Thousand Trails, with no trees for privacy. What made the Seaside interesting was there wasn't much noise even though the sites were close to each other. The campground was at sea level and just outside of downtown Seaside. Our 28 ft travel trailer easily fit into our spot. Once we entering the campground, the campground roads are all gravel. 

  The weather in October was high overcast in the low 60's, the nights low 40s. This is a very quiet campground, activities we found at the campground to keep busy was a very nice indoor pool, indoor sauna, indoor spa and exercise room with treadmills. The campground has clean free showers, plenty of hot water and not more than a 5 minute walk from our campsite. 

  My wife and I enjoyed the campground, we took a trip north to Fort Stevens for the day, geocached and hiked around the fort. Seaside was a fun town, its grown a lot since my first visit there 20 years ago.

  Vancouver RV Park

  Expensive cement parking lot

  Expensive RV Park in suburban Vancouver. Basically, it’s a big cement parking lot with drive-through slips for RVs. Full hookups available, but nothing very scenic about anything in the area.

  This is one of those places you could crash for the night and then keep on moving, were it not for the fact that it’s near $80 an evening. You could do better at a nearby motel.

  Portland Fairview RV Park

  Good place for a short stay

  We were worried at first as this was our first visit to Portland. The city is filled with garbage and in desperate need of services for the homeless. We pulled into the RV park and luckily there is nothing worrisome to report. If the office is closed there is a cabinet around the corner that may contain the map with your name and directions to your spot. It is tidy and the staff were friendly during our 2-week stay. The area around it seemed like well kept neighborhoods. The train next to the park is regular so be prepared for consistent train noise. Our Verizon phones and T-Mobile hotspot had great signal here and the park offered free cable service. The spaces are pre-assigned but very tight. We unfortunately didn't get a pull-through site even though quite a few were available. It seemed the majority of people here are long-term but as I mentioned above everyone was tidy. Everyone seemed quite friendly as well. As for the facilities, they seemed to be in a bit of disrepair but not horrible. The "gym" wasn't a place that really looked useable though. Several long term people made comments on how cheap the owners are and have indicated the park is slowly but consistently going downhill. I didn't take any photos as there were no great things to accentuate. We did enjoy the fact it was close to the highway that takes you east towards quite a few sights and Hood River.

  Thousand Trails Paradise RV Campground

  Thousand Trails Paradise Is Awesome

  This was a very nice Thousand Trails. We stay two nights from September 13th through September 16, 2019, in campsite 187, the stay was free due to our Thousand Trails membership. Our site had electricity and water hook up. 

  The site was level and backed up to a creek that was down below the site. The stay site was quiet, no one camping on our driver side did have a neighbor on the passenger side. The campground is at an elevation of 125 ft. Access to the campground was right off hwy 12, our 28 ft travel trailer easily fit with room to spare in our site. Once we entering the campground, the pavement turns to hard-packed gravel as we circled around a couple of times to find our campsite. 

  The weather was high overcast in the mid 60's, the nights low 50s. It did rain hard on Sunday morning from 2am to 10am. This is a very quiet campground, activities we found at the campground to keep busy was shuffleboard which we enjoyed for the first time. The Billards table was in really good shape too. A musician name Dr A played music Saturday night in the lodge. The campground has clean free showers, plenty of hot water and not more than a 5 minute walk from our campsite. Since we arrived on a Friday school day, the campgrounds were not full, there was no waiting for showers. 

  My wife and I enjoyed the campground, we will be back the next time we want to hike at Mt. St. Helens.

  Hares Canyon Horse Camp — L.L. Stub Stewart State Park

  Great place close to Portland

  I have been here several times and always have a good experience. During the main season when the whole place is open you can usually find a spot last min. This year with covid it's been harder to find a spot last min and they would only let you reserve 30 days in advance so planning something in advance was impossible. I bring my R-Pod trailer and every RV spot has full hook-ups. Lots to do with the Banks / Vernonia trail running through the camp that has over 15 miles of paved walking / biking trails. Weekends get busy on the trail during the summer, but still plenty of distance to use the trail safely during Covid. Camp host have always been nice.

  Riffe Lake Campground

  Beautiful Campground

  I believe this campground is under new ownership. You can see they’ve been putting a lot of work into it. Paving roads, landscaping, etc. Looks great and well maintained. RV spots are gravel pads and had water and electric, some had full hook up too. Some spots are better suited for larger rigs (ours was a little tight) but we were only doing a one night stop. Nice grassy spaces and a grassy community area with horseshoe pits. Lake access down by the tent sites. Very quiet and peaceful. Helpful and friendly staff. Would definitely return and recommend.

  Thousand Trails Seaside

  Not What We Were Expecting

  We followed our RV GPS right to the campground(CG). Up front, last January, we won 6 free nights at a Thousand Trails resort at an RV Life event at the Tampa RV Show. As we were wintering on the Oregon coast, we decided to try out the Seaside Resort based on the reviews. Our expectations were not met. We needed to come in a day early, making our total stay here 7 days, so our nighty rate was based on the charge for the extra night. We received an email giving us the gate code and telling us to proceed into the park, choose a site, get set up, and then go check in. We went to the north side where the 50 AMP hookups are located, and used the provided gate code to enter. It was raining the day we arrived, and we noticed a lot of the sites had standing water. We saw that site 158 was not flooded out, so we chose this FHU site. As we were setting up, one of the CG workers came by politely asking us where our truck tag was. We told him we had followed the email instructions to choose a site and get set up, then we would go over to the south side ranger station and check-in. He then asked us how we got through the gate, and we told him the gate code was in the email. He seemed surprised. After we set up, we went over to the check-in booth/ranger station and received our welcome and information package; they were not aware of the new email procedures. The water pressure was around 60 psi, so we used a reducer. The gravel site was not level, and we had to use blocks. The sites were very close together. We got 3 bars on Verizon and had a clear shot north for Starlink. We do not like to be negative, but the north side looked like a refugee camp. We are mainly talking about the center area, not the cul-de-sacs where the cabins and surrounding loops were located. Referring to the refugee comment, some of the rigs were very old/poor shape, and/or the long-term members didn't take care of their rigs or their campsite. While we were there, an old Cougar trailer came in with a screwdriver holding the entry door closed and a red condemned sticker on the other side. On the positive side, the indoor pool is nice, and there’s a good-sized dog area on the north side. There’s a gate at the entrance, and the water makes a natural fence around the area where you can let the dogs off-leash. The south side also has a smaller but nice fenced dog area. There’s a clean laundry room located on the south side that has 6 machines each and uses a kiosk to pay. The cost per wash and dry was$2 each. The workers and residents were very nice. Their shower facilities were updated and clean. This is a beautiful property, and Seaside could be a top-rated CG with north-side site upgrades, TLC, and tough love to move permanent residents on or make them clean up their sites.

  Fort Stevens State Park Campground

  Big campground, good amenities

  Large, well-equipped campground w/ showers and flush toilets. Primarily closely spaced paved spurs for camper trailers and RVs. Only had full hookup RV sites available, so a bit pricier than I'd have liked (~$32), but we didn't reserve ahead of time. Around 300 sites too so privacy isn't really an option. However, the park grounds are very well kept with miles of trails (many ADA paved) for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Great mushroom foraging here too. Found a good flush of Oysters (pl. ostreatus) that we cooked for breakfast. Free mushroom walks available most weekends in Oct.

  Nicest bathrooms yet!

  We are enjoying a free year of Thousand Trails membership and this was another last min stay, it was packed! But it’s the middle of summer, and we were able to find a spot in overflow same day. They called us personally, and we’re fantastic. Great amenities, and the CLEANEST bathroom I’ve seen yet this week camping.

  Fort Stevens State Park Campground

  Wonderful Location

  Can’t say enough about Fort Stevens. We trailer camped with friends in December, 2020. Fortunately, the weather was great and we spent most of our time hiking, flying kites and walking the beach. The camp staff was pleasant and respectful of Covid-19 safe practices. The Oregon camp reservation website was intuitive. We plan to return.

  Thousand Trails Seaside

  Mostly Average

  Gated entry. Make sure to bring your RV insurance info or expect a lecture from the front desk before they let you in (they actually are very nice). First Thousand Trails I have tried. It’s basically a big parking lot with hookups. No privacy between sites. Everything looks a bit raggedy. The WiFi cost’s extra and didn’t work for most of my devices (as in disconnect or wouldn’t connect). Decent T-mobile signal. Enough to work with the booster. Didn’t try the pool or any of the amenities so can’t comment on them other than they also look a bit raggedy. This would be a place I come out of the sheer convenience of being only a little over an hour away and it’s location near Astoria and Cannon Beach. Seaside blows unless you like lots of not well trained kids and whiskey tangos everywhere. All in all it’s average and convenient.

  Thousand Trails Chehalis

  Funky Older Place But Kids Had Fun

  First off, this is a Thousand Trails campground (like a camping time-share), so we were able to go for free, which is of course great. Good sized pads, wasn't very crowded since they'd just re-opened after having some water issues. Swimming pool, mini golf course, and trails to explore. The campground facilities have seen better days and feel like they're stuck in the 1980s. But the kids didn't mind that half the mini golf course was falling down….in fact they kind of liked it that way, so overall we had a good time despite the lack of updates.
