About

Devil's Flat Campground is a small, primitive campground nestled under a bluff and surrounded by a forest of cedar, pine, and madrone in Oregon's Umpqua National Forest. With just three tent/trailer sites, it offers a quiet, secluded experience in the picturesque Cow Creek drainage. The campground is notable for its historic landmarks. On the north side, you'll find stone ruins of a water fixture built by the Civilian Conservation Corps "Fire-Eaters" in the 1930s. The south side features the old Devil's Flat Guard Station with a 1915 ranger cabin and a 1920s-era horse barn. Near the cabin, a tiki carving in a fir tree gives the campground its name. Hiking opportunities abound: Cow Creek Falls Trail #1422 makes a 0.3-mile loop along cascading Cow Creek Gorge, Elk's Skull Bluff Trail #1428A offers a 0.5-mile loop to a viewpoint, Maranatha Trail #1422A travels 1.5 miles to an overlook, and Devil's Flat Trail #1428 leads 5 miles to the top of Red Mountain.
