    Moderately easy 7+ mile loop. Got there just before 8am and there were 8 cars in the lot. 3 hours…read morelater there was no parking. Early! Always get there early! The river crossing is a real thing, but I saw all levels of age/fitness/size/canine/hooman making it, so you can too! Today there was one log. Not a selection of logs, just one. And it was alone, there was no log acting as a railing. You're in the air, friends. Or in the river, but at least it's only 1 mile back to your car in icy clothing if you tumble in. I slid across on my ass, shameless! On the way back I slowly balanced my way across. Made it. So can you! You will be rewarded. The falls are in my Oregon top 5, and I've been to Silver Falls so now you know. The walk is through old growth, lots of storm down trees but they've all been cut so they aren't blocking the trail. It was cold today, in the 40s, so the usual advice about layering holds. Even on a nice day you'll be in shade a lot of the way. Boots if you have 'em. Oh and hey! Today the parking lot trashcan was full and overflowing. If I had remembered to bring a big trash bag, which I often do, I would have picked it up. If you're feeling love for the outdoors, will you consider bringing a big gladd trashbag just in case? Mother earth thanks you.

    Stunning second half. Did the loop and was very happy we didn't double back. The falls are…read moregorgeous, the river crossing was pretty easy this time of year. I found it a pleasant hike, we clocked 7.5 miles. Plenty of parking.

    If you're gonna do the Trail of 10 Falls (or 8 as it was recently due to northside trail closure),…read moreI recommend a counter-clockwise route starting at South Falls to avoid crowds and work your way up the magnificence scale. Also helps to get there early as you can. Trails were wet from recent showers but well-maintained and not slick. If it's really been raining and the falls are pumping, be prepared for standing water behind a couple of the falls. (Luckily someone had put out small stones to balance on, but from the looks of their wet shoes many people were unlucky in their attempts to cross.) Walking sticks can be helpful in the steeper grades. It now costs $10 to park unless you've got an annual pass

    Daily parking permits are $10 per day, per vehicle for Oregon residents, and $12 per day otherwise…read more There are machines that sell the permits at the parking lots, so it's a pretty straightforward process. I went when there was a lot of rainfall, and so there was actually an emergency trail closure that spanned the majority of the park. Fortunately, the Canyon trail between the South Falls and the Lower South Falls was still open, and so I hiked that trail. It was absolutely amazing!! The falls were roaring and the creek was almost overflowing. The hike began with dark clouds and rain. As the trail led down and behind South Falls, the spray from the falls was heavier than the rain, soaking you from head to toe. The path then hugs the creek, which threatened to take over the trail at some points. There's a flight of stairs right before the Lower Falls, and at this point you can hear the thundering crash of the falls. As you go behind the falls, a shroud of darkness envelops you and you realize that suddenly you're fording through ankle deep water. With the loss of sight comes with the deafening noise of the tumbling water, and the spray attacks you every which way. Stumbling through, you emerge and find that the rain has stopped. As you crest up the path, the sun breaks, filtering through the trees with only the silence of the forest, punctuated with the occasional plop-plops of the trees shedding the water drops of the earlier rain. The silence is almost deafening. Good thing that the trail takes you right to the Lodge, which has a roaring fire inside to dry yourself with! There are also cool nature exhibits inside, as well as a small cafe to get drinks to warm yourself from the inside too. I would come here again, rain or shine!

    Holy amazing weekend!! We love love love camping, and finding new places with adventures is kind of…read moreour thing. Camp Dakota did NOT disappoint!! 1. The sites: of you want to be close in to the action, the sites are close together like your typical state park. If you want some privacy, you camp up the hill where the spaces are a little more private. We stayed in a 10 Person yurt with 10 people and had room to spare. The yurt and site were clean and well maintained. Oh, and there's a little shed with wood if you didn't bring your own, so it doesn't have to be carted up the hill, you just pay for what you use. 2. The facilities: I was not looking forward to port-a-potty camping. I was pleasantly surprised to find the facilities in clean condition. Clearly they are cleaned frequently, and always stocked with TP. 3. The Adventures: there's a potential for dropping a lot of money on all the extras. But the activities we were able to do with the $20 wrist bands kept us easily busy all weekend. We went back to the rock wall and archery range several times. We also did a zip line tour (my first. I was terrified), and it was a blast and totally worth the money. And the guides were amazing, which brings me to my last point.... 4. THE PEOPLE!!! In my experience, places like this have people working for them who are obviously sick of all the kids and forcing a smile to keep their jobs. Not at Camp Dakota. From the moment we got there, we were welcomed, joked with, and I felt that the family friendly atmosphere was genuine. They all made an attempt to learn our names and ask if we were having fun. They are also clearly trained in safety for all the adventures they run. They really made this trip for us. Special shout out to Juggernaut, Bumblebee, Tumbleweed, Rerun, Care Bear, and most especially PEACOCK!! Y'all are amaze balls. Oh and ps. You can have pizza delivered to your camp site. If that doesn't sell ya, well we just can't be friends.

    Fantastic all around with staff and their knowledge, super clean yurt with a wood stove and bbq…read morewith propane already there, zip line, ropes course, archery, tomahawk throwing, rock wall, gold panning and more! Great spring break getaway. Office has great coffee/espresso and treats and supplies. They can even deliver a hot baked pizza to your campsite!! Will definitely be back!!
