We enjoyed the location, quiet but still close to town. We did have to leave the camp when it was closed due to the fire near Sisters in July, but the camp hosts and the fire people were timely, informative and attentive to the whole situation.

It appears that little or no effort is put into this place. We had a table that looked like it was ready to collapse, and yet there was perfectly good table, sitting out in the woods off the walking path. There was an old dumpster laying on its side that looked like it had been there for years. The sites were as basic as you possibly could get.
