Overview & Suitability
RV Park At The Bridge is a specialized, privately-managed recreational vehicle park located in Chinook, Washington, situated just half a mile west of the Astoria-Megler Bridge. The facility is primarily designed to accommodate RVs, offering full-hookup sites that cater to travelers exploring the Pacific Coast. While primarily an RV destination, the park also features a limited number of tent sites positioned in a forested area toward the back of the property.
Access, Dimensions & Clearance
Located directly off US-101, the park is designed for easy RV access, with pull-through sites available to accommodate larger vehicles (up to approximately 50 feet in length). Guests are advised to look for the large, prominent 'RV PARK' sign near the palm trees to avoid entering adjacent private driveways. While the site is highly accessible, guests should be aware of constant traffic noise due to its proximity to the highway.
Parking Rates, Tariffs & Booking
Pricing typically ranges from $45 to $70 per night, depending on the season and specific site selection. Weekly and monthly extended stay rates are also available for long-term travelers. Reservations are highly recommended and can be made through their official website or by contacting the management office directly. The park accepts various payment methods, including credit cards (subject to a processing fee), checks, and cash.

- Full RV hookups and pull-through sites
- On-site laundry facilities
- Clean restrooms and showers
