We spent a week at this great little park with it's pull-in sites on the golf course. Convenient to Astoria and other Columbia River attractions, the large, level gravel sites and manicured green grass provided plenty of room in this quiet location. Free W-iFi is provided and works fairly well; Verizon cell and Air Card service was very good. No facilities other than a great site and view which is fine with us; but not a family campground. The friendly folks that checked us in provided us with an armload of maps and guidebooks. A place we'll return to. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a first class RV Resort on a 9 hole golf course. Astoria is a beautiful town which you should plan on staying 3-4 days to explore the surrounding area. We selected this park based on its great reviews on this site as we have never have been to Astoria as we work our way down the Oregon Coast. This is a new park designed for big rigs stopping to play golf or enjoy the local seafood. The sites are large and well designed. A bit expensive at $38 in October but well worth the money. We hope to come back when we can spend some more time. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Stayed a week and rate reflects that. Large pull through or pull in/back out sites with grass between sites. Has a nine-hole golf course, but we didn't use it. Great location. Owners are very accommodating and give a very good briefing with brochure they made up with several day trips in the area. They also recommended restaurants which were nice. Whatever you do eat fish and chips at the Bowpicker in Astoria. Fried albacore tuna. As of 9-9-09 the laundry room hasn't been built yet. This is a new park. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed here for two nights. Hosts were friendly. Only some of the sites have sewer hookup so make sure you specifically request one if this is important to you. Only complaint was that the cable hookup had to serve two sites, so I ended up buying a splitter at a nearby Wal-Mart so that we could share the cable hookup with the RV that was already next to us. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This campground overall was excellent. The sites and landscaping were perfect. The owners live on site and are friendly, helpful and informative and want you to have a good stay. The sites were large enough to accommodate our 43' motorhome with no problem with all the hookups and free Wi-Fi. We will definitely stay there again when passing through next year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
As this is a new park, it is clean and is convenient to many area attractions. Nice level sites with gravel and grass between the sites. The lack of showers and laundry was a bit of a let down since it was advertised on the web site when we booked. They have not yet been completed. The hosts are very friendly and have lots of helpful information for the area. The golf course on the other hand was a disappointment. As stated earlier, most of the greens are made of Astor turf and difficult to try to land any shots. Only played one round of 9 holes, would not play again. Hopefully in time the course can be improved. This resort had it been completed and a improved golf course could easily rate a 10. Would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
The campground is a recent development. The spots are clean gravel and the street is paved. The electrical hookups are 20-30-50amp, though the 30amp has a non-standard socket, so I used a 50amp adapter. The lady who runs the park is not always available, but both she and husband are very friendly and willing to work with you on late stays, etc. The golf course is about what you would expect for $10/9 holes. There is one par 3, one par 5 and 7 par 4s. The fairways are fairly good, but the greens are a major disappointment. The size of the greens is about 25% of what you would expect. 7 of the holes have mats for the green which means your approach shots will not hold like they would on a normal green. The mats do not give a true roll. The apron around the green is very weedy and uneven. On the other two holes, the greens are cut fairway grass and the hole is about 7 inches or so in diameter! None of the holes give a true chance to work on approach pitches and chips. Many of the holes lack the distance markers alluded to on the scorecard. The real sad part is that I think this course could really be something. With real greens of a fairly normal size and some other small maintenance, this could be a real gem. Sadly, it isn't so. By all means visit the park, but if you are at all serious about golf, modify your expectations accordingly. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a new RV park still in development. The golf course (9 hole) is really nice and priced right for a quick game and right next to the RV sites. The sewer hookups are limited but the owner stated the sewer will be done by the year's end. Owners very helpful and just nice folks. Great location for visit to local parks and the area sites. The Silver Salmon restaurant was great. Will return to this park next year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We enjoyed our stay at this campground. It is small, which we like, and very clean and neat. Look forward to having a fence to separate the site from the road,all sites having sewer hookups instead of just a few and adding showers and restrooms. The owners are friendly. Price is reasonible. This campground will only get better as the owners complete their work. We visit Astoria 2-3 time a year and will always choose this campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a new park and is exceptionally well planned. The driveways are very wide and there is an exceptional amount of space for parking a toad. The sites are packed gravel with concrete sidewalks on both sides. All sites face the golf course. The sites next to the course are pull-ins and the second row of sites are pull-thrus. We were met by the owner, who provided us with lots of information about the area-- including both tourist and restaurant information. Our pull-thru site did not have a working sewer connection due to the newness of the park. The connections should be open soon. The owner offered to allow us to park in one of the pull-in sites so that we would have sewer connections; however, we stayed for only two nights and did not need that service. We would certainly stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Finally Astoria has a classy alternative to the very busy Fort Stevens State Park, or the pricey/crowded Warrenton/Seaside KOA! Big-rig friendly RV park overlooking magnificently lush new golf course. Right off business-101 in south Astoria: 25 level, packed-gravel, 30/50amp, pull-thrus and face-ins completed at this post. Cable TV, Wi-Fi, clubhouse and plenty of grassy elbow-room. Excellent satellite and cell reception. Misses a 10 as septic/dump station and laundry still off site... (Oregon growth initiatives very slooooow). Saavy, outgoing owners are a delight! Wonderfully close to all the fabulous history and sites of Astoria...we'll be back! We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is destined to become a wonderful RV park, but is not finished yet. As was noted in previous reviews, the sewers are not in. There is no laundry or shower or toilet facilities. The cable TV isn't in yet either. WiFi is just barely passable. The managers are really nice, and are working hard to get it together, but the hard winter has slowed progress on finishing the park. Would stay again (in about a year). We camped here in a Motorhome.
This will be a 10 when completed! The sewers aren't yet functioning but all sites will have them. The owners are terrific (and guided us to the best priced meal in town - Yum!) The sites are level, clean and terrific, with a view of the golf course. The hookups are side-by-side, but we can live with that - besides which it isn't yet discovered and it's the wrong season so it's sparsely settled. Their website needs some work for the RV part, including a map. The park is close to shopping and sights to see. There are no trees to block my satellites. Life is good. We'll be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
