    Winter wonderland hike along the Deschutes
    William B.

    Residents of Bend so lucky to have this fantastic park minutes away. Nestled along the Deschutes river, this large park with lots of parking and trails is beautifully maintained. There is a parking fee ($5 i think). Came here with family on Christmas Eve and hiked the easy trail up the river for a couple miles - utterly beautiful and spectacular! Signs posted about fishing, as of this writing, 'keep as many brown trout' as you want. Holy Fishtails, batman! Coming back here in the spring! Saw a fisherman putting on his waders, asked him about tackle (he showed me, I'm not tellin!) and said he regularly catches 1-1.5lb trout here. Definitely worth the visit.

    Tumalo State Park is a exceptional outdoor venue situated in the city of Bend, Oregon. It's a great place to hike, and the one-day usage fee is a very reasonable $5. The park proved itself to be quite lovely, but I was pressed for time and only spent a day here initially. The hike I chose for myself was the Canyon Loop Trail. This trail offers both areas of green forest and rocky stretches as well. It's a very scenic and relaxing hike, with a difficulty level between advanced beginner and intermediate. The day I visited it wasn't crowded at all, and the weather was prefect for day hiking :-) There's enough good signage along the trail that you're very unlikely to get lost - I had no problem at all finding my way. During the hike I saw a fair amount of wildlife, including several small birds and a pair of otters. This park also offers overnight camping areas - next time I'll probably plan on two days of hiking with a night of camping in between.

    Nice place to camp! A mix of hookup and non-hookup sites mixed throughout so you might see tent campers next to RVs. There are group sites and all are near restrooms. A nice playground, hiking trails, and a beautiful river offer things to do right inside the park. All in close proximity to the city of Bend and all there is to do. Camp hosts are on top of the behavior of guests. They will enforce all rules. Great place to camp for those passing through like us or if you'd like to vacation longer.

    We stopped here for a picnic lunch on the way from Boise, Idaho to the Oregon Coast. The park is very pretty and clean, and this was the perfect spot to take a break and enjoy the day. There were lots of families and groups there, and the atmosphere there was really friendly. Great park! Loved it!

    Winter stay (Feb) of 2 nights in a yurt, by 2 of us during an ale visit to Bend. We ate and played in town, using the yurt at night. Due to the season, only loop B of the 3 camping loops was open, and it seemed like about half of the spots were being used - either using yurts or camping trailers/RVs. As it was winter and people rarely ventured out, we rarely saw other campers Yurt 10Y loop B - perfect as it was close to the bathroom and showers. - sleeping for up to 5 people, and as it was just 2 of us we had plenty of room. - single small table with 2 chairs. - electric heater, which kept temperature at about 55-60 degrees when it was 25-35 outside (with no wind and some snow). TIP: in winter one might want to bring a portable electric heater. According to the guestbook in the yurt, several parties before us had done this. - we slept in sleeping bags directly on the provided vinyl-covered mattresses. Though some reviewers found them too firm, we had no problem. - electric lighting was sufficient, with a dimmable overhead lamp and 2 smaller lamps. - There are a total of 4 electrical outlets, of which 2 are used by the 2 smaller lamps - which we rarely turned on. - Overhead variable-speed fan. The transparent bubble above the fan can be raised fro venting. Showers: 5.0. Awesome even in winter as each shower has a heat lamp. Very clean. Bathroom: 4.5. Very clean and heated.

    Great place ! Not many people walking around. Ole ty of room to spread apart and walk around and enjoy the park

    Inside of the yurt - lights, heat, power outlets.

    This campground is exceptionally well taken care of (we visited in Spring). There is heat in the showers and stations for dishes. There is also a nice playground down the path from the yurts for young children. We stayed in the yurt to keep dry from the rain and it was perfect for our 3 person family. There is heat, power outlets, a fan, lights, and plenty of furniture inside of the yurt. Can't wait to visit again!

    Great state campground. Clean showers & bathrooms, close to town & the Deschutes River. Fire rings & tables at each site though no fires were allowed while we were there due to current fires within the state. Found the on site camp hosts to be friendly & helpful. Looking forward to going back and checking out one of the cabins on a future visit.

    Nice little state park. Well maintained. Crowded but quiet. Didn't have a lot of time to walk the trails but the ones that I did were nice.

    Not a bad little campground but for $20, I just wish I could've had warm water in my shower.

    What a well maintained and clean park! We were in Bend for five days and stayed at Sun Outdoors…read more The sites are long and paved with pavers. Hook ups as well as a trash can/recycling bin. Valet trash service. A storage shed for your toys- The clubhouse is well appointed: pool table/popcorn/TV/fire pits/corn hole/hot tub/sauna The desk is staffed until 10pm There is a small sundrys store and ice is available for purchase. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We appreciated the policy of kids under 14 needing to be accompanied by an adult in the clubhouse areas We were in site #432e. The site is situated in the end near a fence. Across from the fence is a pretty busy road. The site itself is wide. Tricky getting. If the site next to you is occupied. We backed into the spot next to us to turn around then backed into our spot. Otherwise you would be backing down the whole way. No wood fires allowed $$$

    We enjoyed our stay here June 18-22. Staff was friendly and efficient…read more This large RV park has well spaced, level spots, the RV's go on pavers, trucks park on asphalt next to pavers. 20/30/50 amp svc, water, discharge etc all there. They come round and pickup garbage and recycle daily (yes you get two separate bins) Pros: Sauna (yes, sauna), showers included (no tokens required!). Clean bathrooms. Free coffee, popcorn in afternoon, lounge, firepits, BBQ, pickleball, board games. Cons: Extremely high prices ($600+ for 5 nights), super annoying 'resort fee' nuisance fee tacked on ($15/night), $10/night for xtra car. And then we get charged Bends 'Hotel Tax' on top of it all. The 'free internet' is next to useless, HS internet is vendored by a THIRD PARTY and charges high daily fees for usage, with no local support.
