Portland Area RV Parks

HI Forum, we have to pick my parents up at the Portland International Airport, and need to spend the night nearby the night before. I was hoping to get some insight/recommendations on the best place to stay. Thanks!

Vince and Laura

Are you looking to be right by the airport or willing to drive a bit? If the latter, what way are you heading toward your final destination?

Mt. Hood Village RV resort is not close, but an easy drive to the airport.

We don't mind driving a bit. They are arriving in the afternoon, so we want to be all settled in before we pick them up. They are spending the night at a hotel at the airport, and we will be staying in an rv park. The next morning, we'll drive to their hotel, pick them up, and drive them to Clarkston where they are going to go on a river cruise from Clarkston back to Portland.

That looks really nice, but a bit more of a drive than we want to do before our 5-6 hour drive ahead of us that day.

Columbia River RV resort in Woodland Washington. About 30 minutes to the airport. Try and get the place on the water with its own front yard.

I don't have any experience with the private parks. Nevertheless Fairgiew RV is very close. I would consider Champoeg State Park, but it is still a 45 min drive to PDX. Albeit an easy one. If you were to stay there you could have your folks stay at a hotel right near the I5 & 205 interchange.

There is also the Oxbow Refional Park ran by Metro (a regional government)

I would shy off of Ainsworth State Park. Here is a lot of shady things that happen there.

You could park the Airstream and all stay at Edgefield enjoying a night of music, drinks, movies.

You might look at Horning's Hideout in North Plains, Oregon. It's about 35 miles west of the airport. My husband tent camped there for a week last September (golf tournament), and said the campground was fantastic. They do have RV hookups.

*Looks like they're closed for a festival July 11-21st.

Columbia River RV Park in Portland, OR is the nearest urban RV park to PDX. You can't get any closer.

Rolling Hills RV Park in Fairview (north of Gresham, immediately east of Portland). It's a hop, skip and a jump down Sandy Blvd to Airport Rd and on to the airport.

Try getting a site on the east side of the park.

BTW - Sewage treatment plant is next door to the west. As long as the east wind is blowing out of the Columbia Gorge, you won't have any smell. But once that wind stops.....P-U!!

Portland Fairview RV Park

We live approx 15-20min from Portland International Airport. We also live approx 5min for Portland Fairview RV Park on Sandy Blvd.

If I were you, that is where I would stay.

Good Luck.

If you are coming in from the south pheasant run rv park is really nice. Located in Wilsonville just south of Portland and easy drive to PDX.

We are currently at Pheasant Ridge for a week over 4th July, and Cirrus Flyer is right - it is nice.

Looks very nice and is highly rated.

Also convenient for taking I-205 north to the airport, and bypassing all of downtown Portland (on both sides of the river).

We stayed at Portland Fairview RV Park. It's possible to get shuttle pickup to PDX from there. Very nice park. Easy & Clean. http://www.rvonthego.com/oregon/port...rview-rv-park/

Every year on an annual trip from Sacramento to Port Townsend, WA I stop on the way at Portland-Woodburn RV Park. It is just a bit south of Portland, is clean and quiet, and has reasonable rates. I discovered it several years ago and enjoyed it enough to make it a annual thing.
