Lower Bridge Campground

Our visit was wonderful as usual. I do believe the FS should remove the rocks on the RV door side of the sites as these are a safety hazard. Additionally we noticed that the camp host was not staying on top of sites that should have been marked available due to “no show” reservations. Maybe someday when there’s more money in the budget you can level the sites a bit.

Great place to camp.

This is a beautiful campground set in the Ponderosa Pines and along the river. We’ve stayed here many times and enjoy the solitude and friendly campers. The bathrooms were clean, well maintained and stocked with supplies.
Unfortunately, we had two disappointments: (1) our picnic table had a huge (8 x 11”) burn most of the way through the table. Made it difficult to utilize the table fully (2) the trash cans were overfilled and trash was strewn all over the ground where squirrels were carrying it off. This was not dumped for 2 days… it was an eyesore near our campsite and it smelled.

We camped here for only one night and we loved it. We had camp site 59 and we were the only ones on that side of the campsite it was awesome and so peaceful. And the camp hosts were so incredibly nice and very helpful!! Such nice people! I highly recommend this site.

The river sound was beautiful.

Lower Bridge Campsite is an excellent campground. Many of the campsites are right next to the Metolius River. It's a beautiful campground.

Lower Bridge campground on the Metolius River near Sisters, Oregon is a magical place. The river is close. The campsites are spacious.

Love the spot for 30 years now, had to rate only four star due to no water available. And it took the toilet overflowing before they managed to finally get it pumped out. But thanks to Dani for pushing to get it done!

One of the most beautiful places in the world! Some, if not most, of the campsites are not level. Make sure you keep this in mind and bring enough blocks, etc. if you have a trailer or RV.

We love this campground because: it's right on the Metolius River; has direct, walking access to 4 sides/directions of river trails; big, beautiful trees; lots of birds; (mostly) large sites; and is quiet. We've been mostly during the "shoulder" seasons of late spring and early fall (avoiding heavier use season). Nights can be cold but do-able.
