What Guests Are Saying
Pine Rest Campground offers a beautiful, quiet setting by the Metolius River, ideal for fishing and hiking, with spacious campsites surrounded by large ponderosa pines. Guests appreciate the campground's proximity to the Camp Sherman store and the scenic hiking trails, though some note that the trails lack proper signage and that the fire pits could be improved. Overall, it’s a beloved spot for camping, with great river access and a peaceful atmosphere.

I stayed one night in site 6. There's a short walk (50 feet?) into the site from the car parking spot. You can pitch a tent pretty close to the river and enjoy the sound of the water all night. There's no host in this campground, but the host from another nearby campground appears to check the outhouse, etc. It's tent only and my campground neighbors were very quiet. But one should note that there are several cabins/homes on the opposite side of the river which may produce some light and noise into the late evening as they sit out on decks talking facing the river or getting in and out of cars. None of that went super late and all was quiet by about 10 p.m. All the sites are on the river. 1 and 7 are pretty close to the road, but the road was not that busy.

Lovely location. We were right near the bathrooms and it seems they were only cleaned once while we were there, which was pretty smelly. Otherwise this area is one of our favorite spots

It was great to camp in a tent only campground. It's a beautiful location along the Metolius River and there are great hiking trails.

beautiful riverside location. Tents only with some walk in sites a great idea.

Since this is one of only two campgrounds that is open year round, it's a great place to go off season if you feel like getting away and don't mind dealing with some cooler weather. Site 1 is my preferred site since it's really secluded, although you don't have a direct view of the river.
