"Just outside of Sweet Home Oregon (by 6 miles). Nice facilities with toilets and showers, close to South Santiam river. Great place to come for the Oregon Jamboree."
"Lots of trees all around, good shade for those hot August days. The bathrooms for the loop were a nice walk but not too far and they were cleaned 2x per day."
$9 / night
"Campgrounds are a little ways outside of Lebanon where we were able to get camping supplies at their 24 hour Walmart. Cute little town but not a big tourist destination."
"The small bit of driving you have to do to get to Waterloo is well worth it - what we have here is a spacious, friendly campground with good nearby attractions, including a moderately raging waterfall,"
$23 / night
"Bathrooms are located at the parking lot. The yurt village is a ways from the RV/Tent sites. Not a quick or easy walk.
Parking at the yurt village is a little walk from #2 and #3."
"For trailer camping I would recommend loop A as it is newest and has 4 drive through spots. Overall, would definitely come back."
"Near the entrance at the picnic area there is a sign warning visitors to lock their cars. This is a beautiful park, densely forested, bordered by the Santiam River."
"The campsites here are not as private as some of Oregon’s other campgrounds. That being said, it is a well maintained site that won’t disappoint!"
"The sites are nice and have a great little gravel square behind the trailer spot with a picnic table and fire ring. It definitely gets crowded on nice weekends so be prepared."
"A great place to load your boat on the Foster Lake Reservoir. Lots of water sports to play on this large lake. The Sunnyside campground has a place to moorage your boat for a fee overnight."
$22 - $64 / night
"If you want to camp in Oregon this is the place to go. There are several waterfalls and hiking trails. You can see wildlife and you can't beat the beauty. You can tent camp and they also have yurts."
"Probably the easiest accessibility to the most awesome waterfalls per few square miles in Oregon. Ample Parking and many different falls and trails to choose from"
"Just steps away from Foster Lake. Edgewater is super clean, tidy, and has nice RV spots. Located just outside the cute little town of Sweet Home. Close to some great hikes, including McDowell Falls."
"This is a nice, small, well maintained RV park near town. Foster Lake is just across the road and is beautiful with a decent trail along the lake."
"All areas are secluded, you can choose any place to camp at many options, no phone service but great area to fish and explore the forests, it’s a bit of a ways in but the drive is quite nice."
"Our GPS gave us good instructions to the adjacent golf course. There wasn’t any signage until we got to the golf course."
"Mallard Creek Golf and RV Resort is located about 3 miles from Waterloo (or 8 miles from Lebanon, Oregon and 11 miles from Sweet Home, Oregon)."
RangerWe found a great spot here for an overnight stay. Such a nice view to wake up to! There is no water available here. There are bathrooms available, but we didn’t need to utilize them. No fires allowed. There are no trash cans or dumpsters… this is a pack in, pack out area, so be prepared to take your trash with you! There was quite a bit of trash around and even some needles (be careful) down in a spot we chose not to use… and I did walk around our area and pick up a bunch of trash left by others. We did hear some vehicles driving by throughout the night, and around 4:30 AM someone was walking out around our truck and camper shining a light, causing our dog to bark, which I’m assuming scared them off, because when we got up and went out, we didn’t see anyone.. not sure what that was all about, but I’m glad I wasn’t alone!
GuideFriends took me here for few nights for my bday. Clean camp ground,quiet,not very big here n ur vehicle not prkd at ur site but really enjoyed staying here. Water wz to low to fish nearby but had fun looking for rocks. Will go again next yr.
GuideI absolutely loved this place, the staff are beyond exceptional... Well Wanda and her son wes.... There was a crusty woman working the office one day. The showers are amazing and the bathrooms are super clean! The laundry rooms are great! Very clean and all in great working order! They even have it piped in at every site u can have a garden hose hooked up to wash off your car or RV! I can't say enough good things about this place!
GuideGood stop, showers and bathrooms are clean, A LOT of people live here.... Manager is new and does not really know what's going on, I was told there is a lot of police activity there... Saw a few homeless people and cars with tow tags on em. Otherwise it's clean and safe
GuideThis place is awesome! They have everything!! The only thing we don't like is the showers, they are dirty and there is absolutely no water pressure at all!! But we will just shower in the 5th wheel! Other then that this place is great!
GuideVery nice campground. Spots have a paved driveway and all seem to be relatively level. Private free hot showers! Right next to the ten falls trail loop.
GuideSites were really easy to get into. River was pretty and plenty of kids playing.
GuideThere are a few spots off the road here. One large open spot big enough for 2 vehicles and several pull offs. There is a little traffic on the road, mostly big trucks.
ScoutWe stayed here for 11 months. We had a problem with our fridge overheating and the compressor being noisy when the afternoon sun hit the front side. We built an insulated box to solve the problem. Painted it. It wasn't an eyesore. We didn't have more than 5 personal items in our lot. Manager made us take it down. Said there would be a spot in September that she could move us to. Was unwilling to switch around someone who wasn't coming in for 2 months. When September hit, nothing happened. She never did move us. But she did move her RV to the prime spot, facing the way that we needed, up front when it came open. Lots of spots with so much junk under their RVs. We had a whitewater raft under ours and were told that we couldn't have it under there. Instead of paying a ridiculous price for a storage unit, we sold it. We already had one in the RV. Head management was coming through in a couple of weeks and she had to make the place look like she actually enforced the rules? Their sprinkler system quit working. The maintenance person put the sprinkler on the grass on the side of us. My window was wide open. Soaked my couch, left a water stain all across the blinds(RV was 9 months old) and the water stained a handmade quilt on the back of my couch. When I called the office the manager told me to stop yelling at her. I guess a loud voice was yelling? The guy said he didn't see that my window was open, yet I saw it was as I drove up. The manager also charged my debit card for our last couple of days/electricity without my permission. When I called to confront her about it, she hung up on me. I had to call my bank to get my card cancelled but the charge went through. Even though she sent me an email saying I was refunded. I am now trying to deal with the head office about her. Rent also going up to$830 a month. For a parking spot and water. No internet. Lots of sirens. Heard gunfire a lot. Not a great part of town. Lots of homeless people, garbage because it's near the can redemption center.
