All Sites are First Come - First Served

     Candle Creek is the last campground that you come to on the Metolius River. It is the most  isolated of the campgrounds and although it was just upgraded in 2003 it is the least developed campground . It is located 13 miles in from Hwy 20 at the Camp Sherman turn off. This is a very popular campground with the locals because of its location. It is at the end of the Metolius Valley and on the river where the rapids start. You get to it by crossing the river at Lower Bridge and continuing along a mostly gravel road for two more miles.

     For those of you who miss the ability to take a shower or use the laundry or even need an RV dump these amenities are available for a fee at Hoodoo's Black Butte RV and Motel (aka. Camp Sherman RV Park). Black Butte RV Park is located next to the school as you enter Camp Sherman. The host will be glad to help with questions about the campgrounds as well. On crowded weekends he may have information about which campgrounds still have sites available. Also an RV dump is available at the Hoodoo Lodge from 9AM to 4PM.

      There is one vault CXT toilet and no water system.

This is normally an non-hosted campground, but an attendant will visit two to four times per day.
