Shady Cove Campground

Shady Grove Campground offers campers a primitive camping experience along the Little North Fork of the Santiam River. Looking for some adventure? Take one of the nearby hiking trails through the old-growth forest for stunning views of waterfalls and mountain vistas. All of the 13 campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis. The campground can be wet in April and May, but is dryer later in the season; the best months to visit are during September and October, which also happens to be when the crowds thin out! Make sure to check the official site for closures before you go!
