About
Campers Flat is a reservable group campground located 22 miles south of Oakridge, Oregon along the Middle Fork of the Willamette River in the Willamette National Forest. The single group site sits on an open river terrace beneath a canopy of Douglas-firs, Ponderosa pines, and cedars, offering a peaceful setting where the sound of the river drowns out passing traffic on Forest Road 21. The campground is well-positioned for trail-based recreation. The Middle Fork National Recreation Trail can be accessed directly from camp, and the Young's Rock Trail ends across the road. Both trails accommodate hikers, mountain bikers, and equestrians. Fishing is available in the Middle Fork and nearby Hills Creek Reservoir when in season. Chuckle Springs and Indigo Springs provide additional hiking destinations a short drive away. The site includes vault toilets, potable water from a hand pump, metal fire rings, and picnic tables. Pets and horses are permitted. The campground accommodates up to 30 people, 10 vehicles, and 10 tents, with a maximum vehicle length of 25 feet. A locked gate controls access; the combination is provided upon reservation or by contacting the Middle Fork Ranger Station.
