Tygh Creek campsite
Our families had a great time at Justesen Ranches! Plenty of space to spread out, creek access (though entry is a little muddy and the creek is shallow), and the kids enjoyed waking up to the cows mooing :)
Not much shade for those in campers, but tents were able to stay cool tucked up by the trees near the creek.

This little spot is a peaceful oasis! You have a whole meadow to yourself which borders several small spring fed ponds. They looked mucky at first but they were quite clear and clean. Our dog loved dipping his feet. So many relaxing noises- birds singing, water flowing, frogs at night. The star display was incredible. As others have mentioned, the mosquito situation is no joke but we lit several citronella candles and it seemed to work nicely. This spot would work for a big group or individual campers if you want to unplug. We brought our tent trailer and it was easy to find a level spot. There are zero amenities in this location but we didn't need anything. This weekend was just ultimate relaxation for us! Oh, and Amanda was awesome about answering our questions ahead of time. It felt a little weird driving through the field at first but if you follow the directions, it will take you straight there. Just keep driving until you're in the meadow and can't drive any more!

This place was exactly what we wanted. We originally booked a different site thinking we had to since we don’t have a self-contained camp toilet with our popup tent camper, but Amanda read my booking request message about how we wanted to escape to nature and enjoying a chill private weekend outdoors and recommended this site instead.
The wildflowers were beautiful, the birds were singing, the lake was gorgeous for sunset, and we didn’t see or hear another person the entire weekend (even though it was super busy Memorial Day weekend)! The frogs were also out in force to help lull us to sleep.
If you’re comfortable boondocking and want a peaceful place to get away from people, this spot is amazing. Only 1.5 hrs from bend was a nice plus too. Thanks for the suggestion, Amanda!

Very private and relaxing. Pond had lots of birds and wildlife for viewing. Was a great space to camp, paddle board and just get away. Will definitely be returning.

Great place, super clean. It also happens to be outside of Portland's horrible light pollution, giving fabulous Milky Way views. The biggest downsides are that there isn't an A/C (which is mentioned in the property's listing) and the outside floodlight does not have a switch accessible to turn it off. FYI - There is a taxidermied deer head on the wall, which is shown in the pics.
There are many wonderful things about this place - starting with the location. If you want to be away from people with great views of the sky then you will love this place. The kitchen is well stocked, the bathroom and shower are very clean. The queen bed isn't bad at all and the kitchen is well stocked. I imagine if all the bunks were filled with people it would be pretty snug in there. There is a small TV with Dish.
Finally Verizon cell service is bad inside the cabin, but outside we got a good 4G signal.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and will return.

Such a fun spot! Great for groups. Great spots for hammocks. The grass is very nicely maintained. The stars are so beautiful at night! The water was cold and mid thigh level but felt great over the hot weekend! Bring tubes to float down the river! Such a great spot, definitely will be back!

Property is gorgeous and there’s plenty of critters to watch. This time of year the bugs are going pretty good so be prepared especially for the wasps.
Stars incredible out here. I do wish you could fish the river but plenty of other stuff to do

We had a large group and everyone was able to find a flat, soft, grassy spot in the shade for their tents. We could all spread out for privacy too. The meadow and hill side were incredibly beautiful and we saw deer every night. There is a store and restaurant near by so that was convenient. What I liked best was that we weren’t being harassed by a camp host to stop talking after 10:00. We see each other, at most once a year, and we have a blast. The host seemed to totally understand what we needed and was very easy to work with. It was so simple. Camping with such a large group can be challenging but this place was absolutely perfect for our group and I can’t wait until next year! We’d love to go back.

Lower Twin Lake Campsite
The site and the countryside is beautiful. The access road is almost impassible with ruts even for a medium sized class b RV like ours. It’s also a long, difficult drive from rafting launch points despite it’s apparent proximity

Magnificent spot. Tucked away in the middle of nowhere with a beautiful lake. We spent our whole trip pretty much floating. We had enough space for our whole group! BRING BUG SPRAY.

We had great relaxing weekend at the lower twin lake. Weather was great and the water was refreshing. One day we enjoyed a nice, scenic drive to Maupin and had lunch at Mt Hood brewery. Atmosphere, food, and beer was real good. We didn't see any mosquito but there was (I think) small horse flies, that bit. It was what we needed, we'll be back next year.

It's a great spot, I wish I had more time to explore it!

What a beautiful spot to camp. The lake was so nice, which we swam and fished in non stop. The bass fishing was a blast. Very private, you only hear the odd vehicle passing by on the road. Locked gate, and literally you own pond and area to enjoy. Amanda had the grass in the area cut nice and short, which deters and also helps you see if there are any critters in the area. Was such a great trip and I’m sure we will be back, thank you for sharing this beautiful piece of your property.

Really magical property! I threw my 30th birthday party here and we rented both site 2 & 3 and it was perfect. We used site 2 (the apple tree site) for activities and spent most of our time here and we used site 1 as “tent village” we hosted a group of 30 and had PLENTY of space.
The property is truly magical. So if you’re visiting, take care of it because we plan to come back. New porta potties were delivered on our first day so they were fresh for our group. Communication was easy, finding the spot was easy.
A few things to note;
1. It’s very buggy. We were there in late June and boy howdy did we get eaten up. Bring thermacells and bug spray!! The host let us know ahead of time and we were grateful to have the heads up.
2. We had service! Which was a surprise but we did.
3. The river swimming spot was a short walk from site 2.
4. Bring shade ! Site 2 has some lovely trees but that’s also where the bugs are. We were lucky to have brought 3 shade tents and that was clutch.

We had an amazing stay at the Granary Cabin! It surpassed all our expectations. It was equipped with an AC unit to keep us cool during the summer heat, the kitchen was well stocked, and the decor had a cozy and rustic charm that made the place extra special.
Amanda, the host, was fantastic—easy to communicate with and quick to respond to our messages. Thanks, Amanda!
For those who love fly-fishing, I highly recommend adding on their fly-fishing extra! It might seem a bit pricey, but it’s worth every penny. The lakes are full of aggressive 20”+ trout that put up a good fight!

What a lovely spot. A series of little ponds connected by a creek. Beautiful views, and plenty of flat grass and shade. Lots of elbow room.

My third (or maybe fourth?) time here. It’s a great spot in the middle of not much other than wide open views and beautiful rolling hills. It’s the perfect place to relax away from it all.

Lower Lake - Quiet and Relaxing
8 ft pop-up camper · With kids ·
Lower Twin Lake Campsite
We had a relaxing visit to the Lower Lake campsite. While we tent camped just fine, if you have more than one tent, it's best for trailers or campers as there is limited flat space. My kids had fun swimming and kayaking in the lake. We visited White River Falls State Park which was beautiful - good to visit on the way (if coming from the West) or for a day trip. Short, but scenic hike to see the majority of the falls. Incredible stars on the first night! Good to know - Lake is a natural spring so it's mucky, and shared with some geese. This didn't bother us. It's moderately buggy- like any campsite next to a water source. Bring bug spray and wear long pants at dusk.

This spot is special. Lots of space between sites (can’t see other campers) and a small private beach on a sweet swimming hole. Privacy and feels like you’re away from the world when you’re just off the road. Do not underestimate the ferociousness of the mosquitoes and bugs in summer!

Beautiful Property in a gorgeous part of Oregon. We came with 5 little kids so I had a lot of questions about the setup and Amanda was super kind and responsive in helping us make sure we had a great weekend!
There were a lot of mosquitos, so come prepared for that and you'll have a wonderful trip!

Great little spot with access to the creek, cool view of Mt Hood in the distance, and beautiful stars! We loved being the only campers in the vicinity as did purr dog. Porta potty was clean and easily accessible. Directions were spot on.
