About This Location
Experience history at Eagle Creek Campground, the first developed USFS site in the nation, offering easy access to iconic Pacific Northwest hiking trails.
Steeped in history, Eagle Creek Campground holds the distinction of being the first developed campground within the U.S. Forest Service system. Nestled among towering trees, the site offers a unique connection to the origins of forest recreation. The layout features well-spaced campsites that provide a sense of privacy, allowing campers to immerse themselves in the lush, green surroundings of the Pacific Northwest. Please note that the campground sits on a bluff overlooking Interstate 84 and active railroad tracks, so guests should expect some ambient noise during their stay.
This location serves as a premier basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts, offering direct access to the renowned Eagle Creek Trail and various other hiking and road biking paths. While the campground provides a rustic, off-grid experience with no hookups, it is an ideal destination for those who prioritize proximity to nature and world-class trails over modern amenities. The site is best suited for tent campers and self-contained RV travelers who enjoy a moderate-level outdoor experience and are looking to explore the scenic beauty of the Columbia River Gorge year-round.
