Best Tent Camping near Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest

The Boundary Campground located in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest in Oregon is a great place to go for a quite getaway. It is located on Bear Creek Road. This campground wasn't busy when my family and I went which was really nice. It almost felt like we had the whole campground to ourselves. There really isn't many campsites- I believe there are only 8. I'm assuming this campground isn't well known by people, which again is really nice because you can escape the craziness. The campground itself is pretty basic- each campsite has its own picnic table and fire ring. It is pretty cheap to stay here as well- only $5 per night. We had a Northwest Forest Pass and were able to use that instead of paying the $5 fee. There is a great hike that is nearby called Bear Creek Trail. This trail does run along the river, which makes it great for fishing. My family and I hiked this, and stopped on our way back to do some fishing. They also have trails that you can ride your horses. We actually saw a few people doing this when we were on our morning hike. Overall, I thought this was a great place to camp. We really enjoyed the peace and quite. I feel like during the summer months most campgrounds are super busy, so it was really nice to experience a camping trip that was not overly crowded.

Wile road tripping to oregon from Los Angeles, we stopped here for the night. Relatively affordable, very clean, and not busy (at least while we were there). You can walk down to the river to fish, where there were also RVs camping on the beach. Tent camping is limited to very few sites but it looked like there was plenty of rv space. We set up for the night at the tent sites where we had a nice dinner with a beautiful night sky above us. The river is a good fishing spot, according to some local fisherman we met in the morning following our stay. There were bathrooms but they were locked. We had good service though. The site we chose wasn't particularly hidden or private, so anyone driving in or out of the road to the river, whether that's someone launching a boat or a ranger checking fishing licenses, they will have a full view of your entire site, something to consider if you require privacy.

Its a nice little campground. I think its a little expensive for tent camping at $15 a night. Also the out houses are kinda weird. They aren’t normal USFS pit toilets, they are out houses.

Me and my daughter did some tent camping here in August.

  We got massive space in the trees overlooking the lake, quite private. 

 Some of the larger spaces are quite open for tents, but everyone seemed to be having a great time.

 Great family camp ground. and near the town of Shady Cove for groceries. And not far to Crater Lake.

Nice place.

We were down in Southern Oregon for the Caves.

 We stayed in the Heron loop which was the smallest and most primitive, It was wonderful and we had the whole south of the lake to ourselves. Firewood here is not bundled and since it was off season we got a huge amount for$5. The hosts were terrific. This was a wonderful quiet stay.

 Will always be back.

This year it was pretty spendy for a tent site $24

This campground is always clean. Nice flush toilets make you want to use them even if you have an RV! We’ve tent camped and brought our camp trailer. I’ve been going for ten years. Awesome trail! And it’s right on the river. Campsites are pretty well spaced out and there’s always a spot available!

relaxed atmosphere and reasonably priced for car and tent camping, plus camping fees include access to the rejuvenating sulphur-rich hot spring pool, swimming pool and sauna. this is right in the Ashland/Medford metro area so is very convenient for travel days when you have things to do in town. also hosts interesting events like yoga classes and live music!

Enjoyed tent camping along the river. Small trails lead you down to the trail from camp site. Very clean campground. Camp host Kevin was wonderful and full of information about the area. Had fun playing horseshoe that was in the campground. Loves that they had fire buckets out through the campground so fired can be put out completely. Definitely will be coming back.

This is a great place to stay that has all you could need! Cell reception, WiFi, pool, hot tub, Ashland is like 5 minutes away, restrooms, even a sauna! Clothing is optional in the pool area let at night so be aware if you’re not into that or have kids. tent sites aren’t separated meaning you pitch your tent in an area where everyone else does. Other than that, I Highly recommend!

This is a nice county park on the banks of the mighty Rogue River. Tent sites, RV sites and even a Yurt or two. Close to the town of Grants Pass for shopping or whatever yet quiet. The stars shine and you can even see the Milky Way at night. Fishing is grea on this stretch of the Rogue and a favorite spot towatch the white water races over Memorial Weekend.

we love coming to lake selmac to use the yurts for winter camping. theyre heated and cozy. weve probably camped here a half dozen times or so over the past couple years, including standard tent sites. the kids enjoy the fishing and i love the view across the lake. we will probably be back again later in the year when the weather turns back to cold and rainy.

The pools are nice to soak and the general vibe is good. The campground is old and worn down which I don't mind much, but it is junky feeling. There are many long term residents with lots of junk in their spaces. Some are decked out with a creative spirit other are just garbage. The playground has lots of old degrading riding toys and tent camping is basically a field. We had an RV site with partial hookups and it was barely maintained. We ended up leaving a day early.

Three stars for the pool on its own.

Wonderful park and delightful hosts! Clean toilets; open 730am-900pm during summer, and 8am-8pm other times. The RV faces a wonderful park. There’s a nice trail to walk or run around the park, and also by the river minutes away. There are 2 spaces for tent camping, and 11 available RV sites and all are pull-throughs but one. And if you don’t have either a tent or camper you can rent the 5-person yurt with bathroom and kitchen (but no stove, just microwave.) There are stores, a hamburger joint and a coffee shop just down the road; in fact there’s a 24-hr mini store you’ll drive by on your way to the RV park.

We were leaving crater lake and needed a place to camp. usually we hate going to rv parks because they are loud and, no offense to anyone, ritzy. we like the rugged road camping in the woods. but this was the exception. we got a tent site, which are cheaper, and the area we were in was for tents only. therefor we were one of two people there. the bathrooms were within walking distance and we had a view of the lake. it felt very safe because there was a trooper shack and we saw them every hour of the day making sure everything was okay. we then found an awesome walking path beneath ground level and against the water. it was truly amazing.
