GuideThis place is totally disgusting and in need of repairs. False advertising, many amenities are listed on their website and are not offered, nor are in working order. Only one bathhouse, that is very dark and dirty. Rotten old stairway that leads to dog park, very unsafe. Wooden structure in children's play area is leaning and rotted. Broken metal toys. Dried grass and tall weeds everywhere, berry bushes. No maintenance. No wifi, no cable tv, no level RV spot. No public access to game room/club house area. Which looked more like their private storage area with tires. No community kitchen. Everything in total disarray and in need of repair.
ScoutWe had a wonderful stay at Columbia River RV Park! The location couldn’t be more convenient, right near Portland and just steps away from the beautiful Columbia River. It was so nice to take walks along the waterfront and enjoy the peaceful views while still being close to everything the city has to offer. The park itself is clean, well-kept, and easy to navigate. The sites are straightforward and provide everything you need for a comfortable stay, whether you’re in a big rig or just stopping by with a smaller setup. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. If you’re looking for a safe, convenient, and relaxing RV stop near Portland with the bonus of riverside scenery, Columbia River RV Park is an excellent choice. We’ll definitely be back! Read More..
GuideAlmost perfect campground… the bathrooms were gnarly. For 54 bucks a night I was expecting better on that side of things… other than that this site rules
LegendOne very tall Sand Dune away from the ocean, and a very nice calm they to kayak in or lunch boats from. Very clean facilities and constant surveillance so very safe here. Very nicely maintained and dump station near the front although I don't know if they charge. They sell ice and firewood come and water from the spigots at each camping location is potable.
ScoutThe coordinates did not take us to the exact spot, but the pin on the map was the closest, it’s actually to the left on the dirt road. You’ll see a tiny dirt road going up hill and that’s the spot. Had some trees that had been chopped down and a fire pit area. Definitely could fit a couple cars up in that area. We arrived around 7pm and stayed the night. It’s about 25 minutes from Cannon Beach. The view of the mountains was nice!
LegendCame 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.
GuideNice site. Found in typical condition. Please pick up after yourself. Many sites out here. Camped on a week day. One other camper out here. No traffic on road. Like others said road getting in sucks. Site I picked had a trail down to the creek that was nice. Would recommend the area for just a nice quiet disconnect. No service.
GuideI would only choose this park again if I couldn't get into one of the State Parks . We did have a FHU, but the site, as well as all of the roads, are all gravel. We also had to level our trailer. In our row there were no trees and nothing to separate your site from your neighbors, except a little space. Do not arrive before 1400 unless you want to use the day use area at the jetty before you set up your site. The official check-in time is 1530. A check-in time for us earlier than 1400 would have resulted in an additional charge of $43. Our site did have a picnic table and fire ring.
GuideThe coordinates here were incorrect coming from Hood River Oregon. It sent me down a rough dead end forest service road. I ended up lost on the mountain for 3 hours and finally made it out somewhere near camas. Make sure you have lots of fuel
