Tumalo State Park Campground

TIP: If you have a (normal-size Class B) campervan like a Ford Transit/Sprinter, and you find an available spot along the river in the A loop, it is indeed OK to camp there even though it's marked as a hiker/biker loop. The website says that the loop road is narrow, but vans are fine. (I emailed them to confirm that it was OK, and they replied that it was.) IMO, during high season it would be nice to reserve those spots for hikers/bikers, but we were there in late September so we felt OK about it. The A loop has flush toilets, sinks, and a trash can, but no lighting or other amenities. We spent two nights in this campground on our way from Washington to Nevada and back. One night was on Loop B (25) and the second night was at a riverside spot on Loop A (87). Neither site had any privacy t

This is a beautiful campground, especially for being so near populated areas. The bathrooms are clean, warm, smell nice and there are also private showers. The campsites were well maintained and perfectly raked when we arrived.

Tumalo State Park is hands down one of the best camping spots out there. The bathrooms are super clean, with great showers and toilets – a big plus when you’re camping. If you’re staying overnight, the yurts or cabins are definitely the way to go for comfort and convenience. The Deschutes River runs right through the park, and it’s perfect for floating on tubes or rafts during the summer. We even saw plenty of wildlife, including adorable rabbits hopping around – five-star entertainment! Another big bonus: Costco is only about 3 miles away, and you’re just 15 minutes from Old Bend. Easy access to everything you might need while still feeling like you’re out in nature. Absolutely my top pick for camping

While planning a trip from Northern California to Washington, we found Tumalo State Park Campground, in Tumalo Oregon. We were able to book a Yurt for one night. So, we did. This was our first time visiting Tumalo State Park and the campground. Booking was accomplished on line, with Reserve America. Check in was super easy, as I was sent an email with a code for a lock box, which had the key to the Yurt. The Yurt was clean and had a twin over full bunk, a futon, a coffee table and a table with two chairs. Electricity and electric heat, along with a ceiling fan. Also, an air purifier/fan. The Yurt was clean and neat. Bring your own bedding. Nothing but mattresses on the bunks and futon. Water was nearby, along with modern, clean restrooms and showers. However, my wife found the locks for th

We booked group camp site B with one teardrop and five tents. We enjoyed the seclusion of being away from everyone and only had to share facilities with group site A Plenty of parking available as you can have up to 10 cars per group site Previous campers left some firewood and we bought a bundle the next day from the campground hosts Site was clean Friendly campground hosts who came around a couple of times a day to check out the cars and restrooms There is a shower room available just a smidge down the way into the rest of the state park River access is done by walking or driving out of the state park and going to the day use area There were washing stations on both sides of the restroom building Garbage and recycling binds close by There were 4 picnic tables available; two 6 footers and
