Sherwood Campground

Awesome location! Great spacing between camp sites. We will definitely return.

Beautiful area with a nice little hike to Tamanawas Falls nearby. Campsites were nicely spaced out and had plenty of shade from all the trees (they protected us from the rain too). I read somewhere that there was supposed to be a freshwater tap in camp, but we could not find one, so best bring your own water for drinking and cleaning purposes. It is worth mentioning the highway very close to out campsite (site 16). While you could hear cars and see headlights occasionally, it was not all night long and the creek does a pretty good job of adding some white noise to cancel out the sound of the road. Overall a great camping trip, I would go again.

We stayed at site 16. We were roughly 15-20’ from the highway. We heard trucks, cars, and semis all night long. There were points where it sounded like a helicopter was above us (because of how loud the logging trucks are). We also had headlights illuminating our tent all night. We didn’t have any neighbors, which was nice. No one stayed because of the noise/light at nighttime. There was a fire restriction when we stayed which limited what we could do. If I was just rating the camp host, he would receive 5/5 stars. He’s super nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. People also treat the field near the site like their off-leash dog park, despite there being multiple signs stating dogs most be leashed. I don’t think there’s a site in this campground that is far enough away from the highway to be enjoyable.

Nice Campground, though not a lot of privacy between sites. Several sites, including ours, are right next to the hwy and while the cars became white noise, it is hard to tune out the logging trucks which begin their hauls right around dawn. Road noise is minimized closer to the river. The host was terrific and he runs a tight ship. Bathrooms were well stocked and clean, garbage picked up regularly, rules were enforced, bear warnings given when necessary. We enjoyed his jokes, too!

There was a guest stranded in the space we had reserved but the camp host, Cliff, helped us find a first come first serve spot right on the creek. He was very helpful and we had V a great two night stay!

Stayed here the last two nights. First off, the camp host is excellent. He checked in each evening but wasn’t intrusive. I gave a 3 star for the overall campground. Good location for hitting the local hiking trails and was very clean, but with limited services and the location right by the road, it was just okay. The trucks passing on Hwy 35 overnight felt right like they were passing right by your head. If you stay here, I highly recommend sites 1-7 or 14-16 which are by the river.

This is a lovely spot, although closer to the road than I had expected. The river is nearby, hiking trail down the road. Pretty peaceful. Would go there again.

Note this campground is for prepared campers/hikers only, which I am Why ? You only have a water spigot & Vaulted toilet. There is no store are facilities near. That said: You are in the right place if you are here to hike trials on Mount Hood East Face and other wonderful trails that are only a mile away. It's a small campground so reserve early. Pick your campsite on East Fork River for absolutely a wonderful way to wind down your day
