Amazing - but close to wildfire
We went to the campground to check in to our beautiful site on the river but the smell of smoke was so overpowering. We drove to service and realized the wildfire was very close and we would be just outside the evacuation area. We played it safe and cancelled. So sad we couldn’t stay, it was such a clean and beautiful campground!
Best campground in McKenzie
Book early for this one. It is right on a running river, with the greenest tree canopy. Every site is spacious, clean, and has a view. Plenty of places to hike and walk around. Not far from McKenzie Market for their restaurant and live music.
Dreamy river white noise sites!
One of my favorite off of phone signal spots! Love watching the American dippers “dip” under this Bombay sapphire colored McKenzie River. The bottom loop spots are to die for!
