I have Access pass but it wouldn't work. Same pass worked fine today when booking one additional day, but not for this booking. Frustrated about that.

Nice campsites with grass sites. Lots of areas to have big gatherings or field games.
Showers are good just could use a set at the other restrooms

I enjoy this campground. Can always get a site and the sites are grassy.
The negative is only 1 of the restrooms has showers. Would love showers at the other restroom. If the campground is full you may have a bit of a wait.

Large site, friendly hosts. Many people wandered into our site to fish at river edge which was a little odd, but it had great access to the water and watching the little kids fish was adorable.

Most trailers and campers have a hose connection to flush out the black tank. The Schwarz dump station does not have a traditional hose connection so you can flush your black tank. It's an easy fix since there is water at the dump station.

I love this campground. It's clean and run well. The hosts are very nice and helpful. I wish it were open year-round.

This was our first stay at this campground and we enjoyed it! Very welcoming host. Spot #32 is near the water and close to a very clean bathroom with a nice shower. We were in town for a UofO DUCK Football game and hotel rooms are OUTRAGEOUS $$. Set up our campsite and felt very comfortable leaving and coming back later. The next day we took our E-Bikes out for a 20 mile ride around the Dorena Lake. With the mild weather of the PNW Fall we only wish this campground could be open through the DUCK Football season, and maybe even longer.
