Thousand Trails Bend-Sunriver
Cellular: AT&T 2 to 4 out of 5 bars, but works. Was the only way I had internet was by making my phone a hotspot as well as my onboard MiFi.
SAT: Depends which lot you are in. Most lots are surrounded by tall trees, blocking southern exposure. Mine was such that I couldn't lock on satellites. A large number of rigs had portable dishes with long cables running back to the rigs so they could find an optimum spot to shoot through gaps in the trees.
WiFi: Although there are state of art WiFi stations scattered all over the park spaced less than half to a full football field distance apart (that they charge for online once connected), the only one that I was able to attach to was near the main enterance/checkin station. Others throughout the park, including the one right next to my lot and the two others near me within 75 feet, wouldn't assign an IP address, making it impossible to connect and sign in.
Amenities: 2 swimming pools, 2 dump stations, ALL LOTS NOW HAVE 50A SERVICE (even though the maps claim 50A is only on a small handfull lots near the check in station), laundry, basketball, horseshoes, pickles all, tennis, etc.
Other than no WiFi I scored a great spot at L13. Over half the spots have trees and srubs between them and are spaced fairly far apart for increased privacy. This RV park is extremely dusty with a very fine baby powder like dust. Bring your allergy meds and/or asthma inhaler.
I wish this park had sewer hook-ups. The general store has been closed since the pandemic, which also sucks.
Why stay here? It's the nearest to glorious Sunriver!!! This little resort town is awesome for all things outdoors. Rafting, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boards, bicycling, horseback riding, swimming, hiking, golfing, etc. The town even has a public observatory to look at the night sky. We come to Sunriver every summer, whether in the lodge, a rental unit, or the RV park.
Best,
