Sutherlin/Umpqua Valley KOA Holiday

We stayed at Sutherlin/Umpqua Valley KOA Holiday in Sutherlin, Oregon. (Campground Reviews listing.)

A KOA in an old drive-in movie theater, which still shows movies on the projection screen, and provided a viewing area with chairs and fire pits. The movie sound is played out loud, and can be tuned on a radio station for people who want to watch from inside their RV (for the sites that have a view of the screen, as ours did).

The movies were a bit noisy, but over before quiet time, and a fun novelty. We’d be happy to stay here again.
