Pioneer Ford Campground

Nestled along the banks of the scenic Metolius River, Pioneer Ford Campground offers a serene escape in the heart of the Pacific Northwest. The campground is celebrated for its peaceful atmosphere, with many sites providing excellent privacy tucked away beneath a lush canopy of pine and cedar trees. As one of the more isolated locations in the Metolius area, it serves as an ideal retreat for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the tranquil sounds of the river.

The terrain is well-suited for both tent and RV camping, offering a natural setting that feels deeply connected to the surrounding forest. Visitors have direct access to the river for fishing, as well as a network of nearby hiking and biking trails to explore the rugged landscape. The facility provides essential amenities, including vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings at each site.

This campground is best suited for campers who appreciate a moderate experience level and enjoy a more rustic, off-grid environment. Whether you are seeking a quiet weekend of fishing or a basecamp for your Pacific Northwest hiking adventures, Pioneer Ford provides a classic USFS camping experience in a beautiful, forested setting.
