Celilo Park Recreation Area

So we love water. This place is dog and kid friendly. It has beautiful green lawns that run from the parking lot to the beach. There is a train track close by and the 84 is also close by. You can stay for free for up to 14 days. We have a generator and a 40’ fifth wheel. We had plenty of parking. Restrooms are very clean, but no showers.

We also have a four year old son and a dog.

Pulled in to find a sign that read “Now Day Use Only.” A large and long parking lot with grassy areas and beachfront. An active train runs on the highway side of the parking lot. Restrooms are closed.

There were a A LOT of dead fish along the beach.

This place was a little unclear about the day use/camping areas. However, there were signs inside that said “no camping between signs and so we assumed that the further end was ok for camping, which it is. There is easy ever access which is nice and the grassy park is quite pretty with lots of tables. There were portable bathrooms near the camping end that had notices they they were full and to not use, not sure if they were just for covid or what, but we didn’t need to use. Trains nearby weren’t terrible for us, but maybe we just got lucky. Wouldn’t stay for more than a night, but it serves a purpose!
