Joshua's campsite by the Umpqua River is a spacious and scenic retreat that offers a sense of privacy even when other campers are around. Visitors appreciate the direct river access, making it ideal for swimming, fishing, and floating. While there is some road noise from the nearby highway, many guests find the natural beauty and amenities like swings and picnic tables outweigh this minor drawback. The site is particularly praised for its large, open spaces and the welcoming atmosphere created by the responsive host.

Amazing property! The sites are very spacious. The riverfront view is so beautiful! Everything was very clean and taken care of. We had a wonderful weekend kayaking and fishing. We will be back!

River Front Retreat #4

This was our first Hipcamp experience and we were very pleased. This space was welcoming, clean, and well kept. We happened to have the whole place to ourselves (and a large flock of Canadian geese), and it was the perfect place to unwind. The view was gorgeous as the leaves were just starting to turn, and the river really was mesmerizing to watch as the water level changed throughout the day with the tides. You could easily find shade or sun any time of day. While traffic noise was noticable, we didn't find it offensive. Most state campgrounds have the same background noise and are also close to highways. This would be a great place for a large family camping trip or friends weekend. Thank you to Joshua for sharing this space!

River Front Retreat #4

Great site directly on the Umpqua River. Although he has four sites, I was fortunate enough to be the only there with about 2-3 acres. The only draw back is Highway 20 noise 24/7. Despite traffic noise, I would return. Thanks Joshua

Fabulous large campsite on Umpqua River. Direct access to river for swimming and floating. We brought tubes and paddle boards and enjoyed it very much.

This was the perfect location for our annual camping trip. The kids loved playing in the water and climbing over the rocks. We were able to catch several fish and the kids loved how much space there was to play and the parents loved that we didn’t have to worry about bugging other people.

River Front Retreat #2

I found the river front retreat after the smoke from first fires thwarted our plans to camp outside of La Pine. My family and I were delighted to have access to the Umpqua River at the River Front Retreat! Joshua the host was responsive and informative. The campsites were spacious with access to sunshine and shade. My grandkids loved the swings and we all floated the river and high tide, hunting for agates and lower tides. I loved sitting at the river front watching the geese and enjoying the peacefulness. The reviews were accurate-some highway noise did not overshadow the other aspects: clean and close-by honey buckets, trash can, horse shoe toss, swings, and shared river front access! I highly recommend River Front Retreat!!
