Enjoyed our camping. Nice sites with good spacing between camps. Beautiful Metolius river location. Worthy of a visit

Ponderosa pine forest next to a pristine river- what could be better? Clean, large site with partial view of the river. Walking trail passes thru riverside sites so expect hikers to pass by. We walked the trail downstream to the hatchery bridge. It’s scenic but doesn’t offer many places to stop, sit and relax or picnic along the way.

Very nice campground; be prepared for RV's which can be noisy because they have generators.

The site wasn't as close to the river as we expected from the map. It was next to the entrance to the campground but also next to the forest upstream without other campsites, so pretty private on one side.

- Reserved sites must be occupied by checkout time the day after arrival to avoid forfeiture of the reservation.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
