Canyon Creek

Canyon Creek is a campground. Verified visitor comments reference hiking access to a fish hatchery and views of the river and rapids near the camp area.

Review excerpts mention on-site facilities and their limitations: reviewers report there was no water service and no garbage can, and that the only toilet was a small vaulted toilet. Those observations come directly from visitor reports and describe the facilities as noted by reviewers.

Reviewers describe the campground as being next to a bend in the Metolius River and note good access to the Metolius River Trail and to the Wizard Falls fish hatchery via a hike. Some reviewers praised the nearby hike and the views of the river and rapids, with at least one commenter saying they ended up enjoying the site and planned to return. Other reviewers reported that the campground’s number of sites had been reduced by the forest service; one reviewer expressed concern that the reduction could push people into dispersed areas and increase fire risk. Additional comments included that the creek and river were running fast and deep and that, based on those conditions and available facilities, the site was not a great spot for children according to one reviewer.

Reviewer feedback includes positive notes about hiking and river views alongside concerns about reduced site capacity and limited facilities as described above.
