Welcome to Molalla Ripple! Enjoy the sound of the Molalla River rolling over the rocks. Wake up to birds chirping and tall trees swaying in the breeze. The campsites are sixty feet apart for privacy and one path leads to the river with two private beach areas to relax. NOTE, Please use the clean bathrooms provided. DO NOT USE THE WOODS or camp site as your bathroom room. Thank you, let's keep things clean and safe for others to enjoy! Jsm Ranch started in 2004 when we moved from Oregon City. This once was a working farm with two chicken barns and a meat locker barn. All had been fallen into disrepair before taking owner ship. In 2007 we planted 200 tree's and 100 shrubs to build a new fish and wildlife habitat along Woodcock Creek. We then focused on building fence along the Molalla River to protect water quality. From there, we started raising Black Angus in 2008 after spending four years cleaning up the fields to make it safe for animals. We strive to be good stewards with our land as we continue to work with Clackamas Soil and Water to make better working lands. You're only minutes away from the town of Molalla to grab a bite, groceries or other camp items. Also have Molalla Rodeo just 3 minutes away on July 1-4th. You won't be disappointed for a great breakfast at Tammy D's (Mulino, OR), sandwiches at Humble Pig or pizza at Bear Creek Pizza & Pub.

Site 2 MR
Camping by the Water!
Had a great time camping with my daughter in site 2. The site has a short path right to the river and we had a picnic by the water which was awesome. The host Jim and his daughter were incredibly nice and accommodating. The site was well maintained and clean and the shower was a great perk! I will be back!

Site 1 MR
Great place! Took my kid camping here and we had a wonderful time. The river was close to the site and beautiful. Even though we were the closest site to the entrance we had privacy and quiet. Was cool to see the cows too!

Site 6 Mollala Ripple
We loved our stay in James’ land! Such a cute serene spot with wonderful amenities. The sites are far enough away from each other to give you and your group privacy. James and Sam were so friendly and helpful and made sure we had all the information we needed to have a great stay. We will definitely be back!

I love van camping at Molalla Ripple! Site 1 is large and very private. A nice shady spot on a hot day!

Soulful feet in river experience!
My gal and I were looking for a nearby camping experience to getaway and celebrate an anniversary. Our goals were to put our feet in the river, have a real campfire, and enjoy a little privacy. We spent the extra money for the campsite right along the river and it was worth it! The host James was friendly, quick to respond and super accommodating. We are already looking forward to coming back with friends.

Great for a large camping trip!
The host was friendly, property is phenomenal, we had a large group and there was plenty of room for everyone. The kids loved that they were able to pick up fallen apples to feed to the animals. The creek/river was great, very shallow for the kids(it is smooth rocks mostly but pretty slick, recommend swim shoes) but just a little further down we were able to swim a bit and even use the property paddle boat. Definitely a great time and we will be back!
