There is a river you can float down right next to the campground but other than that there’s not a lot to do near the campground. However, there is loads to do within 30 minutes making Tumalo a great home base. Cost of Site with Full HookUps: $33 Number of Sites: 77 Max RV Length: 50 feet Free Hot Showers: Yes.

Nestled in the heart of sunny central Oregon, Tumalo rests along Oregon's spectacular Deschutes River. The campground is simultaneously close enough to the town of Bend to make an quick jaunt to the grocery store, but far enough away to escape the commotion. Its location makes it an ideal stepping stone for any type of outdoor activity you could possibly dream of: lush green golf courses, clear blue-ribbon trout steams, pristine alpine lakes, miles upon miles of challenging yet scenic hiking and mountain bike trails, and of course the Cascade Mountains are all within easy reach.

Winter recreation is just up the road at Mt. Bachelor where skiers and snowboarders can experience some of the best powder in the state. If you are not fond of the lifts, there are miles of groomed Nordic trails and tons of snowy back-country areas to explore.

At dawn or dusk try casting for rainbow trout as they sip at mayflies and caddisflies. Grab your raft and float with your feet dangling into the cool water during the heat of the summer. Take a hike and explore one of the river trails as they gently wind through canyons created by the untamed river. Watch deer forage for food just as the sun creeps below the rim of the canyon. Listen as coyotes perform their haunting call, announcing the sunset and the coming darkness. Smell the sweet fragrance of sage and juniper as the dew drips off its branches. Sit quietly in the evening and let the stars put on a show of their own. All of this plus a quiet, quaint campground where your family can stay in a yurt, or camp in your own tent or RV.

Details

We stayed for one night at the Crown Villa RV Resort in mid August, 2019. Our original booking was for a longer time, but we postponed and shortened our stay due to delays in scheduled RV repairs. Resort staff were friendly and accommodating when we changed our reservations and at check-in.

This resort is one of the nicest parks in the Bend area, is conveniently located near to many area attractions, but is also very pricey. The resort is popular and can fill up during peak season, so early reservations are recommended.

*** Caution *** Do not trust your GPS when routing to this park. For high profile rigs, caution must be exercised to avoid a low clearance (12′ 8″) railroad overpass south of the park on Brosterhous Road! Check the campground website for up-to-date detailed directions.

Cost

The resort categorizes RV sites into Tiers – Copper, Bronze, Gold, Platinum, and Pull-Thru – based on site size/quality/amenities. Fees scale accordingly with Tier. For one night at a Bronze Tier 50 amp full hookup gravel back-in site, we paid $76.30. There were no additional fees for pets or an extra vehicle.
