Cold Springs Campground in Sisters, Oregon was fantastic, We even cancelled our other reservation in Camp Sherman to stay longer at our site at Cold Springs!
The camp hosts Drea' and Jason were fantastic and were there to answer questions and made us feel safe and welcome!

Thank you!!

I absolutely loved this campground. The sites are big, the trees are awesome, the creek and water pump - adorable. The only thing not so great is the latrines - they could definitely use an upgrade.

Sadly could not actually stay because of the Bedrock Fire starting a few days before. We didn't know about the fire and the intense smoke until we were about an hour out heading south. I wish Recreation dot Gov had a system in place to alert folks with reservations when hazardous situations like such happen. Surely an automated system would be easy to implement if linked up to the NWS or INCIweb. Hope to stay there eventually, it looked nice.
