Go if

Anglers and backpackers who want a quiet base camp near the Eagle Cap Wilderness. The Lostine River runs right through camp, fishing improves after snowmelt settles in July, and three sites means it stays uncrowded on weekdays.

Skip if

No showers, flush toilets, or hookups of any kind. With only three sites, any weekend arrival without a reservation is a gamble, and fall scores drop noticeably once canyon conditions tighten after September.
