This turned out to be a favorite of ours, lush and shady and quiet and easy access to water. Day use folks came and went each day and were pleasant neighbors as we stayed as an extended family gathered from all over in the group site. Bathroom was as clean as a vault bathroom can be, water provided by a single spigot and pump. We had an RV with us and had no trouble maneuvering in and out, but for RV’ers this is a dry camping scenario. Recommend this location for groups looking for a pleasant place in the hot summer - tree cover and immediate access to the South Santiam made this a delight when the weather was too warm for my comfort.
We just returned from a fantastic weekend where we used about 6 of the sites. Site number three is by far the best with a really nice river view, a large site, and two picnic tables. All of the sites can hear the river so we slept like magic. I’m only rating at four stars because 4 to 5 of the sites were either overgrown or very small that they would only fit a two or four person tent. Had we shown up with a bigger group, I think we might’ve been disappointed. We had a great experience but i’ll have to think through next time whether the value is there for only using about half of the sites. Having privacy and not having to deal with any other campers was pretty freaking awesome though and definitely worth paying more for.
We rented the entire site for a group event. My understanding is that you can only reserve if you reserve the whole site. Park patrol that came by was very friendly. We had live music for a larger get together of family and friends pre-covid and nobody hassled us! It is a good spot where you can make some noise without being a nuisance to anyone. The spot was very clean when we showed up and we were careful to leave it as clean as possible. Thank you to the service out there for making this a no-hassle, awesome camping event for us!
I think there are only two sites to camp. Both incredibly isolated. This is not camping sites nearby were all where you are camping right next to another camping family. The closes group is a quarter mile away and the road is a bumpy mile away. We had a make shift rock fire pit and plenty of space.
It's great for a big group. No curfew, no noise complaints, great access to water for fishing or swimming.
