Riverside at Devil's Canyon Campground

This small and off-the-beaten-track campground features three walk-in campsites and a small day use site. Campsite number three is set apart from the others, providing an elusive experience of solitude in a developed campground. The campsites are situated above a thin green strip of lush vegetation and have limited access to the Deschutes Wild and Scenic River.
