Great campground with lots of shade for hot days. My only complaint would be that the water was not drinkable unless you don’t mind yellow water!!! Fairly close to other campers, but everyone was really friendly and our kids made some good friends. Beautiful hikes nearby and the creek was really pretty (and very cold). Would definitely go again!!
On 11/17/24 I found some prescription sunglasses on the trail and left them attached to the campground message board.
Nice campground with lots of shade. Pit toilets were OK. There's a hand pump water source. Interpretive trail. Check out the 1.5 mile trail-of-use going along Lost Creek downstream (NW) from the campground, it gets vague at a gully just outside the campground but after that becomes very clearly defined - and gorgeous, with thick layers of moss and huckleberries plentiful. Has fallen trees over it so have to climb over those. Lots of dispersed camping nearby.
Gorgeous campground! My only problem is that the campsites feel a little crowded in comparison to all the space they have there. The bathrooms were really clean (for a campground anyway), and none of them are a terribly far walk from the sites. The creek is really cool though, and there's a nice nature trail at the campground. And going past the walk in sites (through the picnic area) there's more trails that go into the wise old forest there. I liked it, but I think next time I'll pick somewhere closer to civilization.
this is a small, very pleasant campground in the woods, but why the hell does the Forest Service close this on Labor Day? Don't they know that September is a pretty nice month in Oregon?
