    I recently stayed one night at Alpine Campground on my way back from California…read more Alpine Campground is a Forest Service Campground, which means that the rules are pretty lax as compared to a state park or national park. There is a camp host, but they were away on vacation while I was there. This campground has 16 sites, which are currently all first come first serve. The way this typically works is that you occupy an open site that hasn't been reserved by anyone else, and then fill out the self registration envelope by the sign board within 30 minutes. When I arrived on Sunday evening, I noticed that most of the sites had tags on the sign posts, and other people who were looking for sites were passing them up. But I also noticed that the camp host was off duty, and upon inspecting the tags closer, I found that most of them had expired. So, I was easily able to snag my first choice site, which I think was site 15. It was close to the camp host site, and plenty big enough to set up my tent far away from the campfire ring. There is a vault toilet in the campground, but I didn't use it, because Timberline Lodge is literally within walking distance of the campground. So, I just brushed my teeth and used the restroom over there before bed and before leaving the next morning. The fee was $25/night, which you can get half off with a qualifying pass. This fee only includes one vehicle, because the campsites aren't really even big enough for two. Extra vehicles are $10, and that fee does not qualify for a discount. My campsite was really pretty. There were all kinds of flowers in bloom around the campground, in mid-August. Driving to and from the campground, I saw several random waterfalls cascading down the sides of the highway. There are so many opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and mountaineering in this area. The Zig Zag Ranger district website has a list of all of the trails and recreation areas managed by them, along with fees and season dates. Since I came on a Monday night, it was pretty peaceful. As far as I could tell, only one or two other campsites were occupied on my side of the campground. I was close enough to the road to hear some cars coming and going throughout the night, but it wasn't too bad. Not anywhere near as bad as Camp 4 Yosemite, for example. Overall this campground was pretty and peaceful, and I would definitely camp here again.

    This was a decent camping place. There is potable water near the bathrooms. I believe there are two…read morebathrooms for the campground and they are pit toilets, so no flushing water and no sinks. They do have hand sanitizer. It was pretty dark and hard to see anything in the bathrooms even in daylight hours, but maybe that is preferred for this style of bathroom. Seems like they clean the bathrooms pretty often, as it didn't smell at all. We stayed on the side away from the lake but it's less than five minutes to walk to the lake and a nice view of mount hood. Lots of trees, so lots of shade. Bring mosquito repellent because this place has lots of bugs

    The best views of Mt. Hood at Timothy Lake are from Hoodview Campgrounds Boat Launch. Bar none…read more My Family camps here every year. Its getting harder and harder to get a weekend reservation but I think they are putting in more Campgrounds. I know they are in the process of upgrading all the current campsites. I was told that would take place.... years ago, but they're actually doing it now. Timothy Lake is a very popular lake. The water is clean and clear. The fishing is good, depending on where the fish are that day. Even if you get skunked, it's still good to just sit and look at God's creation. So peaceful and beautiful. I catch crayfish when we go. My Wife and I are the only ones who eat them and that's fine with us. We scarf em down. Butter everywhere. Can't wait for next year. I have a new bait option I want to use. The Camp Hosts are always nice. I think they remember our little Smoo Bear and us from previous campouts. The grounds are always clean. There are also PGE Employees patrolling the grounds but also Clackamas County Sheriff's regularly roll through. So trouble gets rooted out. I've never had a problem. On occasion, people get loud. And the Hosts take care of it. I've seen people try and sneak in in the middle of the night and get busted. I always thought that was dumb to even try. You have to drive by the Host Site just to get in. Dumb. You cant bring your own wood! If your caught. They'll make you throw it all out or leave. They sell bundles of wood for $6.00. I figure you'll need $18.00 of wood a day. More if your planning on cooking over a wood fire. Most site's allow up to 6 tents per site. You can have 1 Vehicle per site, any other Vehicle's will be $6.00 a day per Vehicle. They get you from both sides. It seems a bit spendy but after weeks of work. Your sitting next to the fire. Beer in hand, laughing with family. You realize how happy you are to be camping and you thank God for your life. My Sister is our Reservation Queen. She's already planning on being ready to reserve our next trip when that date arrives. God Bless you Red. I am ready to put in vacation days. Cant wait for our next campout.

    I was a camp counselor at Mt. Hood Kiwanis Camp for three summers while in high school and between…read morehigh school and college more years ago than I care to admit, and it remains one of the most profound influences on my life of all. I haven't been back or visited camp for years, but the memories are still vivid. We did all sorts of activities with our campers with varying disabilities, even taking trips up to Timberline Lodge, and of course did all the crafts, archery, swimming, and other traditional things that any child participates in at camp. My campers taught me a lot more than I probably ever taught them, and we had a great time doing it, with lots of laughter. I remember many of them very fondly. At the time I was a counselor, the camp had a trout pond stocked by the forest service, and I became a crack fish cleaner and packer. I also learned what must have been dozens of campfire songs, and somehow have remembered many of those to this day. I'm thrilled to see Kiwanis Camp still surviving and thriving. My best wishes to them as they continue forward with a wonderful tradition of service and fun.
