The gorgeous waterfall offers a sought after swimming hole during hot days and leaping salmon in the fall months. Located on the edge of the Umpqua National Forest, at an elevation of 1050', most sites and swimming area sit under a canopy of fir, maple, and cedar trees for a shaded area on the creek.

Nearby Attractions

Just a few miles up Little River Road you will find the Wolf Creek Falls Trailhead. The 1.2 mile long Wolf Creek Falls trail follows a picturesque stream through an old growth forest to a cascading two-tier waterfall. River flows vary throughout the year as the falls plummet over 50 and 75 foot high rock cliffs before plunging into deep pools.

Within a short drive from the campground you can have opportunities for day of rafting on the North Umpqua, fishing, hiking, viewing waterfalls, or driving along the Rogue - Umpqua National Scenic Byway.
