This 14-mile, paved, multi-use National Recreation Trail follows the route of
the now-abandoned Oregon Pacific & Eastern Railroad line, along the scenic
shores of the Row (rhymes with 'cow') River and Dorena Reservoir. There are
many trailheads and places to stop and enjoy views of Dorena Lake and the
surrounding farm country. Several quaint, covered bridges are located nearby,
as is the historic Bohemia Mining Area, which features remnants of late 1800s
gold mines. The trestle bridge at Harms Park is one of several locations
immortalized on the silver screen. Movies filmed along the railway include
'Stand By Me' with River Phoenix, 'Emperor of the North' with Ernest
Borginine, and, in 1926, 'The General' with Buster Keaton.

## Know Before You Go:

  * No camping is allowed along the trail.
  * No food or water is available on the trail. Several general stores are located in Cottage Grove, Dorena (across Row River Road from the trail), and Culp Creek (0.25 mile east on Row River Road).
  * Parking and restroom facilities are located at 2- to 3-mile intervals along the trail.
  * This Day Use area is open daily from dawn to dusk. 
  * Visitors should not enter old mine tunnels, which are both hazardous and located on private property.

## Point of Interest:

The Mosby Creek Covered Bridge, located just off the trail, is a white bridge
built in 1920. Extensive restoration work was completed in 1990. Row Point
survives as a remnant of a native prairie community, featuring showy displays
of wildflowers during spring.

<h2>Natural Features</h2>
Located in the Calapooya Mountains, Ivan Oakes is surrounded by woodland. With close proximity to the Willamette National Forest, the area is home to lots of wildlife. The weather is generally mild during the recreation season with temperatures ranging from the low 50s to the upper 90s. Chances of precipitation are high from May through mid-June.  
<h2>Charges & Cancellations</h2>
Reservation changes or cancellations can be made through Recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777.    
 
Cancelling/Changing a Reservation
 A $10.00 service fee will apply if you change or cancel your reservation. The $10.00 service fee will be deducted from the refund amount. Depending on when you cancel in relation to your arrival day, it may be considered a late cancellation (see below).      
 
Late Cancellations
Individual Campsites: A customer who cancels a reservation the day before or on the day of arrival will pay a $10.00 service fee AND forfeit the first night's use fee (not to exceed the total paid for the original reservation). Cancellations for a one-night reservation will forfeit the entire amount paid and will not be subject to an additional service fee.
Group Facility: Customers who cancel a group overnight facility reservation less than 14 days before the arrival date will pay a $10.00 service fee AND forfeit the first night's use fee.
 
No-Shows
A no-show customer is one who does not arrive at a campground and does not cancel the reservation by check-out time on the day after the scheduled arrival date. Staff will hold a campsite until 2pm on the day following the scheduled arrival date. No-shows are assessed $20.00 service fee and forfeit the first night’s recreation fee for a campsite.      
 
Early Departures
If a customer departs prior to the scheduled check-out date, they may be eligible for a partial refund. Please notify staff at the facility if you depart early to allow others to use the site. Customers may notify the call center to request a refund of remaining unused nights. If a customer requests a refund for an early departure after the facility check-out time has passed, the customer will not be refunded for that night and is eligible for a refund on any additional nights that will not be used.      
 
Refunds
Customers may submit a refund request through their Recreation.gov profile within 7 days of the end date of their reservation. Customers may also initiate a refund request through the call center at any time after their reservation has ended. 
Debit or Credit Card Purchases: Refunds for debit or credit card payments will be issued as a credit to the original card used to pay.                                               
Check or Cash Purchases: Recreation.gov will mail a Treasury check for refunds of cash, check, or money order payments to the address associated with the reservation. You may update the address at the time you request the refund. It may take up to 6-8 weeks for the Treasury check to arrive. Please make sure your address is up to date in your customer profile.

Starting in May 2022, we will not take payment or reservations at the
campground. All reservations must be made prior to arrival through
Recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777.
