Fall River's headwaters bubble from the ground approximately 1/4 mile from the campground. The river meanders through the forest before joining the Deschutes River. Legal-sized brook and rainbow trout are stocked several times a year.

The camp host was never available, and restrooms poorly maintained.

Good campground and was well maintained over the season by the Camp Host Tyler. It is a busy campground between the campers and the day use folks. It is a beautiful river with a nice easy hike and great fishing. We always look forward to our trips to Fall River and have met some wonderful people there.

Love this quiet campground so much. Camp host was amazing, she found a ring I had lost two weeks prior and held on to it for me until we can back through two weeks later. Clean large sites with good spacing between sites so it feels very private. Nice creek to relax in when it’s hot and a lovely little hiking trail. Perfect place to stop for a night on my way to Portland Oregon

Campground was clean, as were the vault toilets. We were there on a more quiet weekend and enjoyed having most of the place to ourselves. For riverfront, spots 6-8 are good. 6 has the most privacy but I can't imagine a 40ft trailer parking there. We had to manuever a 20ft trailer and truck into it. 7 & 8 are more like group spots but 7 really has the location. Fishing is great, evening sky is amazing - all in all, a good time at Fall River

Fall River is a lovely spring fed river. The setting is peaceful and folks who camp there tend to be quiet. It’s fun to look at fish. If you fly fish, it’s fun to catch them. This campground is a sweet gem in central Oregon. I even saw a bald eagle sitting on s tree branch.

Beautiful clean well kept campground. Not overly busy and the day use area is great and the day use guests do not wander through the campground.
