What Guests Are Saying
Lepage Park offers a pleasant camping experience with well-maintained facilities, friendly staff, and scenic views along the river. While some guests noted issues like gravel sites instead of grass and occasional water outages, the overall cleanliness and safety of the park were appreciated. It's a convenient stop for travelers, although nearby noise from traffic and trains can be a minor drawback.

Disappointed in n how the camp grounds has been taken care of. Weeds not mowed. We pulled the weeds around our site. We have camp there for over 50 years, our favorite place to camp and boat. Hurts us to see it how it is going down hill.

Site wasn’t clean, there was litter left over from previous campers. Actually there was more trash at this park than most parks we’ve been to. Very hot and very, very windy with ZERO shade. I understand there was trees at one point but they are no longer there. If you are looking for any privacy at all, there isn’t any. Also, watch for snakes. There are only vault toilets on the RV side and no showers. There’s flushing toilets on the tent side which are clean. Showers are with the toilets. They were not clean.
The swimming area was great for kids. There’s life vests if you forget yours. There is also a small park. The tent side seemed very nice and well maintained. A lot of shade and grass, we were in a pop-up so we ended up spending more time over there since the temperature was so high that day.
The bugs are something else at night being that close to the river, don’t forget your bug spray and citronella.

LePage is our favorite spot to center ourselves before we head back to the city after a long road trip. It is peaceful, beautiful and the folks that check you in are always very nice and helpful. Last visit we got to watch bighorn sheep on the hill across the way.

Nice location on the John Day Columbia Rivers convergence. Boat, kayak launch site right there. Our site was ok but was down wind of the pit toilets. Site 15. Tip: Stay at the western end below site 15. Day park right next door with plenty of grass, and a beach area to swim. Restrooms there we flush toilets but disgusting. Staff was nice. Water/elect worked great. Dump station was right at the campground. Our 1st experience with a COE site. All in all a good experience.
