Worth a night. Truck Camper
Pulled into spot 44 for one night in October. Same day reservations allowed. Very handy and the sites were largely vacant this time of year. Tent sites are acceptable for RVs and trucks campers if you don't need hookups . Check the length of the driveway online and if it's long enough you're good. It's well kept and close enough to the highway for an overnight. I didn't visit the park, including the bathroom facilities, just needed a play for the night, and this was fine

LegendPrineville Reservoir Main Campground — Prineville Reservoir State Park
So nice and quiet and super dark sky
Spent two nights here in space B5. Even though the campground said there was a slight slope to the space I found it almost unnoticeable. The reservoir was very very low. Nice walking along the shore. Showers were very clean. Kind of the only downside was about the last three or 4 miles into the park was very winding and narrow with a 25 mile an hour speed limit because of the sharp turns.

No privacy
Sites were very close to one another. Stayed in a site that backed up to the river. No view of the river but a very short walk to the banks. Showers were decent. Seemed to be well ran. Full hook ups is always a bonus. About a 20-24 min drive to Bend. Had to drive our trash to a disposal place outside the campground. Dumpsters at campground were locked during certain hours.

LaPine State Park Campground
Very clean, quiet, and picturesque
This is a very well-kept campground. The whole park is kept clean, litter free, and the restrooms with showers are clean. The setting next to the river with the trails are a great hike and the dogs enjoyed the walks as well. There was no traffic noise at our site, 123, which was next to the river. There is no river access here, the park sits above the river but the view is awesome. Did see some mysterious lights above the trees that I never did figure out what they were, so that was kind of neat. Possibly a drone, no sounds from the lights. There is camp wood available from the host, showers, recycle bins and rv dump available. Phone service through Consumer Cellular was available.

Prineville Reservoir Main Campground — Prineville Reservoir State Park
Clean, fun place
When we got there the place was nice. Unfortunatley, there was some major fires going around the area and we got some smoke the next 3 days. But, of course, that was not the campgrounds fault. It was too bad so we did do some biking, swimming and bar B Qing. The campground was full and clean. They say you can get 2 bars of signal on your phone, but no one there seemed to be getting any signal. I had a Star Link so that wasn't a problem for me.
All the sites seemed to have electricity, but not all had a dump. The camp host was friendly and helped me find where to dump the Motorhome. It was about 1.5 mi away at the upper level of the campground called Jasper Point. Steep and winding paved road that was fine for my 30' MH.
Simona M.ScoutBelknap Hot Springs Lodge and Gardens
Beautiful location
This is a very friendly campsite with a lodge on site, and 2 hot springs pools. McKenzie river flows right through the resort and it is more of a rafting than boating site. There are cabins, tents and RV sites here . Friendly helpful staff. Internet and phone reception very weak and only from Lodge not from the TV site.
Guide to Redmond
Redmond, Oregon sits at 3,077 feet elevation within Oregon's high desert, where daytime temperatures can reach the 90s in summer while dropping to the 40s at night. The area receives only 8-12 inches of precipitation annually, creating a dry camping environment with minimal humidity. The volcanic soil and juniper forests create distinctive camping conditions compared to western Oregon's denser forests.
What to do
Hiking at Smith Rock State Park: Just a short drive from Crooked River Ranch, hikers can explore dramatic volcanic formations. "There's a nice walking trail (Matt's Trail) that takes you around the campground along the canyon edge (level: easy). There's also a BLM trail (Crooked River Trail) you can access from the campground that takes you down to the water (level: moderate to hard)," notes Kelsey G.
Fishing at Prineville Reservoir: The 3,000-acre reservoir offers excellent fishing opportunities for crappie, bass, and trout. A camper at Prineville Reservoir State Park mentioned, "They have the best fishing dock and cleaning station that I have yet to see. We had great luck catching many crappie here which made great fish tacos for our Camp dinner."
Star gazing under dark skies: The high desert offers exceptional night viewing. "This is also a dark sky park and if the moon is not bright the stars are amazing," reports Amy B. from Prineville Reservoir State Park. Areas away from city lights provide unobstructed celestial views with minimal light pollution.
What campers like
Quick access to Bend: Many campers appreciate locations that allow easy access to urban amenities. "Only a 10 minute drive from Bend, Tumalo offers a sophisticated camping experience. Heated individual showers, clean bathrooms, and quick access to firewood are a big step up from the usual camping basics," writes Miguel C. about Tumalo State Park Campground.
Riverside locations: The Deschutes River provides popular recreation spots. At Tumalo State Park, "There's walk path across the street to the river and park which was fun to tube down in the summer heat," according to Nicole R., who stayed in one of the park's yurts.
Year-round camping options: Unlike many mountain destinations, several Redmond area campgrounds remain open in winter. "We stayed here in the winter in our camper van and enjoyed the electrical hook up for hearing and cooking inside our van. Only one loop of the campground is open in the winter and water is turned off at the sites except for one central location," explains Emma A. about LaPine State Park Campground.
What you should know
High desert climate conditions: The dry climate requires preparation. "This is high desert so sites are pretty much just dirt. Some have cool vegetation, grasses and even some sage. Scenery is still awesome and the lake it a lot of fun," notes Kelly M. about the Deschutes River Campground at The Cove Palisades State Park.
Fire restrictions: During summer months, many areas implement strict fire rules. A reviewer at Crooked River Ranch RV Park points out an important limitation: "no wood or charcoal fires. Only propane grills."
