HooDoo's Patio RV Park
About
Patio is an ideal spot to settle down for the long haul. Most sites include a carport, storage shed, cable TV, water, sewer hookup, wifi and garbage service.
Located in Central Oregon on the McKenzie River. You can hike the many trails, visit the spectacular waterfalls, fish the nearby lakes, and a whole lot more.
Patio is located at the gateway to a very beautiful area of the western Cascade Mountains. With two clubhouses, nine acres and a great riverfront location, Patio has room for groups of more then 60 RVs. Normally on fall, winter, and spring days there are sites available for even the last minute planner. Even during the summer the ample amount of spacious sites makes a last minute reservation possible. Of course, the best sites always go to those who plan ahead.
Nestled at the base of the mountains just off Hwy 126, Patio is about a 45 minute drive from Springfield by car or by bus (The LTD Bus stops at our entry). There are about 20 sites right near the McKenzie River. From there you can listen to and watch the river pass by. Most of the other sites, a little further from the river, have carports and storage closets to accommodate those who would like to take advantage of our lower monthly and yearly rates.
While most day visitors are here in the summer, there are still plenty of things to do in all four seasons. The award winning Tokatee, less than a mile away is open in the spring, summer, and fall. But winter time means great skiing only a half hour away and since Patio is part of the Hoodoo Ski Area family, great ski packages are available.

Near the River is Awesome, Camp Ground kinda Quirky
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).
