Best Campgrounds near Eugene, OR

796 Reviews

Camping near Eugene ranges from county parks with full facilities to quieter forest spots just a short drive away. Armitage Park & Campground has clean bathrooms, hot showers, and electric hookups that work well for both tents and RVs. Richardson Park sits on Fern Ridge Reservoir, with good-sized campsites where you can easily get to the water. You'll need to store food properly since wildlife comes around regularly. If you drive a bit farther out, Hult Pond gives you more distance from other campers, plus good spots to launch kayaks and some hiking trails nearby. Some campgrounds have sites tucked among trees while others are more open with less privacy between spots. Eugene weather stays pretty mild, though rain shows up often in spring and fall. Summers warm up nicely for swimming and hiking. Always check if there are fire bans before you head out - they change throughout the season. The Eugene area has good options whether you're camping with kids or looking for somewhere quiet.
