Something not right?
Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
A few public parking lots used mostly by locals to hike/ walk the riverside trail. There are no signs prohibiting camping. We stayed one night and it was fine. Quite a bit of trash on the ground and a few folks around who might be transients. The Southern Pacific rail also passes by right across the street a few times a night and it got LOUD when they do, complete with train horns and bells. Our van literally shook. This would be a good place to overnight if you are passing through Portland and need a spot to crash right off I-5. The area is not the best but certainly not the worst either.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Lovely surprise. Several parking lots. Free. Green. River.
There’s lots of people and noises. Train. Planes. Animals.
No one bothered us at night. Noticed other cars as well.
No signs.
I woke up to a dead squirrel by my door, almost stepped on it. I cried, called my friend then buried it. It was a lot! But to the spot it was cool. The train is loud but I slept right through it. The place is beautiful, I didn’t see trash and the other people that sleep here were quiet. It was a good spot other than the dead animal 😭🥺. Would come again and probably stay her for a few. Oh there’s three lots and a restaurant by it. It’s called Waterfront Renaissance Trail Vancouver WA Address: 115 SE Columbia Way, Vancouver, WA 98661
Report Check-InLovely view of the river and no one bothered me for two nights. Railway was reasonably loud but not that bad in my opinion.
