About
BLM campground. Oregon’s Smith River forms in the Coast Range and flows about 50 miles west, emptying into the Pacific Ocean just north of Reedsport, Oregon. This site offers camping right next to the river, just above the falls. This peaceful, old-growth forest setting provides an ideal place to picnic, wade, fish, and watch for bald eagles.
Stay limit: 14 Days.
