This is a beautiful serene place. There is no drinking water here, but you can get that from Chimney Rock campground a short drive away

Went fishing here, didn’t catch anything but it was still nice. I never went in the bathroom, but according to a friend who was there with me, there were cicada wings on the ground. (I just thought that was interesting

Beautiful, clean, quiet& peaceful. Many campgrounds along this windy valley road. We're in a 33 foot motorhome and no problems manuevering or finding an empty site. There are restrooms however bring anything you need, this area is completely unattended during the shutdown, cell service and network availability is extremely spotty. For camp fire though youre in the woods, county does patrol occasio... Beautiful, clean, quiet& peaceful. Many campgrounds along this windy valley road.

For camp fire though youre in the woods, county does patrol occasionaly and even picking up wood thats down is prohibited. Fly fishing maybe get you something other than snags and lost lures but as i dont fly fish, thats all ive received. Roads are NOT MAINTAINED at this time and are extremely dangerous when freezing, also watch for rocks that slide onto road abd occasional deer. The campsites are all close to the road as it runs parallel with the river. This site is 18 miles from Prineville, and thats the closest store of any kind. Due to the corners its a good half hour or better drive in the current conditions, and my right foot is lead if thats any indication.
