It's a nice place, clean and quiet, I just think $75 a night is a little steep, $55 as a pass through would work.

Great location for people who want to be in walking distance of the cute town of Sisters. It was easy to show up, set up camp, and then walk to everything we needed before retiring for the evening. Appreciated the access to the house for a bathroom, and the offer of shower, laundry, and food, even though we didn't need them this trip. Sweet dog Lily was a plus too. Campsite itself was as advertised and we were able to put up two tents and a hammock. Would come back.

I was looking for a safe, quiet place to camp for the night and Drew’s place was exactly what I was looking for. I appreciated being able to use a real bathroom. Drew was friendly and I appreciated the warm welcome even though I arrived in the dark.

Drew was very nice and available if needed. His house is a short walk to the shopping area of Sisters. We'll definitely try to stay there again next time we're in town!

Had a very comfortable stay here. The host Drew was very accommodating by allowing us to use one of his bedrooms since it rained all over our tent.

Great spot for a night in the car and not having to worry about parking at a store. Host was very nice and helpful, was even awake when we got there late at night. House might look a little iffy at first but we were surprised how easy it was to just walk in to use the bathroom. Dog is adorable!

Tina, was a very kind host and her and her friends were so helpful!! They were kind and informative. They offered breakfast burritos Saturday morning for a cheap price. They also offered a shuttle service for the festival which turned out to be the most helpful part of the whole stay!! Bathrooms and the property were clean. Highly recommend!!

Tina’s space was open and beautiful with plenty of space to setup camp. The check in process was a breeze, the location was easy to find, and she greeted us upon arrival. We setup by a little creek and loved being able to hear the water flowing. The open sky was picturesque. The offered shuttle service to and from the fairgrounds was extremely well run by Tina and company. I would recommend staying here and plan to stay here again if I go to next year’s festival. Everything felt efficient and very coordinated.

Fest Fun was a great find. Easy to get to festival with shuttle. Wide open and many places to pitch my tent.
Tina and Yante (sp?) were great hosts. Well kept site with everything I needed. Best part was the Saturday morning breakfast burritos prepped by a couple of young entrepeneurs. I strongly recommend Festival Fun when you're near Redmond.

We came with our campervan for the Fairwell Festival and this was a gem of a place to stay. Its green with trees, and a backyard of chairs and hammocks under tall shade trees which was all offered to guests. These guys worked hard with shuttles for campers to and from the festival all day and night. The campsite is quiet and the hosts are some of the nicest people in the world.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for the fairwell festival this year and we absolutely loved the property extremely quiet hosts are very kind and there was plenty of accommodations such as plenty of restrooms a shuttle to the event and they even offered an outdoor shower for use. Our second morning there they also had breakfast burritos for sale which was extremely convenient, offered to allow us to charge our cellphones in their home and had available water from their home as well. Would definitely recommend them and would gladly return for the stay here during festival again.

Tina and Yonty had a wonderful setup and experience set up for Hipcampers. Plenty of land and shaded area, water available, awesome little creek going through the property, and they even had a father and sons team cooking breakfast burritos one of the days I was there. Would absolutely stay again!

The best luxury RV camping in Wickiup Reservoir guide
Notable campgrounds
- Best for groups: Gull Point Campground has two group campsites for up to 30 people.
- Best for anglers: Reservoir Campground offers direct access to the water.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Reservations for the can be made directly through the Forest Service, either online using recreation.gov or over the phone. Campsites open up for reservation six months in advance, at 6 am.
- The peak season runs from the end of May until the end of September. Outside of that time, campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
- If you can’t find a spot at Wickiup, note that there are still tons of places to camp in the area, both in nearby state parks, on BLM land, and at privately run Hipcamps.
When to go
The best time to visit Wickiup Reservoir is in late spring or early autumn, when the weather is warm and dry and the crowds are fewer. July and August are also great months if you like warm weather, but the reservoir and area campgrounds can get very busy with summer vacationers. Accessing the area during the cold winter months can be challenging due to heavy snowfall.
Know before you go
- The easiest place to pick up groceries and other supplies is the town of La Pine, about a half-hour drive from the reservoir.
- Do not enter the water during cyanobacteria (harmful algae) blooms. The forest service puts out alerts about blooms, but it's always a good idea to do a visual check just in case. Water that looks foamy or thick and is a green, blue, or brownish-read color should be avoided.
- Forest fires are an issue in this part of the forest, and bans on fires and even some types of cooking devices are not uncommon. Check before igniting anything.
