Jantzen Beach RV Resort: Portland’s Island Retreat on the Columbia River
Stay in a rustic environment just minutes from a bustling metro area
Image Caption:
Jantzen Beach RV Resort entices campers to a peaceful retreat on Hayden Island, nestled in the middle of the Columbia River just off the I-5 bridge between Portland, Oregon, and Vancouver, Washington. Located on the Oregon side of the border, the resort cultivates a calm, rustic atmosphere with abundant trees, flowers, and lush landscaping, while being minutes from the excitement of Portland and the epic scenery of the Columbia River Gorge.

City Fun
Wake to tranquil water and Portland’s skyline at sunrise, then head into the city — just seven miles away — to explore vibrant galleries, museums, theaters, and an incredible dining scene. Portland’s riverfront life centers where the Columbia and Willamette meet: wide walkways, green spaces, waterfront restaurants, rowers slicing across the water, and the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry on the east bank. Don’t miss the floating house clusters or the lively festivals held along the waterfront, from microbrew fests to concerts and art shows.
Plan a weekend at the Portland Saturday Market, the nation’s largest open-air crafts market, for handmade goods, fresh produce, and live entertainment. Shop tax-free in Portland’s malls and nearby outlet centers, and when you’re ready for more nature, Washington Park awaits with the Rose Test Garden, the serene Japanese Garden, the zoo, the Children’s Museum, and miles of trails. For sweeping vistas and outdoor fun, visit Council Crest Park or take a scenic drive east along the Columbia River Gorge to Hood River — waterfalls like Bridal Veil, Horsetail, Wahkeena, and the towering Multnomah Falls await. Less than an hour south brings you to the celebrated Willamette Valley wine country.
