The Best Camping Near Idleyld Park, Oregon

This is a place that the locals go to swim in the summer. We love to swim here. The campground includes eight campsites and several picnic sites surrounded by an abundant forest of fir, maple and oak trees. Not recommended for large RVs or trailers. There is a swimming hole at the bottom of the 10 foot waterfall.

Love this place

We stayed in campsite 1 down closest to the river. The bathrooms were up the hill. It now has 10 campsites. The view of the falls is great. The water was a little cold for me but the kids loved it. The sites are rustic. No water or power and no flush toilets. But it is quiet and beautiful. There were some locals using the swimming hole with us. The camp host was great. The camp grounds is 15 miles from Glide up little river rd.

Great swimming hole

Well maintained campground. Spaces are spread out with lots of privacy. Few spots with views of the creek though. Spot #3 looks the best by the creek. There aren’t many camp sites, so plan ahead and reserve a spot. 

You camp here for access to the swimming hole. There is an awesome pool below the falls. We loved swimming in it! 

Awesome swimming hole! 

I loved staying at this campground we were able to have lots of space from the other sites. The camp host was amazing and the day area was far enough away that even the closest site couldn't here the visitors. This is a very popular spot on weekends because of the swimming hole and cliff jumping so keep that in mind. We loved our time there and everyone was incredibly nice
