Summary

AI generated

Indian Ford Campground offers a great location that is quiet yet close to downtown Sisters, making it easily accessible. Campers appreciate the spacious sites and friendly camp host, as well as the peaceful surroundings among the ponderosa trees. However, some facilities are in need of maintenance, and visitors noted road noise and dust, along with a lack of water on-site.

We enjoyed the location, quiet but still close to town. We did have to leave the camp when it was closed due to the fire near Sisters in July, but the camp hosts and the fire people were timely, informative and attentive to the whole situation.

It appears that little or no effort is put into this place. We had a table that looked like it was ready to collapse, and yet there was perfectly good table, sitting out in the woods off the walking path. There was an old dumpster laying on its side that looked like it had been there for years. The sites were as basic as you possibly could get.

Good location, easy to get to by vehicle, big, flat sites. Beautiful area. Friendly host. The trade-off for easy access by vehicle was the road noise.

The sites here were really spread apart; aside from the highway noise, the campground was very quiet. We liked being so close to Sisters, Suttle Lake, Camp Sherman... it's a great spot!
