leave Thursday night around 8pm, get south of Portland, then finish the drive Friday morning.

I will look into the campgrounds that were recommended & like the idea of camping on the water. Probably going to reserve the camping spot, but do you think these toy rental places will be booked out on an early April weekend?
That will be extremely tough this late. Campgrounds in OR open up for reservations 270 days in advance, and I can tell you from personal experience you literally have to be Johnny on the spot the day your booking time comes available.
If you're wanting to book now for Spring break, not to be a Debbie-downer, but I'm going to bet you're already out of luck.

Honeyman has water/power and a dump as you leave.
