What Guests Are Saying

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.

Great place to boondock.
Sites are very separated so you have a lot of privacy.
Recommend.

Great site. You can hear the highway from the campground, but it’s not a deal breaker.

While I was there another camper got the tent and sleeping pads stolen.
Road noise from Hwy 22 terrible.
Moved after first night.

Spacious, quiet, woodsy but no ultra-dense woods. Very close to Sisters, OR for stocking up or taking a walk through town. While it is close to the road, it is not on the road and there is sufficient forest between the site and the road to create privacy and to block most of the noise. If you are looking for 100% noise free, this site is not for you due to the road. We loved the gentle background hum of cars driving by (although we could not see them at all).

A group of us went and was a short weekend trip so we just sat around enjoying each other’s company. We did not get out to see much but the camp grounds were very nice and we had a great time.

General

  • This is a no water facility so campers will need to bring their own supply.
  • Prevent the spread of invasive species by inspecting and cleaning packs, equipment and tires before using lake or trails.
  • Please Note: One RV with tow vehicle per single site or one vehicle per tent 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.
