What to do:

Tips for camping with families:

  • Choose Family-Friendly Campgrounds: Look for places with activities for kids. A reviewer at Albany-Corvallis KOA said, "This park has all the basic necessities... The park also has things for the kids to do like a basketball court, a pool, walking trails."
  • Plan for Noise: Be ready for some noise from other families. One camper at Silver Falls State Park Campground mentioned, "Children would be riding their bikes up and down the campsite loop yelling and playing."
  • Bring Outdoor Games: Having games on hand can keep kids entertained. A visitor at Smith Creek Village noted, "There was nice walking paths and a large grass area supplied with lawn games."

Tips from RVers:

  • Check Site Sizes: Make sure your RV fits the site. A camper at Armitage Park & Campground mentioned, "The pads are paved and pretty level, plenty long and wide for our 32ft 5th wheel and truck."

  • Plan for Dump Station Waits: Be prepared for lines at dump stations. A camper at River Bend County Park noted, "There was a long line at the dump station, so maybe plan ahead for that."
