** Perry South's fee increases during the last week in May or some campgrounds stay open in the winter and have lower rates then such as Crescent Lake, Camp Sherman, Allen Springs, and Pine Rest.

During the winter we do keep three campgrounds open in the Metolius area in Camp Sherman.  In addition we have RV hookup campgrounds available at Patio RV, Black Butte RV, Dexter Shores RV, Crescent Junction RV and at Hoodoo Ski Area.  USFS campground fees include a County Room Tax and a state Tourism Tax that are normally add-ons in other overnight areas. Room Taxes go toward supporting county and state costs. Other expenses that are covered by fees include, maintenance, cleaning, garbage pickup, septic pumping, insurance, payroll, property tax, and administrative costs. In many previous years, overall the expenses per campground exceeded the fee charged. Asset improvement is sometimes paid through federal taxes and allocations to the USFS. However, all operating costs are paid by your fees or contributions by Hoodoo.. Your income taxes DO NOT pay for campground upkeep.

For most of the campgrounds that open in June, the opening dates are really a guess. We try to open all campgrounds with the exception of Monty (eagle nest problem in May) and the west Cultus area (bad mosquitoes early) by Memorial Weekend. After that the opening date is when the snow melts enough for us to get in and open the camping sites. This is also true of a few high altitude campgrounds that have opening dates by Memorial Weekend. It is possible that some of them will not be open if we have deep winter snow or late spring snow. However, if the snow is not too deep for camping we will plow into some of these campgrounds in order to open on time. We will try to keep the opening dates updated. To a lesser extent this is also true in the fall. Occasionally, some of the higher altitude campgrounds have to be closed a week or so early due to early snow. We have attempted to make it so that you can't make reservations at a campground that might be closed due to snow.
