    Columbia River RV Park

    Basic Nice RV Park Right in Portland

    Located at the northern end of Portland not too far off the 1-5 freeway. RV campground with wide streets, nice office staff, and clean facilities including laundry, clubhouse, group kitchen area and free wi-fi. Grass in-between most spots, with some back-in sites and others being pull-through. Backs up to a busy road blocked by large bushes and under the pathway for the airport, so there's some noise but not horrible. Some full-times but sites are nice and well maintained. Overall nice, clean and well maintained large RV site within the Portland city limits.

    Reeder Beach RV Park & Country Store

    1 Night Stopover

    I was worried when Google maps brought me through the industrial section of Portland, but relieved when I crossed the bridge to the Island. Check in was fast and efficient. Can't say the staff was friendly or welcoming, Full hookups, but I don't rate it higher because there is no wifi or laundry facilities. There is also nothing around here store or restaurant wise. I enjoyed the beach and watching the ships pass by. I had good cell service. Riverside back in sites are the best. Pull through provide shade

    Silver Spur RV Park & Resort

    Not terrible.

    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.

    Bayport RV Park and Campground

    Normally not a four star RV park but considering the price...

    Came here so I can kayak and calm waters. The slabs are mostly level and each spot is large with a nice picnic table and fire pit but neighbors are fairly close and not much privacy. Showers are quarter timed showers and I've seen much better and cleaner. They do have waste of disposal for a fee but they offer drinking water and full Electric and water but no sewage hookup you pay at the dump station. However it's very close to town which is very convenient and has great access to the water as compared to many other places where you have to drive à ways.

    Sun Outdoors Portland South

    Glamping

    This was my first experience at an RV Resort. It is located right of the interstate but feels secluded. They have both back in and pull through sites, a little tight with neighbors but I was told it is better than other RV resorts. Beautiful landscaping, indoor pool and hot tub, small market, laundry facilities, horseshoe pits on beautiful grassy area. Yes to dogs and cats and no breed restrictions! They have a nice grassy area with poop bags! Bummer no fires 🙁 If fire pits I’d give the 5th star! Also, within 15-20 mins there are amazing countryside, wine tasting, hiking/walking, Willamette River with off leash areas for dogs, and downtown Portland. Additionally there is an off leash park 8 mins away. Overall a good experience, we enjoyed our stay. My photos don’t show much of the place but their website’s photos represent well.

    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.

    Port of Cascade Locks Campground

    Small and Great!

    A very small campground with water and electric only. Level sites with bathrooms and showers close. There is a dump station on site. A beautiful setting along the Columbia River. Sites back up to parking lot below for Thunder Island and native american fishing platforms. The Columbia paddle wheeler is walking distance nearby for a dinner or sightseeing cruise. Thunder Island Brewing is a couple of blocks away. I think there are only ten camp sites and a camp host that we never met. This is a hidden treasure for smaller campers and travel trailers.

    Ainsworth State Park Campground

    Suprised

    When we pulled in with our 40' Coach I thought oboy I blew it. Getting into our site was a little tight but doable. We were in a pull through tucked in the forest with full hookups. A fire pit and picnic table too! If you go camping to stay inside our Verizon phones, Sprint hot spot and over the air TV all worked. You can hear the train in a distance and a little traffic. It is a great spot and we will come here again.

    Roamer Sites - Oregon

    Fast WiFi, skate park, gym, tramps

    This place is incredible. First to cover the basics.

    The internet is super fast - I was getting 75mbps up/down when I was in my tent.

    They have power/water hookups at each parking spot. The glamping tents have heaters, lights etc. There are heated indoor bathrooms with nice free hot water showers just a short walk away.

    This place is at a year round camp/school that has multiple skate parks, trampolines, mountain biking courses, all season ski jumps etc. it’s an action sports camp.

    They provide things like firewood and ice which they put in your cooler.

    The people are super nice and accommodating. Ask for Jim - he handles all the camping stuff.


Guide to Troutdale

The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area surrounds Troutdale, Oregon, with steep basalt cliffs rising 4,000 feet above river level. This gateway to the Gorge sits at 40 feet elevation where the Sandy River meets the Columbia River, creating a natural transition between the Portland metropolitan area and Mount Hood National Forest. Camping options include both full-hookup rv campgrounds near Troutdale and riverfront sites with varying levels of amenities.

What to do

**Salmon fishing: Access the Sandy River directly from Sandy Riverfront RV Resort where the park sits between the river and a creek. "We rolled in after hours, office closed but they are so organized, available spots are clearly indicated with specific instructions. Bike into cute town of Troutdale very close. Right on the river," notes Val R.

**Mountain biking: Visit the Sandy Ridge Trail System across Highway 26 from Mt Hood Village Resort. "Using this RV park as a jumping off point, there are endless hiking trails and lakes to paddle and explore in the Mt Hood wilderness. You will never get bored in the Mt Hood area," according to Joel H., who specifically mentions the Sandy Ridge trails as "some of the best Mountain Biking in the country."

**Swimming: Cool off in the river when temperatures rise in summer months. "The absolutely best part about this park is that it's across the street from Sugarpine Drive-in. Somewhat expensive (for a drive-in) but oh-so-delicious food. It's also right on the Sandy River where you can enjoy the beautiful views and swim (very carefully...bring life-vests to be safe)," advises Corinna B.

What campers like

**Concrete pads: Many sites at RV parks near Troutdale feature level, concrete parking areas. Wes B. explains that Sandy Riverfront RV Resort offers "concrete pads with extra parking space make for level camping. Book early to enjoy the spaces that overlook the Sandy River, otherwise you'll just be looking at other RVs."

**Riverfront views: Sites overlooking water are highly sought after but fill quickly. "The park sits directly on the Sandy River. Between the Sandy River and a creek. You do hear noises from the distant freeway and airport. There is a train bridge visible from the park, which is both entertaining and a bit noisy at times," reports Alene D.

**Proximity to local dining: Clackamette RV Park provides convenient access to local restaurants. "Just a gravel parking lot with hookups. But conveniently located right off of 205 and close to a lot of amenities in the suburbs of Portland. Dog friendly too as there is a park with walking paths," writes Mary F., noting the scenic views of the Willamette and Clackamas rivers.

What you should know

**Train noise: Railroad tracks run through the area, affecting some campgrounds more than others. At Portland Fairview RV Park, Derek & Alex W. advise: "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. The train next to the park is regular so be prepared for consistent train noise."

**Age restrictions: Some RV parks limit older vehicles. Becky S. explains, "They also have RV age limit of 2010 but they allowed pictures before turning me down. Yay we got approved!"

**Variable water pressure: Infrastructure issues affect some facilities seasonally. At Jantzen Beach RV Park, Jennifer H. noted: "Water pressure is the lowest we've ever experienced. Not sure what's going on but all of the folks we've talked to are experiencing the same. Maybe because we're on an island?"

Tips for camping with families

**Indoor swimming option: For families with children, Columbia River RV Park offers amenities for all ages. "The park has two off-leash dog areas, two shower facilities, a community kitchen, a rec room that you can use for gatherings, a free table for giving away things that you don't need or taking things you want, a laundry facility, and a workout room," explains C H.

**Playground access: Several parks feature play equipment for children. Tyson C. shares that Mt Hood Village Resort is "a good family camping spot. Pros - there is a playground, swimming pool, small store, cafe, bathrooms with showers (and warm water) and activities during the day for kids."

**Rock hunting spots: The confluence of rivers creates opportunities for children to explore. Brian C. describes Clackamette Park: "The river and park around it, however, where the Willamette and Clackamas Rivers meet, is pretty cool. Great for looking for rocks."

Tips from RVers

**Site selection strategy: For more privacy at Mt Hood Village Resort, Joel H. recommends: "The sites are typically close together, but some have more separation than others. Most sites are pull through. Full hookups worked well for us."

**Off-season availability: RV parks in the Troutdale area have varying seasonal traffic patterns. Gregg K. notes: "Great restaurant, good sized spaces and a nice country store. Unfortunately some amenities still closed due to Covid!"

**Dump station access: Roamers Rest RV Park provides full hookups including sanitary dump access. According to C.W., "It's clean but a bit close to other sites. Paved sites, have restrooms. Needs a little TLC as road is a bit dated."
