A nice place and nice staff, but we likely won't be back. Rates are very high and with wa taxes, they are unreasonable. Add that to wa gas costs, we will go elsewhere.

Beautiful RV park right on the Columbia River. Can watch the massive ships cruise down the river. Take in some amazing sunsets. Camp host very pleasant and helpful, same for front office staff. Campsite was roomy and clean. Plan to book another trip soon!
Vista Park opened in 1981 on a 75-acre site along SR4, and the Columbia River, in Southwest Washington, located in the historic community of Skamokawa. Each year it draws locals and tourists alike for camping, picnicking, easy beach access, hiking, inspiring river views, ship spotting, kayaking and recreational activities.
Skamokawa has both a long history and prehistory. The name Skamokawa means “smoke on the water,” so called after the fog which drifts down the three valleys opening onto the town and the Columbia River. Skamokawa was also the name of the last chief of the Wahkiakum Indians whose home was located in the area.
