Beavertail Recreation Site

We stayed during the busy Memorial Day weekend and we were lucky to grab a spot, albeit in full sun. It was pretty hot, but we cooled off in the water, which was a quick walk away. Some of the sites are huge, some shady, and a few back right up to the river. The evenings cooled down quite a bit and the night sky was amazing. No connectivity at all, and the road to get there was bumpy gravel, but pretty easy even for our small RV. IT’s an investment to get there, but worth the trip.

Nice, quiet campground on Lower Deschutes.

Here is what you need to know: 

- last half mile into camp are rocky and bumpy. Low clearance cars/motos, use caution

- water from pump takes a little work to get started, but once going is plentiful and tasty

- overnight trains are going to startle you at first

- can be very windy at night, make sure to stake your tent

- very clean vault toilets and dumpsters

- pick up after yourselves and leave this place cleaner than you found it please

Enjoy!

I don't know about everything the site says it has but here is my experience. 

Great spots on the river. Kinda limited shade. A hand pump potable water source. It's dry camping so no dump on site, no electricity so bring a generator if you're rv camping. We went in June and it was in the high 90s.
