Bend Sunriver Thousand Trails

We have stayed here a few times. The first (and longest) stay was in the summer of 2017 in our 36' Class A motorhome, just before the Total Solar Eclipse. Subsequent stays have been less than a week each, with our most recent stay (in our 40' motorhome) being September 2019. We saw plenty of large fifth wheels and motorhomes, so we could say this campground is big rig friendly, but not ALL campsites. We really like this area and campground. Internal gravel roads with over 300 RV sites – quite large and fairly well maintained. After our most recent visit, it had been raining and there were quite a few water-filled potholes. Privacy and shading is good with trees between the sites. All sites for regular RV visitors are water and mostly 30amp electric only. There are NO sewer sites! But they do have two dump stations and a Honey Wagon service (which we didn't use) cost $50 per pump out. They also have cottages, cabins, yurts and a tent area. There are five shower/restroom buildings and a laundry. The Old Western “Town Square” includes a Welcome Center, General Store, book exchange, propane filling station, movie rentals, and a meeting room. There is a pool complex with a baby pool, two larger pools, and a hot tub. Nearby Sunriver is a resort/vacation community filled with amenities like grocery stores, fuel, restaurants, breweries, and many many tourist activities. We loved biking around Sunriver on their extensive bike trail system. Downtown Bend has live music, vendors and food trucks in Drake Park in the summer. There are many great restaurants and is well-known for its breweries as well as the Old Mill District with a great shopping precinct. It's a great area hiking, biking, kayaking, rafting, and paddleboarding. We drove part of the Cascade Scenic Byway and kayaked on the Deschutes River. Cell service was good with 3 bars each on Verizon and T-Mobile. NO mail or parcels are accepted here - you will need to have your mail forwarded to General Delivery, Bend, Oregon, 97701-9999. Note: the local Sunriver USPS will NOT accept General Delivery. As members of Thousand Trails, we did not pay a nightly fee to stay at this campground. It is all part of our TT camping membership that we have had since 2014. You can learn more about how we are able to camp 'for free" in our many articles about TT – and get a more detailed review and photos of this campground – at our RVLove website.

Right off Blue Diamond exit a nice RV park with concrete sites and paved roads. pool area sells it for our family with one for the kids and one for us. Amazingly there is little road noise from the interstate even though it is a stones throw, with a good arm, away. Better than Circus Circus for being close to the strip.
