Hoodview Campground

Great camp host! Bathrooms are spotless. Water is available. There is a nice hiking/biking trail around the lake.

Hoodview Campground is a well maintained campground on the Southern end of Timothy Lake. The 11.5 mile Timothy Lake trail goes around the entire lake and is accessible from the campground. There is a boat launch and dock here making it easy to access the lake. Timothy lake is a no wake lake so paddle boarding and other non motorized boats can enjoy the lake. The lake is also stocked with trout making for some great fishing with Mt Hood as a backdrop. The bathrooms (pit toilets) are well maintained and clean.

Very friendly staff and a great view of Mt. Hood! There are a few spots however that are on a slope so when renting keep this in mind. The lake is definitely family friendly as well with many shallow spots. The water temperature was amazing.

We stayed in space 07 it was on the loop in the middle area so not on the lake which kinda sucked because everyone and child walked and rode(bikes) non stop. But that wasn't the worst part about the camp spot, it was that there was massive roots and on a slope. The picnic table was AWFUL you either leaned back or leaned forward it was buried in the hill .. what a worthless table. From what we could see none of the spaces looked flat. We have a small travel trailer w/ one small slide out and it was not fun trying to back it in to the space with big boulders everywhere too so I couldn't imagine what it would be like for someone with a bigger trailer and slide outs. Other than that the lake was beautiful we took our inflatable kayak out on the lake, there was nice easy beach access. There was

This used to be a 5 star for me and my favorite place on Timothy Lake. My experience Wednesday morning with the PGE Park camp hosts was rude and downright hostile. Until PGE addresses my complaint, I can no longer recommend. Which is a shame because it's been my favorite place on this planet for over fifteen years. The pictures show why. But being rushed out of my camp spot before checkout time and then rushed out of the campground even though I explained the policy was unclear and actively harassed while trying to leave has really ruined my experience and on my birthday nonetheless.
