The only issue we had is the fires. We tried to do some research and online it said fires were ok if they were in a ring. So we started a fire in our campsite. Two young women came by and was very upset, claiming there were signs in the campground. The large bulliten board by the bathroom said NOTHING about fires - either way. If there was something posted on the way it I did not see it. The most obvious place should have been the bulletin board. How can campers know when it's good an when it's not. Some sites, if close to homes, its no fire but YES sometimes. (this is what she told us). The red flag in the ring wasn't as clear as a message with no board sign to back it up.

There is no sign for the campground or for Forest Service Road 500 on Burgess Road. The link for directions with Apple maps from Rec.gov are wrong, directs to a private road. Use Google maps.

The campground was nice and the bathrooms were the cleanest I’ve ever seen! Very dusty area!

Moderately difficult dirt road with no directional signs that leads to the campground from the highway, but I was able to find it easily enough still. If you are traveling in a trailer or RV just take it slow. No camp host due to the small size but a forestry employee comes by every day or two to check the toilet. Easy river access with short hiking trails and fly fishermen make this a regular spot. Went during August and while every lake nearby has algae blooms the Deschutes river is still clean, clear, and beautiful. The big downgrade for this location are the camping spots are too close together with very little barrier between. They lucked out one year and an enormous tree came down in the middle of the campground to give everyone at least a little privacy from one another haha.

There was no camp host. The site I booked didn’t have my reservation on the post. Luckily the FCFS site was open and I was able to take that.
