Crescent Bar RV Resort Thousand Trails

Crescent Bar is a nice area, with lots of new construction, easy access to a boat launch and public beach. This campground is a popular Thousand Trails campground with a nice hot tub and pool and, access to the public beach area. Sites are not reservable, without shade, narrow and dusty with almost no grass in the sites. We did not use the rest rooms or clubhouse.

I wrote this once and lost it, so here’s the short and sweet version. Nice park, level sites, gravel sites and roads. Good food nearby. Nice pool, tennis courts and rec room. Big patio with tables and gazebo overlooking the Columbia River. Amazing views, walking path down to the river. Paved path to walk along the river. Downsides…ALL the sites with a fantastic view of the river are taken by annuals, with the exception of a few nice big tent sites. Getting packages is weird and doesn’t work well for full time RVers. They will refuse packages that aren’t meds or that look like The site we were in had the only access road for the area, which is a recreation area and big resort. It was a bit noisy. RV parts. Not a downer, but the road coming down to the park is windy and probably a 5% grade with some serious drop offs. It’s a good paved road though. 60 mbs down and 27 up and 3 bars cellular AT&T.

I stayed here twice in the summer of 2021. 21 and 10 days. Location is on/near the Columbia River. 50 amp sites are not in all spots but they did recently upgrade a number along the rear of the park near the road.
I am glad I had 50A service when I stayed. It was over a 100 for almost a week one stay. The rest of the time was in the 90's. If you look at the weather for Quincy, WA make sure to add 5F because of the difference in elevation. Staff were very nice. I did notice them holding people from entering until noon so be aware of that. The path along the river is my favorite thing about this CG. I walked and road it on a bicycle almost every day. There are a number of beaches along the path. It does get super busy on the weekends around the area. It is a weekend vacation spot for many people. The views can be nice on the river.
The sites are gravel and some were unlevel for a CG. Both times I was there my MH front axle was off the ground. FHUs on all the sites that I could see. The bathhouses seemed clean whenever I used them.
Be aware of the military jets that can fly along the river at less than 1000 feet. It is not every day but the first time you hear them it is a little unnerving.
ATT data service was very good and I used it both times I stayed. Streamed HD to my heart's content. Verizon was not good. The tower is up the hill behind the ridge so don't expect to do any streaming with big red. You might get some email sporadically but surfing the web is probably not going to work much either. I also have antennas on my roof and that could not even help with Verizon. The road in can be steep and a couple hairpin 25 mph turns but nothing to be concerned with. This was my experience both times I was there.
Generally it was quiet. On the weekends I did notice late night noise on the street outside the CG. That is why I only gave 3 stars on noise. Kids partying late into the night and walking back. This is golf cart craziness. Honking, zooming by on the street, etc. They are allowed on the roads and they do make use of that. Boat ramp is down the way and there are also a couple of parks and a golf course. All very busy on the weekends.
There is a pizza place and an ice cream place along with a general store for items in immediate need.
They try and water the grass Sun-Thur. I am not sure why. It is generally just dirt.

This is the best Thousand Trails we’ve stayed in mostly due to the view, full hookups and friendly staff. Only reason I rated it a 4. We are a 44 ft motorhome and could drive thru this small campground easily. Most lots are large enough for us but like most TT the condition of the park is poor. Faculties outdated and lots are dusty dirt, not much grass. Tennis court and pool are old and in poor condition. Half the lots have 50 amp. Wish they had a dog park but land is at a premium in this area. Verizon was average and you can get satellite. I don’t know why TT won’t upgrade their parks. This membership is not worth it!

We are caravanning with another RV and have stayed at every Thousand Trails campground in California, Oregon and Washington this Summer and Crescent Bar is by far the most beautiful.
Huge pluses are the washers and dryers that can be operated using a free app you download on your phone, so no need to use your credit card or quarters! The app even tells you how many minutes are left on each machine you are using!! The pool is small but plenty big for everyone since there are no kids! The hot tub is very large and works perfectly and again no kids which is awesome! Cell service is great for streaming on ATT, Verizon and T-Mobile.
Since children under 14 have to be accompanied by an adult the park is overall much quieter since there aren’t kids running all over the place screaming like most other parks. There are 2 golf courses within walking distance and an amazing paved walking/biking trail that runs for 2.5 miles along the Columbia River which is right next to the campground.

Easy access 5 minutes from Quincy Washington. The hosts were helpful and friendly. The roads are graveled, so the dust is much less.than some other Thousand Trails campgrounds. The wind can blow very hard here! I'm told they have wifi for $4.00 a day here in the club house. Seems kinda steep. We have Tmobile hotspot. Two bars, but with the weboost it was great internet. There was several unoccupied leased camp spots and tent spots at the view side of the park.. That leaves few view spots left for members. Don't count on a view site. odds are slim to none that you will get one. Many sites are level and the grass is mowed with a table. The park is clean. We may come here again, but they need to free up more view sites for members. We were here during the week. Nine out of seventeen prime view sites were unoccupied for tents and leased sites.

Golf course in walking distance, nice parks, river trail for biking and walking, easy access for paddle boarding, kayaking or marina for water skiing/fishing boats. Clean pool and great hot tub. Wineries and fruit/vegie stands nearby. Dog friendly. Wonderful, knowledgeable staff. We had a river view and easy access to the trails. Would definitely return.

We had stayed at this campground in September of 2017 and thought it was nice, but it was smokey to the point that we could barely see the far shore of the river. When we arrived, it was again very smokey, but the ranger indicated that it had just gotten that way and may clear out, and by the second morning, it was beautiful, and stayed that way until our last day.
The sites are adequate, little separation from neighboring sites. Where we were located, in 50A across from the tents-only sites next to the river, is great for motorhomes - with our big front window giving us a picture-window view of the river.
The laundry is small, just 4 washers and 4 dryers, but was not heavily used. I think that the laundry facilities may be new.
Quincy is a nice town and Wenatchee is not too far away. Lots of crops grown in the area.
