Likely Place Golf & RV Resort

The folks working here are super nice! We went for breakfast before we played 18. Really great food and service. I was expecting a “rough” course since it is fairly remote. Nothing could be further from the truth! The course is fantastic! Next time we will being staying longer! The RV sites are not slide to slide, plenty of room between rigs. Love it here!

We spent one night here on the way home after picking up our new travel trailer in Pendleton, Oregon. Kathy was very friendly and helpful during check-in and was kind enough to give us a pull-through site (#21) since we were just here for the night. Our site was fairly level and, had I felt like spending a little more time tweaking our position, I probably wouldn't have had to disconnect. We spent a very quiet and relaxing night, and we'll definitely return.

The park was easy to find, but a slow drive from the turn off in Likely due to the road being a little rough. Then the road leading to the park was a bit more narrow and it seemed like you were driving onto a private ranch. Our nightly rate included the weekly 1/2 price golf package. Check in was easy and we proceeded to back-in site 14 with FHUs. The road at the site was wide so back-in was easy. The utilities are more toward the front of the site, which made them very convenient for our rig. Great water pressure so suggest using your reducer. Our site backed up on the meadow and we were told this was an off leash area. The sites along the meadow had trees that provided some shade. The playground is on the far side of the meadow, however per reviews, this place is not considered kid friendly and that is a positive draw for us. We came to relax in the quiet and play golf, not have to hear and watch the campground babysit people’s kids as we are seeing way too much of that these days. The very nice lady at check in said we probably would not get WiFi in our far back location. Our Weingard Connect 2.0 did pull in some signal, but it wasn’t very good. However, we did get three bars on Verizon and our MiFi worked fine. We got 4 OTA channels so we put out our satellite and were pleasantly surprised we got an easy shot of the southern sky with the trees around the site. There are pull through and group sites up near the club house, but many were quite close together and not many shade trees. There are also a variety of tent sites available, some with 15/20 AMP. Our pups enjoyed the 1.4 mile nature trail, 3 mile trail around the golf course, and running off leash in the meadow area. The pups were allowed to go golfing with us, but we opted to leave them in the a/c as the temps were unseasonably high. We had a blast playing the golf course plus checked out Mill Creek Falls and Blue Lake both about 30 minutes away. Alturas has your main amenities plus we found reasonably priced diesel 5 miles out of town on US 395 North at Chimney Rock Travel Center just past the CA Agriculture check.  We’ll be back!


I don’t want to make this place sound so great because everyone and their mother will start coming. But it really is that nice here.

Here are just a few things I loved about this spot:
Friendly staff
Good food
Nice trails
Mostly level spots with incredible views

My only regret is being here when it was cool out, as I would have borrowed a kayak or paddle board.

We were so impressed with the friendly, helpful staff. They loan you kayaks, Boschee ball, horseshoes, paddle boards, golf clubs, bikes, etc. everything was ABSOLUTELY FREE!! Very clean, well kept campground and a nice and very reasonably priced golf course too.
The main negatives are:
1. LOTS of biting mosquitoes that seem bite regardless which repellant we tried. (We used 3 different brands and they still bit all of us).
2. The sprinklers came on both of the mornings we were there (our chairs and outdoor rugs, that were not even on the grass) got soaked!!

Wish we could have spent a week here! The RV sites were large and well-spaced. There were miles of walking trails all around the property - our Border Collies had so much fun chasing bunnies and lizards and swimming in one of the ponds! And the stars -- I had to take one of the dogs out in the middle of the night and was absolutely amazed at the sheer number of stars. Zero light pollution, no tall trees or buildings blocking the view - it was like being inside a planetarium. The WiFi didn't reach our RV site, but it would great on the deck of the clubhouse, which was just a short walk from the RV.

This was our second stay at Likely Place and won’t be our last. For one-night stays the lower area is pretty much a gravel parking lot with hook-ups. The upper area has grassy areas beside each site, spacing is adequate and some spots scattered around the perimeter may offer a little more privacy. Each site has a picnic table. Most sites are FHU-50 amp, a few are water/electric only. We actually thought the back-in sites along the tree line were the nicest and will request one of those next time we visit.

What really distinguishes this park are the amenities. A truly lovely golf course (and I don’t even golf!), a great little nature trail (don’t miss the views from Jose’s Point), FREE access to bikes, kayaks, and paddleboards. (Love that you aren't nickel and dimed to death!) We borrowed two fat-tire bikes for the 3.5 mile loop trail around the property – Awesome! We got a huge kick out of the giant jack rabbits and saw a Great Horned Owl on the nature walk. Golden Eagles also frequent Jose’s Point, but we missed them.

There is a small laundry (2 washers/2 dryers) that are very reasonably priced, restrooms, showers, a group fire pit/ BBQ area. There is a dump station. The clubhouse/office hosts a small café open for breakfast and lunch. Checkout the yellow folders on the information/brochure table for things to do in the area.

We had 4 bars of Verizon 4G. The clubhouse has free wifi which is also accessible from the covered deck.
