About
Situated 27 miles southeast of Oakridge, Oregon, Sacandaga Campground occupies a forested terrace above the Middle Fork of the Willamette River. Towering old-growth Douglas fir and pine trees surround the 17 campsites, creating a peaceful atmosphere even during busy summer weekends. The campground serves as a basecamp for exploring the Middle Fork Ranger District's diverse recreation opportunities. Two short trails within the campground provide direct access to the Middle Fork River for fishing and wading. The nearby Middle Fork National Recreation Trail offers extended adventures for hikers, mountain bikers, and equestrians. Other popular destinations include Young's Rock, Chuckle Springs, Indigo Springs, and the Diamond Peak Wilderness. The campground provides vault toilets, potable water from a hand pump, picnic tables at each site, and regular trash service. Campfires are permitted in designated fire rings when seasonal restrictions allow.
