About
Bogus Creek Campground is the westernmost Forest Service campground in Umpqua National Forest, nestled among old growth Douglas fir, cedars, and flowering native shrubs. The Wild & Scenic North Umpqua River flows just across the highway, with a raft launch directly opposite the campground entrance providing convenient river access for rafting and fishing. The campground offers 14 sites including 4 double sites, all with picnic tables and fire rings. Facilities include flush toilets, potable water, a grey water waste sump, and garbage disposal. Paved roads and spurs make for easy navigation. The 79-mile North Umpqua Trail is accessible nearby via the Wright Creek or Mott Trailheads, and the on-site Riverview Trail offers scenic river views. This stretch of the North Umpqua is renowned for salmon and steelhead fly fishing and challenging whitewater. Wildlife viewing opportunities include bald eagles. The campground lies along the Rogue-Umpqua National Scenic Byway.
