We stayed at Gorge Base Camp for a recent visit to Hood River, and while there were a few positives, overall the experience just didn't work for us. On the upside, the park is extremely clean, and the location is super convenient for exploring Hood River and the surrounding area. The convenience store next door came in handy more than once, which was a nice bonus. Unfortunately, there were quite a few downsides that made our stay less than enjoyable. The staff member we interacted with was surprisingly rude and unhelpful, which set a negative tone right off the bat. The layout of the park offers zero privacy--the office is located in the center, and all the sites circle around it like spokes on a wheel. We were placed right at the entrance, next to the dumpster and the dog post, where people regularly dropped off their dog waste. Not exactly the most relaxing spot. The park is very small, with no fire pits, no river access, and little to do onsite. If you're hoping for a scenic or peaceful camping experience, this isn't the place. One of the biggest issues, though, was the freight train that passes by multiple times every night. It's incredibly loud and woke me up every single time. The other side of the park runs along a busy highway, which adds even more noise. I really wish I had taken the time to read more reviews before booking--we definitely won't be returning. The train alone is a dealbreaker.

Fantastic park ! Impeccably maintained and great management. Right across the Columbia from HoodRiver, . Sites handle 45' pushers and large 5th wheels with ease, very cool tent area as well.The parking of RVs in HoodRiver is a bit tough. HR has great day use parks right on the beach and a large event venue area but RVs are not allowed, which makes Bridge RV Park a real treat. Great 50a power, spotless laundry and rest rooms top things off

Just so you know I'm new to the RV World!! That's why I try to take as many pictures as possible!! We had to change our reservation serval times due to my work schedule. There was no hassle changing our reservations and no penalty fees. Once we arrive to this location check in was a breeze. Just so you know if you stay at this RV park and plan to go on to the Oregon side you have to pay a dollar to use the bridge. The RV park itself was very well maintained and you are not sitting on top of your neighbors. You kind of get a little view of the river in between the trees. There was a tree near the RV park which hosted a mama eagle and her baby. So the negative was the train that I believe goes by every 30 minutes. Sometimes during the night I swear I felt the ground shake. But honestly I didn't mind. To me it's better than hearing ignorant loud nearby people!! Hahaha

We stuck out unnervingly.

See all

It was a little tight for our 40 foot motorhome that was towing a trailer but it worked.
