Ponderosa Campground (http://www.codyponderosa.com) was a great place to stay. It’s conveniently located near downtown Cody, but was quiet, too. There’s tons of great things to do near the park, including Yellowstone National Park, Buffalo Bill State Park, the Buffalo Bill Dam, Buffalo Bill Museum, hiking, rafting, fishing, and hunting.

This summer we stayed at Fond-Du-Lac KOA, in one of the open sites (no trees) nearer to the entrance, across the creek from the office.
We liked the open space (for young kids), and large sites. The pool was nice, medium sized. The jumping pillow was awesome, the one here was huge. I loved it, the teens and my 3 year old did, too. It was more attractive to the kids than the pool. No bug problems either.

This is a beautiful park south of Eugene, Oregon. Lots of trees, good shade, and great landscaping that is well maintained. There are currently 75 RV slots, which can accommodate big rigs. Spaces 1-11, and Spaces 65-75 are near the highway. Although the trees hide the road from view, there is still some road noise if you are in those slots.

Fern Ridge Shores RV Park is a small campground located on a lake in Veneta. They have a swimming area, but I wouldn’t swim in it… the water looked too dirty. The manager was a little difficult to deal with. I arrived around noon and I had a reservation. When I checked in, the manager made a big issue about only being able to accept "local" credit cards. I finally offered my VISA (which was NOT "local") and the manager indicated they could take that.


Heceta Beach RV Park – Coast Ranges, OR

If you want to be close to the beach and that’s the most important thing, then Heceta Beach RV Park is a good place. You don’t have a beach view, but it’s just a short walk to the beach. The park is somewhat cramped and cumbersome to maneuver through, but I have been in worse.

When you enter the park, the "Check in line" is a VERY sharp hard left turn. (There is a second entrance that is easier, if you know about it ahead of time.) On the other hand, the RV spaces are long, and can accommodate big rigs.
