My Review 

My brother-in-law and I stayed here while visiting friends in Canyonville and enjoying the Umpqua River. We were very disappointed in the facilities and management of this campground. Being close to I-5, we expected some highway noise, but that was the least of it! The campsites were tiny, requiring one's tent be set up next to the road running through the park. The shower and bathroom facilities were old and poorly cleaned and maintained. The park host/manager made no effort to control the park guests and enforce the noise curfew of 10:00 pm. Illegal fireworks were being set off after 11:00 pm. We had to confront campers in other sites ourselves after midnight in order to get enough quiet to finally get some sleep (very little)! For the cost of $15 per night, we expected much better. Save your money and get your sleep elsewhere. You won't get any at this campground!
