    Southern Oregon RV Park

    Park with all the bells

    We stay here often on our migration from PNW to the Desert for winter. It is a extremely well run park, with immaculate bathrooms and well groomed sites. Sites have concrete pad, fire pit and table with FHU. An easy off of Highway 5 and close to Costco and many restaurants. Small lake/pond with walking trail around and extra large Dog Park.

    Valley of the Rogue State Park Campground

    Great Thru Campsite

    Would I describe this place as the pinnacle of what Oregon has to offer? Probably not, but for us it was perfect since we only had 5 days to travel the whole Pacific Coast from San Diego to Seattle. This was close to the freeway, so yeah definitely noise but everyone we met was really nice. Also not to far from here is a dog park so your furry half can stretch their legs in compliance with leash laws. First place we’ve stayed in Oregon and we really love it.

    Seven Feathers RV Resort

    Breathe Taking View

    Stayed at the Seven Feathers RV resort for a few nights rest and to play bingo!!! Love there bingo hall!! They have a shuttle bus service that picks you up and drops you off at your RV/trailer. The park is really clean surrounded by mountains. Huge enclosed dog park. The pool and spa was closed due to Covid but sitting outside was so peaceful!!

    Rogue Elk County Park

    Good low key campground - dump station broken

    We like this low key and mellow campground. And the river is so high now! The very friendly host told us that they’re releasing a lot of water from the dam in anticipation of snow melts filling the dam up- that Crater Lake got 29 ft of snow this year! 

    Day use fee is $4. Dry spots are $25/night, electric and water spots are $30. The dump station is out of commission, for good. The host said the nearest dump station is in White City. 

    Firewood is available at $6/bundle. 

    There is a playground in the middle of the campground loop. Site #27 is right by the playground, so heads up on that! 

    You can make a reservation online or by phone, or come and grab a site and pay when you arrive. The hosts do a good job of marking future reservations so you can pick a site that is available. The big downside for this campground is the road noise. I’d definitely stay on the side of the campground away from the road if you can, as the road is just literally right behind the sites on that side of the loop. Almost nobody there on a Sunday in late May, but it gets busy on weekends.

Guide to White City

Tent and RV camping options abound within 30 miles of White City, Oregon, situated in the Rogue Valley at 1,300 feet elevation. The region features a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers often reaching into the 90s and mild, wet winters. Fall and spring camping seasons offer moderate temperatures in the 60-70s with fewer crowds at local campgrounds.

What to do

River access for dogs: Valley of the Rogue State Park provides riverside trails where pets can swim and explore. "The water was flowing fairly quickly due to the high snowfall this year, but there was a great rocked-off area just down from our campsite where you could get into the water and wade around without the fear of your dog or child getting swept away," notes Andy H.

Fishing opportunities: Point RV Park at Emigrant Lake offers lakeside camping with various fishing spots. "Geese and ducks are on and around the lake," reports Tim G., while another visitor mentions that "There are warnings for pregnant or nursing women not to eat fish from the lake."

Hot springs relaxation: Jackson Wellsprings provides mineral water soaking for campers. "When you camp here for $25 a night, you are granted access to the Hot Spring and mineral pool. I love relaxing here, it is very peaceful and a great environment," explains Amanda C. The springs include both a developed hot pool and a jacuzzi setup.

What campers like

Easy freeway access: Valley of the Rogue State Park Campground offers convenient access for travelers. "This is a great first night stopping point when heading south from Portland on I5. So close to the hiway. Nice spots and a view of the river," mentions Kathy B. Other campers note it's "perfect since we only had 5 days to travel the whole Pacific Coast."

Paved pathways: Many pet-friendly campgrounds near White City feature walking trails. "Each day we either hiked or biked the local trails. The bike trail goes on for many miles and is quite enjoyable. You can bike into the nearby towns while staying on a safe trail," states Charlotte L. about Valley of the Rogue.

Level sites: Holiday RV Park provides flat sites with hookups. "Sites are pull thru, making it easy. Right off of I-5 so easy to find," notes Debbie H. Another camper mentioned, "There's a creek running along side the park and a nice grassy area for pets."

What you should know

Highway noise: Most campgrounds near Interstate 5 experience traffic sounds. "The park's CG areas run along I-5 so you are going to get road noise regardless of your site. We used our sound machine at night so the road noise wasn't too bad, but its definitely noticeable when you're outside," explains MickandKarla W.

Seasonal water levels: Emigrant Lake can have significant water level fluctuations. "We were here off season (October) so the water in the reservoir was very low. Despite seeing walls of dirt leading to the water, the view was still very pretty," writes one camper. Another mentions, "The camp host told us that they're releasing a lot of water from the dam in anticipation of snow melts filling the dam up."

Sulfur odor: Natural mineral water sources have a distinct smell. At Jackson Wellsprings, "The drinking water and shower water smell like sulfur which is a bit nauseating," according to Alicia F. However, this is normal for natural springs in the region.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Rogue Elk County Park offers play areas within the campground. "There is a playground that sits right about the middle of all sites," notes one reviewer. Another mentions, "We've been camping at rogue elk since I was 8 years old will always be one of my favorites. Nice quite little camp ground and the kids always enjoy playing in Elk Creek."

Swimming options: Some dog-friendly White City area campgrounds offer water recreation. "It's July here now and in the high 90's," mentions Troy L., making water access important. At Emigrant Lake, one camper notes there's "kayaking, boating, water skiing, etc." and "easy access trails down to the water."

Site selection: Choose sites away from road noise when possible. "I'd definitely stay on the side of the campground away from the road if you can, as the road is just literally right behind the sites on that side of the loop," advises Laura M. about Rogue Elk County Park.

Tips from RVers

Concrete pads: Southern Oregon RV Park provides solid, level surfaces. "Sites are fully paved and very well maintained," states Troy L. Another RVer notes, "Just did an overnight stay was easy check in paved and easy for my wife to move around in a walker."

Dump station locations: Check if facilities are operational before arrival. "The dump station was closed for repairs and the ranger said it will not be fixed for some time," reports one camper. Another mentions at Southern Oregon RV Park, "Full hookups at a good price."

Shaded sites: Limited shade exists at some locations. Kevin F. recommends requesting shaded sites when available: "These shade trees were a blessing as they protected us from the unusually high temperatures the Pacific Northwest was experiencing." Sites with trees may require careful maneuvering to extend slides.
