"Farewell bend is a day use state park and campground located near Huntington Oregon and nestled on the Snake River."

$5 / night
"We stayed here for one night on a long drive between Seattle and Boulder. Slept in a tent next to the truck and left early in the morning."
"Surrounded by mountains and waterfront. Quiet- although there is a train track close that did wake me once. But for $5 no complaints. Clean restrooms."

"A few miles from Huntington Oregon, but there are 12 miles of unpaved road to reach the camp."
"As the water pressure here is around 100 psi, you need to use a reducer. Sites are close to one another but you still have a grass yard with some separation."
"Set up as old mining town, the outside of the bldgs has nice antiques and starts you off feeling good about where you're staying."
"I'm just now getting around to reviewing some places that I've enjoyed and plan to return to. "
"Not the most scenic of campsites, and it is right next to the road so there was some noice at night, as well as lots of coyote howling. but I appreciated the convenient location, that it's free, and right"
"It’s right along the Snake River and borders an established campground to the east. There are two picnic tables/fire rings, one on either side of the boat launch."

"We got snowed on while we were there, but that's eastern Oregon in November!"
"Off the beaten path. Beautiful river valley views."
TravelerAs usual another great Oregon State Campground. Appears to be well maintained and clean plus right on the Snake River.
LegendA few miles from Huntington Oregon, but there are 12 miles of unpaved road to reach the camp. You drive the whole way along the Snake River and arrive at a beautifully kept area with many level spots, great cell phone reception, free firewood collection on the beach, fresh eggs for sale and wonderful hosts. I will be back as waking up to the mountains and sunrise and the river is exactly why I'm out here!
ScoutClean RV camping on the Snake River. Poor cell service, no WiFi. One shower for 40 + sites. Not crowded for the 2nd week of May. I would stop here again if I am in the area.
TravelerI really like this location. I wanted to pa down by the water, but we are pulling a small camper and the road looked way too rough to go all the way down. There was a car down there, so definitely passable, but not with our camper. The sites earlier on the road are nice though. Pretty big, with fire rings. Only complaint is the noise from the road. Not terrible, but definitely audible from where we were at with our windows open.
GuideWe've never camped here, mainly because we live nearby. Yes, it is windy here, great for windsurfers.
The directions offered are a little off. From North Powder Hwy 237, you will turn right on Government Gulch Road. When you get to the RR crossing, turn right, cross the tracks onto Telocaset Lane.
You can get there from the other side too. Stop at Pondosa Store for a little local history and some snacks. From Hwy 203 near Medical Springs, you go West on Telocaset Lane to Thief Valley Reservoir.
TravelerWell kept and nice rangers. Accommodating and quiet, lots of wild life. This is bear country so it thats not your thing, i wouldnt camp there. Lots of things to do close by both inexpensive and more expensive.
GuideConveniently located off the highway if you are traveling.
The spots are pretty close together, A and C loops are very open with no privacy. The B loop has some trees and bushes between the sites which makes it a little more inviting. The A loop is the closest to the road.
We had reserved a spot in C loop with a view of the water but it was so windy when we got there the site was not very comfortable. The camp host graciously let us move up to B loop, since it wasn’t very busy mid-week. Thank goodness we did, it was the windiest night I’ve ever experienced camping.
Sites have electric and water. They have dishwashing water waste stations conveniently thought the campground. The showers are free, had one cold because the water would not warm up. But the men’s shower room had warm showers after a bit of time to heat up.
The bathrooms and showers were clean.
TravelerCampground in located in Brownlee Reservoir at the mouth of Hells Canyon Snake River area. Paved, level sights, water, and Electricity on site. Some areas very shady so check in advance. Boat launch at the campground, plenty of room for Kayaks also. If you like fishing, wildlife watching, and hiking this could be your spot. The showers and restrooms were exceptionally clean. Camp hosts came around introduced themselves and were very friendly. WiFi can be purchased thru the telephone company in the area for various fees.
ScoutIt rained during our stay, but due to the nice clean gravel we didn’t end up a muddy mess!
