I rate this visit very high. We visit here annually. Ohanapicash campground is a great car camping experience. Its next to a wonderful river, a cool ranger station, scenic hiking trails, and inside an outstanding national park! Bring your swim suit for an ice bath like swim. Bring kids and bikes to the ride the network of loops. Relax and enjoy.

Great spot for families.

Of the two group campsites, this was the better option. A bit more private and plenty of space for three 4-person tents and a couple of smaller tents. Although the site was very close to the road, there wasn't a lot of traffic. Loop A seems to be the most quiet of the campground. Loop C has sites right on top of each other and a bit rowdier. Rangers were incredibly nice and helpful. Quiet hours were respected. Bathrooms ran out of paper towels though. Silver Falls trail was a nice and easy to get to. Overall, really nice campground for families.

The best campground in the park. Swim in the river and don't forget to get up early and fish before the swimming starts!

We stayed in the Group site in C loop over Juneteenth weekend 2022. I reserved it the December prior. Plenty of room for our party of 13 with 6 tents; more than 1 more tent would have been a bit crowded. It was easy to park a 6th car at the day use parking lot nearby, though formally the further-away ranger station is the proper place for overflow overnight parking. Only loops A, B, C were open, and all but the group sites were first come first serve. Not crowded at all, which surprised me a little. I guess it was still pretty early in the season. The restroom was restocked daily, though paper towels did run out once. I was surprised there wasn't a dedicated dishwashing toilet "side room" like the other loops have, but a regular toilet worked fine. The firewood truck came around twice on Friday and Saturday evenings, but NOT AT ALL on Sunday evening (despite it being a 3-day holiday weekend)! So we were stuck chilly with no firewood until we chatted with some C-loop neighbors who had stocked up on firewood in Packwood, and kindly sold us some. Love falling asleep to the sound of the river and waking to birds... glad we had sleep masks and earplugs to sleep in past 4/5am near the summer solstice, though! The amphitheater is still closed and didn't even have benches installed, no family programming or anything was offered. The visitor's center was open, with stamps and Junior Ranger booklets, and the weather forecast was written on a whiteboard outside each day. Trash and recycling was easy. Hiking the Silver Falls loop was excellent as always. Part of Grove of the Patriarchs was closed, and we couldn't easily drive up to Paradise yet this year. No cell signal or internet access whatsoever, a lovely forced offline getaway. Overall it was a damp and chilly weekend (until the last day, figures) but our group still had a blast at this perfect campground by which I rate all others! Don't hesitate!

Great campground. Large site. We weren't a group but it was the only one available. Great base for exploring the park. Like most NP campgrounds, there are no showers and the bathrooms were not in the best condition - no paper towels stocked. Fairly quiet and clean campground despite being full.

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
