About
Spalding Pond Campground sits at a historic mill site in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, about 21 miles southeast of Grants Pass. The small, primitive campground surrounds a 3-acre pond set among majestic towering conifers. With only four campsites, the area maintains a quiet, secluded atmosphere. The pond is stocked annually with rainbow trout by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, making it a reliable fishing destination. Fishing is best from spring through early summer. Three accessible fishing platforms and a surfaced accessible trail provide opportunities for anglers of varying abilities. A small pebble beach offers additional pond access. This is a pack-it-in, pack-it-out campground with no potable water. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. Portable toilets are provided. The campground enforces quiet hours from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. and limits stays to 14 consecutive days.
Directions
From Grants Pass, take Highway 199 (Redwood Highway) south. At Hayes Hill, turn right onto Forest Road 25 and proceed about 8 miles to Forest Road 2524 (Spalding Mill Road). Turn left and continue approximately 5-6 miles to the campground.
