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. NOTE, Please use the clean bathrooms provided. DO NOT USE THE WOODS or camp site as your bathroom. Thank you, let's keep things clean and safe for others to enjoy! We are forced to require our guests to pay a cleaning fee that's refundable after your stay. Please add the extra to your booking. We have tried to work with our guests to offer trash service, yet campers leave more than we can handle or clean before our next guest arrives. This is our home and property that we want to share, so let us work together to keep it clean and safe. Thank you from the Toops Family 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 trees 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 Splat Action Paintball is just five minutes away. Open all year. -March 21 – April 27, 2025 Wooden Shoe Tulip Festival Camp with us while you visit. Just twenty minutes away or thirteen miles. -July 1-4th. The Molalla train park! 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.

Camping by the Molalla River offers a serene escape with well-maintained sites and friendly hosts. The riverfront locations are particularly praised, providing a peaceful ambiance where guests often spot local wildlife like eagles and chipmunks. Campers appreciate the clean facilities and safety measures in place, such as gated access. While most feedback is positive, a few guests noted the proximity of campsites might affect privacy during busier times.

Host was super friendly and the sites were well maintained. It was a little rainy the weekend we came out and our host brought us some hay to lay out to help keep things from getting too sloppy. Super easy to find the campsite and fun to walk around the property and river close by

Site 5 MR
My stay was very enjoyable. Very clean camping sites, with the peaceful surroundings allowed my wife and i to relax on a safe camping trip. The security gate was comforting, and the tables provided were a very pleasant surprise. It was really nice being right on the river, and the trees giving shade were perfect.

This was a great location to try out our new gear setup. Very easy to enter and access with great communication and instructions. Our site was perfectly situated right next to the river and we enjoyed a relaxing stay for the night. Conveniently located close to Portland for a quick escape. Would definitely return.

Site 7 MR
This property was beautiful!! We stayed on site 7. It was really nice being so close to the river. The wild life is stunning as well; we saw eagles, hawks, jays, chipmunks, western squirrels. The host, James, was very welcoming and hospitable! Will definitely be returning. The campsites are close together, but you still have a sense of privacy w the trees and bushes separating sites.
