Weekend Trip to Old Elkhorn Golf Course

Cannot say enough great things about our experience at Elkhorn Camp. Anthony made it easy to find and was helpful in helping us select a site that fit what we were looking for. The campsite itself is beautiful and perfectly serene. We had privacy and felt safe. It was an easy drive and was close to the river. Bathrooms were convenient and clean. I would highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Old Elkhorn Golf Course

Stayed on Fairway 18 with two other families fire barrel was great private stay great walking access to the river. Will be back again.

1 night at Shelter Sanctuary Camping Paradise

Absolutely one of the most gorgeous, private and serene locations we’ve ever stayed. Attention to detail was amazing. From the beautiful fire pits (with unlimited free firewood), the rain shelters, solar lighting, double hammock and furniture made from their own small saw mill (wood from fallen trees only) the campsites are immaculate. Ours was set at the edge of a pristine meadow surrounded by a healthy forest of doug fir, sugar pine, maple and more. It is a birders paradise, alive with the sounds of wild turkeys, tree swallows and pileated woodpeckers. Walking along a lovely creek, past a pond of native cutthroat trout and getting a tour of one of the healthiest vegetable gardens we’ve seen by Richard, the owner, was one of the many highlights of our stay. We really appreciated at how environmentally conscious the owner is with this property. There are lots of trails in the vicinity. We hiked the McKenzie River trail from Sahalie Falls to Blue Pool and back - stunningly beautiful! Castle Rock trailhead is only a 2 minute drive. Can’t wait for our next stay!

1 night at Crater Lake Private Space

Our stay at Dave’s camp was nothing short of spectacular! The communication was top-notch, with clear, easy-to-follow directions that made our arrival seamless. The gated entry gave us a great sense of security, allowing us to fully unwind. The grounds were stunningly beautiful, offering a serene and secluded atmosphere—it truly felt like we were the only ones there, even with another group at the second camp. The highlight was the breathtaking view of the night sky; the stars were absolutely dazzling, providing an unforgettable stargazing experience. Everything was so well thought out, making this a perfect retreat. We can’t recommend Dave’s camp enough for anyone looking for a tranquil getaway under the stars!

Weekend Trip to Crater Lake Private Space

Great location 30 minutes from Crater Lake. Wide open meadow with lots of trees. Beautifully maintained. Little town of Prospect is minutes away where you’ll find home style cooking at the Prospect restaurant and tip one with the locals at the Trophy Bar. Lots of fun!

Weekend Trip to Crater Lake Private Space

1 night at Marmot House Old Growth Forest

Had a lovely night at this cabin. The hosts were great and very accomdating. Perfect bare bones off grid cabin stay if you are passing through town

2 nights at Cornerstone Ranch

Stunning scenery, our back doors opened up and had a lovely view of horses to wake up to. Very quiet& easy to come and go throughout the day.

1 night at Marmot House Old Growth Forest

The host greeted me immediately upon arrival and gave me a tour. She was very welcoming, kind and informed me of all I needed to know. I felt comfortable right away! The pictures on the sight don’t do it justice…it’s a beautiful place.

1 night at Back Side of Painted Hills Camping

Beautiful!!! Got greeted by some handsome goats! Instructions for the campsite were very clear and the site was well maintained and equipped with every camping amenity you need

Weekend Trip to Shelter at Castle Rock Farm

My family loved our weekend getaway here! Richard provides you with just about everything you need. The property is beautiful, our 2yr old loved looking for rocks by the creek. It’s a perfect spot for stargazing as well. We enjoyed seeing all the wildlife, especially the turkeys and hummingbirds! Lots of good hiking nearby too. :)

Weekend Trip to Old Elkhorn Golf Course

Love this place. Gets better every time. It's a beautiful part of Oregon. And it's OPEN. really the only place on the Santiam that is open.

Weekend Trip to Sunset Bay Meadows

All the camping sites were large and spaced out. Our dogs loved the large area they were able to run around and explore without bothering anyone. If your dog is a ball chaser, this place is a must after long travel days. The only downside was the limited service so make sure you get the directions from Tim before you head too far back. We didn’t stay long enough to use the showers or sauna but would have liked to. Would definitely stay here again.

Weekend Trip to Hurlys Hideaway

We found this perfect spot last minute and the host was so gracious , the pup Augie was a sweet heart, we had 3 dogs and they got to roam the campsite and be dogs, we loved the quite little spot and will most definitely book again thanks - Krissie

Weekend Trip to Old Elkhorn Golf Course

Such a fun unique place, we had a blast! Tony is super awesome and we enjoyed chatting with him and learning about the golf course. As a former golf course superintendent, it was such a thrill to checkout the layout of the course. Such a great camping experience. 10 stars out of 10 stars! I’m already checking my calendar to see when we can go back! We used our e scooters to checkout some of the other golf holes.

Weekend Trip to The Falls at Elk Prairie

Elk Prairie is a hidden gem, and we are lucky that Clint shares this with the public. We stayed at site one which is the closest to the waterfall, so we had an uninterrupted view. Falling asleep to the rushing water and babbling brook made the place even more magical. As others shared, pack light or prepare for multiple trips down and up the hill. Considering the outhouse was not fully enclosed, it was surprisingly clean and decent to use (even my wife managed and she hates porta potties!).

Weekend Trip to Shelter at Castle Rock Farm

Richard thought of everything! The campsite was well-equiped with all the amenities for an Oregon campout; covered picnic area, plenty of firewood, well designed and built outhouse, hammock, beautiful, scenic landscape, quiet and private surroundings. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Close to hiking trails, rivers, and hot springs. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Sunset Bay Meadows

I like that we were a fair distance away from staff, but they were available. Having wood on-site was awesome. Well-maintained while still having its natural beauty

Luxurious platform canvas wall tents feature wireless phone chargers, high thread count sheets, and boot dryers.

Sorry, NO rv's (vans are allowed.) Its wonderful to see all the beautiful regrowth, and to see that most of our trees have regenerated. It is now once again a beautiful place to be.

Mountainous camping in Oregon guide

Overview

Oregon has long been known as an outdoor destination, with snow-capped mountains, rugged high desert, Pacific Coast beaches, and roaring rivers all within a few hours’ drive of one another. While Portland attracts visitors with its celebrated food scene and music venues, Oregon offers much more for those who’d prefer a quieter getaway out in nature. If you’ve come to camp or hike, you’ll have no shortage of options to choose from—in fact, there are 11 national forests, hundreds of state parks and recreation areas, and 2.5 million acres of protected wilderness within the state’s borders.

Where to go

The Willamette Valley

Extending from the border with Washington state down to the community of Springfield, the Willamette Valley is Oregon’s main economic and cultural hub. Although it’s home to the state’s three most populated cities (Portland, Salem, and Eugene), much of the Willamette Valley is dominated by forests and countryside, with plenty of state parks, hiking and mountain biking trails, hot springs, and rivers.

Mount Hood and the Columbia River Gorge

Just east of Portland on the border with Washington, the Columbia River Gorge offers easy access to miles of hiking trails, waterfalls, and great skiing and snowboarding. The adjacent Mt. Hood region has equally beautiful scenery and is as popular for winter skiing and snowboarding as it is for hiking, swimming, and camping in the summer months.

The Oregon Coast

This region is popular year-round, attracting whale-watching fans in the cooler months and campers and hikers in the summer months. Popular Oregon Coast activities include hiking, tide pool viewing, clamming, crabbing, off-road vehicle rides on the sweeping Oregon Dunes, and sampling world-famous cheese and ice cream in Tillamook. While some brave souls don wetsuits for surfing and diving, the Pacific Ocean waters rarely get warm enough for comfortable dips. Some of the area’s best camping options can be found at Harris Beach State Park, Sunset Bay State Park, and Cape Lookout State Park, all of which offer tent camping, yurt rentals, and RV sites with hookups.

Eastern and Central Oregon

Stretching from the portion of the Cascade Range south of the Columbia Gorge all the way east to the Oregon-Idaho border, central and eastern Oregon offer a dryer, sunnier alternative to the rainier parts of the state, with a mix of lush forest and craggy high desert landscapes. Highlights include Deschutes National Forest, popular for backpacking and backcountry stays, while campers in search of a more developed camping experience can head to one of the many Oregon state parks along the Deschutes River, near Bend.

Southern Oregon

Oregon’s southernmost region offers a variety of scenery, with a mix of lakes, forests, and rivers interspersed with rolling expanses of countryside (not to mention some great wineries). The region’s most famous natural attraction is Crater Lake National Park, Oregon’s only national park, set near the southeastern reaches of Umpqua National Forest.
