Great place to enjoy the Umpqua River!

This is a great find! The lower loop has no hookups and it is definitely made for smaller rigs. I was sweating it to get our 30ft 5th wheel out of there! The upper lip has hookups and is easier to maneuver for larger rigs. The day use area is nice. Rocks in the river are super slippery! Nice Frisbee golf course. 5 yurts for rent also. Fairly good shade. Showers cost to use.

Hidden Gems

This has been a favorite campground even for those who do not disc golf. The ability to be surrounded by water with views from all over the campground make it easy to escape any crowd and find the peace you need.

One night stay

Stayed for 1 night on the way home. Pulled in with out reservations and there were plenty of spaces. Looked like most everyone staying there has been there for awhile. Found a great spot over looking the river. Maybe tough for bigger rigs as there are a lot of trees to navigate around. Great safe quite spot.

Well maintained camp with easy river access.

Great campground! Clean showers and nicely maintained campsites with easy access to the river. We went in April and the campgrounds were practically empty save one group of people.

Pretty, popular campground near Roseburg, OR

This lovely county park campground near Roseburg offers trees, shade from the summer heat, and scenery, but I'm giving it 3 stars for being crowded and somewhat noisy. I admit I was there during peak season, and spent only 1 night, but found that my tent site lacked privacy, and the structure of the gravel road and pull-ins was such that almost every site (except for 1 perimeter drive) was subject to regular vehicle and foot traffic. There is a large yurt for rent on one end of the campground, constructed on a spacious deck overlooking the creek. It appeared to be handicapped-accessible, but as I stood admiring it, I could hear traffic noise from the highway. In between my campsite and the Campground Host's was a camper full of kids in their tweens, who started roaming the small campground after 10pm, making loud, obnoxious noises and laughing hysterically at themselves. When this went on for nearly half an hour with no intervention from adults, I did shout "SHUT UP!" at them after they passed my site and seemed to direct a shout at my tent. They stopped after that, but I hated to be That Person. There were flush toilets, running water, and showers. Bathrooms had neither soap nor paper towels or a working blow-dryer for your hands, so be a good scout and go prepared!

Lots to do!

Large park with tent spaces, rv hookups, and yurts! Oak grassland doesnt provide very many bushes to hide behind, so absolute privacy is hard to achieve when the park is busy. Sprawling and varried disc golf course with some spectacular long shots, and tight trees. Play structure for the little ones, boat ramp, waterfront sites on the renown North Umpqua river (great fishing and swimming), shower facilities (lots of bathrooms, some flushing, some pit toilets).

Great place to just get outdoors, without being too far from stores and humanity.

Fun in the sun

The kids played in the river. Watched people playing frisbee golf on a world class course. Had a good night's sleep almost no noise. They now have 3 hurts, one overlooks the river in the newer camp area and the other 2 overlook the old camp area. They have a boat ramp and the fishing is good here. It's halfway between Roseburg and Glide.

River

Beautiful campground on the river, if the spots at the end are available snag them! So easy to add a few more extra tents since there is a huge grassy area between you & the river.

Pretty nice group site

I camped here with a big rafting group. This is a pretty nice campground right next to the river, with plenty of trees to hang hammocks, tarps, and clothes lines. The group sites didn't have showers or flush toilets, but there was a building not far away with both. I didn't see any places to dump gray water, which I thought was odd. But great access to the beautiful N. Umpqua!

Nice clean campground next to the river

We really enjoyed our visit here. It's clean & our space was right next to the river (just a very short walk down the hill). Our space 41 was easy to back into & set up. The campground host is very nice & helpful. There is a playground for the kids & a very nice disc golf course. We will definitely stay here again.

Ranger review at whistlers bend county park with Goal zero lighthouse 250 lantern

147 acres. 50 sites 14 are power. Large area for group camping. They have 2 yurts. Disc golf rated number 2 in nation. child play area and free parking for campers. You can apply for a veterans card and camp free. The fishing is great and they have a boat ramp. I would recommend this place, but if your in the group area it can be a little noisy. The goal zero lighthouse 250 really lit up the camp site. And it charged my phone. Would definitely recommend goal zero products.

Whistler's Bend

I was touring the pacific NW and spent the night here after visiting Crater Lake. It was a low key campground that is good for a relaxing night. The bend in the Umpqua River allows tubers to float around the park with only a short walk to put back in upstream. The facilities are nice and the shower was warm. I'm glad I stopped for the night!
