Park recommendations on west coast

We are starting to book for Spring/Summer trip up west coast to San Diego to BC, ID, then back down the coast in the fall.
Park recommendations for 45’ coach, towing would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
Tom

Don't know anything about CA.

Oregon - Coast? The Mill in Coos Bay, Winchester Bay, Heceta Beach in Florence, Cape Kiwanda in Pacific City.

Oregon - I-5? Seven Feathers between Grants Pass and Roseburg, Blue Ox in Albany.

Oregon - Inland? Sisters RV between Bend and Sisters

Washington - I-5? No real experience

Washington - Inland? Horn Rapids in Richland, Deer Park RV Resort north of Spokane

Idaho - North? Blackwell Island in Coeur d'Alene, Granite Lake in Clarkston (WA)/Lewiston ID, Ambassador in Caldwell

We've stayed in all of those, and they are all very nice and very suitable for your coach. We were in a 42' Dynasty and towing an SUV.

Winchester Bay RV Resort in Oregon is outstanding. Reservations are a must.

In Bend Oregon, Crown Villa RV Resort is superb.

Fidalgo Bay Resort in Anacortes WA is great.

Add my 100% approval to Crown Villa in Bend, as well. Watch out that your GPS doesn't take you the "logical" route to the park. Ours brought us to this railroad overpass and no way to turn around. There was no concave shape to the road under the structure and the pavement looked really old, so we surmised that the clearance sign might be pretty good. I had previously physically verified our coach at the time, an '06 Dynasty, was 12' 6", almost on the button. So we gave it a very slow "go" and all was good. But check out the "rash" on the face of that structure! Many didn't fit!!!

Tom, Are you planning a straight shot to BC on I-5 or is there some sight seeing involved?

All sightseeing. We’ve got friends and family up the coast and inland ( CA, OR, and WA).
I know we have limitations on routes.
Our return will back to Phoenix.

I will second Ambassador in Caldwell (20 miles west of Boise). Have stayed there multiple times visiting family. Paved roads, gravel parking, good power and water pressure.
Later...

Mountain Home RV Resort about 40 miles East of Boise, cement pads, huge sites, especially in the newer section in back of the park and reasonable rates. Run well and nicely kept up. It is full or near full most of the Summer so call ahead. Best value, as far as monthly rate that we’ve found in 5 years of full timing.

Be sure to check out Cal Trans length restrictions for motor homes on coastal roads.

Here's a beautiful park right on the Oregon beach. It's a little pricey but a great location. Sea Perch RV Resort

Park recommendations on west coast

X2 on Seven Feathers, Fridalgo Bay, & Mt Home RV Resort.
Also add:
Bay Point Landing, Coos Bay, OR and Blue Herron French Cheese Co, Tillamook, OR. Blue Herron is a Harvest Host with a huge level field for over nighting. There were at least 10 RVs the night we stayed. A Newell was pulling out as we were arriving. I’m pretty sure anyone can park over night, HH or not.

We have stayed at Pacific Shores in Newport, OR many times; it's a great park and Newport is a great place for food and exploring. Beverly Beach and South Beach State parks are good too but not as nice.
