Camped right on the river lots of space mens bathrooms were disgusting women's were fine definitely not a resort but all in all we had a good time

We were told there was availability to check in early. After driving for 3hrs and arriving at 10:30pm we found someone living in the spot we had reserved months prior. When we called to find out what was going on we were told some story about systems being changed in and if felt like poor management issues more than anything.

Stayed in this RV park for 2 nights & had an overall peaceful stay. I had a site right near the river which made sleeping so nice. 💚 Sherri was super nice & helpful in getting me in when I called. The only downfall was there was no WiFi connection up when I stayed which made communication a little difficult. Definitely would recommend & come back.

The place is run down. When you first pull onto the property it looks like a homeless camp the RV's are all very old the structures ( carports look they were built in the 50's. When you get down to the river where our sites were, nothing had been cleaned up, there's a concrete slab, but the sites are all dirt, so if it rained everything would be muddy.... This could be a very nice campground, but It would take time and labor.

We loved staying here in our travel camper on the McKenzie River. I mean we stayed right on the river. We could hear the rushing river and it was so soothing. Nice and clean restrooms and showers. Wonderful lady who runs the office. Very accommodating and kind.

Full of tweakers and alcoholics. It's a detriment to the community. Poorly managed and maintained

We booked this place for several sites way ahead of time and all of a sudden, just few weeks before arrival we got a call that our reservations for all the sites we booked are canceled!!! The owner was mumbling some made up stories about workers staying in this place and she can’t accommodate us and told me to call the neighbor rv park to book! Seriously? By the tome and voice of the rv park owner i knew right away her story is made up and total bull….. Stay away from this park. They do not owner your reservations

Nice place on the river! Clean rv park with full hookups, hot showers, laundry. The wifi service was spotty especially where I was camping right next to the river. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend for your next visit to the McKenzie River area.

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).

The location of this RV park is fantastic, right on the edge of the McKenzie river. We stayed in spot #15 right at the edge of the park and one row away from the river. It was very nice and the last two days the spot between us and the river was vacant, so we were able to sit on that site and enjoy the river. The park itself is a bit run down, water pressure was very low and the bathrooms were close because of the pandemic. Staff was friendly and helpful.
