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. 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 5 MR

A great experience!

The stay in Site 5 was great. We have a small trailer and we're able to issues it to take full advantage of the river and beautiful sunsets. James was very attentive and addressed all questions we had promptly. I was skeptical of the portable shower and wash area, but was pleasantly surprised. It was super clean, and worked out just great. I hope we're able to return for a longer visit next time.

Amazing camping trip

We had an amazing time. The property was beautiful. Our camp was right on the river. The communal beach area is absolutely awesome. The host was super friendly and attentive to our needs. We went over a holiday weekend and his property was full. The bathrooms and shower were clean until the last day which is to be expected. Some campsites have a jacuzzis at them. Definitely going to get one at our sit next time we go. Absolutely no complaints loved our stay.
