The river and campground were beautiful as always.
I have been camping on the Metolius (various campgrounds) for 50 plus years and have seen some ups and downs. It seems to me the current 'down' is people making reservations and not showing up. I have never seen Lower Bridge so empty during my week there. There was plenty of people driving thru looking to find a spot but they were posted as reserved....
There are many hikes along the river and beyond for all ages and abilities. My favorite is from Lower Bridge to Candle Creek on the west side.

We come to Lower Bridge Campground every year, usually towards the end of July. It's a family event, with folks coming from California and Washington. As Oregonians, we coordinate the details. Once again this year, we had a wonderful time. It is so very special to be with family along the Metolius River. We feel very pleased that the Lower Bridge Campground is so well cared-for. It's a very special place. We're already looking forward to next year's... camping along the Metolius.

The campground is great. Site number one is not. Very narrow and my rig is only seven feet wide. Please convert it to a back-in site.

Great spot with a buce, wide view of the river. Perfect for a pull-through.

Campsite 1 is the most scenic and overall fantastic site but tight for a camper/RV/trailer with trees and a slope.

Each year since 1996 I have camped in Lower Bridge. It has always been great.
The last couple years I have tried to dispose of my trash in the dumpster only to find it is nearly impossible to open the lid. It would take Superman to simply lift up the hatch. It is a different style than in past years. What message is this sending to campers? There are many senior citizens like me who are conscientious about disposal of trash. I'm mystified.
