Fisherman's Bend Recreation Site

  Most of the time camping on BLM land means finding a nice dispersed camping location. Occasionally an established campground pops up but these are usually primitive with nothing more than tables and vault toilets. Fisherman’s Bend is quite different - it has hot showers, electric hookups, a dump station, and potable water.

   All of the sites are designated as accessible which means they have tables with extended tops and wide parking pads. The living areas are large and surfaced with finely crushed stone. Most are fairly level. The sites are spaced nicely and separated by trees and bushes to provide a degree of privacy.
   Several miles of trails loop through the trees and along the river. Two 1000’ sections are paved and accessible. Access them from the picnic area parking lot and from the River Loop across from the camp host’s site. Campground  44.75703, -122.51645

  1. Looks very nice. Is there a charge at this one?

    1. Yes, but it's half price for anyone with an Access or Senior pass - $11.00, I think for electric and sewer. Full hookup sites are $14.00 with a pass.
