Great stop over for west bound traffic. No access to Columbia River. Tent sites have the best sites....on the water. No pull thru sites (that was not a problem for us). Be sure you have what you need, closest mini mart is in Mosier but then to get back to the park, you have to go south to exit 76 and go back north. Cash or check only. Lots of trees, paved sites, clean bath house, solar heated water, lots of wild blackberries . We would stay here again. 4 stars instead of 5 because tent sites have the best location.

This is a pull out on the west bound side leaving Cody.

Just do it! It's not far from the highway, plenty of room for RVs or trailers to park and turn around to get back to the highway
This might be your last chance! Just like the restaurant that sits on the same corner, the Gemini Giant will one day be just a forgotten icon. I stood between his legs...the photo was a big hit on FB!

Haha! Stop by and get a photo with the giant. Plenty of room for RVs and trailers to park. We stopped by on a drizzly, wet morning and couldn't believe how many people were getting out in the rain for a photo op with the green giant! Go for it!

I think this must be a place to visit only when there is a scheduled event. We tried to stop by but there was nothing to indicate visitors are welcome or tours are available. We saw some parked RVs but couldn't determine if they were camping or being stored.

Horrible! We registered, went to our assigned site, found the site was on an open field with no trees and rusty hook ups....and found plenty of dog crap on the site. We thought we would just watch out for that but then went to the bathhouse...gross is an understatement. Although their website advertises full hookup and our reservation was for full hookup; we were told they do not have sewer hook up.
The dump station had an overwhelming stench.
Dumpsters were overflowing.
Just a disgusting place.
There's more but just too much to write out, we requested a refund and left immediately.

The owners were extremely friendly and hospitable but, to reach the camp there is two miles of gravel road - we didn't know that and would not have gone there had we known about the road. We have a couple of new dents in our trailer.
Most GPSs will take you to an old cemetery, we went further on that gravel road than we needed to. The owner says it happens all the time, we wish she would have mentioned it when we called for a reservation (which they don't take except for holidays). TIP: watch for the red canoe, left at the following driveway!
There is no WIFI.
The bathhouse is old, beyond old. Reasonably clean but old, patchwork repair, old.
We weren't there long enough to check out any of the other amenities offered by the camp.

A great campground not far from I90, plenty of pull thru sites with full hookup, rec room with ping pong, arcade games, pool table, playground for the kids (swings large enough for adults), clean restrooms & showers, small store with essentials. The folks in the office were extremely helpful and friendly. I would highly recommend this camp and would be happy to return if ever in this area again.
I gave a 4 star instead of 5 strictly due to no WIFI..I would have rated 4.5 but TA doesn't offer that option. The only network my devices could find was a pre-pay network (no streaming) which wouldn't allow me to register. I would have paid but couldn't. My Sprint cell service was nil, even with data roaming. Other than no WIFI, this is five star
