Vida is located on Route 126 in Lane County, Oregon. The small community is perched along the McKenzie River and set against the foothills of the Cascade mountain range in the Willamette Valley.

This small town is named after the daughter of the first postmaster, Francis Pepiot, who settled here in 1868. In the past, Vida was an important link between the Eugene and Springfield areas of Oregon and the upper McKenzie River. It served as a place for stagecoaches to change horses before continuing on to Belknap Springs, and in the early 1900s was home to a state salmon hatchery. Renting an RV in Vida, Oregon lets you make the most of your time in Willamette Valley, where forests, farms, and vineyards abound.

Discover Vida


The Great Outdoors

After you pick up your Vida camper rental head to the nearby Ben and Kay Dorris State Park. The Park spans 79 acres and has a boat landing and picnic sites within its boundaries. It also overlooks Class III Marten Rapids, which is the best known of the McKenzie River rapids. Located just under a mile east of the park entrance is The Rock House, a rock overhang where pioneer road builder John Templeton Craig was said to have stayed. This is a neat spot to explore as long as you’re up for tackling a very steep grade to reach the House.

Hit the trails threading throughout this region with epic vistas to be found whether you prefer to walk along tranquil backcountry roads or pedal through old-growth trees on a wilderness challenge. Vida is known for being the gateway to the McKenzie River Trail, a 26-mile trail which hikers and mountain bikers alike flock to for its soft single-track and scenic views of the wild river, surging waterfall cascades and lava canyons with still pools.

Should you be seeking water recreation on your RV outdoor adventure, consider the vast opportunities available in the sparkling river, reservoirs, and lakes. Local rafting companies offer a variety of trips on the McKenzie River, ranging from a mellow drift to a more rambunctious splash in the rapids. This stretch of the river is heavily stocked with fish, so it’s also particularly popular for trout fishing.

RV Parks

Campgrounds and RV parks are easily accessible when it comes time to park your Vida motorhome rental after a day of exploring. You can choose to immerse yourself fully in nature as well as discover convenient proximity to supplies and services.

Many campgrounds in Willamette National Forest offer sites for RVs, just be aware hookups are not provided here. Cougar Crossing Campground is only a short hike to the steaming natural waters of Terwilliger Hot Springs and Rider Creek waterfall.

Another option is the Holiday Farm RV Resort in nearby Blue River. This setting is close by the Three Sisters Wilderness Area and is just a short walk from the river, making the resort a perfect place to enjoy an abundance of nature-bound activities. Every site offers full hookups, WiFi is included, and there is a service area with laundry and heated showers. A large park next to the lodge leads to a lake with a fire pit area for lounging, and the resort also boasts a fenced in dog zone so Fido can run free.

Exploring the City

One thing that you must do with your Vida travel trailer rental is take a drive to the Goodpasture Covered Bridge, located just off Highway 126 at the Leaburg Dam near Vida and stretching across the river. Built in 1938, this historic landmark is Oregon’s second longest covered bridge. As you marvel at the 165-foot long structure’s charming architecture including 10 gothic style louvered windows, you’ll see why it is one of the most photographed covered bridges in the state.

Vida is home to a small community with a gas station, grocery store, cafe, and post office among its modest resources, but should you need more supplies and activities, the town serves as a great springboard to the city of Eugene, which is only about a 40 minutes drive away. After you build up an appetite from a day of adventuring in your luxury motorhome rental from Vida, take some time exploring the culinary delights of Willamette Valley, a region whose farm-to-fork food scene is as well-loved as the wine from its outstanding vineyards.

Whether you’re looking to experience idyllic countryside or a dose of culture, book an RV in Vida, OR to enjoy life’s simple pleasures in the beautiful setting of Oregon.
