I love this place. We had some loud neighbors this time around, but it happens. I was disappointed that there was no garbage cans available.

No reservations. This is a nightmare. Leave our campgrounds alone. Greed. Money hungry. Tons of empty sites. People don’t show up. This is a failure.

The camp host was very thorough in keeping the camp and restroom quite clean. He observed Covid distancing when approaching which was kind also. The camp sites need some attention with leveling. The road into Driftwood also needs attention.

The campsites were beautiful!! One of our best camping experiences. It does get windy at night in the fall so just gear for very cold winds is a must. It’s also pretty rocky so good supportive hiking boots or closed toes shoes.

General

  • This is a no water facility so campers will need to bring their own supply.
  • This campground is only suitable for tent camping since we cannot accommodate RVs or trailers.
  • Prevent the spread of invasive species by inspecting and cleaning packs, equipment and tires before using lake or trails.
  • Please Note: One vehicle per single site. Most sites can accommodate 1 extra vehicle that is not included with the reservation fee. Extra vehicle will be charged a per night fee and collected at the campground. 
  • Fire Restrictions: Fire restrictions may be imposed at any time due to hot, dry weather conditions, at which time campfires and charcoal fires may not be allowed. 
  • During your time in Central Oregon, you can find wildfire, prescribed fire and smoke information at centraloregonfire.org
  • Reserved Sites will be held until the day following your arrival date. Sites must be occupied by the checkout time of that following day to hold a reservation or the site will be forfeited and released to other guests. Once your reservation start date has begun, neither the Recreation.gov Contact Center nor the campground manager will be able to modify your reservation.
  • Refunds: Refund requests made through www.recreation.gov will be charged a $10 processing fee. This fee is retained by the reservation service contractor along with the non-refundable reservation fee. All requests for the return of the non-refundable reservation fee and the cancellation fee will be declined by the campground concessionaire as they did not receive these fees (these are the fees retained by the reservation contractor, a different entity).
  • Don't Move Firewood: Please protect Pacific Northwest forests by preventing the spread of invasive species. Firewood can carry insects and diseases that can threaten the health of our western forests. You can make a difference by obtaining and burning your firewood near your camping destination. Visit Dontmovefirewood.org for further information.
  • Click here for more information about Deschutes National Forest.
  • Camping or otherwise occupying a single location (including leaving camping equipment and/or related supplies) for a period longer than 14 consecutive calendar days is prohibited. ‘Location’ means the occupied area, the occupied campsite, and the National Forest System lands in the immediate vicinity thereof. Camping or occupying any location on all National Forest lands for more than 28 calendar days total during a calendar year is prohibited.
  • NO generator use is allowed in campgrounds. Silent power banks or battery powered devices are allowed.
