Jefferson County Fairgrounds

Open field camping area that is a good option if you can't get into the nearby State Park(s). Sites not overly level and most only have 115V / 20A power, requiring an adapter for your RV plug. Restrooms have seen better days but the hosts try to keep them clean. Lots of good pressure, hot water showers, no charge. Best part is that you can pretty much let your dogs run free (altho this might be different in high season and during events.) Lots of space to let them run

The Fairgrounds campgrounds are a good place to stay. Coded entry for campers to the bathrooms and showers. Nothing fancy but works well. There are almost always spots available. Fort Warden almost always is full so this is a great back up.|The past issues have gone away. I live near the fairgrounds and see the conditions almost every day.

We rented the Oscar Erickson Building for an event, two years running. The staff were excellent to work with and very accommodating. The fees were reasonable. The stage is nice. Wi-fi available for event staff but not attendees. The room is a little dated and brown, so we brought a lot of color, and the bathrooms could use some work.

They don’t give you the code for the restroom. The email said that we would get the code the day of our arrival but nothing ever came. Paid 20 something dollars for literally nothing more than a place to park. No restroom. No shower. Would not recommend.

Hookups were at the front of our campsite and on the wrong side. We never saw a camp host. The police were called out here twice for a dispute. Water pressure was unreliable. Several people were walking the grounds with their dogs off leash. On the plus side there are loads of wild blackberries on the property which are great for snacking or for cobbler.
