OK spot along Smith River

The campground is right on the river. Good spot if you're in a pinch without reservations while passing through the area. Small day-use area and a handful of first-come, first-served camping sites.

Pit toilets only. No potable water here. Smith River is clean enough, so we filtered water from there.

I've stayed here twice on bike tours between Cottage Grove, OR and Reedsport, OR. It's a decent stop for touring cyclists who have minimal needs. We've never been bothered for camping here without registering.
