First come first serve campsite. At $20/night, pick one that fit your liking, wait for camp host Bob or Chaun to collect payment. 2 or 3 sites are on the river bank, the rest of campsites are further up the road with some sites are not level and/or small. The field campsite is on other side of the road. 2 pit toilets but only one operational when we were there. Best site is #9 for family, group#2... First come first serve campsite.

Pit toilet is clean enough fully stocked toilet papers. The only sound all around you is the rushing of river 20-30 yards away.

What a great little spot!! Every site is nicely laid out, right on the river and very affordable. The owner checked in on everyone in the evening for fees but the QR code is easy to use. Just down the road about 2 miles are restaurants and gas .

Such a wonderful little campground with great rates, RIGHT next to the river. Very quiet, beautiful, and easy to access. We dropped in after dark and found a spot for our 16ft trailer. Owners leave a QR code on your windshield for a Venmo payment. I communicated with Bob via text and found him very friendly and kind. I would definitely stay here again on our way to Cascades national park.

Been to this campground several times now! Can't wait to come back and go fishing! Definitely my favorite views is looking at the bridge or watching the river flow down! I have had the privilege to meet the owners and family members and they made myself and boyfriend at home with their welcoming presence & answered all of our questions or concerns! The honeybucket/trash/campsite's is always clean... Been to this campground several times now! Can't wait to come back and go fishing!

If you’re looking for a conveniently located spot that’s Quiet and peaceful and only $20 then this is perfect. Porta John, picnic table and fire pit provided and literally two minutes from town if you need anything. Cannot beat the site- gorgeous river to drink your morning coffee at
