Steamboat Falls Campground

This campground offers excellent scenery. Although Steamboat Creek is closed to all fishing, summer visitors often see large steelhead trout attempting to jump the falls during their spawning runs. The campground is on the other side of Steamboat Creek from Steamboat Road. Towering fir trees shade the campsites, making it feel as if you are further away from the North Umpqua Highway. The trailhead for the 5.5-mile Mott segment of the North Umpqua Trail is about 6 miles southwest of the campground. Facilities • 7 campsites with picnic tables and fire pits • 3 tent campsites with picnic tables and fire pits • No drinking water • Horseshoe pits • Baseball fields • Vault toilet • Garbage disposal
