About
Bedrock Campground occupies a scenic terrace above Fall Creek in the Willamette National Forest, approximately 14 miles from Lowell, Oregon. The surrounding landscape was shaped by the Bedrock Fire, and the recovering hillsides now produce impressive fireweed blooms during summer months, creating a unique visual backdrop for camping. This 22-site campground offers standard nonelectric sites and tent-only sites. Single sites accommodate up to 6 people with 2 vehicles and 2 tents, while double sites allow 8 people with 3 vehicles and 3 tents. The campground provides vault toilets and picnic tables but no potable water, so campers must bring their own water supply. The Fall Creek area offers swimming and fishing opportunities. Check-in is at 2:00 p.m. and check-out at noon, with quiet hours from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. There is no cell or landline service at the campground. The campground host is stationed at nearby Broken Bowl Campground.
