Nice place to stay. Owner and camp hosts are a bunch of good people. Definitely would go back.
Sherry Kirstine
Nice location. No sewer or dump station and not one near by. Wrote this 4 years ago. Things are getting better for this park. Sewer system is in the plants to be started in the near future. We are so excited because we love coming here. Everyone is still friendly and the park is spotless.
Michael Conner
Just the basics. Clean bathrooms. Park was clean and quiet. Would come back again.

Stayed here for 7 nights, main reason was for fishing and a couple of off days. This site was very clean, had the cleanest restrooms and showers I have ever seen at any campsite. We met the maintenance guy, Blaine, and he does a great job taking care of the place. There was an area to park boats, a tent area, and a fish cleaning station. Close to Astoria if you want to go for a drive, beaches, Long Beach, shops, etc. No sewer hook ups, but the bathrooms and showers we close by and in great condition. Great experience, no complaints.

Really nice RV campground in Chinook. Very clean restrooms and decent showers. My little sister is a member and we enjoy the grounds. The host is very pleasant and friendly. Close to the beautiful Columbia River.

We’ve been here every year for years. Great staff and owners. You’ve got to understand the area to understand why there’s no septic. It’s VERY hard to maintain as the ground is so wet that the tanks fill with dirt and sand. There use to be septic. We stay long durations for the fishing season. The review that people live here is absolutely incorrect in every aspect. There’s grass and trees. There’s a fish cleaning station, and field in the back with a forest behind it. The only people who live here are camp hosts. It’s a shame people review things and places they know NOTHING about. This is definitely not the most pampered of the KM resorts, but you’re here for the incredible outdoors. Go in any direction and you find so many beautiful places to see and things to do. This place is clean, well maintained with great people working here. I’m so thankful for it.

This is a km resort. No full hookups but water and 30 amp service. Nice sites on grass and great staff. We love coming here.
Danita Parker
This is a nice, quiet place to stay. The park has grass for all the RV spots and a gravel road. There are a few trees, and they are all trimmed for large units. The bathrooms and showers are well cared for and clean. The only downside is there is no septic dump. We enjoyed walking to the Port of Chinook and watching the ducks, geese, herons, eagles etc.

Great people working there. Very friendly. No dump station. Could use a little updating.
