Emigrant Springs State Park i USA

We stayed in one of Emigrant SP’s FHU sites (30 amp), and while our site was long enough and pretty easy to back into, the sites vary significantly. All of the sites are fairly narrow and the pads tend to be pretty crumbly, cracked, and uneven. I would guess this is an older park, and Google Satellite and Street views proved quite helpful for selecting a site. The CG is pretty, full of mature pines, and offers a nice nature trail (however, a little rain easily floods the trail and where it’s not flooded, it’s muddy). As other reviewers point out, the highway is right there, and there was a fair amount of daytime noise. However, we didn’t find it to be that bad and enjoyed a pretty quiet stay. While this park is easy to access, it’s not terribly close to town, ie. gas or groceries, but Verizon worked fine without the booster. We would stay here again, despite being a bit pricey at $37 a night +$8 booking fee.

We found the last open hookup site without a res, for a quick overnight stay. There are only a few FHU sites and they seem to all be closest to the fwy, and the noisiest. Nice campground in the trees, but I would only stay again as an overnight stop. Too noisy to really relax and unwind. Good Verizon service.

This is a beautiful campground. However, you depend on solar to recharge, too many evergreen trees. Plus lots of highway noise from I84. The rest stop in Ontario, OR was quieter. B03 and B05 are close and due to the angle of B05 I thought a large 5th Wheel was going to back into me after dark.

It is really pretty here, wooded, shady, clean . . . but it is located on the very busy I-84, we really want to give it a better rating! The sites are okay, some a bit close together. All sites are paved and pretty level with a fire pit and table. Full hookups for $24, nonelectrical sites were cheaper. There is a horse and group camp as well as cabins and picnic area. Some, but not all sites can be reserved. There was some Oregon Trail history, a nature path, a large grassy area.

So I read reviews about the highway noise and I thought, "Oh, it can't be that bad." But it really is pretty loud. Our spot backed right up to the frontage road that runs parallel to the highway and we couldn't sit outside and talk without speaking loudly to be heard over the road noise. Thankfully, our site had full hookups, so once we were inside with the ac running we really couldn't hear it. I just didn't want to hang out outside here the way I usually do at a campsite. The spots are closer together than I like, so that combined with the noise is a big negative for me. Overall, it fills the need for a convenient spot with hookups but I'd say this is only good for a quick night's rest on your way to somewhere else. The area is beautiful though and the park is well maintained.
