Cascade Locks - joint camping

Columbia River Mile 149, South River Bank

The Cascade Locks Port area is pretty neat, with lots of grass, a place to walk to for viewing the old locks used to bypass the rapids before Bonneville Dam was built, a museum, and a docking and embarking point for taking tours on the local Paddlewheeler.

We might want to do joint RV/tent/boat camping at the Cascade Locks Marine Park. The facilities there are nice, and it is a pretty spot. They have some new campground facilities that over-look the old locks and are only a short walk from the marina. A person Brian talked to said it usually is not full during the week, and the transient marina moorage is never full.

For camping questions email Carol, who is the host, camphost@clbb.net.

The marina and camping area are a short walk apart.
