Nestled on the banks of the Washougal River in the heart of the historic Camas/Washougal area, The 'Shoug RV and camping area provides close access to everything these two quaint cities offer, while giving you 2+ acres of private wooded and riverfront space with excellent steelhead and seasonal salmon fishing. Located right off the 3rd Ave thoroughfare, there is a municipal skate park across the parking area, as well as an adjacent public boat ramp.
Ask about inner tube rentals and river shuttle services, long hikes or short strolls, outdoor adventures, or any other local recommendations. We are excited to introduce you to the amazing opportunities in this neck of the woods.
Rescued from overgrowth and misuse by 3 local neighboring families/friends just down the road, this historic site (Willie Nelson started his career on these same grounds) is a work in progress, as we develop trails and greenspace with accommodations to make your camping experience more enjoyable. We would love your feedback and ideas for future improvement!
Things to be aware of: the area is slowly being reclaimed from blackberry overgrowth. There are thorns associated. Traffic is steady along 3rd Ave, and the skate park and boat launch have regular visitors. The river is shallow on the property side, but there is a channel on the far side, slow moving during summer but can increase during the other seasons, depending on precipitation. There is a Porta potty and trash can near the skate park, but currently none on site. Small fires are allowed as long as there is no city ban at the time. Please do not cut down any trees for firewood, but feel free to use any sticks that are on the ground.
