    I've been staying at Phoenix RV Park for years. It was always the park of choice when I came to…read moreSalem to visit my children and grandchildren. Then I retired and in September of 2024, I made it my full-time home base. Over the past summer, I traveled more than 12,000 miles, visiting 53 RV parks along the way. I can honestly say that Phoenix RV Park is the best park I stayed in all summer. The streets are paved, and the sites are concrete. There is a patch of green grass between the sites along with trees, shrubbery, and foliage. Although I was gone at the time, I understand there was a problem with the irrigation system this past summer. However, when I returned in October, the grass at my site was still green, and it was obvious, from the work I could see going on, that the park was putting a significant amount of money into getting the system upgraded and repaired. The grounds are well maintained. Phoenix RV Park has cleanest laundry facilities I used all summer, including many public laundromats. In addition, there are three small dog parks, restrooms with showers, a workout/meeting room, a small store with RV essentials, a huge DVD library and even a gathering room with a full kitchen that is available with prior arrangements. You can tell that a great deal of effort is put into providing a welcoming environment for the residents. I understand that there may be plans in the works to make it even more "homey" for those of us who call it home. Melanie (the manager) and Rob (all around maintenance guy) run the park well. Melanie has always been friendly, helpful, and cooperative, and has gone out of her way to provide me with reasonable requests. From the research I did, Phoenix RV Park is, at the very least, competitively priced, and is lower than many other RV Parks in the northern Willamette Valley. I've made some meaningful friendships in the time I've been here. Overall, I'd recommend Phoenix RV Park all day long. It's a place to put down some of your roots and stay a while.

    It has taken me awhile to write this review but it is an odd one. My husband and I chose this place…read morefrom its stellar reviews and the wonderful images online. We were looking for something long term, and when I called we lucked out and they had a space. Now let's get into the details. I explained the size of our trailer and truck, they said we would fit. We got to the park and we were pleasantly surprised in the beginning because it was pretty, a pretty parking lot but pretty. Our site was back in, and we barely fit. They "oversaw" our parking, kept telling us we could move over (if we moved over more our slide out would have been in their bushes). The man who was overseeing our parking also insisted that I was not leveling our trailer properly and that their cement slabs were perfectly even, ours was not. They didn't want us to back up closer to the fence so there was room for movement, but other trailers were. The space next to our trailer consisted of a parking space, which with our trailer and our truck, we had barely room to walk in between the two, so no space. Then there was the grass, oh the grass. Each sight has strip of grass, which they do NOT want you to walk on, or your dogs to walk on, or anything. Now, I refer you back our truck barely fit in the space, so of course we had to walk on the grass to get into the truck, and we receive admonishing emails for it. Any open grass was also not for dogs. They had mini dog spaces at the end of the park, covered in wood chips, our dogs seemed oddly nervous to go in there, and due to the dog virus going around this time, we had to drive our dogs out of the park to potty them. There were a few gunshots while were there for the 30 days, we heard them, however, they do have security that drives around the park at night so that was nice. They are backed up against a Safeway, and if you have those spaces they reverberate all night as the trucks come in. They have other pull through spaces supposedly for temporary and one night guests, but there were long term guests there as well. Ultimately, this park is stellar if you want a pretty , well manicured park, that you do not want to meet your neighbors, have an outside environment and you have small dogs. If you want a neighborhood feel, with space for your dogs, and space for you, I would steer clear. Laundry room was stellar. Water pressure was mediocre.

We stayed at the Blue Ox RV Park in Albany. We were worried since we thought it might be noisy and Albany isn't really a tourist city with much to do. But we had a great time. The caretakers keep it immaculate. They are extremely friendly and helpful. At night, it was so quiet. RVs were coming and going, but were asked to do 5 miles an hour and they did so. Keeping it safe for us to walk our small dog. It was a great experience. We had a really nice stay. If it was warmer, we would've went swimming. But we had a horrible rain storm. The only thing I suggest is if you are going to be working on your laptop and need consistent Wi-Fi, you might want to bring your own set up. It was at times spotty and at times great but also at times there was no Wi-Fi at all. But I love books and I enjoyed reading during the rain storm. Also, they have a nice Keurig K cup coffee in the lobby during office hours if you want to just enjoy one cup of coffee. Great place to stay. I would definitely come back!

    Our 2nd stop in Oregon was at a clothing optional resort called The Willamettans ("The Willies" for…read moreshort). Even though it's clothing optional, most people were nude. It's the largest resort we've visited and reminded us the most of our home resort in Florida (Lake Como). There are many amenities including tennis, pickleball, shuffleboard and volleyball courts, the latter of which sadly aren't used. We've found it interesting that grass & sand volleyball aren't a popular activity out west like it is at mid-west and Eastern nudist resorts. Most hadn't even heard of "Super Bowl" (the large volleyball tournament in PA at White Thorn Lodge Nudist Resort each Labor Day...or the southern version at Lake Como in March). Actually, many hadn't even heard of Lake Como...it's been a wonderful journey telling people about the resorts in Florida and learning about all the well-known resorts out this way. The Willies boasts a large, pristine pool area with beautiful sunning decks. I love sunning and looking out at the fir trees and mountains...a common loveliness of these Pacific NW resorts! There is a nice little playground right outside the pool fence. The hot tub is enclosed and adjacent to the pool. Their large rec hall (which they call their Lodge) connects them all & offers enclosed showers & bathroom, though the outdoor pool showers were artistic & welcoming. The Lodge had the best stock of games & puzzles, a foosball & ping pong table, a coffee station, and a great array of comfy couches. This is one of a few central common areas in the resort. Another area just a little walk from the pool area houses their "Full Moon Saloon" bar & dance hall, an incredibly stocked craft room, a small merchandise store (The Bun), and a large, comfortable shower house. Plus, their cafe & snack shack are right across from the bar, offering a pretty nice fare on the weekends (there aren't snacks for sale or a community kitchen area during the week here, but there is a microwave and fridge for common use at the Lodge...and the rooms have small ones, too.) Other common areas include the dog park, trails, & sports area (as mentioned above). Near the office is their AANR-NW Library which is a treasure trove of photos, artifacts, and books about the resorts in this area. The Willies recently hosted the AANR-NW annual conference and built a really cool "Bridge to the Future" commemorating each resort or club in this region on a plaque (picture included). We had the pleasure of getting a tour from a couple of board members. They don't normally allow photos at this resort but they gave us permission & accompanied us, sharing so much about it. I was touched & impressed with their active involvement in not only their own resort, but also the greater community. They donate pounds of food every year and sponsor a local HS scholarship. The whole place is a volunteer-based co-op...everyone is asked to pitch in with the work and maintenance needed to keep the resort a premier place to live & visit. There were chore bulletin board that everyone uses to know what needs done. They were especially proud of a new project in the resort to be better stewards of the environment through a comprehensive recycling program. It is very obvious of the care and love they and the residents & members take here. You could feel it! Their landscaping was so pretty, flower beds are scattered across the grounds, and volunteers were seen working on repairs and maintenance. They have removed many old "bunkies" (cabins or RV rentals) and upgraded them. One particular one looked like a top-notch hotel room with modern decor and fresh paint & flooring. We love "rustic" but it's nice to see "well-kept rustic"! The RV spaces were the best we've seen...many have a nice patch of grass and they're all well laid out. Same with the tent spaces...each is nestled in a little wooded area of its own. We loved the social vibe of The Willies. They host an event once a month. There are lots of pictures of past events and it is apparent the fun had here. They do themed events where costumes are encouraged. Recent Alice in Wonderland and Roaring 20's party pictures were on display. We enjoyed the Wednesday night karaoke. We were on to our next resort before this weekend's Neon Glow 70's themed dance. Their biggest event is their annual Rennaissance Fair in September. We are sad we won't be in the area to participate in that. This is a place we will definitely revisit! I can see many summers spent here. The weather is perfection (not too dry, not too humid), the people were friendly, and the grounds & amenities were amazing.
