Trash collection, campfire circles and picnic tables are provided. Additionally, firewood is sold on-site. The capacity for the group site is 45 guests. The Breitenbush River is a popular spot for wading, swimming and rainbow trout fishing. The [South Breitenbush Gorge Trail](http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/willamette/recreation/recarea/?recid=4268) is three miles from the campground. Here, hikers can view the river passing through basalt narrows. During the hike, look for a log footbridge that crosses Roaring Creek's cascading waters.
