Welcome to Molalla Ripple! Enjoy the sound of the Molalla River rolling over the rocks. Wake up to birds chirping and tall trees swaying in the breeze. The campsites are sixty feet apart for privacy and one path leads to the river with two private beach areas to relax. NOTE, Please use the clean bathrooms provided. DO NOT USE THE WOODS or camp site as your bathroom room. Thank you, let's keep things clean and safe for others to enjoy! Jsm Ranch started in 2004 when we moved from Oregon City. This once was a working farm with two chicken barns and a meat locker barn. All had been fallen into disrepair before taking owner ship. In 2007 we planted 200 tree's and 100 shrubs to build a new fish and wildlife habitat along Woodcock Creek. We then focused on building fence along the Molalla River to protect water quality. From there, we started raising Black Angus in 2008 after spending four years cleaning up the fields to make it safe for animals. We strive to be good stewards with our land as we continue to work with Clackamas Soil and Water to make better working lands. You're only minutes away from the town of Molalla to grab a bite, groceries or other camp items. Also have Molalla Rodeo just 3 minutes away on July 1-4th. You won't be disappointed for a great breakfast at Tammy D's (Mulino, OR), sandwiches at Humble Pig or pizza at Bear Creek Pizza & Pub.

Site 6 Mollala Ripple
Our fourth and still amazing
Always love to stay in Molalla Ripple with short notice, host James has been responsive and helpful. Our camping was nothing but relaxing in this place. Very convenient and perfect setting even in winter, with our tent setup by the river and the facilities included. Just exactly what we needed. Well thought and maintained property. Thank you always for accommodating us.

Best camping spot on the river!
We had a wonderful stay! It is a beautiful spot right next to the river with pretty sunset views. Seeing their cows and dogs was a highlight too! The fire pit is excellent for cooking. They also have string lights that come on after dark which made the experience even more quaint. We will certainly be returning. I can’t recommend this campground enough!

Fantastic Winter Camping Location
We absolutely loved our winter camping stay here in our van. The hot tub was the absolute highlight of our trip. It was in the 40’s during the day and the low 30’s at night and the hot tub had no trouble keeping up. We loved how huge they were and the ability to float in the hot water under the moonlight, next to the river. We’ll absolutely be back.

Site 1 MR
Great site!
Site 1 is comfortably set away from the next site over and has a nice fire ring and table. The directions are well-written and we had no issues getting in/out, and we found level ground to park on for a comfortable night's sleep. We didn't use any of the amenities but it looks like a great place to stay for more than one night!
