This was our second time staying at this park. We stayed mid-week with a total of three campers in the whole park. There was a problem with the power early in the morning with the voltage dropping below 100 volts for a couple of hours then a total power outage for about 30 minutes. The park has lots of shade trees. Would stay here again.

We visit Pendleton Bend several times a year, the campground is always mowed and taken care of. The hosts were helpful and friendly.

Passing through and stayed one night. Great host that checked us in and a very quiet visit. Level paved spot next to the river. Didn't use any facilities but the area appeared well maintained.
