When I was looking for a camping site a few months prior, it stated that all the sites were taken so we went with campsite #2. The campsite was fine, but there were multiple people coming in and out looking for sites when all of them were reserved, yet no one showed up to over half the sites that were supposed to be reserved. When discussed with the campsite manager, they shrugged it off and didn't really say anything about it. This deterred a lot of people away, on an already challenging place to go to, and meant that cars were coming and out and turning away all day, each day. Also, the bathroom was disgusting and was covered in flies, making it impossible and unbearable to use. I also highly recommend not allowing generators and limiting RV use. The parking for each spot does not accommodate large RV's which made it almost impossible to go around the turnaround, and there were people who were using generators literally all day long-this definitely killed the mood of camping in what could have been such a beautiful experience, given the location.

This is a beautiful little campground on the Deschutes River near La Pine. It even has great cell coverage. Bring your own water.

After coming here for 25 years - we discovered crawdads for the first time. Always beautiful and perfect for floating. We plan to keep coming for the next 25 years.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
