the camp site was right on the Metolius river, spacious and clean, pit toilet clean and plenty of paper. Quiet, beautiful and restful.

Beautiful camping right next to the river. Good amount of separation from the campsites adjacent. We look forward to returning next summer.

We loved that it was a small, quiet campground - no RV's. Toilets were always clean. Easy access to river trail. Staff that maintained the campground was very friendly.

We wanted a quiet campground next to the river. This tent-only campground was perfect, with no generators or motorhomes. It is rustic, with no water, but We filled up on water the next campground down. We were in spot #5, which does not have shade in the afternoon, so plan accordingly. Right on the river trail to walk as far as you wish along the river. Clean bathroom, clean campground.

Hands down the best campground we've stayed at in Oregon. Quiet, large spaces that back right up to the water. The children had a wonderful time dunking in the river, riding bikes up to the fish hatchery and to the General Store and I've never slept so well in a tent my entire life!
