L.L. Stub Stewart State Park

This has to be one of the nicest Oregon State Parks (or any State Park) that we have ever seen... We just happened to need only an overnighter but we would have loved to stay longer.

It's a very big Campground, with many loops to choose from. Not a bad site...You better have reservations in the busy time of the year. Its inland a few miles so it's off the drippy, wet coast. Which we liked.

Campfires were allowed again as they've had a couple of good rains in these parts. The only bummer was, all the showers were closed due to covid. Highly recommended!

L.L. Stub Stewart SP is a gem. Large, level sites in the East Loop are very well maintained. We arrived after registration office hours but found our reserved site with no problem. Site 88 provided us with 50 amps of clean power and full hookups. AT&T and Verizon strength was moderate, but fully supported streaming video. The park is just off Oregon 47 and there was a little highway noise noticeable in the morning - but not in the least obnoxious. We will seek out chances to stay here in the future.

Another Oregon State Park that is beautiful, very clean and exceptionally well maintained. A big shout out to the volunteer camp hosts who have embrace this park as their own and demonstrate daily pride of ownership making sure each site is immaculate prior to occupying.

We stayed in the Dairy Camp East Loop which was a tad smaller (35 versus 43) than the West Loop. All pads are at least 50 foot long. The sites at each loop are full hookup with a picnic table and fire pit. Each loop feature hot showers, flush toilets and a camp host to answer questions and sell firewood. There is also a wonderful horse camp loop with13 sites, each with full hookups.

The park offers 25 miles of trails for biking and hiking, a mix of challenging to easy. There is also an 18 hole disc golf course that winds it way through the forest. For pet owners, there is a huge fenced dog run area near day use area.

Verizon cell phone coverage was very good and our hotspot worked fast. Park is close to the town of Vernonia for any shopping needs, but also a short and easy drive to Portland.

Clean and well maintained campground with a lot of activities available during the summer season. The park rangers are all very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. Sites are clean and level. We stayed in the west loop to have more of the trees and shade. There are plenty of hikes from both camp sites and range in ability. It was an easy drive into Portland to see the city.

This is one of our favorite campgrounds, and that's saying a lot because Oregon has some very good state and city campgrounds. This was our 2nd visit as we passed through 4 years ago and were determined to make it back for a longer stay.

We stayed in the West area and had plenty of room for our 45ft. The one-way loop roads are in perfect condition. The site has a large square area next to the RV with fire ring and table. 50A hookups worked fine. We are surrounded by trees and the large space between sites is filled with trees and shrubs.

The AT&T/Verizon signal is excellent, I stayed on AT&T which has a tower 3 miles away and gave a rock-solid stable signal the whole time.

The dogs loved it! There are chipmunks and, on several occasions, deer all around the RV. The walks are on excellent condition trails and well documented. We walked the 200 yds to the trails most days and loved the wooded walks.

Chose this park for its proximity to wineries in the Tualatin valley. Very easy access. All but a few sites are full hookup. Even water is on in the winter as Oregon State parks heats their spigots. All sites nice pea gravel and perfectly level. Most are back in but no issues with overhanging branches or tight corners. We stayed in Dairy creek east loop which is wooded. West loop, closed in winter, is totally open field. Miles of hiking and biking trails. Very large State Park, beautifully maintained as is typically for Oregon.

I said I would camp here again, but NOT in the same site. Unless you enjoy feeling like you are parked in a fishbowl surrounded by dead grass, avoid the sites in the middle of the loop! In particular, sites 67 and those surrounding it are not appealing. All the positive reviews and pics of wooded sites did not prepare me for the barren wasteland that we called home for 6 nights. The sites on the edge with some trees did look nice, but still didn't have that wooded feel I would expect from an Oregon state park.

On the plus side, full hook-ups for only $32/night is a really good value, the staff was fantastic, and the trails in and around the park top notch. I guess the moral of the story is that even the nicest campgrounds have some sites that are best to avoid.
