Staff, owners, very friendly helpful, park is beautiful, well maintained, roads are gravel but smooth well maintained, sites are average sized width, ample enough to easily walk around with slides on both sides out. , site long enough could have stayed hooked up. (truck trailer just shy of 60 ft) site was spotless, and well graveled level. Sites on forested side are cut into the hillside, but cut at an angle from the main road that are easy to back in, just using mirrors, no spotter needed. No off air TV reception, had no problem connecting to WiFi, cell reception. Lots of foliage, birds, etc it was our 29th anniversary, the owners where willing to direct/assist with making sure the delivery driver found our sight. (flowers n basket for wife). the only negatives, I would say are minor, and probably more of my personal preference item: * i like to choose my own site not be assigned, that being said i asked for a wooded, isolated sight,, got wooded and in an area we would have to our self for 4 of our 5 nights, and really enjoyed the sight chosen for us. (we try to isolate we have a dog who barks too much). *i don't like having to pay for showers, the hassle of having to have quarters, i feel like at a certain price point it should be included. * i would prefer to have a private changing area, for privacy and to keep an eye on my stuff. ( i know nobody wants my dirty socks and boxers) the shower timers are accurate or slightly generous, water was hot, bathroom was not drafty, and everything was clean. We camped at Timberlake Campground & RV in a Travel Trailer read more

Super clean super quiet. Hardly saw anyone come out of their RV's litterally " quiet as a church. lots of good shade and clean bathrooms and showers . Great tent areas but RV CAMPING IS CRAZY! Many of the sites have VERY STEEP approaches no pull thru sites that I could see. Hoped for a lake ( Timberlake) or a stream or hiking. we have a 22ft trailer and big diesel 4wd and in low range it was difficult to get in site 32. $154 for two nights. well organized great office staff but would not go back unless their was absolutely nothing else available. They did inform us before hand fwd would be required to get in the site. Most of the sites were the same . Down by the office there were long timers camped right next to each other. read more

Very nice and clean campsite! The host was very friendly and accommodating! Restrooms were clean and the office has all the basic stuff that you'll need! We highly recommend it and will be back again! read more

We recently rented a sprinter van and toured around Oregon. We stayed at Timberlake while we were in the Columbia River Gorge area. It was a nice property but the sites were close together and you have to have a roll of quarters to shower. One quarter buys you 1.5 min of hot water. Otherwise it was centrally located for all the things we wanted to see such as Multnomah Falls and the Sunshine Mill Winery in the Dalles. Since we stayed at several other campgrounds which allowed free hot showers we were a little disappointed about this setup. read more

My family stayed here midweek for 4 nights. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bathrooms clean.

Great clean campground, clean bathrooms and friendly staff. Only reason I gave them 4 stars. Wish the spots were a little larger to have room to walk around the RV or park bikes and based on the name I was expecting a lake to go fishing in. read more

This is the best campground we've ever stayed at, hands down. Really uniquely set up with sites set in nooks & crannies or on terraced "steps" with significant vegetation between for shade & privacy. Nice store & helpful staff. A little remote, but we like that. 15-20 mins away from great restaurants/breweries. read more

Serenity in the Forest We loved this place. We have a 24' RV and called the same morning for a possible spot. Luckily there was one spot and we grabbed it. Little did we know that the photos here don't do it justice. Read the 5 star reviews and they capture the essence. From the owners to the crickets to the tree lined spots. You will feel more secluded here that in a flat park. It's so close to the river that you can hike to fish (or drive). Really great. read more

What a gorgeous campground. At this time of year, it is such a green, lush and quiet place to visit. We were using our trailer and our space was very clean and peaceful. However, we took a walk through the park and were amazed at the large beautiful tent spaces. Rob, Sissily? (so sorry, I'm terrible with names), and Marissa were awesome. Rob helped us back our trailer into our camping spot, which was a Godsend since we are pretty much newbies to the trailer world. The locations was great for checking out some beautiful spots. Unfortunately, we didn't do our homework, so we weren't aware of the fire last year that destroyed most of the great hiking trails. Even so, we saw seven or eight beautiful water falls, some with decent hikes. The Columbia Gorge is just a beautiful place to visit. read more

Very nice stay. Some of the RV spots are very close to one another and others are spaced out. We had one that practically by itself, and very private. Nice location and very quiet for the most part. I believe there is logging going on next property over and were awaken most mornings by heavy equipment in use on that property. Nothing that the owners are responsible for, but it breaks up the peace and quiet. Fire wood was the best in town. Very dry and easy to get going. That is a plus after buying firewood at many campgrounds and finding it to damp to light. Campground was very clean and has a great dog walking area. Probably the top 3 campgrounds we have stayed at in 10rs of RV'in On a side note, local black and white cat not friendly to dogs. He picked a fight with our boxer and coon dog at the same time !!! The cat is the apex animal on this property !!! read more

It's a little out of the way, which makes it amazing! Great campground if you like the woods. Quiet and removed from the noise of the hi-way. We woke to wild turkeys and deer wandering through our campsite. Full hookups and easy to get in and out of with our 27' trailer. (Plenty of room for larger units as well). This is our second time staying here and glad we found it. Note: it's about 3 miles from Hwy 14 turnoff on a little mountain road so you'll start thinking you missed the camp, but it's there! read more

We stayed here for three nights last week and loved it! It is so well maintained, best restrooms ever at a campground, and the grounds are absolutely gorgeous. Kyle and Marissa are gracious hosts and everyone there is friendly. We strolled around the entire park and discovered one great camp spot after another. There isn't a bad spot in the park. It is quiet, serene and close to hiking, etc. while still feeling remote and private. There is a really nice store for supplies and great T-Shirts! Would highly recommend Timberlake. read more

I was trying to decide if I wanted to go to the coast or go camping in the woods for my bday weekend. I was searching campgrounds and saw the good reviews on Timberlake, so I decided woods it was. So glad I did! My fiancé and I pulled up on Friday afternoon and were greeted right away by the owners Kyle and Marissa. They were very friendly and accommodating from the get go. We tent camped in site 9 and it was nicely secluded. It was just under 30 bucks for the night...much cheaper than the 200 I would have paid for a hotel in Cannon Beach. You can only very faintly hear the sound of the train passing through now and then, but not enough to be bothersome. The campsite is very clean and well maintained. I have camped a lot ever since I was very young and this is by far the nicest campground I have ever been to. The bathrooms are meticulously kept clean...a fact I greatly appreciate. The showers are a quarter per minute and a half. We are new to the area so we had no idea what to expect for surroundings but there is a coffee/cafe spot just down the road from the campground if you really need a decent cup of coffee and breakfast in the morning like we did, you can just go grab it. Yeah I know, it's not really roughing it but I'm ok with that. There are also other restaurants and breweries nearby and they give you coupons in case you're interested in that or zip lining at Skamania lodge. Check in is 2 pm and check out is 12 pm. If they aren't booked, you can extend for $2 per additional hour. Bring bug spray and definitely come check this campground out..You're sure to have a great time in the Columbia river gorge forest. Lots of beautiful hikes and trails nearby. Get an adventure pass cause I saw the rangers out giving tickets to cars without them. It's just breathtaking along the river...we can't wait to come back! read more

This is a wonderful place for tent camping. Kyle and Marissa, the owners/operators, are wonderful. They keep their campground very clean: the showers and toilets were always in perfect shape during the entire week we stayed. They also were helpful with advice on what to do around the gorge with children (they bought the campground in 2016, moving here from SoCal with their own two elementary age kids). The tent sites are spacious, set in a forested, shady area, and far enough apart to afford privacy. They have a 10 pm to 7 am quiet time, which guests abided by, making for better nights and more energy during the day. We had originally meant to stay just three nights, but decided to stay a week and make this our base of operations because we enjoyed it so much! read more

My family decided to take an RV trip around Oregon and Washington. We flew into Portland, rented our RV, and then drove here. It was our first RV park experience ever, and after going to a few on our journey since, we have realized we were spoiled from the get go. We decided on this park because some reviews we saw outside of Yelp said it was far enough from the train tracks to not hear any of the train noise. That was certainly true. At the same time, this place was a slice of heaven. Secluded, quiet, near a creek, well maintained showers/bathrooms and grounds, plus the owner Kyle was super helpful, offering to back us in since I was uncomfortable with a 32' RV as a beginner. I appreciated that, but just used him to help me back in. My kids loved exploring this place, there was a creek near by, beautiful scenery and not overly packed at the time we went. I'd highly recommend this place for staying within striking distance of Columbia River Gorge activities! read more

This post isn't about the campground, but about how amazing Marisa was this last weekend! My friend and I were having trouble finding a local address of our VRBO home and stopped at the local grocer, Select Market in Stevenson, Wa. Troy there tried to help us and part of that was to call the local campground and ask Marisa if she knew where the address was, she didn't, but said she would drive around and see what she could figure out. She met my friend and I in Home Valley and helped us out! THANKS SO MUCH Marisa!!! read more

My wife and I saw the timber but missed the lake... Actually we were very pleased with what we read about the campground on its site, but we found the reality to be a typical moneymaking private campground where no real camper would camp and call it camping. The spots are jammed in way too close together, rules abound (posted everywhere without "pleases"), and costs come into play for everything, including poor quality firewood above convenience store prices. I'id like to be able to attach a picture of our camp fire, our $17 camp fire. What would be pictured would be the smoldering entirety of the wood, which all had to be burned at once in order to keep the wet, low grade wood from smoldering weakly without flames. I am a seasoned backcountry sportsman who has made fires to save his own life in wet conditions. This wasn't an operator error issue. One might ask, "why did you buy it then, dude?" We called in advance of our trip and asked about the availability of campwood. Leroy, the proprietor, told me "Oh don't worry about firewood; we have plenty of that." He mentioned no costs, and many campgrounds include wood with camping fees, which are too high at 30 bucks a night. My wife and I cut firewood every year at our own expense and would have brought out own had we known. After the office (a trailer) had closed, we used two small bundles and two small bundles of kindling (I mean small), all of which were wrapped together with 1/2 mile of cellophane, only to determine later that Leroy charged for the crap wood. There were no prices posted anywhere, nor did friendly old Leroy mention them to me on the phone. I see firewood for sale in small bundles all the time, and the prices he asks are absurd. He could have a local woodcutter drop off and stack a cord or three and offer the level of service he suggests on the phone and Internet and that his prices suggest. He could have also said don't worry about it or just give me ten bucks, but he didn't budge or admit any fault for misinforming us. In retrospect, our stay was fun because we were salmon fishing, enjoying each other's company, and drinking IPAs and homemade grape juice and vodka drinks when in the campground. Timberlake Campground offered little more than a narrow driveway, a small and plastic picnic table, a fire ring, and water and electric we didn't need. If you are the kind of traveler who moves from citified campground to campground and want to be more or less left alone during your stay, Timberlake is your place. I guess the showers were nice, but I prefer to stink when I camp. read more

I have never been to a campground in such close proximity, a couple of miles from the Columbia River Gorge, with this much beauty and serenity. For those of you like me, who have previously camped close to the river and are aware of the noisy and disruptive trains at all times of the day or night, Timberlake is the place to camp. Not a single sound of a train. The owners, Kyle and Marissa were so welcoming and friendly. The majority of the campsites, from both RV sites to tent sites, are private and surrounded by trees and greenery. If you are like me, and love to camp with our large family who own several RV's and tents, there are great sites which allow us all to camp as we prefer with lovely pathways between the sites. There is so much to do in the area. We visited some local breweries and wineries and the Bonneville Dam. We took some scenic drives to Mount Adams and Mount Hood. While some family members were having great luck with their salmon fishing, others were busy hiking some of the many hiking trails in this area. Even though I am not a hiker, I enjoyed my visit to Multnomah Falls and I highly recommend walking up to the bridge for some beautiful views. I loved this campground and all its beauty so incredibly much, I went ahead and booked a two week stay here again in August. Cannot wait to return. read more

Love this place have been cooming here for the past four years and there is not a better campground around. Myself and my Sweetie travel 6 hours to camp here with friends every year and the place getts better and better. Leroy and his staff run a very great place clean bathrooms with showers. They have a few tent sites around the park and RV spots. In My humble option this is the place to stay when in the area. If you stay here be sure to say hi to leroy for me. Jon read more

We stayed at this campsite on a hunch that serene wooded area would be more desirable than nestled by train tracks. What a find! The new owners, Marissa and Kyle were delightful. They have a plan and have made many improvements with more on the way. The grounds are gorgeous and kept in pristine condition. Hookups have all been upgraded. The camp dog, Buddy, is a big gentle fluff of love. Restaurant recommendation was great in Stevenson and we were even given a discount by the camp owners. It was called El Rey. Great place to stay for campers or tent dwellers. Highly recommend it!! read more

Attn RVers. Totally don't get the five star reviews. Way too much gravel. I'm parked in a gravel pit with a behemoth RV looking down on either side of my dinky 25' trailer. I freaking hate gravel. Gravel makes me stay in my RV when I'm in the campground, especially when there is zero privacy, or space between RV sites. No tree breaks, no grass meridian, just gravel, RV, gravel, RV. Not the ugliest place I've ever stayed, and I don't know how much I paid, so I can't say it's overpriced. I can, however, say it's definitely underwhelming. Compared to, for instance, Lost Lake Campground , this fails miserably. Truth be told, the campgrounds, outside of the gravel RV sites, are very pretty, and the employees all wonderful, and I'm sure the tent camping experience is much better, but lining up RV's in gravel with a railway tie between them is not a 5 Star experience. Also, the WI-FI was nothing more than a rumor in our space. read more

This park is off the beaten path, but not a bad drive to Stevenson, Hood River and White Salmon. The park itself is very pretty with well-spaced sites and lots of foliage providing both privacy and shade. The park is very clean, very quiet and well-run. Those who greeted us and worked in the office were helpful and friendly. read more

Absolutely love this Campground! We were here for three nights with a trailer and our friends had a 36-foot motorhome. I felt like we were the only two campers in the place. The crickets and frogs were the only thing you could hear at night. The spots above are very large and have a lot of privacy. It's very hilly so can be slightly tricky to get around, but we put it in 4-wheel drive and we were just fine. The cute young couple that runs the place were so sweet and accommodating. Would definitely come back here! read more

I have spent a lifetime camping and this place is beyond - lovely, super wooded, and well kept. Campground is quiet and off the beaten path, but 45 mins from Portland with easy access to any Columbia River Gorge spot - Multnomah, Bonneville Dam, and Hood River / Mt. Hood. The owners go out of their way to help and make sure everyone's experience is exactly how they want it to be. If I was going to get married all over again, I would rent out this campground and use the rustic lodge space and host everyone I love for the weekend. I am a big fan. read more

Nice quiet RV Park away from traffic and train noise. Kyle and his wife are nice owners.

Just spent another three wonderful days at their Campground. Couldn't ask for better surroundings. The Columbia river is so close and so many things to do in the area. Such great owners.... read more

This place is gorgeous, clean, quiet, and friendly. We tent-camped in site 7 and had friends in sites 8 & 9. All of the sites were quiet and felt very secluded. Site 7 is close to the play structure and grassy area, which was great for our 2 kids. My family and I have tent-camped all over California, Oregon, Washington, and Utah and this campground is hands down the nicest we've stayed in. Bathrooms were very clean, the showers were warm and you get a minute and a half of water per quarter, which is well priced compared to several of the campground we've stayed at. We stayed in August, which is clearly their busy time and yet everything was still clean and quiet. It's an easy drive to the campground from Portland and from the campground into Stevenson WA and to the Colombia River. We also enjoyed the easy trip into Hood River one of the days we stayed. All in all an excellent choice for camping and a must if you're camping in the Gorge. Owners are very friendly and helpful as well! read more

After a horrible, desperate stay at Viento State Park, this place was paradise. Silence except for the trees swaying in the breeze at night. Perhaps some people could still hear the train depending on where in the park they camped. Our site was completely silent. This is, of course, a comfort camping ground. It's not anything backwoods. That said, if you're looking for "real" camping, you probably should stay elsewhere. Like, not at an RV park, maybe. It's very clean and well-maintained. The restrooms are astonishingly well-maintained. No filthy cobwebs, no mysterious liquids on the floors, no old graffiti. They keep the tent sites in pristine condition, too. This place is well-loved. There are dish washing stations scattered about, plus the usual table and fire pit one would expect to see. It's far enough from civilization that it's quiet, but a short drive to Stevenson. Though neighboring campers are packed in pretty close, it still feels private because of the density of the trees. We did not have any dogs with us, but they are pet friendly, and there is a nice playground for kids, as well. As added services, they do allow you to use their trailer to pull your gear in, as most sites are a short walk in from the main drive loop, and will bring you firewood or any necessities if you give them a call. Firewood was more expensive here than at other places, and admittedly was not seasoned well, but that's true for most campgrounds. Aside from extra embers flying around, we had no trouble lighting our fire. I suggest bringing in your own (local!) wood for the best experience. read more

Owners are very friendly and take great interest in your stay. Great off the beaten track facility and nice varied sites. The best, will return. read more

This is a private campground that feels like a state park in that it is wooded and rustic with some full hook-up spots for RVs, some water and electric spots, and some tenting spots. I have to say that many of the RV and tenting spots were secluded and relatively private. Some RV spots-those for the large motor homes, are more out in the open. All spots seemed level and clean. We didn't use any facilities. There is a playground for the kids. The owners and managers here, Kyle and Marisa, keep this place spotless. It's a rare thing that the owners are actually managing on an active day to day basis as these two are. I think more parks would be better run if that were the case. They obviously take pride in their business. The surrounding area is full of fun places to go, explore, and most of all, eat. We highly recommend this campground and would definitely return. read more

This is our favorite campsite in the gorge. Great location close to all of the major activities in the gorge. Wonderful campground with some very private campsites, well maintained, and the owners are extremely friendly. We were here three times this year and booked our trips for next year. Cannot wait to come back! read more

BEST RV park/campground!! Clean, peaceful and the owners were so Wonderful!! 16 days on the road this was our #1 pick!! We have told dozens of people about this little gem!!! Stay here you will love it too!!!! read more

This is a very nice campground. We decided to stay here on our way to a show at the gorge, after reading the Yelp reviews. The bathrooms were immaculate. Just remember to bring quarters for the shower. A quarter gives you a minute and a half I plugged in a dollar and it was plenty of time. The only thing that was a little annoying was having to pack all our stuff up and down the little hill to our parking area. Overall lovely place we enjoyed our stay. read more

Stopped in for a night, the owners are super nice and helpful. They even let us barrow a book on some of the local hiking trails! The bathrooms are very clean, you do have to pay for showers. Camp spots have a shared dishwashing station and drinking water. The tent camping spots are clean, but small. Even though the spots are small, there are a lot of trees to separate each spot. The campground is small, but very nicely maintained. read more

We booked a tent site and loved the secluded and private site we got in the woods. We had lots of privacy as the sites are very well spaced out and lots of trees. The only thing to note is that there is a short walk from your parking spot to your campground for certain sites - so be prepared to make a couple trips. Cleanest camp bathroom I have ever seen. The place was spotless, with flush toilets. Very quiet at night. Could not hear my neighbours, cars or trains. Great service from the camp owners. I would definitely camp here again! read more

We LOVE the proximity to everything in the Gorge from this wonderfully hidden campground ! It is especially close to our favorite salmon fishing, which is on the Wind River. No doubt the nicest tent spots we've seen & very nice, private & large RV spaces. Everything is SO great, SO quiet & super clean / with NO railroad noise! Yay --- heavenly sleep to be had! Lovely owners, too: Leroy & now, the lovely new owners Kyle & Marissa! Timberlake is a fabulous spot to camp in the Gorge! read more

Beautifully private campsites with electric and water. If you need sewer, the sites are unshaded and more like a parking lot. We stayed one week and loved the peaceful and beautiful grounds. It's sedate. The new owners, Kyle and his wife (apologies for not catching her name) are a delight. I'm quick to criticize places that accommodate RVs, which are often the strip of grass with cement pad. Not here. Enjoy the crickets and shaded beauty. We would absolutely stay again if we are camping near Hood River. read more

This is a campground, not a glampground. The grounds are pretty, RV spots are flat and tent sites have fresh wood clippings to put the tents on. The bathrooms are clean, showers are clean, but come prepared with quarters because it's a quarter for a minute or minute and a half. There is a great space for running your dog and a play structure for kids. If I were planning on fishing this would be the place I would want to stay. We felt like this campground was overpriced for what you get. I can go to other campgrounds and pay the same rate and get a lot more. You don't always need more, but if I'm being charged $46 a night there should be something, wifi, walking trails, something. Also be aware when you leave on Sunday if there is a line at the dump station you could be waiting a while. read more

Great park! Quite, away from the traffic and in the forest. And they have the best water: spring fed and tastes wonderful. Stayed here during the smoke and fire. They stayed open and kept everyone informed. Great folks and a great park. We'll be back next year read more
