About
National Forest
Willamette National Forest
Overview
Campers Flat is on an open river terrace below Forest Road 21. This small campground is a group site situated in a beautiful setting under Douglas-firs and Ponderosa pines. The dynamic Middle Fork of the Willamette River almost eliminates the sound of traffic passing along the road.__ Popular activities are fishing and hiking, or mountain biking the Young's Rock Trail, which ends on the other side of Road 21 from the camp.
Recreation
This campground is ideally located for hikers, mountain bikers, and equestrians. The Middle Fork National Recreation Trail can be accessed just outside of the campground, as well as the Young's Rock trail. Chuckle Springs and Indigo Springs offer other opportunities nearby, and in the right season fishing is available in the Middle Fork as well as the nearby Hills Creek Reservoir.
Facilities
The campground has one small communal bathroom and regular trash services.
Natural Features
This campsite is located in a beautiful grove of Douglas firs, pines, and cedars. The Middle Fork flows along the side of the campground, and Chuckle Springs and Hills Creek Reservoir are short drives away.

Best Group Campsite
This campsite is a campers dream. There is 5 campsites, campsite 5 is the best area to camp, it’s littered with trees everywhere. There’s enough space for 5 cars to be parked & about 4 tents can be placed in campsite 5. Overall there’s enough space for around 50 people and 10 cars. Water is provided so no need to bring water bottles. The river is so nice, with areas to swim littered everywhere or just grab a river tube and float down that river. It feels so secluded besides the cars that pass every here and there. There is no service whatsoever here though, and the nearest town is a 40 minutes drive so pack wisely. There is a trail across the street you can walk, or there’s a trail in campsite 5. Once again this place is amazing and I’m not sure why there isn’t as many reviews as their should be.

Beautiful River View
This is a good campground to stay in the summer months. There are only a few spots available. All the spots are right on the river which makes for an amazing nights sleep!
The main road is right behind the camp which can be noisy at times but the River helps with that.
Young’s Rock trail is just across the road if you’re looking for a difficult hike with ‘1400 elevation gain.
