Accessible via Forest Service roads, China Hat Campground operates as a basic US Forest Service site within Deschutes National Forest from April through October. The campground accommodates RVs up to 30 feet and provides vault toilets as the primary amenity.
Located in central Oregon's high desert terrain, this established campground serves as a launching point for exploring the broader forest system and accessing nearby OHV staging areas. The Forest Service manages this site as part of the network of campgrounds around Deschutes National Forest, with Pumice Butte Road positioned 7.6 miles west for campers seeking additional options. The no-frills setup works well for self-sufficient campers comfortable with minimal facilities.
