6. Royal Heart Hill
Lorane, Oregon2 Reviews•23 Photos•17 SavesPlease use hipcamp for updated info and booking sites. At the Heart of Royal, Oregon (in Cottage Grove proper) we are at the very end of a Dead-End road, which means no sound or light pollution from passing cars or nearby residences. Surrounded by BLM and Timber properties (please be aware of clearly marked private property/no trespassing signs at the end of the public road), while still being just under 6 miles outside of downtown Cottage Grove-the town of Covered-Bridges- with many options for shopping, dining, breweries and live music! Nearby access to wineries and two large lakes (Cottage Grove and Dorena) with swimming, boating, fishing, as well as hiking and biking trails. We are 35 minutes/27 miles from the heart of Eugene.
All campsites are a short walk away from a small pond (no swimming) and epic sunset views! Oak savanna habitat restoration and sustainable thinning of mixed woodland in process on the land.
**Poison oak is present! Please know how to identify, or ask and I will show you** I have done my best to clear it away from main camping areas and trails, but be cautious. Tecnu is provided in the outdoor shower if needed!
**LEAVE NO TRACE//PACK IN, PACK OUT! Trash bags and bins are provided, but please take all of your trash with you, NO DUMPING! This includes compost, as to not attract animals and insects.**
**All guests have access to the outdoor shower, which is located on the 'Pad'.**
**COMPOSTING TOILETS- There is a composting toilet at each site; however, only the toilet at the 'Pad' (near the dome and shower) has a urine diverter. If one feels uncomfortable urinating outside, this toilet can be used. At the other two sites: PLEASE, poop only! Urinate outside and throw TP in trash or composting barrel (around back of toilet). Before use: Make sure bucket is lined with sawdust. After use: Cover waste with sawdust 3:1 and dump bucket in the composting barrel around back. Replace bucket and line with sawdust. Be Courteous! Thank you!** For humanure to break down properly, urine and feces must be kept separate. This is because the urea present in urine degrades into ammonia and kills the microbes that would otherwise break down the waste.
Campfires are allowed within local regulation.
**Absolutely no illegal activity of any kind or you will be asked to leave immediately with no refund. NO HARD DRUG USE!**
The 'Platform' site hosts a bell tent, large fire pit, composting toilet (for #2 only), potable water and electric via hose/extension cord, is a short distance from our outdoor shower, and is accessible with 4WD during the wet months and 2WD during the dry months; however, it is not accessible with a camper/trailer. From this site one can see the top of the monolithic Dome-Home and RV pad.
The 'Tent/Trailer' site is the more secluded site and is available amongst our Madrone and Chinquapin tree zone. The road to this site is flat and accessible by car/camper/small trailer. There is a turn-around (somewhat tight), but trailers larger than 17ft may have difficulty using it. There are many level spaces to park or pitch a tent. Campers have access to electric via extension cord, a small cooking-fire-pit and composting toilet (#2 only); however, potable water, and outdoor shower are all located by the Dome, which campers will have to walk (short distance) or drive to. There is currently an old (being renovated) trailer on site (out of the way), which is off access to campers.

Tree covered
Close to Cottage Grove, COE spot accepted the Passport for half priced camping.
The campground roads can be tight if you have a big rig so be careful. Because there is no power in the sites people were running generators for hours, even the tent campers.
Large groups were utilizing the group areas when we stayed, lots of children having fun.
It would not be a destination place but okay for an overnight stay.
Alchol ban in the park but based on the trash bins it was not enforced.

Nice camp spot near Dorena Lake
Great location and beautiful view. Great for families. Not the most quiet spot but the view makes up for it. Restrooms were under construction but they provided single vault toilets.

Bathrooms were close, also water between every two camp sites. Showers were pretty nice. The lake is absolutely amazing! Really was worth money. It also wasn’t to expensive at all.

Really awesome facility. Every site is big-rig friendly and almost perfectly level. Minimum work getting setup. The river is just feet away. Dog friendly. We especially liked the trains that occasionally tooted and roared down the opposite side on the river canyon.

Dry Camping
Upside - Right on the lake and lots of spots with shade which would be good for summer heat.
Downside - no alcohol permitted (loosely enforced it seems). And the restrooms and dump station are being rebuilt as of May 2024 and it will likely take a year or more. There are porta-potties. You are allowed to dump at the facility up the road for no cost.

Will lie to your face
Catherine Thagard is downright racist. She is claims policies that are not written. They threaten you, and are horifically aggressive. They bend their "rules" and policies dependent on "who" you are. Most importantly, they treat their employees horribly. Only stay here if you want to fund a racist, masaginistic company that willingly abuses their staff.

Amazing group camp across the road from Fall Creek
Wonderful group camp that can sleep all your friends and relatives! Fun little bunk houses for the kids and a big covered area for cooking and hanging out. Big field for tents, frisbee, drum circles, etc. There is a great swimming hole right across the street and a good jumping platform just up the road at the next pullout. The hike from the campground up to the butte is great too.

One of Our Favorites
Our GPS brought us right to the campground (CG). This was our third time staying in what we consider one of our top 5 CGs. Check-in was quick and easy. We proceeded to pull through site 49, which was plenty long enough for our 40’ fifth wheel and F450. The water and electric were centered on the pad. The sewer sat a little farther back on the pad, but that was not an issue. You can hear the river really well from site 49, and that is the major reason we chose this site. If you don't like the sound of a raging river, you would want to get a site further down or a site not on the river. We had good water pressure around 50 psi, 2 bars on Verizon, and the CG WiFi was okay. Even though there were mature trees, we got a good north shot for Starlink. Satellite could be iffy depending on your site. Sites are okay spaced, with some sites closer together than others. Our utilities side neighbor was very close, and our yard side was nearby. They have a nice laundry with 3 washers and dryers that cost $1.50 to wash/dry. There was a significant increase in train traffic from the tracks across the river as compared to our last stay. There were also some updates, such as putting in a really nice pavilion with an outdoor fireplace plus some landscaping additions. The Westfir/Oakridge area is known as the mountain biking capital of the Northwest, and there are a multitude of biking and hiking trails.

An adventure and accommodation for everyone!
General: Located just across the street from the North Umpqua River, there is a mix of:•
* petite RV sites (RVs up to 20’ with FHU 20-30 amp- 3)
* deluxe RV sites (RVs up to 29’ with FHU 30-50 amp- 5)
* Super RV sites (RVs up to 60’ with FHU 50 amp- 7)
* glamping tents (7)
* cabins with heat and A/C(4)
* a cottage
* a tiny home
* camper
* retro bunkhouse
* retro RV
Site Quality: We were in a deluxe RV site that had a level gravel camper pad, electric hookup, fire ring, and picnic table. Unlike most RV parks, there was a decent amount of foliage between most sites to provide a measure of privacy.
Bath/Shower House: Two toilets, two sinks, and two showers. Clean but limited privacy for the toilets with just a curtain. Bench and hooks are outside of showers with no other separation so there is a lack of privacy there as well (did not use the shower so I cannot comment on how well it worked, although they looked nice).
Activities/Amenities:
* Guided and Self-guided hiking tours
* Guided and self-guided mountain bike tours
* a full-day waterfall tour ($75 pp, with 24-hour advance notice)
* whitewater rafting tours
* Stream and river fishing holes
* Fly fishing and hunting
* Kayak rentals on Toketee Lake (We had hoped to do this, but the weather had other plans)
* Wi-Fi is available for $2.99 per 24-hour period per device but it was flaky at best
* There is a store with ice, firewood, food, beer, and wine, apparel, propane, diesel, and gasoline, rafts, and sleds.
We arrived later than planned (just before dark) and it was cold and rainy the next day so we were not able to take advantage of the many nearby recreation activities but the staff recommended a nearby waterfall hike that we could do in inclement weather. We would definitely consider returning during better weather.

Wonderful quiet spot in the woods
We loved the tent/trailer camp spot on Carly’s property. It was quiet and peaceful and we were able to disconnect and relax for a couple of days. There’s a nice hiking trail down to a pond with cute signage to lead the way.
The composting toilet had a stack of dried firewood from the property beside it and also some cute tables and chairs by the fire ring made from local trees.
All in all a wonderful place just outside of Cottage Grove. We will definitely be back next year!

Everything you need, plus some!
We’ve recently had the pleasure of staying at a five-star campground (twice now and headed back this weekend) that exceeded all expectations. The amenities provided were fantastic, offering everything my family needed for a comfortable stay. From clean and well-maintained restroom facilities to spacious picnic areas, this campground had it all.
One of the standout features of this campground was its ideal location. Situated in a breathtaking natural setting, it provided easy access to various outdoor activities, including cliff jumping. The thrill of jumping into the refreshing waters is always an exhilarating experience for my children and husband adding an extra layer of excitement our stay.
What truly made this campground exceptional was its staff. The friendly and helpful team went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was enjoyable. From providing valuable local tips to assisting with any inquiries, their dedication to customer service was evident throughout our visit. The presence of a knowledgeable ranger further enhanced the overall experience, as they provided insightful information about the surrounding area.
Lastly, the peace and tranquility offered by this campground were unparalleled. The serene surroundings allowed us to unwind, unplug and connect with nature on a deeper level. Whether it was sitting by the campfire or taking a leisurely hike through the nearby trails, the sense of serenity was truly rejuvenating.
In conclusion, I highly recommend this five-star campground to anyone seeking a remarkable outdoor experience. With its excellent amenities, superb location, friendly and helpful staff, and proximity to cliff jumping, it is the perfect destination for family of adventure enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Prepare to be captivated by the peaceful and awe-inspiring atmosphere that this campground offers.

Summit Lake Campground
Heaven on earth - could do without the mosquitos
My husband, daughter, and I camped at Summit Lake over the weekend 7/1/2023 - 7/2/2023. This is one of my all time favorite locations. We drove in from I-5 through Oakridge Highway 58 to FS Road 21 to FS Road 2154 to FS Road 398. Total distance once you get off Highway 58 and onto FS Road 21 is approximately 40 miles. If you are here during the week, it is highly likely to have the entire lake to yourself. We don't usually camp in the campground, rather, we camp in one of the primitive sites along the west shore of the lake. Our site was right on the lake, had a nice rock fire pit, and offered breathtaking views of the lake and surrounding buttes. The only complaint we had was the mosquitos. We used an entire bottle of bug spray and I still walked away with dozens of welts. We built a fire that seemed to push the mosquitos out but drew in the noseeums. Very peaceful location, breathtaking views, and great kayaking and SUP.

Beautiful but beware the poison oak
$10/night.
We drove in and heard the sound of screaming rafters. The location is gorgeous right next to the water. There is a bit of higheay noise but it is mostly drowned out by the river.
Two pit toilets, the male toilet is missing the lid. There is garbage service.
Each of the sites had a fire ring and a picnic table.
The paths down to the water have some poison oak growing by them so be careful. We did not have cell service so download offline maps before you get here.

Susan Creek Campground
So happy this campground re-opened after fire damage
General: 30-site BLM campground on the North Umpqua River. No hookups.
Site Quality: All sites are level and paved. An extra-large picnic table, bbq, and fire pit complete the site. You will likely hear the river from all sites but the best sites back up to the river (3-7; 22-30) and sites 4-7 have a view of the river. The sites on the other side of the loop have, while functional, evidence of the wildfires that closed this campground for a while.
Bathhouse: Brand spanking new in 2022! Five individual shower stalls, and one handicap toilet/sink room in addition to the men’s and women’s bathrooms. The bathrooms had signs indicating they were not currently cleaned up to the Oregon Health Authority, but I thought they were very clean!
Activities: You can hike the Emerald Trail to the Day Use area which accesses a trail to Susan Creek Falls. Roundtrip from the campground is just short of three miles. Be aware of poison oak all along the trail! In addition, we were warned to be cautious of burned trees/branches/debris falling on us, particularly if it is windy. This was not a problem when we hiked but we were glad to be aware. The North Umpqua Trail runs for miles in either direction from the campground.
We happened upon this campground by chance after dark four years ago; what has changed is that it is now reservation only. I love the peacefulness of this campground and falling asleep to the sound of the river; it is one of the few campgrounds we have visited that I loved returning to. So happy it re-opened after fire damage!

Great campground with hookups and active camp host. Firewood available onsite. Nicest restrooms and showers I’ve seen in any campground! The A Loop is more for smaller campers while the B Loop is better suited for the big rigs. Lots of activities including hiking, geocaching? Fisk golf, volleyball, fishing, swimming, and children’s playground and dog park. ADA handicapped accessible campsites available.

Rujada Campground
Book early
This was a last-minute find. It was packed and every site was taken. We were able to book because someone just happened to cancel their trip. Bathrooms are clean, but the trash can pile up pretty high from people packing water jugs and cardboard that they should probably take home and put in the trash. Sites are surrounded by trees to give privacy and not feel like you are sharing a site with your neighbor. There is a good hiking trail by the park Swordfern trail. Lots of trees were down when we went from the previous storm. But they were actively clearing them out.

Best camp hosts and cleanest campground
The tent pads have soft squishy stuff under them. All the sites are groomed. Bathrooms are spotless and always stocked. Camp hosts make their rounds and say hi or chat. This is by far the cleanest I've been to. Lots of hiking trails around this campsite.
