    Thank you for bringing this error to our attention. However, according to Google Maps the correct coordinates for this park are: 41.542788, -124.052074 . I have verified these with Google Street View and this is definitely the Chinook RV Park.

    It looks like the pin is set more in the park rather than at the entrance where they usually are set, but I don't think that should make a big difference.

    That's where Google Maps happens to have its pin set for that park

    There must have been some sort of internets glitch last time I clicked on the Google Map URL because that is certainly not where the pin came up. Oh well, seems to be working now.
