Lemolo Forebay

Looked like a great place to camp. Arrived at about 3:30pm and unfortunately all sites were occupied by then. After reading the prior couple reviews, I hoped this would have availability on a Thursday afternoon. Bummer. I noticed one group was playing music, so evening might not have been as quiet as I'd prefer.

Pavement turns to dirt road to get to the sites. Each site has a fire ring and a table. The vault toilet has a trash can and was stocked with TP when we were there but we bring our own.

The trails down to the river are loose dirt and steep but we drove to the other side of the river to lounge in the sun.

Lots of skeeters! Bring your bug spray

There are only about 6 little sites here and a boat ramp for the little lake. There is one long-drop toilet (no TP) and many sites had picnic tables. I'm not sure if all did, but ours did. We also had a fire pit.

We were there 2 nights and only had one other group show up the whole time.

There is a dangerous low-head dam at the beginning of the lake near the campground, so please keep track of your kids/pets!

I would certainly stay here again - it's about 12 minutes from the Umpqua Hot Springs!
