This is such a hidden gem off the Dechutes River - perfect for kayaking, floating, or stand up paddle boarding. The float around the entire campsite takes only about 20 minutes, but so peaceful and relaxing. Its very easy to put in, go around the bend, exit the river, cross the small road to the other side and do it all over again.
A couple sites have huge pull through driveway, while others are on the smaller side. We took our 27 ft travel trailer and had plenty of room. Yes the road going in is all dirt forest road, but we just went slow and had no problems.
Like other reviewers, we too noticed that all the sites were booked for the entire week, but 3-4 sites were a no show. Super frustrating when you have to plan your camping trip here 6 months in advance. I don't understand why people can't just cancel their reservations and give other people a chance to enjoy this campground.
Verizon service coverage is excellent, we were even able to work remote/use Zoom at times using our hot spots with no issues.

Bull Bend Campground has lovely large campsites with lots of privacy...the road getting to the campground is a bit sketchy and I wouldn't bring a trailer. The one drawback of this campground is that there is no fresh water source with exception of the river.

Camping here is such a treat! I left four stars because our campsite, #2 didn't have a fire pit which is listed as an amenity. The metal grate was missing and it was a huge bummer. All the other sites had one from what we could tell. Aside from that the river access it top notch and floating around the campground was super relaxing. It's a beautiful location. Google maps took us to the wrong spot. We had to get back onto the paved road and go another mile or so further till we saw a sign for Bull Bend.
