Wonderful place
Antelpe is literally out in the middle of nowhere. The ghost town on Shiniko is nearby. The stars are absolutely amazing at night. The a-frames are simple, but comfortable and have heat/air conditioning. There is a great place to sit and make coffee and chat with the other campers. There is still some construction being done, and it will even be more fabulous when completed. I stayed here on the tail end of biking the Oregon Outback.

Awesome campground
Antelope is a strange and beautiful little place. Part ghost town, part living community, it is often a welcome oasis on the Oregon Outback cycling trail. The path north out of Prineville is a beautiful ascent-descent of the Ochoco Mountains, which is pretty exhausting. If weather is a factor (we arrived in cold, wet and punishing wind) Antelope is a much better place to camp than Shaniko which is 8 miles up on a plateau.
The RV Park is a work in progress. We arrived without a reservation and were given a very nice spot to camp behind an old diner. Some small a-frame cabins are available with more being built, and a few spots to park campers with sewer dump and 30 amp hookups.
Overall I give this campground an outstanding rating. Hospitable, well-equipped, well-situated… great spot.

Heaven on earth
This place is a pure gem. Heaven on earth. Make sure to take the road to or from Shiniko to see the view.

Nice spread
Pretty amazing State Park, lucked on weather. Trails on either side are both nice cruisers on bikes - green runs, but can make them more work, and the views are sublime.  The park amenities were top-notch, including a nice windbreak. Stars at night were spectacular.

Lone Tree Campground — Cottonwood Canyon State Park
Almost off grid!
The park is extremely well maintained. We used what was labeled a “primitive” campsite. Each site is huge and well maintained. There are provided wind breaks and covered picnic tables as well as dedicated fire pits and firewood ready for sale. Be aware of fire season as there are no open flames allowed during certain times of the year. The river was beautiful and flush full of fish and crayfish! We will be making this a regular visit for our outings!

Be careful which site you reserve
Anson Wright Park Campground was a very challenging campground to review, and that's because depending on what section you are in really affects the rating. I gave it an overall score of 3, but be warned sections can run from zero stars to five stars. So this will be a detailed review rating almost campsite by campsite. To start the host of this campground was supper friendly, the campground has play ground and large grass area that the kids can play at. A small fishing pond is at one end of the campground. The campground has showers. Use the restrooms at the "visitor center" or at the ADA site, do not, and I mean do not attempt to use the outhouses.
The break down by sites.
Sites D1 and D2, the end of the campground near the fishing pond. These two sites are on a hill above the fishing pond and have lots of room, no to little grass and dusty, picnic tables and fire pits - 3 stars
Site D3 just below D1 and D2, small area next to BBQ area, no fire ring, has a picnic table small parking area, site is right along the campground road. Site is not flat and is bumpy 2-stars.
Site D4, not sure where this one is, should be next to BBQ area, no sign indicating the site, no clear parking area, not flat, no fire pit. 1-star.
Site D5, marking parking area, no fire pit, not table, no place to place a tent except on the edge of the gravel road, OK for an RV. 1-star
Site D6, No clear parking area, grass area for a tent, no fire pit or table, right next to welcome sign. 2-stars
D7, No clear parking area, no fire pit, no table, grassy area for a tent. 2-stars
D8, never found it, 0-stars
D9, just up from the visitor center, decent spot. Fire ring and table 3-stars
F7 though F10 get a 2-star. F8 & F10 have tables, F10 and may F9 have fire rings. F7 & F8 listed a ADA site, but not really, no fire ring or table.
F11 good campsite 4-stars
Cabin A - 5 stars
F6 - not level 3 stars
D13 Table, no fire ring, 3 -stars
D14 good site 4-stars
D10 decent site 3.5-stars
D15 unable to find 0-stars
D22 just a table in the grass, no parking area 1-star
D11 is marked as D20 on a tree, noting but a big grassy area 1-star
G2 and G3, decent sites but right on top of each other, table and fire ring, 3-stars
F5 and G1, right on top of each other, only one has a fire ring but can't tell which site it is for. 2- stars
F12 Big spot all by its self 4-stars
F13 through F19, pretty much just a gravel parking area with tables and fire rings 2-stars
F20 at the edge of the area for F13-19, but it has lots of grass, 3-stars
D23 through D25, grassy area with one table, no clear area to park, not really marked 1/2-star
D17 though D21, a Big negative star rating, do not reserve these, no access, overgrown, only one table in area, unable to find where the sites are, not maintained and appears to be area used to burn brush.
The 5-star sites are sites numbers F1 though F4, these are large roomy drive through sites, you got an RV then these are the sites you want, up on hill above everyone.
Would I stay here again, yes, but only if i knew I could get a good site, otherwise I will head down the road.

Cutsforth Park Campground
Cutforth in June.
This campground has full and partial hookup sites. The roads are gravel and wind their way up a steep hill, but the sites provide decent privacy. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. Pit toilets are located in one of the loops, but there are bathrooms with showers near the host site. There is a hiking trail directly from camp into the forest. We loved the serenity of being away from town in the woods where all we could hear were the birds and the creek nearby (and the thunderstorm that passed thru).
Guide to Condon
Cabin camping near Condon, Oregon provides rustic shelter options in an area known for high desert terrain and elevation ranges between 1,000 to 3,000 feet. The region experiences significant temperature variations with summer highs reaching 90°F and winter lows dropping below freezing. Most cabin facilities require advance booking during peak season from May through October when local wildflower displays transform the landscape.
What to do
Hiking trails access: Cottonwood Canyon State Park offers several trail options alongside the John Day River. "We did the Pinnacles Trail and Lost Corral Trail. Both of these hikes were 'moderate/difficult.' They were both a little over 8 miles roundtrip. The scenery is gorgeous on both hikes- you follow along the river," reports Julie P.
Fishing opportunities: The small fishing pond at Anson Wright Memorial Park provides trout fishing close to cabin accommodations. According to one visitor, "A little fishing pond with small trout jumping. Very quiet and lovely campground."
Biking adventures: Several cabin locations offer biking trails for various skill levels. "The camp designers did an awesome job of using the existing structures to add to the rustic nature and maintain the land's historic relevance. If you don't bring yours, they offered loaner bikes and there were little bike workstations on the grounds," notes one Cottonwood Canyon visitor.
Wildlife viewing: The canyon landscapes provide habitat for diverse wildlife. "We arrived just before dawn when my dog sat bolt upright and intently watched with me as an elk cow walked through our campsite," shares Shawn M. about their stay at Cottonwood Canyon State Park.
What campers like
Stargazing conditions: The remote location provides exceptional night sky viewing. "The stargazing is really nice and we saw some interesting birds and lizards around the campsite," reports Irene L., while another camper noted, "The beautiful moonlight set one side of the canyon aglow and the clear sky was filled with stars."
Swimming spots: The John Day River provides swimming opportunities during summer months. "The gorgeous John Day River, was perfect for fishing, swimming, floating," explains Caitlin S. about their experience at Cottonwood Canyon.
Remote solitude: Hunt Park offers peaceful surroundings despite being at a fairground location. "Borders a large cattle ranch so you may hear cattle mooing but that's about it. Very peaceful!" writes David B.
Climate variety: The region offers different experiences throughout seasons. "We have visited Cottonwood Canyon for the past 2 summers, and will likely return again this year. It's quiet, beautiful and plenty to do," shares Shawna M.
What you should know
Site selection matters: Cabin quality varies significantly between locations, with some sites offering minimal amenities. "Anson Wright Park Campground was a very challenging campground to review, and that's because depending on what section you are in really affects the rating... sections can run from zero stars to five stars," warns Dexter I.
Weather preparedness: The canyon areas experience significant temperature fluctuations. "We arrived at dusk, late in July, and as is typical for the region, it was still 90 degrees. Fortunately, my summer tent is mostly screen, allowing the cool canyon breeze in," explains one camper at Cottonwood Canyon.
Wildlife awareness: Morrow County OHV Park and surrounding areas require attention to wildlife. "If you ride ATVs, dirt bikes or side by sides there are over 300 miles of trails over 9,000 acres here," notes Jacob V., while others report rattlesnake sightings in the region.
