Beautiful old-growth campground. We stayed there on our way to eastern Oregon. The sites on the river are first come, first serve. B loop, where we stayed, can be reserved. Excellent separation between sites. The park was largely empty during the week in mid-September.
Best to have a smaller camper, the roads are tight in places. We did not have much road noise but you'll definitely notice the train on the other side of the river at least twice during the night.
Oakridge, about 7 miles away, is a small town with basic services. We enjoyed the trails in Greenwaters Park. The Buckhead Nature trail in Westfir was a bust. Not maintained and overgrown.

We were especially grateful for the rebuilt amphitheater. This kind of upgrade is very important for our annual church campout.

So close to the road, tons of yellow jackets. We left early.

This was one of the most beautiful campgrounds I’ve ever stayed at. My site (70) was incredibly private.

This is a wonderful campground. The river was nearby and many people were enjoying getting in it. The vault toilet was clean and the water spigot was nearby. There was good spacing between sites providing privacy. People were quiet while I was there. My only complaint was the difficulty I had finding my site - #72. There were no signs directing me and I spent a lot of time winding through everyone trying to find my site. Finally, I asked some people and they were able to direct me.

One of our favorite places to go. Great escape not too far from home. Beautiful place, heavily wooded and very clean. Always enjoy our stay there.
