Campsite fees go up, other limits imposed in state forests Recent rule changes ad- opted by the Oregon Board of Forestry adjust camping fees in state forests, provide additional benefits to qual- ifying military veterans and active-duty service members, revise overnight stay limits on state forests, and initiate a pilot campsite reservation program at Northrup Creek Horse Camp. Drive-in campsites are now $20 per night for up to two vehicles, and walk-in tent sites are $15 per night. Fees for group campsites and extra vehicle fees remain the same, as do fees for desig- nated camping areas. Late last month, Oregon Department of Forestry be- gan charging camping fees at sites previously free sites in the Tillamook State For- est: Morrison Eddy ($15 per night) along with Cedar Creek and North Fork Wilson Designated Campsites ($5 per vehicle per night). Military veterans with a service-connected disability who hold the Veteran’s Spe- cial Access Pass still can stay in ODF campgrounds for free. Additionally, the agency will waive fees for active-duty service members on Memo- rial Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day. The rule changes also ad- dress how long campers may stay. Stays on state forestland may be no longer than 14 consecutive days, nor more than 42 days over a 12-month period. The change is due to the increasing trend of people who stay for long periods of time and use state forests as their primary residence. Long-term camping re- stricts availability of camping sites for recreational uses, and creates safety and sani- tation challenges, the agency said.
