They have a hot tub, heated pool, lodge, rv hook ups, tent spaces, and rental cabins. Very nice.
Guide
Two weeks maximum stay. It is basically a Parking Lot at a fairgrounds with RV hook ups.
No shower or other facilities

I ended up here last minute due to weather on the Oregon coast. I’m in a 40’ coach. It’s a very well kept RV park, a lot of long term residents were here. The office is very nice, the lawns are very nice, the office parking lot is asphalt. Has a nice little children’s play area. There are very bumpy gravel driveways to the RV parking spots (possibly just the time of year causing the poor road condition). The RV spaces are very easy to get into being angled. We stayed in a pull through space, easy in and easy out. Only giving a 4star rating for the very small RV spaces. Was very crammed for anything more than a last minute stay.
TravelerDefinitely more of a trailer park with long term residents than a short term RV Park. People are friendly and cost is low. But there are no sewer hook ups for short term guests and they do not have a dump station.
Guide
This is an RV park. Full hook up $47. Great water pressure for shower. Laundry $1.75 wash, $.25 dry 13 minutes. Clean. Not a lot of space per lot. Mostly people live here. Lady checking in is wonderful!

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.

We showed up here in early June with no reservations and had no problem getting a spot.
Oregon State Parks now charge a 25% surcharge for non-residents for RV / hookup sites.
Tent/non-hookup sites are only $22 (whether resident or no), and electric/water sites are $35 for Oregon residents and $44 for non. There are no sewer hookups here but there's a free dump and water fill at the entrance. There are water spigots throughout the campground.
The RV loops are more like your basic crammed in RV park sites, with all sites closely in a row. The two tent loops, H and I, have a nicer feel, more spaced out, more trees, and quieter. RVs are allowed to camp in tent sites, and no generators are allowed (yay!). There is some tree cover but there are plenty of sites with enough open sky so you can use your solar panels easily.
Showers are really nice, and free. They are set up in individual units, which I prefer.
The trails to the beach are nice, but were really swampy when we were here and the mosquitos were really aggressive (bit me through two layers of clothes!).
There's a cool disc golf course but we didn't get to play, mainly because of the mosquitos.
Campground is close to the cute town of Newport.
Overall we liked it here.
ATT phone had good coverage. Verizon was usable but weak, but the cell booster helped.

When we visited, there were three sections to this facility: an RV Park, an annex, and a dry camping area with plans to expand in the future. When we first pulled in and I saw the price of $31.96 per night, I thought it was very reasonable but then I discovered that was for the dry camping area, which was a paved parking lot, so you are paying for a parking space; depending on how crowded this gets, there is NO privacy or separation. Note - I believe these rates have increased since our visit.
The rates for the Marina RV Park are $72.64 per day (including full hookups). The discounted rate for the annex is $53.28 per night. There are discounts for Good Sam and veterans. No tents are allowed.
The staff person in the office was very friendly and answered all my questions. The restrooms and laundry room were exceptionally clean. After the office is closed (or if you do not want to walk through the office), entry is via a keypad. There is also a public restroom nearby.
There are great views of the marina and the Yaquina Bay Bridge and Rogue Ale’s Brewery and Restaurant is right next door. There is also a public fishing pier, but WiFi is limited. The beach is nearby. At the end of April, there were many open spots, but I was told that the place completely fills up in July and August. We passed on this one but it would be convenient for area activities.
Guide
Between Waldport and Yachats on 101. Always full - reserve early. The beach is right there. Sites are separated by trees. Hosts on site. One big bathroom with showers. One smaller bathroom. Tent and trailer/rv hookups. No sewer dump on site. Closes for the winter.
Guide
The front of the camp ground is long term if not permanent residents. Lots of clutter and miscellaneous items. Looks like stuff that just doesn't fit into their trailer and made its way to their covered area (near their trailers).
Everyone kept to themselves, not much chatting going on with nearby "campers". The level we were on, just above the level near the River wasn't terrible. I liked it because we were a little further from the strong flowing river with our 2 little boys. It is beautiful and sounds awesome, but just to play it safe with the young ones I would recommend the spots on the level right above the river front.
The spots near the water look really nice. You would be able to hear the River from your camp spot. These spots had fire pits. Our spot looked like it was there at one point, but wasn't there any longer.
Very limited cell signal here.
Camp ground said their wifi was down, she mentioned it would be back up the next day, but it never was during or stay. That would have made it a little better to have connection to the world (as I am working on the road).
Our spot was unique, the power and water were on the same side, if you back in they would be on the passenger side and the sewer didnt have a good connection so I located a nearby stump to weigh it down. That was on the drivers side (again if you back into the space).
They offer a cable box at check in, which we didnt use that came with a coax cable and HDMI. (again, wifi would have solved this instead of taking these items that look like they are in a reusable bag).
Overall, the views are awesome, being that close to the water is awesome and I didnt feel unsafe, just a little unique of a spot. They did offer good sam and the lady was very nice to call and check on our good sam membership number.
The common room (they call the friendship room) that looks like a living room appeared closed for now (covid) and the laundry was open, but we did not use. The bathrooms were closed (covid).
Guide
This place was just okay. The best part is its proximity to the gorgeous Oregon beach. We were able to ride our bikes right from the campground to the beach and then go for miles. The campground, however, is nothing special. The plethora of full-time campers really cheapens the place but that seems to be what you get at Thousand Trails these days.
GuideThis is a Thousand TrAils campground and well maintained. The campground is divided into a north and south side. We stayed on the south side with concrete pads that were nestled in between trees. We were here during significant rainfall and appreciated not being in mud. Most sites have trees or shrubs for privacy. The showers were immaculate as was the campground. Camp staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.
RangerGreat sized campground within the Lebanon city limits. Directly on the river with hiking/biking paths. 20 full hookup sites with locked safe restrooms/coin showers. Camp host greets upon arrival and provides area maps and complimentary tokens for showers. This is one of our favorite RV parks.

Last summer I rented a yurt at Premier RV Resorts, Salem OR, and I can’t wait to stay there again!
Registration was quick and easy. Plenty of parking. An amazing gift shop and small store. The bathrooms were SPOTLESS and keyless/ code entry, and it was almost like they were our private bathrooms.
We had a darling porch with bbq and picnic table, Keurig coffee maker, 2 bedrooms, dining table and living room too! Cable tv as well.
What an amazing place!!
Traveler
We camped in Mid June and were 1 of 3 sites occupied. The campground was extremely clean and quiet. The park host and ranger were helpful and made sure they were available for any questions or needs we had. We stayed on loop A and some of the sites are close together. Be prepared to bring in enough water and the sites have no electricity. For trailer camping I would recommend loop A as it is newest and has 4 drive through spots. Overall, would definitely come back. It was a quick drive to the boat ramp which to the left has access to a small rocky beach area my kids loved exploring.
ScoutIt’s very pretty by the river but people that are long term have junk in their front yards and the managers allow that! Makes it look junky! Rules aren’t enforced
Guide
We used to love this place and came here yearly, as the facilities are nice and it's close to family. With recent management, staff, and policy changes, our motorhome is no longer allowed and about 1/4 of the park is for those passing through while the remainder are long-term slots. While visiting the other party in our group, they also kicked out our service dog from the pool deck and rudely told us to “read the rules.” We are well aware of public laws regarding service animals, but this staff member didn’t have any. It continues to be a nice park, but heaven help you if there is a toe out of line.

This campground has multiple beach front campsites with amazing views of a sandy, surf heavy part of the OR coast. Short driving distances to Yachats (check out Yachats Brewing for incredible food, kombucha, and fermentables of all sorts!), Cape Perpetua, multiple state parks all make this a great spot to stay. All sites have picnic tables and fire pits. Many sites that are off the beach also have full rv hookups. My favorite place to stay. Site 17 is nearly perfect! Every site is a less than 5 minute walk to the beach.
Legend
Better than a parking lot? We came upon this place while driving later in the day. It’s more of a long term place but will work for anyone driving through and wants a place with bathrooms. There is a restaurant onsite which was pretty cool.
TravelerVery nice campground with full hook ups and river access.
Guide
Lots of blackberry bushes near most sites. Our site was a level back-in on asphalt. Full hook up available. Partly shaded. McKenzie river runs behind park a few hundred yards. Supposedly good fishing. Park staff and host friendly and helpful.
GuideThis 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.
LegendWe wanted to stay here because we had an appointment in Eugene, but balked at the $10 online reservation fee, so decided to just show up and get a spot, because usually that works out just fine for us. Well, by the time we arrived, the campground was full (even though it was the middle of the week), and then I saw the little sign at the host's kiosk that a $10 fee will be added to your first night's stay. Bah.
Hosts were friendly and overall the campground looked very nice and well kept. There are showers and laundry here.
It's close to Eugene, so it's convenient if you have business in town.
The RV / hookup spots out on the main loop looked more open and trim, but the tent / no hookup area in the back was more lush with trees and shade and greenery.
Guide
Back in lots are shaded and not stacked closely together. Wifi shows but no wifi. We used Verizon puck and worked fine. Grounds are kept up nicely. Appears there are long term camping sites, unlike many places we’ve traveled, they are well maintained and clean!! Only small drawback is the hwy traffic if in lots 45-70. This was mainly in the evening when sitting outside but a no issue inside. Overall nice place!!
Ranger
Staff was not helpful, practically not existent. We called and left messages, no return calls for reservations. Finally got ahold of them as we needed a place for one night passing through. When we got there at 2, there was no one in. The office, just an envelope and a cable box with no instructions, site map etc. the place is filled with long term older units which is ok if weren’t for the junk piled around more than a few units. Bath house was clean but very outdated.
Ranger
Yes, you can walk to the beach. A "nature trail" leads down to Alsea Bay. We had the beach to ourselves the night we stayed. You are almost beneath the Hwy 101 bridge that crosses the bay. Nice clean beach with rocks and driftwood.
The campground itself is tidy with a nice office/gift shop and helpful, friendly staff. Pricey though. We don't go to a KOA for privacy. The sites are packed together like at most KOAs. We go for the facilities - clean showers and maybe use the laundromat. Some sites are bigger with chairs and fire pits. We had a smaller one with full hook ups and a picnic table.
Guide
This is a large campground, mostly populated by big rigs, and mostly long term stays. Looked like a lot of people were working in the area. Almost all of the RV's there are very nice - no long term stay hoarder scenes. The roads are paved, majority of sites are pull through, photos on Dyrt are accurate. We had a 30 amp site and all of the utilities were well maintained and arranged well. Water pressure was good. Everything is well maintained. The women in the office were friendly, efficient, and helpful. It is a very dog friendly park and there is lots of room for dogs but everyone picked up after dogs and we heard almost zero barking. There were a few kids there but they were quiet except for a little play time in the afternoons. Downsides: a couple of the machines in the laundry were out of service (but the others worked well); there is a lot of road noise from I-5; cellular reception is sketchy. The road noise varies a lot though so ask for a site close to the office or in the older section. The new sites farther back are closer to the interstate. The road noise was much less annoying than we anticipated and we slept well. There is a TA truck stop nearby for filling up as well as a diner and a McDonalds. Of course, driving into Eugene to eat is easy enough. We had just 1 bar of Verizon and it was unusable but we had 3 bars of ATT which worked well. The do have a dog wash station toward the back of the park and also a car wash station that is easily accessible on the main road. We stayed for 3 nights while taking care of some things in Eugene and it worked out well for us. If only this place was farther off the road it would really be great.
