Collier Memorial Campground

Burnt!! Just be prepared that this park was nearly destroyed during the 2020 wildfire season and it still looks pretty desolate. Now, with that out of the way, the campground itself was perfectly fine. The campsites have essentially no privacy from one another but I expect that is a side effect of the fires that has not yet recovered.

Now, with that out of the way, the campground itself was perfectly fine. The campsites have essentially no privacy from one another but I expect that is a side effect of the fires that has not yet recovered. We were within ear shot of pretty much all of our neighbors, but fortunately most everyone kept their voices down as a rule. The bathrooms and showers were well-enough maintained (it's a campground, expect camp showers). Firewood was being sold at a pretty good deal for how much you got, but that could change with time so I won't go into the details. One thing we were not expecting was the dust! Dust everywhere! Again, probably due to the fires, but just be prepared and don't bother wearing sandals or flip-flops or else your feet will get absolutely caked. We were staying for the weekend to go to Crater Lake and so didn't end up visiting the logging museum, but it looked very interesting from the road. Maybe another time. Also, the creek and river that meet in the park are EXQUISITE. I couldn't believe how crystal-clear Spring Creek was! Extremely cold water though, so be warned. Be nice to the Camp "Chicken"!!!

This was probably a beautiful campground before the September 2020 forest fire which destroyed the campground as well. There are a lot of chipmunks running around and we were told that they eat hood liners and sometimes have eaten electrical wiring. Many people leave their car/truck hoods propped up so the chipmunks can't sit on your engine/battery and eat the hood liner. The camp hosts are extrem... This was probably a beautiful campground before the September 2020 forest fire which destroyed the campground as well. There are a lot of chipmunks running around and we were told that they eat hood liners and sometimes have eaten electrical wiring. Many people leave their car/truck hoods propped up so the chipmunks can't sit on your engine/battery and eat the hood liner. The camp hosts are extremely friendly and helpful! The interior roads are somewhat difficult to navigate given trees and rocks that are close to site entrances. I watched several inexperienced trailer drivers struggling to get backed into their sites. The full hookup sites are paved and fairly level. If it weren't for the chipmunks I would give a higher rating but the whole time we were here I worried they were going to eat through our wiring. I tried led rope lights around our motorhome, I sprayed rodent repellent around our motorhome and nothing seemed to work. Some had electronic repellent devices in their engine compartments but not sure that they work either. They need a natural predator for the chipmunk problem.
