About

Canton Creek Campground sits along the banks of Steamboat Creek in Oregon's Umpqua National Forest, just upstream from where the creek meets the Wild and Scenic North Umpqua River. This small campground packs notable amenities into its five sites: flush toilets, potable water from spigots at each end of the loop, picnic tables, and fire rings. A day-use pavilion with additional tables and grills makes the area suitable for small group gatherings. The location is prime for outdoor recreation. The 79-mile North Umpqua Trail passes through the vicinity with multiple trailheads accessible for hiking and mountain biking. The North Umpqua River offers world-class fly fishing, and whitewater rafting opportunities abound. Steamboat Creek itself provides a refreshing swimming spot accessible directly from the campground. Visitors should note this is a pack-it-out campground with no trash services. The maximum vehicle length is 24 feet, making it unsuitable for larger RVs. Quiet hours are enforced between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., and the maximum stay is 14 consecutive nights.
