"Excellent faculties with easy access to amenities. Sat by a campfire pit in the evenings and went to sleep with the sound of the river surrounding us. What more could you ask for."

$24 - $38 / night
"Wonderful view of the Columbia River and the Washington side of the river. Easy drive to the Dalles to get anything you might need. Bathrooms are very clean, showers are hot and long."

"Viento is a nice state park along 84 right outside of hood river. It is along the columbia river and has beach access."
"Short, 5 minute walk to the river.
A train track runs throught the middle of the campground. Trains run every hour or so. VERY loud.
Tent spots were $8. Rv spots were $24."

"I have kind of a love/hate thing going on for Lost Lake Campgrounds.
Pros: It is beautiful. There's a reason it's one of Oregon's most photographed sites."

$30 - $60 / night
"We picked this campground at the last minute as we were returning from a Christmas stay in central Washington. The reservation staff was very professional and helpful."
"The highway is at a higher elevation than the park, so that noise didn't particularly bother us either. Perhaps it is just that our van is well sound insulated or we're not light sleepers! "
"A bit of a drive to get there but worth it. Extremely well-run campground in a beautiful setting with good access to the town of Hood River."
"Important to know … it is situated on a hilly property, so it’s not an easy stroll to the restrooms and showers unless one is young/athletic."
$20 - $30 / night
"So nice to have first come/first serve campgrounds so close to Portland. I arrived around 2 on a Wednesday in August and grabbed one of 3 open sites."
"It's already lush and green but the trails running from the camp still haven't been cleared fully, and you hike at your own risk."
$27 / night
"This camp has RV sites, tent sites and beautiful cabins with porch swings and is located close to the Columbia River waterfalls."
"There is a train that runs along the back of the campground which can be loud if your site is close by. The train noise did not bother us in the center of the park where we were."
$25 / night
"It has a decent distance from other campers and I don’t feel like I’m crunched up in my camp ground. Water is around certain campsites. #3 unfortunately did not have running water near by."
"We loved our spot in the woods with water tap right outside. Friendly hosts delivered fire wood right to my campground."
TravelerCampsite has a well maintained dirt road connecting it to the highway, has a beautiful overlook of a creek
ScoutI love how Vanessa mentioned the creek access from that first campsite! As someone who's been searching for dispersed camping spots with water features, this feels like such a gem. The fact that Forest Service regularly patrols is actually reassuring rather than intrusive- I've been to some dispersed sites that felt a bit too"wild west" if you know what I mean. I've been using offline hiking apps for my trips in the Gifford Pinchot, but I hadn't considered Little Soda Springs until now. That tip about downloading maps beforehand due to no cell service is crucial- learned that lesson the hard way last summer near Mt. Adams! Anyone know if the creek is suitable for filtering drinking water, or should I pack in all I need?
ScoutBusy campgrounds, but nice. Variety of sites from small and shaded to open and sunny. Both day use and river access from the camping area were lovely and the water was perfect to cool off after a hot day.
Hosts were helpful. Bathrooms and showers were clean.
TravelerThis place is so beautiful. Right on the river, clean and cell service is great. WiFi works great. Full hook up’s and showers. Great fishing and star gazing and a cute little town a walk away. I will be back.
GuideI decided to come back thinking I'd stay in the same spot as last time, but it was occupied. Thank goodness! Because I found THE most amazing spot!
GuideOnly stayed one night wit RV trailer. Nice park with sufficient site size. Many sites were reserved but empty which made it less busy. Falls were amazing. Road in from either side is rough so allow some extra time for the drive. Both Google Maps and Wave were 1.5hr off on estimated time for the drive (4 hrs from Tacoma). There is no electricity or dump station. The Upper loop has a hand-pump well for water. Multiple outhouses are around the sites.
GuideNice convenient RV stop off of highway 97. Immaculate bathrooms. Mountain views of both Mt Hood and Mt Adams.
GuideWe visited again and it was completely full except for one spot where you have to hike in. Not a fan of not having our car right there but it's not so far it's unreachable and if you're really ambitious you can even easily get to the bathroom with a short hike. Other campers were courteous and we never heard anyone else while we were there. The site was super private by the river spacious and beautiful. All around a win for shell rock creek.
ScoutJust got home from 5 days in site 009. Our site was large and pretty level. Campground was once a single/double-wide trailer park for govt employees so the hook-ups are located in odd spots for RV. We used 20 ft. Of septic drain hoses. Water was cold and crystal clear. Virtually no cell service (one bar if you stood in just the right spot). Dog friendly. A couple of small hiking trails. Picnic table and grated firepit on site. Some of the sites had uphill or downhill entries. The tussok caterpillars were a huge nuisance, but we weren't bothered by a huge number of other bugs.
