About
Stillwater Campground sits along a peaceful stretch of the Lower Crooked Wild and Scenic River, about 14 miles south of Prineville on State Highway 27. The campground features 10 large, partially-shaded sites positioned along one of the quieter flatwater areas of the river, which inspired its name. Some pull-through sites are available, along with day-use parking for those just passing through. This BLM-managed recreation site operates year-round on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations. Facilities are basic: an ADA-accessible vault toilet is available, but there is no potable water, so campers must bring their own supply. Cell phone service is not available at the campground. The Chimney Rock segment of the Crooked River features a mostly steady gradient through its wild and scenic corridor. The area offers opportunities for fishing, floating, rafting, wildlife viewing, and hiking. Cyclists should be aware that State Highway 27 between Prineville and Bowman Dam is a designated state scenic bikeway.
