Picturesque and peaceful! This site was clean and well marked. Beautiful ranch and high desert country. Ask about purchasing a jar of their home grown honey!

This spot is perfect! Exactly as advertised. A ton of space, very clean & well kept property & camping space. We are avid backpackers so this felt like glamping with the shelter, platform, & lighting. A ton of wildlife (large flocks of wild turkeys + herds of deer, hawks, songbirds) & beautiful scenery. We took all 4 of our dogs for a quick overnight for my wife’s birthday & it was perfect for a chill, fun evening. Great short walking paths. Richard is very nice & welcoming! Would stay again :~)

Mckenzie has put a lot of thought and effort into his ranch and offering a comfortable, welcoming experience. The land itself is beautiful. The ranch dogs are a super bonus! We had a lovely stay and would not hesitate to book again if we come his way.

A truly spectacular location: quiet, private, stunning scenery, wildlife, easy access to hiking and biking and so much more! This is the ideal hipcamp. Immaculately clean, exceptionally well equipped, and everything is done with quality in mind. I can't say enough good about every aspect of this treasure. It is truly a very special spot. Add to that a great host and the natural beauty of the McKenzie Bridge region, the McKenzie River, and the Willamette National Forest and you have a world class Hipcamp. Best I have stayed at, I highly recommend!

This was such a beautiful and serene little place! There are multiple little areas for campers but we happened to have the place all to ourselves which is just how I’d prefer it. We had our camper but we could have shown up with nothing but our tents, blankets, clothes and food. There are camping supplies, soft lighting, comfortable outdoor furniture, a clean porta potty, clean outdoor shower (with instant hot water!), an outdoor sink with running water, shade and privacy. Even though the major Flat fire was right next to us and we lost water for a bit, it was one of my most favorite camping trips! We were right near Lake Billy Chinook & Three Rivers and a little store/gas station. Susan is the best host! She is so kind and responsive and it’s apparent she takes great pride in the look and care of this magical little place. We will definitely be back!

Just as pictured, this place has everything you need for cooking, relaxing and fun. Good communication and lots of private space. We camped and our tent fit well and didn’t get too hot even thought it was a heat wave in the high desert!

My daughter and I spent a great afternoon and night there after a long day of hiking. We had a large private area with chairs, lights and a water feature. Our host was most gracious. 10/10

My daughter and I stayed here after three days hiking. It’s a quiet, spacious spot on green grass, with privacy and a clean bathroom. WiFi was a plus and worked great. Don’t let the title fool you, the cows grazing around with the calves playing were a great part of the experience and not a bother at all. 10/10

A beautiful secluded area. Grass was green and plush. Scenic ranch setting with lights, power if needed, WiFi and potable water. Star gazing was amazing on a clear night.

This is the second time I've stayed at The Farm at Castle Rock. It is a peaceful and beautiful place with abundant wildlife and with plentiful birdhouses and bird feeders. The grounds and facilities are clean and well-tended. Each of the three campsites are well-separated from each other for maximum privacy.

We had a wonderful experience trailer camping at Makenzie’s ranch. The spot was very easy to access, yet felt very comfortable and private. We appreciated the access to electric hookup and water pump, and the table and chairs set up to eat our breakfast watching the cows in the morning! We would definitely stay here again next time we are in the Bend area!

Absolutely perfect. I miss it already. They have set up all the amenities, including the kitchen area, living room, area, private shower, covered area with the camp to stay out of too much sun. It’s very pleasant and just a short drive down to the upper state use area where I was able to play on Lake Billy chinook All day.

The place was great. Julie is Mckenzie‘s mother the place that we parked or camp was away from everybody. It was easy access in and out. Be wary of the roundabouts in band lol and we have a 35 foot trailer. It was a level spot we just put our stabilizers out and they even have power and water that you can use as needed And it’s beautiful where they live and very quiet and peaceful. I would definitely go back there again thanks Julie and Mckenzie.

This was such a delightful place to camp for the night. A little out of the way, but well worth it. We were greeted with such a warm welcome. There was a pond near our site that our kids loved exploring, and they loved seeing the cows when they woke up in the morning. It was so charming and very private. We loved our stay!

Where to go
Bend
Central Oregon’s largest city, Bend, is just a short drive from Camp Sherman. Here you’ll find great dining, hiking, and boating opportunities, as well as easy access to the ski resort at Mount Bachelor.
Central Oregon Rock Formations
Camp Sherman puts you within an easy drive of some of Central Oregon’s most spectacular rock formations. Highlights include the nearby Oregon hoodoos and the rock-climbing hot spot of Smith Rock.
The Mt. Jefferson Wilderness
Spread out over nearly 105,000 acres, this protected wilderness area features soaring peaks strewn with lush fir and pine trees and the occasional alpine lake. It's particularly popular with backpackers, so make sure to secure a permit before you head out.
When to go
Camp Sherman is at its busiest in the summer months, and if you want to visit between mid-June and Labor Day, it’s a good idea to book your campsite well in advance. The summertime temperatures here are warm, but not unbearable, and the presence of the Metolius River definitely cools things down. For a quieter time, consider coming in April, May, September, or October, when temperatures are generally pleasant enough for camping, but crowds are fewer.
