Lost Valley Education Center

13 sites · Tents87 acres · Dexter, OR
We are a 501c3 non-profit, an education and event center and intentional community educating adults and youth in the practical application of sustainable living skills. We've occupied this land since 1988, but the buildings were constructed in the 70's by the previous organization called Shiloh Youth Revival Center. The land was once inhabited by the Kalapuya Indians as an oak Savanna - the meadow area was a sacred space for them, and we continue to honor that by not building or putting designated camping spots there. The lost valley area was named for a group of settlers that were almost "lost" on their journey here. People have described us a "destination all it's own" and come to learn and take their lessons to all areas of the Earth.

Fort Popham

1 site · RV, Tent14 acres · Gardiner, OR
It all started in the 70s when the Peek family would come to camp and play on this river. Then after some geographical changes to the family, they came back up the river starting in the mid-’90s, and this was a great family vacation destination. Even after we moved away after graduating from NBHS, every year, on the beautiful drive to and from the property, my wife and I would marvel at the perfection of the river scene and the many ferns and mosses growing everywhere. So much nicer than the coast most days. No cell service or wifi became a luxury as we worked hard building our dream life. This property is a part of what used to be just a dream for us; we hope you enjoy it as much as we have!

Waterfall camping near Monroe guide

Overview

Situated on the Long Tom River along Highway 99W, Monroe is a small city offering basic amenities for locals and people passing through. Here you’ll find a couple of small markets plus a farm store filled with fresh vegetables. Monroe is also a good base for exploring nearby natural areas, including the nearby Alsea Falls Recreation Site and the Salmonberry County Park & Campground. The William L Finley National Wildlife Refuge, just north of town, is also worth a visit and provides a haven for a wide variety of birds and animals.

Where to go

Oregon's Central Coast

Due west of Monroe, the Central Coast region features a mix of cities and forest areas, with plenty of camping opportunities both in state parks and on private land. It’s also a great spot for whale-watching, particularly in early winter and spring.  

Willamette Valley Wine Country

Oregon’s Willamette Valley is internationally known for its excellent pinots. There are tons of excellent wineries offering tours and tastings within a short drive of Monroe.

The Siuslaw National Forest

This 630,000-acre forest offers a mix of dense old-growth forest and coastal expanses. It's ideal for camping and hiking, with miles and miles of well-maintained trails plus a range of inland and Oceanside campgrounds.

When to go

Like much of Western Oregon, Monroe is best visited in the summertime, when temperatures soar and the chance of rain decreases dramatically. The busy season runs between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and July and August are particularly busy with campers, especially on the weekends. Come in September after kids are back in school if you want good weather without the crowds.
