Fishing and creek exploration draw campers to Aldered Estates, a free, drive-in site set in forested terrain near a creek outside Kalama, Oregon. Access is rough, so high-clearance vehicles are advisable. The site provides drinking water, firewood, and cell service, and campfires and pets are both permitted. Camp Wilkerson is a managed alternative roughly 5.8 miles southwest for campers who want a more developed setup, and campgrounds around Kalama give additional context for planning the broader area.
Description
Closed indefinitely until we get county approval to operate.
Complete privacy with easy access. Camp in a mixed forest of ~30 year old red alder, douglas fir, bigleaf maple and western red cedar. Hike down the canyon to a beautiful year-round creek shaded by ~100yr old trees. A carpet of bleeding hearts and sword ferns with pacific trillium scattered throughout. Pullouts for RVs but no hookups. Secluded primitive campsites. Water and firewood available by request. Portland 60min. Astoria 75min. Vernonia 45min. Goble Tavern just 15min away.
