Mecca Flat Campground

What a dream! Peaceful, tranquil, and beautiful. There might be thorns, snakes, and heat but the view of the stars at night is so worth it. No water, so make sure to bring plenty. Word to the wise… for an even more stellar stay, don’t pick the spot behind the camper with the generator and dogs. I still give it a 5-star!

Other than the puncture vine/goat heads it was great! The Deschutes River is beautiful, the rock walls spectacular especially in the morning light/setting sun. The bathrooms were clean and the anglers friendly. The Eagle Crossing diner close by had great cinnamon rolls, pie, fry bread and coffee for breakfast. I really enjoyed the staff there at breakfast. Camped with my boys one night end of August after hunting but will have to go back to fish.

I loved hiking the trail along the river. Well kept and the view was amazing. We went late Oct so there weren't a lot of people however the road to get there was a bit rocky and only wide enough for one car. There were enough pull outs to move over for oncoming traffic but I would never travel it by night. Oh I was surprised to find an out house about a mile into the hiking trail for anglers and hikers. Will definitely come again.

Great river access. But gets very crowded with boats and fisherman

Simple but adequate. For a quick stop you cant go wrong. Adjacency to the river is a treat, but this isn't the place to go swimming or expect to entertain children on a hot summer day.
