Great campground on the most lovely river.
You must bring your own water.

Wonder campsite private with views of the Metolius river. The trail along the river was beautiful only 1/2 mile from the hatchery can’t wait to return

Really beautiful campsite , #14.
People walking through the campsite on the trail .
Pit toilet near campsite a tad stinky.
When full the campsites did not offer much privacy.

Overall this is a beautiful and well maintained campground. Being right along the lovely Metolius listening to the water at night makes this a great pick. The stars were also super bright. Be aware that the river trail does go through the campsites along the river. This does make it convenient to hike along the beautiful trail. Recommend heading down a bit to the nearby fish hatchery. Campsite 8 is very close with no separation to campsite 7, which was great for us and our friendly neighbors, but some campsites have a bit more privacy. The vault toilets were clean.

Allen Springs #’s 12 & 13 are the best with great views of the river and plenty of space. Spent a week there with dear friends

Be aware that the river trail goes right through everyone's site, a few feet from you. People could take the campsite road during that small portion of trail to give campers privacy, but they do not. Also, there are loud RV generators to ruin an otherwise gorgeous place.
