Free dispersed camping along a forest road in Deschutes National Forest draws campers who want a no-cost drive-in site without a reservation. Pull-offs line the road at intervals, and a quarry at the end allows vehicles to drive to the top, giving larger rigs a workable turnaround. Cell service is available. Noise is a real factor here: reviewers have noted ATV traffic late at night and shooting activity at the base of the quarry. Campers who prefer tent setups will find more options along the road, though one pull-off near the Highway 31 turnoff has room for an RV. Those planning a broader Central Oregon trip can compare campgrounds near La Pine before settling on a site. Come prepared for activity from other users, especially on weekends.
