This was a perfect overnight cot-tent site for me on a long car trip. No showers and no flush toilets, but tent and RV spots are far enough apart to get good privacy compared to a crowded campground. Nice and clean while I was there. Lots of trees; so, not that good for star gazing, but the trees were plentiful and beautiful.

A great camp site with spacious sites, a quiet atmosphere, and only a few miles from Sisters.

This campground was a great base camp for our short exploration of Sisters and Bend. I was really grateful for all the shade the trees provided during the heat wave that happened. The camp was quiet. The camp host was friendly. The hand pump for the water was lots of fun for my kids and it was nice to have cold water when it was so hot. With the springs running through the campground I thought mosquitoes might be a problem, but they weren’t bad. We’ll definitely stay here again.

Wonderful campground, private well spaced sites set amid towering ponderosa pines. Helpful camp host. Pit toilets, water spigot. 4 miles from sisters, Oregon. Wide variety of activities near by, hiking, boating, rock climbing , shopping, cultural and more.

Very nice quiet campground. Camp host had left for the season. Signage at the campsite billboard was not very helpful, as it contained no info about rates, especially for senior pass holders and extra vehicles. Pit toilets were serviced daily. Overall, I was happy with the site and would definitely consider it the next time I am in Sisters.

Loved this place. So many beautiful trees everywhere. Had I known how short my site was I would have picked another. I scraped my rig a bit on a tree trying to back in. Overall, beautiful quiet campground in October. It did get below freezing so be prepared if you come in the fall.
