Close to Trillium. Quiet and clean.

@CynthiaB470794 · Camped on Aug 30, 2024 at Campsite #25

The campsite was very large. Very little noise from the other campers. The toilet was "clean" for an outhouse, toilet paper was always stocked. I would definitely camp here again.

@SharonD4417162 · Camped on Aug 9, 2024 at Campsite #24

The campground loop has some pretty big potholes. There were only a few bathrooms in the campground, and I was disappointed to find no shortcut trails leading to them so be prepared to walk if your site is not close. The creek is also quite loud from our campsite but that comes with booking near one. The service was on and off. Overall, the campground was good but not the best.

@ShirleyH920188 · Camped on Aug 9, 2024 at Campsite #23

There was no camp host or park employee who came around to check on us, even to verify we were to be at the site. This being said there was no hiking information. There was lots of toilet paper, showing many relieved in the areas around the campsites. The bathrooms did not appear to be cleaned while we were there and this was 2 nights and no air freshener was hung up to help cut the smell. I enjoy Mt. Hood and know the area well but if I were not I would not know the trails OR the fact that Trillium Lake was a walk away or to go to the meadow and see graves of pioneers, and there wasn't a write up about them. I know it is a primitive campground so can accept it as such but you asked for comments.

We had a great time at this campground! Our spot was #15, right on the creek which was super nice. The bathrooms are pit toilets and were as clean as could be. The nice surprise to this campground was the back road to Trillium Lake! We drove out the back side of the campground on the gravel road to enjoy the amazing views from the lake. there is a bit of history along the way about some settlers back in the day! The spots are very large and spacious. The road around the campground could definitely use some maintenance, so go slow the pot holes are large! Overall we would absolutely come back to this campground! Only 5 min from Government camp and the iconic Timberline Lodge is right up the road for dinner!

Do not like oregons campfire ban in a developed campsite. Undeveloped or back woods camping I understand. Should adopt californias campfire permit.

@ALLYSONLB116EA · Camped on Aug 1, 2024 at Campsite #12

Great campground. Spacious sites. Fairly private with lots of trees and bushes around. There is road noise from the highway. Cars arent too bad but the semi trucks seemed to use their air brakes all night long.

@LeilaMEE3570AE · Camped on Jul 26, 2024 at Campsite #18

Campground is gorgeous and quiet. Site right on the river. Very peaceful. However, the dumpsters were overflowing during our entire 3 night stay, and the bathrooms were in rough shape.

@TroyP6A53288A8 · Camped on Jul 24, 2024 at Campsite #21

When I arrived at 10:15 pm there was a large van parked in my spot. I had to ask them to move and they said they didn't think I was coming so they took my spot. Other than that it was ok but I was annoyed they tried poaching a spot like that.

@EricW5409055 · Camped on Jul 2, 2024 at Campsite #17

Very attractive, forested sites with a friendly and helpful host.

@JayM1341230 · Camped on Jul 1, 2024 at Campsite #7

Very remote and peaceful. Sites were very spacious and had a nice backcountry feel. Not really any highway noise

@EllenH5197529 · Camped on Jun 26, 2024 at Campsite #12

This campsite is situated very close to a main road and is very noisy. The road around the campsite is not maintained and is full of huge potholes. Other reviews do mention thieves and we did find that cars kept circling around the site and reversing back and forth (they did leave and nothing was taken). The site is also full of mosquitos. The vault toilets were also extremely small, unclean and with no hand sanitizer. We left without staying the night and cancelled the following night because of these issues.

@VinceP5CC64DC7 · Camped on Jun 18, 2024 at Campsite #16

We really wanted to like this campground. By all appearances it looks great. Campsite 16 is next to a stream with a waterfall. Campsites are amply spread apart, so we never heard our neighbors. The host had firewood for sale and kept the latrines stocked with toilet paper.But, this place is TERRIBLY LOUD from highway noise. Highway 26 curves by right next to the site. It's apparently a downhill stretch and semis were hitting their noisy air brakes even at 3 a.m. The traffic noise was bad at all hours and boomed over what should have been the soothing sounds of the stream. We will not be back.

@Charlotte71564 · Camped on Aug 25, 2023 at Campsite #14

Really pretty campground! Very sandy and lots of hornets though. Bring your own toilet paper!

@TerriVBAEA469A · Camped on Aug 14, 2023 at Campsite #15

Although the site location was nice when I arrived my reservation details were not on post. Had to chase someone out of the site. When the forest personnel finally came through next day I told them. They fixed it the day we were leaving. Trash receptacle overflowing and people were stopping at water Spicket across from site to bathe their dogs and bodies even though the sign said not to. Nobody around to enforce any rules.It appeared that these mostly were people leaving the back way from the lake. Otherwise, this campground is quiet compared to the one adjacent to the lake.

@CorbinSEAEC3C1 · Camped on Aug 10, 2023 at Campsite #25

While the campground is right by the highway, it is relatively quiet. This site was okay. Tent spot was kinda small, even for just a two person tent. The parking spot was rough with rocks and tree trunks sticking out. Id recommend site 18 and 20 as they seem larger and youd have an easier time parking.

@OonaMBEE0AA8B9 · Camped on Jul 31, 2023 at Campsite #15

Site was beautiful by the creek. The traffic noise was somewhat bad, and the pit toilets were very smelly, but otherwise we enjoyed our stay. There are so many hiking opportunities nearby on My Hood.

@MandiWDCC8FCBB · Camped on Jul 31, 2023 at Campsite #24

Make sure to go down to the sandy beach behind site 13. Site 6 was a phenomenal site by the creek but horribly unlevel because the asphalt driveway is falling apart. The road throughout the campground is full of DEEP potholes. It really needs some serious maintenance work.

@CleveM771E91F5 · Camped on Jul 26, 2023 at Campsite #12

The site was very adequate for tent camping.

@JackS8867688 · Camped on Jul 23, 2023 at Campsite #19

The campsite was great . . . near the creek, lots of room around the firepit and picnic table. I could not give the site a good rating though because of how close it is to the highway. The sounds of cars and trucks all day and through the night is unavoidable from this location. If it were located away from the road, I'd give it a 4 or 5 for sure!

@BrettKC3A4A020 · Camped on Jul 10, 2023 at Campsite #13

The sites were clean and nice. It’s in a dense forest of large trees, so it’s dark. That makes it cooler and better for sleeping, but probably not a place you want to hang out during the daytime.

@DeborahW920812 · Camped on Jul 3, 2023 at Campsite #19

Clean campground. Clean toilet area, plenty of paper. Creek nearby, lulling one to sleep. Minimal mosquitos. Would definitely stay here again if in the area.

@SamanthaH43502 · Camped on Jul 3, 2023 at Campsite #13

Great location, wonderful camp host, and huge sites. It was very woodsy, and that's just how we like it.

@PauloM7C641404 · Camped on Jun 30, 2023 at Campsite #7

Great campground for tents! Spacious and well separated campsites. Restrooms were well-kept but they are vault toilets. Amazing location for all things around Mt Hood! Do be prepared for tons of mosquitos, though! All times of the day, especially dusk, they are all over the place! Don’t forget your repellant and citronella candles. Saw several other sites and it’s nets over the picnic tables and now I see why!

@JonathanA23180 · Camped on Jun 30, 2023 at Campsite #15

quiet campground without a lot of loud music or LED lights to distract from nature. Camp host was attentive and present. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Campsite was clean and well maintained. One of our favorite spots.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

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!!!
