A convenient place to spend the night. It's basically right on highway 395, so you won't waste any time getting to or from the campground. We stayed here one night after visiting John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. The sites are in two clusters. The first cluster is right as you drive in, close together, and close to the highway.

It's basically right on highway 395, so you won't waste any time getting to or from the campground. We stayed here one night after visiting John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. The sites are in two clusters. The first cluster is right as you drive in, close together, and close to the highway. The sites in the second cluster are much more spread out, and generally father from the highway. (Note: The road to the "farthest away" sites actually curves back close to the highway again.) When we stayed here (Aug 2020), we were the only ones in the entire campground for the night. The highway was nearly dead at night, so noise wasn't a problem. We found our site to be both serene and beautiful. Fortunately, we had our own bathroom in our camper. I checked out the outhouse near our site to see what the facilities were like. Unfortunately, the moment I opened the door I was assulted by a massive swarm of flies or something. I took off running and didn't look back.

The campground is quite large as it is spread out with pull/back in spots to pull through sites. Fire rings and handicapped accessible toilets and sites. :) They recreational skiing, sledding, hiking, camping, rallying around the canyon, and wildlife viewing.

A gem of a place, quiet and very few people for our two day stay. The road noise is not an issue, the traffic was light to none. Some of the sites are large enough for RV trailers and some are pull through. Up high and in the forest makes for nice cool evenings in summer. No trash cans, pack it in, pack it out. There are two vault toilets, one was clean, the other not so clean. $6 a night via t... A gem of a place, quiet and very few people for our two day stay.

Nothing special but very convenient. Nicely kept. Bathroom must have been addressed, it's quite pleasant. The lower sites are more private and may be a touch quieter in regards to hwy noise. As mentioned the hwy is pretty dead at night so don't stress it unless you are a SUPER light sleeper. I'd give 5 stars if there was a water pump.
