An Oasis in the desert
This campground is on the lower slope of the mighty Steens Mountain, and is just a few miles from Frenchglen. The campground is beautiful and opportunities for wildlife viewing are everywhere. Be sure to drive the Steens Mountain loop while you are here - it is magnificent!
This is a pretty nice campground for not being a State Park. Green lawns and shaded campsites make for easy camping. This is also a great "jumping off" point for fly fishing on the Donner and Blitzen River. I only gave it 4 stars because of the bad bugs in the Spring and that the river can run pretty high through June on high snow years.
