About
McCubbins Gulch Campground is a rustic, first-come, first-served camping area located at the edge of Mount Hood National Forest near the Warm Springs Tribal Lands. The campground features multiple shady sites, many of which are adjacent to a creek, providing a peaceful natural setting. Each site includes a picnic table and fire pit. This campground is situated within the McCubbins Gulch OHV designated trail system area, making it popular with off-highway vehicle enthusiasts. Campers should expect to hear and see ATVs during their stay, particularly during peak riding seasons. The OHV trail system is subject to seasonal closures from December 1 through March 31 to protect winter range for elk and deer populations. Amenities are basic: vault toilets are available, but there is no potable water on-site. Campers must bring their own water and pack out all trash. The campground can accommodate vehicles up to 25 feet in length. Access is via County Road 216 and Forest Road 2110 from Maupin.
Directions
From Maupin, drive about 23 miles west on County Road 216, then 2 miles northeast on Forest Road 2110.
