Sand Springs Campground

2 ReviewsAdd Review

Sand Springs Campground sits in open terrain within Deschutes National Forest, roughly 14 miles southwest of Brothers in central Oregon. Access is rough, so high-clearance vehicles are worth considering before the drive out. The site is free, allows pets and campfires, and gets cell service. OHV trails run nearby, though at least one recent visitor found the campground empty despite that proximity. Campers looking for a no-cost, drive-in base in remote high desert will find it fits that purpose well.

Nice Place

Good campground in a remote part of Central Oregon. Despite being right next to OHV trails, we were the only ones there. Just me, the boys, and the flies.
