Love this place. We have made it a tradition for the past 6 years Labor Day weekend to Come camp here. Great location and. The river is close by. The field has a bunch of pokies in it but I wouldn’t dock my 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ just because of that. It makes it apart of our memories and our experience there. Looking forward to coming back this weekend!!!!

I go there once a year for social gatherings unfortunately I have to change my review due to the fact that the price of their rental spaces have gone up but yet they have a very bad infestation of goat thistle you figure for what you're paying to camp there you would not have to leave there with your clothing and everything covered in prickly stuff it takes forever to get off and in some cases you just might as well throw your shoes away in my case I had to it definitely not recommend this place like I used to unfortunately I would be willing to change my review if they could take that extra money that they are charging and actually spray and get rid of their goat thistle probably won't be back

Great campsite. Pleasant staff and all around enjoyable camping trip. Only 2 cons I have is lack of shade on alot of sites during summer, and locks on the showers need some attention for privacy. We will be returning next summer.

We just purchased a new-to-us motorhome and this was our maiden voyage. We found Vista Park to be absolutely amazing! The location was quiet and the scenery was beautiful. We had reserved a spot right on the Columbia River so we could watch the ships go by, and we were not disappointed. The staff were extremely helpful and informative, and check-in was a breeze. We will definitely be going back here again.
