    Redmond - Central Oregon KOA

    Pretty nice

    Only spent one night there, but enjoyed the stay. Many pull through spaces with full hookups and fire pit. Nice outdoor pool, playground, and the office/store was well stocked. Staff friendly on check in. Quite a ways from Redmond for shopping or restaurants, but a really pretty setting.

    Deschutes River Campground — The Cove Palisades State Park

    Fun Times!

    This campground has it all, except water. Although, the water is nearby & there's bumper boats! Electricity, running water, showers, a fire pit, picnic table, a campstore, & firewood for sale. We only stayed two nights, but we had a great time. We went to nearby Richardson Rock Ranch & came back to the campground in the evenings. We will be coming back.

    Tumalo State Park Campground

    Convenient camping stop just 4 miles off the highway.

    Tumalo State Park gets only 3 stars from me because it was hot and crowded. Since its only 4 miles North of popular Bend, Oregon, its a convenient stop... but what I consider "pit stop camping," on my way to quieter destinations. They have good campground amenities for this: flush toilets, running water, showers. Its a pretty location, near many fun outdoor activities near and in Bend, but the sites were too crowded together for my taste. Note that, as in most of Oregon in high summer, open flames and camp fires are prohibited. It is a Red Flag zone, meaning there is a high danger of wildfires. In fact, as of last week (late July, 2018) you could see the smoke from several fires in the surrounding forests.

    Deschute County Expo RV Park

    It’s Just Level

    With over a hundred concrete spaces, each with a grill, picnic table, water,sewer, and electric. But there’s more! Fantastic showers, laundry and friendly staff. This is one of the best stops if you are visiting Redmond or the Bend, OR area

    Tumalo State Park Campground

    Mainly RVs

    Showers, bathrooms, and running water are available. A tent site is $21/night with 1 car allowed. Additional cars are $7/night. There aren't any tent sites secluded from yurts and RVs, so you will be hearing generators run, though people did shut them off at 10. IMO, it's expensive for a tent site in a spot where you're surrounded by glampers.

    Ochoco Lake County Park

    Cute small campground - Dry Camping

    Cute small campground on a little hill overlooking a lake.  Tent sites by the lake's edge. 
    Very Clean bathrooms with code for campers. Pits for public areas. 
    Since there are no RV services be prepared to hear some generators running occasionally.  Quiet hours 10PM-7AM.  Water is available but may not be close enough for a hose to your RV.  Most sites have good Starlink view of skies.

    Olallie Lake Resort

    Correction

    There are a couple differences between the Olallie Lake Resort and its facilities vs The Olallie Lake Guard Station Cabin. Although near to each other on the lake, and both managed by the  resort staff, the Guard Station Cabin is owed by the Forest Service. They do not allow pets in the cabin or in your car when you rent it. 

    The resort rents a number of rustic cabins themselves, along with two yurts, and operates a number of nearby campgrounds, the store, and the boat rentals.

    The Guard Station Cabin must be rented from Recreation.gov , and has much less basic facilities, kitchen with hot & cold running water.  Propane powered stove/oven,  refrigerator , and built in lights.  Pit toilet nearby,

    I believe the other reviews refer to the resort's cabins.

    Pelton Park Campground

    Family campground on a fishing lake with amenities

    Generations of campers have stayed here, and if you have little ones, no doubt they'll want to continue the tradition. The park has experienced many improvements since the landslide transformed and closed it many years ago. Available to rent now are yomes (yurt domes) with bunkbeds and inexpensive lake view cabins with AC and heat. A swimming hole, playground and amphitheatre delight little campers, and a store/restaurant/rental business delight adults who run out of ice, beer, fishing tackle, or other necessities. Kayaks, paddle boards and other water sport equipment is available for rent. The lake is long and deep with Kokanee, Rainbow Trout and Bull Trout, but you'll need to make sure you purchase an Indian permit (available at the store) if you want to fish for them. Take a trolling boat up the narrows to the back of Round Butte Dam in the morning and rev up the engine for a mile of skiing area near Pelton Dam to cool off in the afternoon. This is a PGE park with on-site camp hosts and regular visits from the local law enforcement. You'll feel safe camping here solo or with your children. Quiet time is politely enforced. There is a community kitchen available for cooking or washing dishes and clean flush toilets and shower facilities are on site. Electrical hookups abound, even if you are tenting, you can bring an extension cord to recharge, light, or cool off your campsite.

    Redmond - Central Oregon KOA

    Beautiful Views

    Redmond/Central Oregon KOA is such a beautiful place to come and camp. The views are incredible, and is one of the reasons why I really enjoy this place. You get views of the Cascade Range anywhere you look, it seems like. You can see Mt. Hood (one of my favorites!), and Mt. Jefferson. If you love to hike, I would definitely recommend this campground as well. Smith Rock State Park is driving distance away, with incredible hikes as well as rock climbing. If you rather spend the day on the water, you can drive about 15 minutes and hit the Lake Bill Chinook. This is where the Deschutes and Crooked Rivers meet. This is great for boating and any other fun water activities. The campground itself is really nice. They have a pool (which was always crowded), and they also have a place where you can rent bikes and petal-kart rentals. My family and I did this one morning and had an absolute blast. They also have a great place for your pets! When we were there they also had a little ice cream place, which was delicious! The only downfall I would say is that it is pretty close to the highway, so at night we did hear cars/trucks going by. It is right off Highway 97. Someone said there is a dump station close by? We thought maybe that is where all the noise was coming from. Other than this issue, we loved our stay because of the hiking and water nearby.

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."
