Enjoy a summer of camping!
Browns Camp and Jordan Creek Campgrounds on the Tillamook State Forest have now officially opened for the 2025 season.
Other primitive OHV camping and staging areas, such as Lyda Camp, South Fork Trask, and Jordan Creek Designated Dispersed Camping Areas, are also open.
Diamond Mill OHV Campground and Cedar Creek Designated Dispersed Sites are still closed until further notice due to timber sale operations.
Enjoy the trails!
The Oregon Department of Forestry has closed some campgrounds on the Clatsop, Tillamook, and Santiam state forests as it does each year as part of its transition to winter operations. On Oct. 7 all seasonal developed campgrounds were closed and will soon be followed by the closure of all seasonal Off Highway Vehicle (OHV) campgrounds on Oct. 31. One exception to the closure plan will be Northrup Creek Horse Camp Campground in the Clatsop State Forest, which will remain open until Nov. 30.
Even with the closures, some camping opportunities will remain open and available through the winter months. More information on recreation opportunities at State Forest campgrounds can be found on the ODF webpage or on the campgrounds tab of this blog.
