Resort?

What's the difference between a campground/rv park and an RV Resort?   A few years ago, nothing.  Now, on-ground activities make a resort.  Our new home at Chinook RV Resort in Klamath CA is very small--just 73 sites squeezed between two other rv parks on the north and south, and US101 and the Klamath River on the east and west, but has quite a few things to offer visitors.  
Entering the park, the office is on the left.  Also in the building are a small camp store and a nice activities center with game tables, a tv viewing area, fireplace and free tea and coffee.


Upstairs is a vacation rental, and at the end of the building


is a horseshoe pit.


To the right is another vacation rental, with a tent area the length of the park on the other side 


Behind the building is the rest of the park with playground area


and a small building housing the restrooms/showers 


and a tiny laundry.

At the back of the park along the river is a picnic area,



an evening gathering place (campfire every evening)


boat ramp


dock


and fish (mostly salmon) cleaning station.



Last night we sat around the fire chatting with a couple of regular summer visitors and watching the seals that swam up from the ocean for some river fishing.  They are regulars also, but only across the river in the deeper water.  They appear as brown bumps that rapidly appear and disappear.  Some times we could hear their calls.



So far, a bit of fog, but no smoke.
