What a lovely campsite! Our site could have fit multiple tents, and it was nice to have extra wiggle room. We loved walking along the river with our pup, and we will definitely be back again!

Never saw the camp host. Not once in 4 days. He was there to fish with his buddies and had no interest in doing his job as a camp host. We brought water, but needed to refill our reusable water container, but absolutely could not find water anywhere in the town nearby. Had to wash the dishes in our melted cooler water!

Pit toilets were ok, not too stinky. The campsite was lovely. We just would have liked to see the camp host once in awhile, as we wanted to buy firewood & ask for recommendations about sources of water.

This campground is centrally located for activities in Sun River, La Pine, and twin lakes. The river was gorgeous but still much too cold to swim in even in August. The campground was quiet which is suprising given its proximity to the highway. The camping spots are spaced out enough to provide privacy. The whole campground was well maintained including the vault toilet. This campground is definitely only for those who aren't looking for creature comforts. We look forward to returning again next summer!

This campground is beautiful and well kept. Great for taking wildlife photos and enjoying being present in nature. The location of the campground provides plenty of activities like hiking, biking, swimming, floating, and fishing. You can take a short drive to any of the nearby lakes and take advantage of the activities they provide as well. We highly recommend Little Lava Lake. We were in the first campsite. It was very spacious for the two of us and could easily fit one more big tents or two more smaller ones. The site was a little ways away from the main road and you can definitely hear the cars that pass by during the day, but there are so few at night that it doesn’t cause a disturbance while you’re sleeping. There is no running water at this campground so be prepared and bring your own fresh water to drink and hand sanitizer for the vault toilets. This campground provided a great vacation spot for us and we’ll definitely come back again!
