Tumalo State Park, just a short drive from Terrebonne, features comfortable yurt accommodations that blend rustic charm with modern conveniences. These round canvas structures include queen beds with mattresses, heating for year-round comfort, and electricity for charging devices. The Cove Palisades State Park also offers premium yurts with enhanced amenities including private decks overlooking the scenic reservoir. "The yurts were surprisingly spacious with real beds and heating that kept us cozy even during our October visit," one guest shared. Both locations provide easy access to shower facilities, fire rings, and picnic areas, creating a perfect balance between outdoor adventure and comfortable lodging. The Redmond - Central Oregon KOA complements these options with deluxe cabins featuring kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and climate control systems for glampers seeking additional comfort.
Smith Rock State Park, visible from several glamping locations in the area, provides spectacular hiking and world-class rock climbing opportunities for adventurous guests. The Crooked River Canyon rim trail offers dramatic views and wildlife spotting possibilities just steps from luxury accommodations. According to a camper, "Being by the canyon is peaceful and scenic. The Terrebonne area provides a ton of hiking activities with Smith Rock State Park just down the road." Stargazing is particularly memorable from the private decks of many glamping units due to minimal light pollution in the region. Many locations offer seasonal packages that include guided adventure tours, farm-to-table dining experiences, and exclusive access to private hiking trails. Winter visitors can enjoy heated accommodations while exploring nearby Mt. Bachelor and Hoodoo ski areas, making this a year-round glamping destination.

ScoutThis 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.
TravelerTumalo 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.
TravelerShowers, 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.
GuideCute 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.
ScoutThere 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.
GuideGenerations 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.
GuideOnly 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.
TravelerOne of the nice perks about Sisters Creekside Campground is the hot showers. In the past, showers were free and the facilities were OK, but they've recently been renovated and they're much nicer. The downside is that they now charge $1 for a two minute shower. Showers are only open from 7:00am to 10:00pm, which is understandable for the camp host's schedule, but after a late night at the Folk Festival, a midnight shower would have been lovely.
The camp host said that most people spend $3-$4 to get an adequate shower. I take quick showers and have easy-to-wash hair and I spent $1 to get fully showered and shampooed. I thought it was fair, but heard some grumbling from friends who like longer showers.
The new design doesn't solve the problem that there is no dry place to put pants on without getting the cuffs wet, because the whole room has a wet floor. Bring a minimum of stuff - there are two hooks and a spot on top of the small coin box, as well as a tiny cubby in the wall that a bar of soap will fit into.
The camp host has change available until 6:00pm, and there is no change machine, so get change in town or from the host before dinner.
Bathrooms are well lit and maintained, although they are quite noisy, 24/7.
There is a new dish washing area just outside the bathrooms that has two deep sinks and a nice counter. It seemed to get a lot of use throughout the weekend, and I'm sure it cuts down on the number of yellow jackets and other pests.
Yellow jackets were present in the campsite, although not in as many numbers as in western Oregon this year. Due to changes in weather, Oregon has had a record year for yellow jackets and wasps. (In Eugene, for example, one hardware store that normally sells 75 yellow jacket traps a year was out of stock after selling more than 750 traps - it's that bad.) Don't leave protein or sweet stuff out in the open, and be careful when picking things up off the ground.
One of our campers left her cooler outside and it had a lift-off lid. She returned to find it opened and her food mostly eaten, with wrappers and trash strewn about. We suspect raccoons. I had a cooler in my tent though, and had no visitors.
Camp Hosts expect you to check in with them before you setup, even if you've prepaid for your site.
Another new addition is free wi-fi. The host gave us the code when we checked in. We had no trouble getting a strong, consistent signal at a good speed.
This year when we went, the RV's were confined to a separate, but connecting area. No loud generator noise!
The sprinklers come on between 11pm and 1am, and they cover one of the bike trails into the campground, as well as the main path to and from the bathrooms. There is a way around, but you have to look for it.
The campground is a perfect distance for biking or walking to downtown. There is level dirt surface for tenting, with a pine canopy, open enough to see stars if it's no too smoky.
Note that the last few years there have been multiple fires in Oregon and it can get quite smoky as a result. In 2017 smoke from the fires was so bad that the campground was closed and the Folk festival was canceled. This year the smoke was not as bad as last year but definitely in the air. If you're sensitive to smoke, check the air quality before you camp anywhere in Oregon now.
The upgrades to the campground have improved the camping experience and I think the free wi-fi makes up for the cost of the showers. For a city campground, this one is comfy and close. It's near the highway, so it's not real quiet, but if you're visiting Sisters, it's a good option with some upgraded amenities.
ScoutOnly 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. With the Deschutes River running through the park, there are also plenty of outdoor activities available. I had a great time, but make sure to bring warm clothes though--it can get pretty cold!
Located in central Oregon's high desert at an elevation of 3,000 feet, Terrebonne experiences hot summer days and cool nights, with temperatures often dropping 30°F after sunset. The area sits near the convergence of three rivers—the Deschutes, Crooked, and Metolius—creating varied terrain for camping from canyon rims to riverside sites. Winter campers should prepare for below-freezing temperatures, while summer visitors often contend with dusty conditions at dispersed sites.
Hike Matt's Trail at Crooked River Ranch: Follow this relatively easy walking path along the canyon edge with access to dramatic viewpoints. "There's a nice walking trail (Matt's Trail) that takes you around the campground along the canyon edge. There's also a BLM trail (Crooked River Trail) you can access from the campground that takes you down to the water," notes a visitor to Crooked River Ranch.
Fish at Prineville Reservoir: The park offers excellent crappie fishing with dedicated cleaning stations for your catch. One camper reports, "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," making Prineville Reservoir State Park a productive spot for anglers.
Explore the Tam-A-Lau Trail: This 7-mile hiking path starts directly from camping areas and provides panoramic views of Lake Billy Chinook. According to one reviewer at The Cove Palisades State Park, "There is a great hike, the Tam-A-Lau trail, that goes right from the campsite" offering access to high desert landscapes without needing to drive.
Dark sky stargazing: With minimal light pollution, the area offers exceptional night sky viewing. A camper at Ochoco Lake County Park notes it's "Perfect for stargazing in meteor shower" conditions, making it an ideal location for astronomy enthusiasts.
Proximity to town amenities: Many camping locations provide a balance between wilderness and convenience. "Only a 10 minute drive from Bend, Tumalo offers a sophisticated camping experience," explains one visitor to Tumalo State Park Campground, which provides easy access to urban conveniences without feeling urban.
Varied water recreation options: From calm paddling to motorized boating, the area offers diverse water experiences. "The lake was pretty when full" and "there's opportunity for hiking, fishing, kayaking, canoeing, and slower boating" according to Ochoco Lake visitors, with most water recreation sites offering beach access within a short walk of campsites.
Fire restrictions vary by location: Some campgrounds prohibit wood fires entirely. At Crooked River Ranch, "no wood or charcoal fires. Only propane grills" are permitted, which is important knowledge for meal planning.
Shower facilities often require quarters: Bring coins for pay showers at several locations. A camper at Crooked River Ranch mentions, "You needed quarters to take a shower. I don't carry quarters and usually only use them for laundry but add the shower fee to that it was easily 6-8$ in quarters."
Seasonal closures affect availability: Many campgrounds operate on limited schedules. Deschutes River Campground at The Cove Palisades State Park is "mid-May through mid-September" only, while other loops remain open longer, making off-season planning crucial.
Look for educational programs: Some parks offer ranger-led activities specifically for children. A camper at Prineville Reservoir notes, "The educational programs are outstanding! The amenities are well cared for and the surroundings are incredible!"
Consider cabin or yurt glamping near Terrebonne: These provide comfort for families with young children. "We stayed in a yurt here and inside was a sign in book with a lot of fun adventures shared from other travelers. There's walk path across the street to the river and park which was fun to tube down in the summer heat," shares a visitor to Tumalo State Park.
Check for dedicated swimming areas: Some parks provide designated, safe swimming zones. At Prineville Reservoir, "There is a large grassy area, big roped off swimming hole" though "it can get blazing hot" and there are "a few stickers so wear river shoes for swimming."
Watch for sloped sites: Bring leveling blocks to compensate for uneven terrain. A reviewer cautions about Crooked River Ranch, "If you are bringing an RV or travel trailer, I recommend bringing blocks for your stabilizers as some of the sites have a decent slope to them."
Consider reservoir view sites: RV sites with canyon or lake views often require specific positioning. At Crooked River Ranch, "Loop D, 5-14 are actually pull throughs but the map does not show that. There was a fire road that runs behind these sites that makes them pull throughs and quite easy to get into."
Book well ahead for summer weekends: The most popular RV sites with hookups fill months in advance. One camper at Deschutes County Expo RV Park notes, "Everything around is full. There is a special exhibit nearby that people travel to. We felt fortunate to be able to find a spot."
