"Family and pet friendly, you will have direct river access to The Rogue River and its brilliant blue waters."

Very well maintained, clean and professional
Several off leash dog areas.
Wifi only available in a few locations."
RangerThis beautiful camp ground is a must! They have Cabins and camp sites available. I would advise reserving far in advance. The park and sites are well taken care of and a wonderful environment for a peaceful stay with hot shower facilities and restrooms.
Family and pet friendly, you will have direct river access to The Rogue River and its brilliant blue waters. Located down it's own little valley, this gives it the seclusion you are looking for and the access to town, if needed, only about 20 minutes away.
This camp ground is well worth any drive you may have to take to get there. Gorgeous!
LegendThis county park just outside of Grants Pass along the Rogue River is a good overnighter because it is convenient and inexpensive.
It’s $20/night for the tent/ non-hookup sites, $25 for water and electric (30 and 50 amp), and $30 for full hookup. Group camp is $60 and there’s a $5 per add’l vehicle fee.
There’s also a yurt but we didn’t see a cost listed for it.
The park also has FREE hot showers (trick to turn hot water on is to turn the old coin op knob). There is a boat ramp, dog park, and kid park adjacent to camping area. Park takes cash payments at kiosk near the entrance.
The place seems to be a local’s camp as some sites looked more like homeless camps with tarps and and array of stuff laying about. We did not feel unsafe here and everyone minded their own business, were quiet and kept to themselves. The hosts do make frequent rounds throughout the park and offer firewood for sale at $5 for 10 pieces of wood.
We stayed in our 26ft RV in the tent area as it was cheaper and less crowded and we backed up near the river. There is a lot of road noise especially from the road across the river. The roadway within the park is paved and sites are paved or gravel with grass surrounding. All sites are fairly level and have plenty of room. More trees in the hook up areas; the tent areas had few trees and was more open. Picnic tables and fire pits also at every site. We would stay here again if traveling through and needed a place for the night. We stayed here 2 nights during a weekend while waiting for an appointment in Grants Pass.
There are dumpsters here as well as trash bins throughout the campground, but no recycling.
Walkup sites available for that night only, or you can make online reservations 3 days in advance.
Good cell reception with AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon.

LegendDo Not let the close proximity to I-5 keep you from staying here. We are on B loop and while outside the traffic noise is audible, it gets lost in the wind through the trees. Southern Oregon is currently in a extreme drought, so absolutely no open fires are allowed. Still many access points to get to the Rogue River abound. Full hookups Great campground
TravelerWas set to Harvest Host (dry camp) at a delicious brewery in Grants Pass, OR, for a one-night stopover, but area temps were a scorching 102 degrees. With only solar, it would have been uncomfortable for us and unsafe for our dogs, so we chanced it and scored a one-nighter in the F loop (electric and water only—AC was a necessity until the sun had long set!), thanks to the kind help of a camp host passing by on his quad! F-06 backed up to a field between the site and the Rogue River. We slept wonderfully! $39 for non-Oregon residents. It was a GIFT!!!
Pros:
Cons:
GuideClean, easy access, river close by, and have everything you need. Right off I-5 and close to town of Rogue River if you need food or supplies.
GuideCampground directly situated on the banks of the Rogue River. Owner/host was very friendly and customer minded. Campground was almost full. Sites are guite close to each other. But a nice and guiet place to stay.
GuideOur GPS took us to the Union Creek Forest Service office. If you're looking for this campsite, watch for the campground signs on Hwy 62 that say "Wayside". Further in, you'll see a sign that says Union Creek.
For clarity on the features there are only 3 FHU sites (reservation only) with sewer that are separated from the main campground and nearer the road. They were sloped and not private. There is no central dump for the other campsites.
We travel in a Class B van but saw lots of tear drop, Scamp/Casita, truck campers and tents. This campground is not well-suited for large RVs.
We dry camp and usually don't reserve in advance so looked for first come sites. When we visited the early fall, there were plenty of both FC and reserve sites available. The camp host was super friendly and flexible. We extended our stay twice over the week and saw a good amount of turnover each week day of the sites. The camp host made sure they were spotless.
We will definitely return to this campground but only in shoulder seasons. We suspect that in peak season, it can be loud, crowded and not as enjoyable.
