Site # 28.
Excellent stay close to the river. Very quiet campground with ample space on our site with all basic amenities.
Very convenient location in the wilderness, accessible via a paved road to the camp. Afterwards it's a gravel road for about 12 miles, good and easy for all types of vehicles. But we preferred to bike it upstream to its end. <<<<<<<<<<

The best campgrounds I have stayed at by far, very clean, quite, peaceful, beautiful cedar trees, and the relaxing sound of Selway river.

We've been camping at O'Hara for 20plus years. Never gets ol always can count on clean and tidy camping areas. Even though no host the area is maintained nicely and all campers are respectful of each other and the area.

Trash pick could have better and the Reservation system was not working on our second visit.
Wonderful place, we will be back!
