The Umpqua National Forest is currently in the process of selecting a concessionaire for several of its campgrounds. This change is part of a long-term initiative to improve visitor services, enhance campground facilities, and ensure a better overall experience for outdoor enthusiasts. As a result, reservations for the 2025 summer season at this facility have been put on a temporary hold until the selection process is completed. While reservations for this facility will be unavailable during this time, it’s important to note that not all campgrounds in the Umpqua National Forest are impacted. Campgrounds not included in the concessionaire portfolio will remain on their individual reservation schedule and will be available for booking as planned.
