We camp there 5 times a yr. throughout the season for the past 8 yrs. Only wish that the restrooms were more often maintained.

@JessicaK101721 · Camped on Oct 25, 2024 at Campsite #7

This is such a beautiful campground. Very well kept and so so quiet. Loved it!

@SamanthaK65339 · Camped on Oct 5, 2024 at Campsite #T4

LOVED the area. Nice weekend getaway

I adore Alsea Falls area, the campground and the surrounding forest. I've stayed in site 6, but prefer site 2 that has a direct path to the creek. John, the camp host, keeps the camp clean. My only disappointment is the seasonal closure starting in October

@SusanF5244064 · Camped on Sep 20, 2024 at Campsite #3

We made reservations on line but when we arrived at the campground someone was in our site, but not present. We contacted the camp host who apparently did not mark our site as reserved. He continued to tell us that there were no refunds, which is ridiculous when we paid for something we did not receive. But. The trails are amazing for mountain biking!

@BrianE1853408 · Camped on Sep 19, 2024 at Campsite #6

mountain bike trails are a must-ride

@GlysenB90FB5E3 · Camped on Sep 8, 2024 at Campsite #3

A good getaway spot

@JamesT8733204 · Camped on Aug 23, 2024 at Campsite #2

This is a fantastic spot. I love the greenery and the waterfalls. The nearby road makes it easy to get into the campsite, and it's a largely quiet road. So you don't listen to traffic all day and all night.

I was disappointed that the toilets havent been pumped and were almost at the top (it takes months for this to happen)- the smell was HORRIBLE and the flies even worse! The camp host tried, but there was only so much he could do. There was no trash cans at the campsites- only two at the restrooms. Speaking of trash, at the front of the campground near where the host stays, the two giant garbage cans used for all of the campground garbage were completely filled and literally overflowing! During this same visit (8/2024) even though the fire danger was moderate, there was also a fire restriction prohibiting campfires which was really bad because there was no way to keep the bugs away (which they were probably worse because of the toilets and trash issue).Lol, all this being said, the campsites themselves were very clean and well cared for. It was quiet and peaceful. We will definitely give this place another try and hopefully our next experience will be a bit more pleasant :)

The campground was clean and quiet, with good and many water spigots throughout the campground. Easy access to hiking trails with good trail signage.

@reginaldk4492E · Camped on Aug 12, 2024 at Campsite #13

great campground. Nice trail around the area. Best mountain biking

@JasonFAE7A6F1A · Camped on Aug 11, 2024 at Campsite #16

Everything was great! Good job!

@SusanW3089432 · Camped on Aug 8, 2024 at Campsite #16

it was such a fun kid friendly place. loved how the outhouses were kept clean and stocked with tp

@SarahK3888645 · Camped on Jul 29, 2024 at Campsite #3

Such a beautiful place to visit! The trails are well maintained; the falls are beautiful; large campsites; and quiet. I wish they had flush toilets. It's the pits with pits.

@DeannaPF9D3AF5 · Camped on Jul 28, 2024 at Campsite #14

Beautiful place,, just watch out for the wasp nests off the trail

@RobinC5286361 · Camped on Jul 21, 2024 at Campsite #8

Lovely, quiet campground, well-cared for, lots of water spigots/drains, clean bathrooms. We love staying here and have our fave site which we got again this summer. Close to the Falls, just a pleasant half-mile hike to them from campground, if more energetic there is a hike up to Peak Falls, not strenuous and worth the walk. We got lucky, day we were packing up to leave, the BLM imposed NO campfire restrictions due to high fire risk (although you would never guess that, its so green, lush there!).

@HannahG9605911 · Camped on Jul 5, 2024 at Campsite #T3

When we arrived we were not told that there were no campfires allowed in the campsites and nowhere online did it say there were any fire bans. So we came completely unprepared for not being able to have a fire. The camp host didnt tell us anything about it and would not refund the fee. So that was $20 wasted. Very disappointing and a terrible experience.

@MaxE8139158 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #2

Fabulous Campground, campsites and location. Private path to river. Camp host is friendly and supplies generous firewood deals. Saw a huge mountain lion not far from the entrance near the road. I love this place. Check out Green Peak falls; its more spectacular than Alsea Falls in my opinion, but requires a little hike to get to.

@MR417B06133B35 · Camped on Jun 26, 2024 at Campsite #2

The camping sites were private, the hikes were great. We were lucky with the weather, it was cool and a little wet. Our family had a great time and will return.

@RobertL7452920 · Camped on Jun 19, 2024 at Campsite #4

Sites are spaced well so that you feel isolated from other groups. Firewood at site is a good value. Great access from site 4 to river. Clean toilets. This is a repeat visit and would repeat again, highly recommended.

@JesseS1730361 · Camped on May 27, 2024 at Campsite #4

Campground was quite and peacful. Beautiful campsites that felt very private due to the brush between site. The vault toilets were full like very full nearly reaching the top of the pit. We were there the week after a major holiday so i wasnt surprised by them being full but i did expect the truck to come pump them and it did not for the week we were there. I felt like the odor was more than usual because of this and that was not great but over all the campground was good and we will be returning.

@AbbyS8FA2C54D3 · Camped on May 20, 2024 at Campsite #12

Lovely area, we've camped here before. Given the time of year it wasn't surprising that it was chilly at night and a bit rainy during the day, but we're used to it. Campground host was helpful and sites are kept clean.

@AlisonD2771610 · Camped on May 17, 2024 at Campsite #1

Nice, quiet campground. Love it here!

@LenaS3526763 · Camped on May 10, 2024 at Campsite #15

Beautiful weekend in a gorgeous place. We had a great time and saw some wonderful birds & wildlife right at our campsite! The hike to the falls is gorgeous and we will be back!

@JessieD151D9AA · Camped on May 10, 2024 at Campsite #1

I think this is a great site. Bathrooms were clean and camp host was friendly. White noise from river was lovely.

@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!!!
