Tucker Park Campground

I decided last minute to go camping. Searching I found this place not far from the city . It’s so unexpected. It was a great decision!! Hear the river, which I love. Clean bathrooms, water and even showers available!!

It’s a perfect getaway!!! 10 out of 5!!!!

Not to far out of town some of the spaces were quite small with no parking off the rd. The showers were easily accessible but a little pricey considering the high space rent.

Busy campgrounds, but nice. Variety of sites from small and shaded to open and sunny. Both day use and river access from the camping area were lovely and the water was perfect to cool off after a hot day.

Hosts were helpful. Bathrooms and showers were clean.

We arrived in the late afternoon in a search for a campground with space available for our rental RV C-25. We were met by the staff, who were very helpfull and friendly. They drove us around to show the available sites, inspite of the fact they were very busy. Enthusiastic and customerfriendly ! We could pay at the entrance later on at a machine.

Great place for us to camp for a few nites in our van. 25.00/night, quiet site on the river, flush toilets, showers (75 cents 3 min). Fire pits. Level sites! Helpful hosts .

Very quiet, nice river nearby, friendly camp host, and great facilities! I've stayed at a "glamping" campground that had the same shower/bathroom facilities as this one.  I'd happily stay here again.

This was our backup campground for the night and was fantastic. Each site has plenty of room and a good layout. Plus, it had great amenities for just the price of $25 a night.

Lovely little camp ground with some fantastic spots along the river. Excellent faculties with easy access to amenities. Sat by a campfire pit in the evenings and went to sleep with the sound of the river surrounding us. What more could you ask for.

Nice, easy camping - a hidden gem. The hosts are probably the nicest I have ever come across.

We were looking to escape the rain in Portland and try out some new gear. Lots of spots available with plenty clean bathrooms nearby. Hosts were friendly and promptly checked in with us when we arrived. We picked a spot on the river and it offered nice ambiance.

Well run facility but a little rustic. Showers ($1.00 for four minutes) were spacious with a chair and plenty of clothes hooks. Floors like all camp showers are wet from showering and one needs to have the right foot ware and towels to put on dry, clean clothes. Bathrooms are clean and spacious but show their age. Camp sites are close, but everyone is busy with all the local outdoor activities to stay in camp and make noise.

There is roughly 90 camping spots, first come first serve. No reservations. We arrived late in the evening (8:30 pm) and there were ~5 spots remaining. The camp host was very helpful and it was easy to check in.

Loved falling asleep to the sound of the river.

All other campers were courteous and quiet. Bathrooms had warm water and were very clean

This place was great to work and hangout by hood river. Good reception and nice camp ground.

We arrived on the 1st week of September. The park was easy to find, peaceful and well maintained. Lots of places to camp some with river views. Facilities were clean and well maintained. We met the camp host briefly who was very nice and also busy landscaping the grounds. Would definitely stay here again.

Really nice camp with a friendly host. You can check the website to see how full it is as it’s first-come-first-served.

All of the river front sites are $35 but if you have a van / RV be aware that those sites are really tent-only.

We stayed in spot 12 which had direct access to the river via a steep-ish scramble. As others mentioned, you can hear the river throughout the camp which made for a peaceful night’s sleep.

Super quiet, could hear the river from anywhere. Bathroom and showers are clean, and there is lots of river sites. Checkout is at noon, despite your ticket! Host came around and told us not to rush out. Host was also very kind, 10/10 would recommend staying here! Wish we could have stayed longer!

The area is great. Being from Northern California, the weather here was amazing. Having bathrooms and showers was a nice feature. Some of the sites are really good and some are a little rough, but overall the campground is a cool place and really relaxing.

Both the falls and Mt Hood are easy drives from this camp, as are several other things to do in the area, including nearby town of Hood River. While at the camp itself, you can enjoy the river itself.

Variety of camp sizes are offered. Mid week in October at 2/00 we had so many to pick from, it was almost hard to choose. We ended up at 77 on the lower loop. It was roomy and flat.

By sunset, several others rolled into camp filling it up more than o expected, but still less than half full. If it was full, it would have lost a good bit of charm because a lot of spaces are right on top of each other.

The bathrooms and showers were in fair shape but could use some maintenance.

Both AT&T and Verizon had good service throughout the camp.

Love camping here, in a tent and now our travel trailer. The river is a short walk from most sites and we have even caught a few trout! Also super close to wineries and orchards all along the fruit loop as well as downtown hood river. One of our favorites for sure!

Beautiful area!

Definently the go to spot when camping for Hood River.  Good layout for campsites with plenty of privacy.

Camp host is super friendly Get there early and snag a spot down by the river.

Stayed here a couple times, and I’m sure I’ll be back again. We‘ve snagged “Oak” campsite both times we stayed here, and I can’t imagine a better spot. Super private, sits 10 feet below the campground road so you feel hidden. It’s also huge, and it has its own little trail that leads you down to the river. Sites have picnic tables and fire rings with a built-in cooking/grill spot. I’m not an RVer, but I saw there were water/utility hookups available, as well as garbage dumps. Highly recommended campground for people in the Hood River area.

We had a blast! So green and beautiful. Not far from downtown. Lots of space/areas for our kids to run to climb big rocks. We will 100% be back.

This was my inaugural trip with my Roof Top Tent from Tepui.

A quick trip around the camp site and my son and I picked out spot 72 and after paying for the spot it only took a few tries to get the tent level.

Our neighbors were friendly and the white noise from the water helped hide the proximity of our fellow campers.

One of the locals stopped by to comment on my tent and said the salmon were biting - he even gave me a lure (Where am I and who are these friendly folks!?) that he caught a fish on earlier that day. My kid loved that.

He also warned of the chipmunks on the other end of the camp and how persistent they can be if you leave food anywhere they can get to.

The spot we stayed at would have been sweet for ground camping as well. Will be coming here again.

Oh, and the cell reception (AT&T) was good enough to tether and get some work done.

We were so glad we found this campsite, it looks really nice, located by the nice Trucker river, there are sites right next to the river too.

For the price you get showers, drinking water, normal toilets and a clean environment. You can pay with card too using their vending machine which was also super convenient.

Overall one of the best camps we stayed in yet

Stumbled upon this place a few summers ago and have returned many times since. This is a perfect spot to post up for a few days with a book. It’s very quiet and the hosts are great! Super friendly and never any issues getting fire wood. Family/four-legged friendly.

Pretty big campground with 80+ sites. I usually try and snag oak site b/c it’s big and really private. Neighboring sites are also wonderful.

It’s first come first serve so I would get there early, especially in the heat of the summer. Open May-November I believe. Bring cash for payment.

Picnic tables, big fire pits with a little spot to cook if you don’t have a stove. RV hookups, water, garbage dump. Should have everything you need.

It’s close to Lost Lake if you’re looking for a day trip. Less than 20 minutes to downtown Hood River. About an hour or so from Portland.

If you like beer, check out Pfriem on your way out.

We spent two nights at one of the river sites with easy access to the river. The campsite was scattered with smooth rocks perfect for tanning and nice sandy beaches along the river for your fur companions to cool off. The only reason we’re not giving this a five star is because of the lack of tent space and privacy between campsites.

P.s make sure to get there early, river sites go quick!

We stayed for 2 nights. The grounds are well maintained complete with flush toilets, potable water and showers. The sites range from tiny to fairly large. The system is somewhat confusing. There’s a pretty strict sign that clearly states you must use th machine to pay for a site where you enter individual campsite numbers to see what’s available 1 through 78 prior to entering the park. Pro tip: don’t do that. Drive around first, and unlike conventional wisdom would suggest an expired tag does not guarantee the site is available. The camp host tells campers as long as they leave any gear the site is theirs. So, find a spot with no tag or gear then go back to the machine and enter those site numbers until you find one that’s available. We’d go back, it’s just a little confusing to get the right spot. Super great swimming hole!
