We were there for only one night but enjoyed the camp. Has clean privies and a cool hand powered water pump. nice stream running through campground. Would definitely stay again.

Decent campground, not a ton of tree cover between sites but decent amount of distance so that was nice. Sites are pretty good size with ample parking. Flush toilets and cold running water in the bathroom. Only complaint was the camp host wasn’t around most of the time the 3 nights we were there. Bathroom ran out of soap on day 1, toilet paper on day 2. Otherwise a good spot!

Quiet, shaded, space between your neighbors, available water (via a pump), great accommodating camp host.

The camp host was a helpful, pleasant, and knowledgeable fellow who was quick to offer help if needed. The US Forest Service patrol was informative and polite while ensuring fire safety. The campground conditions were excellent, as they always have been in my experience. The only qualification is the Southern pit toilet was near to capacity. I spoke with the camp host who said the contractor had been notified, but was waiting for the pit to fill a bit further. Sooner is better (albeit not less expensive) when it comes to evacuating the pit toilets, in my opinion. Thank you for the fine stewardship of our public assets.

Pit toilets at Cold Springs were in bad shape - need to be serviced. No dump station at CS. Camp host did not know where a local dump station is. Parking spaces are shallow from the road - blocked with logs and rocks. Visit / hike Smith Rock a must do.
