About Wolf Creek Group Site

Overview

Wolf Creek Group Campground is set near the banks of Little River with a large open area hemmed in by a canopy of forest, providing a perfect setting for family reunions, celebrations or group getaways.

Recreation

Running nearly parallel to the North Umpqua River is the popular North Umpqua Trail. This 79 mile National Recreation Trail offers a trek for every ability. Mountain bikers won't feel left out as there are many opportunities to test your riding skills. Several trailheads can be accessed in the vicinity of the campground. In most places the trail travels near the river, allowing you to hike or ride with the sound of rapids and picturesque views spurring you on. Passing through lush forests, old-growth trees, and rocky bluffs, you will also occasionally get a bird's eye view of the river.

Facilities

This campground has one large reserve only site able to accommodate up to 150 people. The site is equipped with several picnic tables, a shelter with a fireplace, campfire rings, grills, flush toilets and drinking water. Access to the Little River is within walking distance. A ball field, volleyball court and horseshoe pits are also on-site.

Natural Features

Visitors to Umpqua National Forest are often taken aback by the unique landscapes of southwestern Oregon. Explosive geologic events have shaped the distinctive landscape on the nearly 1 million-acre forest, and provide spectacular scenery as well as an abundance of natural and cultural resources.

Diverse ecosystems support a wide range of habitat for wildlife common to the area. From eagles and owls, to salamanders and salmon, these species, along with many others, depend on surrounding undeveloped wilderness, clean streams and diverse forests to live.

Nearby Attractions

Visitors may want to take some time to visit nearby Yakso Falls and Grotto Falls; both are easy hikes which show how varied waterfalls can be. Visitors also enjoy the 172 miles of diverse river and mountain landscapes along the Rogue-Umpqua National Scenic Byway. The scenic drive travels from rolling oak-covered hills and towering coniferous forests to roaring white water rapids and incised intercanyon lava flows. The highway travels alongside the Upper Rogue and North Umpqua Wild and Scenic Rivers that contain world-class fisheries.

Hike to Susan Creek Falls

Douglas County, Oregon

4.0

1.9 mi / 434 ft gain

This hike starts at the main parking lot about a mile away from the falls. The falls are accessed via a very easy, well graded trail developed and maintained by the Oregon BLM.The hike through the forest and pine trees make it for a fantastic and fairy tale-like hike. When you arrive at Susan Creek Falls, picnic tables are provided for a nice morning/afternoon/evening destination for a family o...

South Umpqua Falls

Tiller, Oregon

If you are early enough, you can park at the designated day use parking area, which is where the bathroom is. There are picnic benches there along with a path to the top of the falls. If you want to be where the real action is, take the dirt trail down to the bottom of the falls which is less than 1/4 mile hike. There is a slight incline but nothing too worrisome for even the novice hiker. Yo...

Toketee Falls

Clearwater, Oregon

4.6

0.79 mi / 98 ft gain

Toketee Falls is one of the most famous waterfalls in all of Oregon, renowned for the graceful columnar basalt formation framing the two-stepped falls. The North Umpqua River has carved a sinuous gorge out of the lava flow, resulting in a waterfall of 113 feet in height - a 28 foot upper tier which plunges into a pool flanked by a deep alcove, followed by an 85 foot plunge into a large pool. At...

Watson Falls

Idleyld Park, Oregon

4.3

0.54 mi / 515 ft gain

Watson Falls hurtles over a cathedral amphitheater wall of basalt, crashing into a long talus slope covered in moss and vine maple. At 272 feet, Watson Falls is the 3rd tallest waterfall in Oregon. We actually stumbled upon Watson Falls driving back from Toketee Falls. The parking area is about 500 feet south of Highway 138 on the right side. The trail crosses Road 37 and climbs 0.33 miles up ...

Umpqua Hot Springs

Douglas County, Oregon

3.7

0.52 mi / 108 ft gain

When you arrive at the hot springs you'll see a bathroom and large dumpster in a small gravel parking lot. From the parking lot you'll see a bridge which leads to the trail up to the springs. Its a 0.25 mile walk up to seven different pools, sitting 150ft. above the North Umpqua River. All the hot springs set the perfect soaking vibe with a variety of sizes, temperatures and an excellent view. ...

Whitehorse Falls

Idleyld Park, Oregon

3.0

In June of 2015, I visited as many remote waterfall locations in Oregon as I could find. Whitehorse Falls, located along the Clearwater River in Douglas County, was one of those on my list. It's a small waterfall that is just off highway 138 (about 4.5 miles east of Toketee Falls) in Central Oregon. It's a true hidden gem that doesn't get a lot of visitors or attention. But it should. It's a wo...
