GuideHappy Campers
Great spot to camp with a quick drive to Smith Rock. We had fun hiking many of the trails within the area. Several TH right next to campground. Very quiet and peaceful campground. The cattle in the morning will sing to you at their feeding time from their near by ranch. Our site had plenty of space to spread out along with shade in the hotter point of the day. It was in the upper 90s. We had beautiful sunsets each night.
GuideBusy for march
Drove down for a while and all sites had been taken. Lots of tires and random planks of wood
GuideGreat low cost camping
No electricity, no water, no dump station but very quiet.
