Accommodations
There are a number of ways to spend your hours sleeping in the Gorge.
One important thing to remember is that almost anywhere you sleep at
night in the area you are bound to hear trains since they run along both
sides of the Columbia River throughout the region. Many rally attendees
solve the train issue simply by using a pair of earplugs, ingesting a
Tylenol PM or simply saying – “I love trains – it’s no big deal.”
Onsite Camping
Camping is available free of charge to all participants on the
fairgrounds beginning Sunday. The west side of the camping area features
electrical outlets so if you’d like to recharge your camera battery or
laptop, run a sleep apnea machine or otherwise, pack an extension cord
and you’ll be all set. To insure you get a good spot arrive early.
Group Camping
A number of enthusiasts groups use this rally as their annual
gathering. If you’d like us to accommodate your group together in one
area of the tent camping or RV section please contact us via email.
RV's & Toy Haulers
RV camping spots are available on the fairgrounds for an additional
advance flat rate of $20 per vehicle for the entire rally regardless of
how many days you’re there (no pro-rated rates). All sites include
electrical hookups and 15 include water. A dump station is located
nearby. Arrive early for the best spots. Those who have not booked their
spots in advance will be charged $25 per spot on arrival.
Motels
Hotels & Spas
You can motel it nearby just a few blocks from the fairground in
Stevenson at the Econolodge. If they are sold out you can motel it just
across the water in Cascade Locks at the Best Western Columbia River Inn
or the Bridge of the Gods Motel. If things fill up at the Econo Lodge,
there’s the Columbia River Inn across the river in Cascade Locks. Time
to pamper yourself? There are several resort hotels in the area
including the Skamania Lodge, Bonneville Hot Springs and the Carson
Mineral Hot Springs Resort.
