Life with Spock
I planned on doing the Highway of Waterfalls. Unfortunately, my travels coincided with the government shutdown and it was impossible to make reservations. This was my first stop and there was a camp host who instructed me to pick any unoccupied site and pay at the Iron Ranger. It's a beautiful campground, the restroom and individual showers were spotless. I used Susan Creek CG as a base to hike Emerald Trail from the CG to Susan Creek Falls and drive to Fall Creek Falls.

Wonderfully clean and quiet campground. Site 6 was fantastic. Clean showers and bathrooms though no hand soap the week we stayed. The Umpqua River below is accessible with hardly anyone around even in the middle of summer. Nearby trail to Susan falls was great and u can walk from campground. Tons of poison oak on that path so be careful.

Great campground. Sites are reasonably private. I’ve seen worse and I’ve seen better. There are paths to the N Umpqua River (a 3 minute walk). Be aware of poison oak in some places. Clean flush toilets and showers, and water and wastewater facilities are available.

The camp sites were above average, being exceptionally clean. Sites were private with trees between each site. Bathrooms and showers were clean. Many campsites had trails leading to the river. Even if your site did not have a personal trail there were other trails available to all. Market right down the road. Lots of close hiking and scenic trails. Fishing....fly fishing only at camp site trails. Regular fishing nearby. Birdwatching, swimming, biking. And again a very good host. Firewood on site only $5 a bundle. Will go again.

This weekend was the second time I've been to Susan Creek and it is always a lovely stay. The bathrooms and showers are well maintained, and clean. This time, they did not have much fire wood available, but the camp host stated that he could split some of they ran out.

Nice spot with flush toilets and showers. Plenty of campsites that are close, but plenty of trees and shrubs for quiet. We looked at sites 6 and 7. They had a beautiful set up on the creek, close to the trailhead to go to the Susan falls area, but they were by the entry away from the bathrooms so we got spot 22 in the back. Right by the horseshoes and "amphitheater" with a short walk to the creek. It was right by the bathrooms, but that just meant we had lights skimming on us all night. We'r would still book thre same spot tho...

I would give it 5 stars but the showers were closed when we were there. Nice area next to a creek which makes for great white noise and clean bathrooms and flushing toilets. 29 dollars a night for tent camping. No cellphone service

Very easy to get to. Plenty of parking. Short distance to get to the water but very beautiful and worth it!

What a beautiful & serene campground. I hope & pray it doesn't get burned away, like all the other campgrounds, that surround it have. Little amphitheatre, a short walk to the water, horseshoe pits, lots of firewood to buy, (when & if we are allowed to have campfires again) super clean & tidy bathrooms, showers are not able to be used right now, showers are closed until further notice, this may be a Covid thing. The camp sites are very spacious & lots of parking. Due to the Jack fire, the campground may also be closed now. It was open on Tuesday & all spots had been reserved or were occupied. I can't wait for these forest fires to end, it all breaks my heart deeply. The loss of lives, homes, land & livelihoods is quite sad. This campground is on the top of my list to visit, once all is well. Bless the Firefighters, the Camp Hosts & Camper's to keep them all safe. I have also included some photos of the surrounding area that was burned previously, as well as smoke clouds from the current Jack Fire.

Always have a good time. The showers are not open as it adheres to federal Covid guidelines. Hopefully the guidelines will allow showers to be open soon. Aside from this, the place is beautiful and mostly untouched by the fires last year.
