This is a hidden gem, as it is on a hill above the highway. There are 10 level full hookup sites and some tent sites. It is a great stop for a night while passing through, or longer if exploring the Hines/Burns area.

Quiet rv park on a hill with nice views. This rv park is basically a parking lot with full hookups. Website shows lodge with restaurant. Lodge is closed as is restaurant. Website shows outdoor games and fire pits. There is no outside games sitting out nor fire pits. There is green grass around the closed lodge/restaurant where you can walk your dog. The sites are long enough for any size rig and... Quiet rv park on a hill with nice views. This rv park is basically a parking lot with full hookups. Website shows lodge with restaurant. Lodge is closed as is restaurant. Website shows outdoor games and fire pits. There is no outside games sitting out nor fire pits. There is green grass around the closed lodge/restaurant where you can walk your dog. The sites are long enough for any size rig and plenty of room for tow vehicle. There is not much room between sites, but enough to sit outside. There is nothing outside for kids at campground. Nice place to relax for a night or two.

Great little camp and rv spot just off the highway. Although just between two main roads, it's surprisingly quiet and peaceful and has a nice view. It has 10 well spaced rv spots on gravel with full hookups as well as a few tent sites. Unfortunately the lodge/restaurant became a COVID casualty and has been closed for a couple of years. But the gas station just a short walk down the hill has a con... Great little camp and rv spot just off the highway.

Unfortunately the lodge/restaurant became a COVID casualty and has been closed for a couple of years. But the gas station just a short walk down the hill has a convenience store and diner. Great website for booking a spot and great communication by the management during my stay. Will definitely swing through again some time.

We stopped her for one night while traveling between Bend and Ontario. The campground has a row of 10 pull-through full-hookup sites and an area for dry camping, all located on the edge of a huge gravel parking area around a large restaurant (the restaurant itself is currently closed). When we pulled in, there was a free-standing whiteboard that listed who was in each site (and thus which sites... We stopped her for one night while traveling between Bend and Ontario. The campground has a row of 10 pull-through full-hookup sites and an area for dry camping, all located on the edge of a huge gravel parking area around a large restaurant (the restaurant itself is currently closed). When we pulled in, there was a free-standing whiteboard that listed who was in each site (and thus which sites were available), but we’d picked our site (site 7) online so we already knew where we were going to be. Other reviewers said they backed into their pull-through spot because the lane behind the sites is narrow. We scoped it out when we got there, and while it was a tad narrow for making the 90-degree left turn into the site, we were able to do it with our 37-foot fifth wheel without any trouble, despite the small trees on both sides of the back of the site. Be aware that the site numbers are only really visible from the front of the site, so it’s a good idea to make note of your site location before you go to pull in. The hookups are in a standard location, and their presence, along with a large white cement block, mark the border of your site. We did put a board under our door-side camper tires to help us level a bit. There was plenty of room to park the truck in front of the camper. The trees were just a little taller than the camper, so we only got patches of shade. Not every site had a tree nearby, which is something to keep in mind in the summer given that each site - CORRECTION, some sites - only have a 30amp connection to power any AC units you might have. Despite being an overnight campground, there are a few places to hang out. There is a picnic bench and fire pit behind the full hookup area, and another beyond site 10 that overlooks the valley. There is also an outdoor covered porch with seating behind the restaurant, and next to that a grass lawn with a horseshoe area. There are also lush grass areas on the sides of the restaurant, which was where we ended up walking the dogs. There is a small dumpster for trash and a porta-potty adjacent to the full-hookup sites. I don’t know why the restaurant is closed - it looks like it’s in great shape - but apparently there’s a decent fast food joint within walking distance just down the hill next to the gas station that has breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu items. In terms of cell service, the best speed I got on my Verizon Jetpack with MIMO antenna was 69Mbps down and 11 up, so streaming video was not a problem. The best speed I got on my AT&T smartphone was 60Mbps down and 10 up. We would stay here again if we needed an overnight spot in the area.
