Summary
O'Hara campground offers a beautiful and peaceful setting, enhanced by cedar trees and proximity to hiking trails and the Selway River. While there is no potable water on-site, visitors appreciate the clean environment and scenic views, with many returning for family outings. Some concerns were raised about facilities, including the need for a camp host and improvements to the water situation and bridge access, but overall, guests enjoyed their experiences.

We have been going to this campground for years. And we love it. It is so relaxing and calming. The only thing we would really like is if the out houses were updated. They are in very bad shape. But the campsites are nice and most are shaded which is wonderful and so are the berries. We also ride our atv up the road for an outing, looking at the beautiful river and finding a swimming hole. The gas situation isn't good. There is no gas in Lowell. You have to drive up to Kooski for gas and groceries. There is no cell service in the campground. But there is a wonderful cafe in Lowell and their milkshakes are great and so is the food.. Also for those who have children there are pools in the river on the campground side made with rocks. Some are deeper than others but the kids really have fun in them.

no camp host someone took our spot, bathrooms terrible, terrible, If you don't offer all the services why charge the full price? some state generator running for a long time each day, did not need that
overall 0 rating mostly because the web site reservation system sucks pond water

Campground has lots of shade and has easy access to the river. Many opportunities for berry picking, fishing, playing in the water.
Drinking water is available at several places in the CG. The ranger station 2 mi down the road has water and a dump station (thank you!).
