Our Take
What makes Stillwater Campground special
Stillwater Campground sits right along the Lower Crooked Wild and Scenic River in the high desert outside Prineville, Oregon, offering ten generously sized pull-through sites that can handle larger rigs without feeling cramped. What sets this place apart is the combination of solitude and river access — you can cast a line for redband trout steps from your site, paddle the gentle current, or simply watch ospreys hunt at dusk. The landscape is juniper-studded rimrock with big open skies, and the year-round access means you can enjoy crisp fall mornings or spring wildflower season without fighting for a spot. Bring all your own water, as there is none on-site, and pack out everything you bring in. A full cooler and a couple of extra water jugs go a long way out here. This campground is ideal for self-sufficient travelers, anglers, and anyone who wants a quiet basecamp away from the crowds of Central Oregon's more popular destinations.
