Best Cabin Camping near Seneca, OR

Small Gaurd station but its all you need. It makes for a treat central  point for camping  or RV, but no beds in side cabin. We have slept on the floor  but the tard is perfect  for a tent or 3. The area is beautiful  but the creek  is so very tiny and back behind the cabin. It has a vault toilet that was very clean but we may have been  lucky  since it is not cleaned between guests. You can take a unpaved road to Dayville and the creek the runs alongside the road has lots of crawdads and is refreshing.

Our truck broke down just outside of Burns and we ended up having our travel trailer towed to this RV park, as it was the only place we could stay for the week while waiting to get our truck repaired. We had a full hookup spot, which was super nice, but the spot itself was pretty small. This is typical of many RV parks I have been too - good amenities but small spot.

There were some other spots in the park that were slightly larger and had picnic tables, but ours did not. We had only a tiny plastic table with 2 chairs, but we were so close to the RV next to us that we were basically either looking in their window or we would have to be right next to the "road'. Not ideal so we didn't spend much time outside.

There was room here for all sizes of campers - from tents (I saw I guy on a bicycle who tent camped for the night) to giant motorhomes with cars towed behind. The park hosts were all extremely nice and helpful, given our circumstances. They also gave us a military discount since my husband is a veteran.

Restrooms and showers were fairly small (only 2 toilets and 2 showers in each bathroom) but I think most folks used the facilities in their RVs. The shop/office sells propane and ice, so we were able to restock on both (plus they have wine and ice cream if you need a little splurge).

The park is right off of the highway so you may get some truck/traffic noise but it didn't seem to bother us city folks too much. :)

Wifi was fairly decent and you can get some local channels in the TV, if those things are important to you.

Dog and kid friendly, but there is really not much for either to do here.

Overall, this suited our purpose, in that we had a nice safe place to stay while our truck was repaired, but I'm not sure I would stay here just for kicks. Close to the Malheur Wildlife Refuge and a great stopover if you need a night to rest while driving through the high desert of Oregon.

Clean, well maintained, cooking supplies provided, heated house with fridge. Outhouse was clean. Recommended bring you own light, the lanterns did not provide a lot of light and your own blanket for the beds.

Pretty quiet with friendly hosts. Had great ATT service so didn’t try the WiFi. The Mosquitoes were a little hungry but that is just this time of year. My only complaint is that the showers/bathrooms were not even close to clean. We used them because we had been on the road but didn’t get to enjoy my shower much. Laundry room was clean and worked well.

Good campground. A bit of road noise. Also, we had shade. Showers look a bit worn.

Very nice stop on our road trip. Spots are gravel, level and easy to access. Showers clean and nicely fitted out. Grass and trees kept the site cool even in high heat. Quiet and other campers were considerate.

Definitely a great respite from a long day on the road!

This is a pretty good spot for a tiny town. I think it’s a bit of expensive at appx. $50/night. My daughter and I went to take a shower, and found 2 frogs in the showers, but other than a that it was a pretty quiet and generally located spot.

I tried the other RV park on the other side of town to discover they were closed. Despite be close to the main road there’s not a lot of traffic

This was a great stop over for us coming from Corvallis. We stayed one full day as we have kids and they can only last so long on the road. The owners were extremely helpful and welcoming. All the sites are nicely groomed. The utility hook ups were in great condition, the bathrooms and laundry facilities on site were in great condition. The local pool is a must stop specially if you have kids, it’s was extremely cheap $11 for two adults and two kids. Also the local park right by the RV park is another amazing spot to go hang out for a few hours. Definitely all the amenities or store that you would need in a close vicinity.

The only annoying part which the owners cant control was the mosquitoes were crazy. Not sure if it was just the time of year or the mosquitoes are always that thick. But just a tip bring mosquito spray or long clothing if you plan to be up outside at night. If you’re a light sleeper maybe request to see if you can stay further back in the park there is a road that is close, and my wife did mention that she did hear the vehicles going by in the evening.

Overall I would stay here anytime again, and if it wasn’t so far out-of-the-way I would probably plan a trip just to come back to stay longer. We had a 28 foot trailer with full hook ups. I was able to park our trailer and full-size pick up in our spot.

Campground is very well maintained. Excellent tent sites and bathrooms.

I stayed here years ago and had a good experience so stayed again. Yes, it’s by the main road, but you’re also pretty much right out of town. Road quiets down to nothing at night. It’s still warm in September, so got a spot with shade. Super comfortable. Love all the quail, squirrels and listening to coyotes at night. Drove out to do the Steens Mountain loop, see the Round Barn, etc. Love this area and nice to come back to a comfortable site.

FEATURES:

PROS:

-A firepit with wood is provided for guests. The owner says he sometimes hosts "Smore Nights," for guests in peak season. 

-a propane grill is also available for use.

-Our back-in site for our 30 amp travel trailer wasn't too hard to get in too.

-Good wifi, though there weren't that many other people in the park at the time we were there.

-The campground is on a river, though you can't really sit by it or see due to growth along the banks.

-The office was closed when we were there, but according to their website, they have local beer, wine, and snacks for sale.

CONS:

-Bathrooms are small, two showers, two stalls.

-Our site was unlevel so we needed our levelers.

Overall a fine stay. We didn't hear the road much at all inside our trailer. We enjoyed sitting out on the picnic table at our site. Owners very nice.

Place is pretty tight especially when full. The shower facilities are older and had a slight sewer odor. They did seem to clean regularly but just a bit dark and outdated. 30/50 amp power, water and sewer. The trees seem to mist on you too (kinda nice when it was 91 and smokey out). Not sure if it’s a sticky spray they emit as we haven’t tried washing car or trailer yet. Laundry facilities present. Easy access and seemed like the better place to stay while in Burns. Seemed like a quick turnover so it’s more a stoping point than a vacation stay place. A lot of out of town workers seemed to be there. I don’t know if we will be back to Burns but if we do we will probably stay here again only because there were no better options

Right by the freeway but super nice park. Showers, fhu, cable, wifi is really slow, tee pee, tent and RV Park.
