Our Take
What makes Cobble Rock Campground special
Cobble Rock Campground delivers 14 shaded sites beneath mature ponderosa pines right along the Crooked Wild and Scenic River in Oregon's high desert canyon country. Direct river access is the headline feature — step out of camp and you are casting into some of the best redband trout water in the Pacific Northwest. The Lower Crooked Back Country Byway rolls past the campground, connecting a string of riverside camps that together form one of central Oregon's most scenic driving corridors. Canyon walls of layered basalt frame the river, and the interplay of desert light and dark pine forest creates a landscape that photographs beautifully at any hour. Year-round access means you can fish the winter midge hatches or enjoy the explosive spring caddis emergence. Summer visitors should prepare for heat and bring plenty of water. Sites fill on a first-come, first-served basis, with weekdays offering the best availability. Cobble Rock suits dedicated fly fishers, nature photographers, and anyone drawn to the quiet drama of Oregon's canyon country.
