We needed a place to stay to break up our road trip. We did not know what to expect when we wandered in here, but we’re pleasantly surprised. We called ahead to make sure they had room for us, as we needed a large spot with hookups. We were easily accommodated. The host was great (it was his anniversary). The park was completely full, yet amazingly quiet. The river is great! Bathrooms were clean. Location is a mere minutes from town. The park is kid and dog friendly. Hosts even leave chairs and floaties down at the river for common use. Would 10/10 stay here again and recommend. Only drawback (which is not the camp’s fault, but campers should be prepared): MEAT BEES!! The second we prepared breakfast in the morning we were swarmed!! I’ve never actually seen so many. The neighbor camper came out and was like “oh yeah the bees here are really bad, we started eating inside”. I quickly ushered my kids inside the trailer. So note to campers: eat inside during daytime hours if you can. …

My family (2 adults, 2 teenagers) and our family friends (another 2 adults, and 2 teenagers) planned to stay for 2 nights. Our plan was to visit the big cat park and the Oregon Caves. Our site was a pull through and our companions had a back in on the river. The camp sites are good sized and well graded gravel. Hook-ups are well located and site are clean. Not all site have fire pits but there are enough common pits well located that it didn’t matter. Also it was hot enough during our stay that we didn’t need a fire. Our companion family beat us there by about a half hour. They checked us in so I didn’t meat any staff until we made our way to the river. Jeff and Roberto were there enjoying the calm cool water and greeting folks on there way down to the river. Jeff (owner) remembered my name and site number. He was very friendly and easy going. We stopped to chat. Jeff had a lot of knowledge of the local area and confirmed our sight seeing plans were good ones. Here is where my 5 star rating really comes from. Our plans were a bit flawed. I tow a trailer. Our companions have a class C RV. We couldn’t get reservations at the Oregon Caves until the day we were scheduled to check out. We were aware that there is now RV parking at the caves, and we needed electrical to run the AC for our dogs. Couldn’t take them with us. Jeff generously allowed us to use his overflow parking and strung over an extension cord for power while we visited the caves. All in all, our visit thru Cave Junction Oregon was a good one. It was made way better by our stay at the Laughing Alpacas RV resort. Jeff’s friendly, generous, easy going personality combined with a clean, well sorted resort with easy access to the Illinois river had my Wife, Kids, and I agreeing that we should have stayed longer. We highly recommend this place. Thank you Jeff. …

Nice little park. Easy access off highway. Clean. Host was great. Would definitely stay again. Alpacas weren't there yet but that's ok. Full hookups, drive through site that was level. River views available.

I stayed at this wonderful RV park in July. Aside from the beautiful scenery, the alpacas, the nearby river and amenities what sets this place apart from the others is the management. I came in at the last second and the management/owners made concessions for me so I could stay the night. Instead of a flat out no, they problem solved to accomodate my needs. They even checked in with me before they left for the night. Pride in ownership!

We stayed here for one night in March 2022. The owners of the property were very nice and welcoming. We stayed in an RV spot backed up to the river, and it was very pretty. The park had really good Wifi that was available for us to use. (Most RV parks don't, so good Wifi was nice to have!) The park was quiet, and felt secure because their gates do close at night. We would definitely recommend staying here.

We stayed at Laughing Alpaca on a trip down the coast and across to Crater Lake. The park is wonderful and quiet. It is open and green with large sites. There are several who make sure the sites are watered daily and all are very friendly. They were welcoming to our pets, dog and cats (indoor only). We were let know they had a Border collie that roamed freely but we only saw it once and not when we walked our dog on her leash. If we cut across Oregon through the Redwoods again, we will definitely stay at Laughing Alpaca.

Very pleasant RV park. They work hard on upkeep of the grounds. A few trees need some trimming for the higher profile rigs but it was doable. Interior sites circle the "park area" which is a pleasant change from lined up next to each other.
