Not my favorite, but could be

I usually stay at Cedar Grove nearby, but stayed here this year (2020). The campground is clean with water sometimes available. There is spring water near milepost 7 when the pump in campground is not available.

I believe they might make this a paid campground next year (there is a proposed site fee, but fot the last several years it has been free.

The sites are roomy with nice tent pads and picnic tables. There are lots of trees around, so not great for solar, but there are some open areas.

The sites are walk in with well maintained paths. There is water access and good catch and release trout fishing. You can also catch salmon in the river, but I have not tried.

The Molalla Recreation Corridor is definitely one of my favorite camping areas. Within a short drive are many local favorite swimming areas. Ivor Davies wayside (around milepost 5 is beautiful and popular).

The area was hit by fires this year, so not sure what the corridor looks like at present. It has been closed off since September 8th. The fires reached milepost 7, I believe, and this campground is at 3.5 miles.
