Breitenbush Campground

CAMPER SUMMARY PRESENTED BYFord

Breitenbush Campground, near Detroit, Oregon, is a charming spot tucked away in the Willamette National Forest, perfect for those looking to unwind in nature. With its scenic riverside sites and towering Doug Firs, it’s a great place to kick back and soak in the beauty of the outdoors.

This campground is known for its peaceful atmosphere, especially after dark when the noise from the nearby road fades away. Visitors have enjoyed the lovely views of the Breitenbush River, with some sites offering direct access to the water, making it a fantastic spot for fishing or just relaxing by the shore. As one camper noted, “It’s pretty peaceful after 9 PM... liked it here during the week.”

Nice campground

The campground was great in general, but still being worked on from fire damage. Our site specifically had a bunch of freshly cut down trees in the back which was a little sketchy with our little one, but still great. Loads of blooming flowers and trees and the river is beautiful.

Breitenbush

Found this little gem last minute because everything was PACKED at Detroit. Thankfully a couple were heading out while we were coming in. The campground is clean and we had a cute little cove behind our camp site.

Walk in secluded campground

Walk in campground. Secluded area with limited cell service. Limited spots for tents. Trails are not clearly marked. Access to water near the end of the trail and you must cross the river to access the warm springs.

Crystal clear waters

The river near the campground is crystal clear and great for fishing. Several amazing swimming holes just down the road. primitive and not ideal for small children, otherwise, a great private camping spot.
