Beautiful natural forest campground

This a lovely forest campground with good spacing between sites. Most sites are right on the river providing a very serene forest feel. A very nice hiking trail takes off from the far end of the campground toward Union creek and runs along the river.

Beauty and People

This is a great campground, very beautiful, but very busy. Off highway 62 take the Natural Bridge turn off and follow the road to the campground. The sites are for the most part secluded from each other and most are along the Rogue River with a mix of sun and shade. All sites have picnic tables and fire pits. There are also multiple outhouses throughout the campground.

Keep in mind that though the sites near the water are awesome, there is a heavily used trail that runs right along the river so you will have multiple hikers walking near or through your amazing campsite. We had site 6 and though it appears to be the best site (large and nearly fully enclosed) it's not because the trail runs at the edge of the spot and you will have loud hikers strolling right through your space.

The hiking nearby is great. There is a loop hike which takes you to the Natural Bridge area which is really cool. There is also a hike to the Rogue Gorge that takes you through another campground further up. On top of the busy trail along the campsites there is also areas where people hang out to swim or fish so you can hear people nearly all day long. It was nice the first day and night during the week but over the weekend it got a bit ridiculous and we left. There are large garbage cans for trash service but no water and no recycling. There is also no cell service from ATT, Verizon and TMobile.

Off season this place would be great but we strongly suggest not going on a weekend or busy season unless you like people noise constantly all day.

Beautiful campground near Crater Lake

My wife and I stopped here after visiting Crater Lake. This campground is right on the Rogue river and is absolutely gorgeous. The sites are well maintained, and there are toilets. The “Natural Bridge” is a short walk away and is really cool. Lots of informative signs along the path to describe what you are seeing.

Excellent dispersed camping

This NFS campground is located on the Rogue River. Sites are very dispersed and full of Redwoods with river at your back. Doesn’t get much better than this for tent camping.

So peaceful!

This is one of our favorite go-to places, but be prepared there are no reservations! It’s a small area with 17 sites right on a lazy part of the Rogue. Beautiful hiking and site seeing. 10/10 recommend

Camping by the river

Stayed here for two nights in late May and it was lovely! The campgrounds are fairly close together and our neighbors were a bit loud the first night. But it was nice right next to the river! Just a short hike to see the natural bridge and many trails up the mountain. Awesome fire pits and lots of trees!
