Been coming to this campground for over 20 years and never been disappointed.

Camp hosts were great and kept a good eye on things. Site was clean and it was quiet at night. Bathrooms are as expected for a dry campground. All and all, we had an amazing time and will be going back.

This was our family's third year here and it's always nice, clean, and a beautiful place to camp. The spaces are large and we love the privacy between them.

So much fun. Biking is endless!! The river trails are Amazing Day or Evening. Don't forget your head lamp. Loved the camp host. He was very gracious with our needs. Thank you for a wonderful time. See you next camping trip!
@KRISTINEC25031 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #78
The sites were spaced out nicely and the bathrooms were clean.
@AmyB6929249 · Camped on Aug 4, 2025 at Campsite #15
Such a great campground. Lots of room and a beautiful flowing creek. We walked the trail along the Rogue all the way up to the gorge. Such an unexpected and beautiful place.
@CiaraR9ADA9DB9 · Camped on Aug 3, 2025 at Campsite #38
The campsite was exactly what we needed! Far enough from other campers to feel private, but close enough to feel safe. A short walk from the toilet and water, and a beautiful morning walk! Definitely recommend for anyone wanting to stay near Crater Lake but didn't know they book up way in advance!
@DouglasG241363 · Camped on Aug 3, 2025 at Campsite #78
Sites are very nice, campground hosts are great. Pit toilets are a bit gross but there is a toilet and sink near the entrance with running water. Sites are large and many are on the stream/river. Not a bad drive into crater lake at all.
@JaelenHC60E396 · Camped on Jul 26, 2025 at Campsite #87
Wonderful campsite! The camp hosts were friendly and very helpful. There was lots of space between the different sites so it didn't feel crowded and the roads are well kept. There was easy access to the creek right across from our camp site as well as lots of fun things to do nearby and an easy drive to Crater lake. Would recommend!

Beautiful campground. Quiet except for the creek/river running nearby. Campground hosts are wonderful.
@JenniferS83796 · Camped on Jul 22, 2025 at Campsite #11
We absolutely loved campsite 11 and it's location right on the river. Our only complaint was the vault toilet. It was nasty. We had been camping for 3 weeks in similar campsites throughout the PNW. And to compare, the vault toilets at all the other sites were being cleaned twice a day. Union Creek's vault toilet didn't seemed to be touched in the 3 days we were there. Otherwise, we would absolutely return to camp again. Hearing the rushing river was the best sleep of our 3 weeks!

We miss Gary the old host. The new host is nice but not personable
@PriscillaAED4F · Camped on Jul 21, 2025 at Campsite #14
The campground host was kind. Nearest dump station is approximately 20 minutes away -we had to drive there prior to our stay that evening. My husband (who usually can use the bathroom anywhere) said that he couldn't even walk up to the toilets when he attempted to use them instead of our RV -he said it smelled terrible. There was a trail through our campground by the creek that people would consistently walk through the backside of our site -which was not private at all. The camp was very dry during July -so bring closed shoes and older clothing if going in the Summer.
@DariaEA3D40455 · Camped on Jul 19, 2025 at Campsite #42
Bathrooms were absolutely horrendous with almost half of them being unavailable. With a full campground, it seems unreasonable. I know this is probably due to NPS being defunded so Im sad to leave this review.
@NicoleO30119E8 · Camped on Jul 18, 2025 at Campsite #RV2
I LOVED this campground. The one I mostly enjoyed in our travels. Only 3 RV sites. You can really experience nature here! We got there at night and our site was reserved. We built a fire and enjoyed the silence. It is in the middle of the woods. I would have liked to stay and enjoy this site a little longer.
@DonnaB6313036 · Camped on Jul 14, 2025 at Campsite #72
My campsite was in the back right by the river and there was plenty of shade, very nice. However, the toilet had no lock on it!
@toml3206649 · Camped on Jul 10, 2025 at Campsite #61
My campsite was fantastic! It was on the bank of the Rogue River and very much separated from the neighbors. I felt like I had the place to myself.The camp hosts are very friendly and helpful.On the negative side: Toilets, water, and trash cans are quite sparse.
@LinQ0F01FBAB97 · Camped on Jul 4, 2025 at Campsite #96
First Time Camping in Oregon Absolutely the Best!I've been to many campsites throughout California, but this was my first time camping in Oregon and it was by far the best experience yet. Each campsite is generously spaced out, about 2 to 4 times larger than those I've seen in Cal, offering incredible privacy. The area is surrounded by dense, towering pines and lush plants, creating a peaceful, secluded atmosphere. The nearby river adds a gentle white noise, noticeable but never loud.The only downside was the compost toilet with much stronger smell I've visited, but there's a flushing one available at the entrance.
@DoloresDE36465 · Camped on Jul 1, 2025 at Campsite #9
Campground was very quiet .You can walk a Long ways to find a water or a toilet; some people give up and drive. Lack of water spigots is a major problem. Toilet doors don't latch; they just have a sign to knock first, and then some were just too gross. I think the host is doing the best he can, but the campground is very large gets a lot of people with it's location near Crater Lake.Maybe needs a second host site. Nice trail along the river though it goes through people's campsites.
@GarrickJE8C401 · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #91
Beautiful spot, camp host was super helpful and great to talk to.
@RonnaHB7F3BA81 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #86
This is a beautiful campground. Our campsite was very private. We were right across the road from the beautiful creek. We were able to hike a short distance to the Rogue River too. There are trails along the river for hiking. Very pretty.
@JulieG948FE093 · Camped on Jun 24, 2025 at Campsite #15
We stayed at Union Creek campground while we toured Crater Lake. The campsite was amazing! It was quiet and we were right on the river. We only stayed one night, but wish we had stayed longer so we could explore the many trails in the area. I would highly recommend and hope to revisit one day.
@KateD3196349 · Camped on Jun 21, 2025 at Campsite #93
The campground was quiet despite having so many sites. There seemed to be a good amount of space between sites in the loop we were in (site 93), but it was a partly rainy weekend and there were a lot of empty sites, too. It was nice to hear the river while we were relaxing at the campground.
@EmmaP953543606 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #11
Large space at site 11. Plenty of flat land right next to the river. Cannot park right next to site but short walk (20m) down to the space. Private from neighbouring sites but quite disconcerting to come out of the tent in the morning and find people fishing less than 2m from tent. advise to pitch further back from the river!
@AliciaW2592121 · Camped on Jun 16, 2025 at Campsite #RV1
The RV camping spot was nice and wide, with both power and water hookups available. We stayed in June, and it was quite dusty during our visit. One thing to note is that there are no bathrooms or showers near the RV sitesyou have to walk to the entrance of the road to access the public restrooms. Overall, it worked fine for an overnight stay.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
