Rocky Point Dry Camping

We have been camping here for years. We just spent 6 days on the roads rafting and camping. We love this place. There is no shade and no hookups. Very nice and peaceful area. We love the Galice area and will return year after year.

Rogue River

We stopped for the night on our way through during a work trip. We stayed in our van wick makes everything nice and easy. To our surprise we fished in the evening and in the morning without seeing anyone else. Nice quiet spots along the river. Most have camp fire rings. The Rogue River is beautiful we will be back!
