Cedar Grove Riverside Tent Camp

My kid’s first time camping

My family camped in tent on Paul’s property for 2 nights and we really enjoyed our stay! The place is a gem! We love the area by the river where you can just sit and enjoy nature. We really liked the shower house! I found it thoughtful that Paul has a potty seats for toddlers in the restroom! My husband and I love the kid’s play area. Our kid calls it “the park” and said “I really like the park but I’m sad there’s no slide.” Lol kids are kids. Paul gave a huge amount of thoughtfulness into setting up the camp! It was my first camping here in the US and my kid’s first ever camping and we really had so much fun! I am already convincing my sister who lives in Oregon to come back here with us next time!

Iron Horse Forest River Cabin

Our family of 5 stayed in the cabin quite comfortably. Two kids up in the loft, mom and dad in the bunks and one kid stayed in the bunk with mom- plenty of room in the bed for an adult and a kid. The beds were comfortable and the site was BEAUTIFUL! The river access is definitely easier from the tent site, but the view from the cabin is stunning and so relaxing drinking coffee in the new chair swing. Paul has put thought into everything from the staging of the campsite to the bear proof bins for food to the wagon for hauling water and supplies and more! We took full advantage of the river and swimming in the swimming hole. The shower house is SO nice! This was our last stop on a long camping trip so the shower house felt so fancy and appreciated! Far better than anything we had encountered since we left home. This is just the best little place!

Cedar Grove RV/TRL Park/Campsite

What a beautiful serene spot! Paul made everything so easy from directions on getting there to the amenities at the property to what to do in the area! We have a 17 foot Casita travel trailer that fit perfectly! There’s a lovely shelter and picnic table for cooking and eating. We took advantage of a very clean shower cabin also. The river is so pleasant for sitting by and reading or just contemplating nature. We highly recommend a stop here.
