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 Wednesday. 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.

Camping Gear Rentals: Want to camp, but don't want to haul down the gear? For $65 per night, or $210 for all four nights we can rent you a nice 2 person water tight tent, a fresh clean sleeping bag and a comfortable 3" loft sleeping mat. We'll even have your gear set up for you when you arrive. Get registered for the rally then call 206-329-7808 to reserve your camping gear. Gear availability is limited so make your reservation soon!

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 Camping

RV camping spots are available on the fairgrounds for an additional advance flat rate of $40 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 $50 per spot on arrival.
