Silver Falls State Park Campground

I think they call this the Gem of Oregon State parks. It's kind of a magical place. You drive through rolling farmland and have no idea this forested oasis teeming with waterfalls is here. 

The sites are pretty private, but there were quite a few loud campers when I was there and no one was enforcing quiet hours.

The hikes to the waterfalls were the reason to visit this park! So many beautiful falls. 

Definitely put this on your bucket list.

Very nice campground. Spots have a paved driveway and all seem to be relatively level. Private free hot showers! Right next to the ten falls trail loop.

Beautiful place. Wish we could have stayed more days.

Camp site was crowded, but still nice. All the amenities.

This is a gorgeous state park, absolutely worth the visit even if you're just coming to the day use area. Amazing hikes, the main one being the one with 10 waterfalls - dogs aren't allowed on this one though and it takes about 3 hours to hike it, so heads up on that.

There's a nice off leash dog area, but it's not fenced in, so heads up on that too.

The camping area is a short walk across the highway from the beautiful day use area. Cabins are really nice and well-maintained, and there is ice and firewood for sale at the entrance shack. THere's also a dump station and water for free.

Awesome campground. Well maintained. Site spacing is good with lots of privacy between camps. Bathrooms and showers are super nice and clean. Roads and campsites are paved and level. Short drive or hike to the falls.

What can I say? Silver Falls is a magical place and everyone should experience it.  You can just get lost in the beauty of it all.  The cabins are small but comfortable with heat, lights, and beds.  Covered porch is nice to sit and listen to the rain.

This was one of my favorite established campgrounds I stayed at on my roadtrip through Oregon. The big trees are perfect shade and beautiful. The roads are perfect for biking and there’s a bike trail in the campground that leads you straight to the park. Bathrooms and showers are clean and well taken care of. There is an incredible trash and recycling center at the front of the camper ground. Campsites can be decently close to one another, so not secluded but that wasn’t an issue for me. Obviously with family’s there’s going to be noise early in the morning and late at night so just be aware of that. But I didn’t mind, and wish I could have stayed here one more night. Something I was also pleasantly surprised by was how the trees blocked excessive heat. There was a heat wave going on during the time I was there but I didn’t have a problem at all here. It was such a relief.

Came to Silver Creek Falls fir 3 day family union, from Montana. Never seen such a beautiful area. Planning on coming back for a visit to relation and would love to camp fir a few days would like fees, length of time for tent area, shower, bathroom?

Rv sites were quite private for a state park. Loved that the campground was within walking distance of the Falls. Clean bathrooms, easy to use firewood and ice purchase and super friendly camp hosts

This is a beautiful campground with nice, shaded campsites. I was planning to stay a few days and hike to the waterfalls, but with an AQI in the unhealthy range, I will be leaving tomorrow. I hope I can get back here some day.

I was finally able to make it out to this spot. The sites were clean with plenty of restrooms and showers. There are a couple of loops with many sites. Reservations are recommended as the sites fill up fast. Keep an eye out for cancelations; that's how we managed to book our site. There is a nature loop in the campground and Ten Falls is down the street.

Great camping, lots of shade for tent campers. Flushing toilets, showers clean. Multiple camp host. Reserve a spot !

Very nice state park.

Came in to the campground and was able to find our campsite quickly. 5 minutes after we had parked, a very nice ranger stopped by and greeted us; asked us a couple of questions about our reservation, checked us in, and shared information about the campground. We purchased firewood using the automated pay machine. We visited the trail of ten falls starting at the South Falls Lodge, which is less than a 5 minute drive from the campus ground. Great visit, super quiet campground; lots of trees; make sure to reserve your site well in advance; this site is usually full. Water and power on our site. Clean bathrooms and showers.

Went in Winter and it was cold, wet and had surprise snow! Nice open spots, cute playground - showers and flush toilets. Dumps ration is a couple miles away. Great access to water falls.

Great park! Waterfalls were raging after all the storms!! Downside is that dogs are not allowed on the majority of the infamous Ten Falls loop.

Campsite had TONS of spots available when we were there (midweek during a storm) with no reservation needed.

Sites were good (only downside is very little privacy). Paid $19 for rent only site. Had electric/ water hook up sites too. Hot showers, clean bathrooms. Had picnic table & decent space. Had good cell service here but not in other parts of the park so download maps before you leave the campsite!

We stayed in the B loop since A loop is closed for winter. Campsites are well spaced and large. Campsite is an easy walk or short 2 minute drive to the south falls.

Big bang for the buck. Many trails, many waterfalls, well laid out so even though crowded you get to enjoy your space. Definite must see.

Even though there were no signs about the specific campground, thankfully I bypassed the “closed”agent building and followed the signs to the campground. The host is very sweet and her voice calmed my nerves. The campground is well kept. You can purchase firewood from the host. The showers was ONG fantastic. The water got piping hot, just the way I like it! This is a busy area with many families. I had water and electrical hookups. I used my 110 volt cord. This is one of the best campgrounds I’ve stayed.

Went with my boyfriend and his dad on the weekend. It was busy but still a nice walk. Not too long.

We went to silver falls for a day trip it was nice we walked the mini hike

Standard campground with privacy surrounding the sites. We had a full hook up site and everything was great. The greater park is lovely and you can walk to the day use areas and other hikes from the camp ground but it adds on lots of time/miles. We had a dog so could only do the rim trail but that leads you up to the only swimmable falls in the park. Will for sure go back. 

The visitor center and day use area has great swimming and there is a concession stand as well.  Would frequent if I lived in the area.

The usual state park backdrop to park a car and pitch a tent. What this campground has going for it is the surrounding hiking trails, and its proximity to Silver Creek Falls. You have to drive from the campground to the actual waterfall hikes, but it's a great jumping-off point.

Ranger was super nice, campground is very clean even the bathrooms. Spots are pretty close together so you definitely hear your neighbors (we had a crying baby neighbo, not fun). Short walk to the creek and short drive to the main water fall hike

Because of its reputation and close proximity to Portland, Silver Falls gets a lot of visitors. Many of them are not experienced campers. So have a little patience with others if you decide to camp here.

It sure is pretty. The biggest downside is that dogs are not allowed on the main waterfall hike. But there is one beautiful falls--Upper North Falls--, a very short hike, where dogs can go.
