Reviews

Willamette National Forest campgrounds are widely praised for their beautiful natural settings featuring rivers, lakes, and forest views. Sites are often spacious, clean, and well-maintained with generally friendly and helpful camp hosts. Many enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, privacy, and access to hiking, swimming, fishing, and other outdoor activities. However, common drawbacks include noise from nearby roads, trains, or other campers; mosquito and insect problems; limited or unreliable potable water; basic or sometimes poorly maintained restroom facilities; and occasional challenges with reservation systems, campsite sizing, and campground management.

I had a great experience camping here! The campsite was super clean and quiet, but so beautiful! The bathrooms were fairly clean too! The campsite is walkable to the Mckenzie River, which was so nice.

Campground and campsites were very clean. Most sites are spaced for good privacy. Old trees and close proximity of the river enhance the setting. Easy access and well-marked signage to the McKenzie River National Trail. Excellent place to relax for a few days or a week!

Fox Creek is a very large group site. Location was great. It's very private for your group and beautiful area for families and friends to run around, play games or have a quiet evening around the camp fire. The gate is a great way to keep privacy and enjoy your camping weekend without others coming in to observe or interrupt your group gathering. If you leave it open many people come in just to look or ask million questions. Bathrooms are cleaned each morning which is so nice and having dumpsters for your garbage is a plus. I really enjoy this camp site and can't wait to bring my family and friends back again.

Nice campground. It’s close to the main road, as many public campgrounds are, but the road isn’t that busy.
