Camping at Slide Creek near Blue River

Public campground · Blue River · 15 campsites

A forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

The reservoir is the hub for much of the campground's recreation: water skiing, swimming, canoeing and fishing are all commonly enjoyed here, and anglers often target rainbow trout on the roughly 1,280-acre Cougar Reservoir. The campground also provides convenient access to the Olallie Trail Area, a large network of trails for hiking where about half the routes are open to mountain biking.

“Our camp host, Connie, was the best we’ve had in 5 yrs. She kept the sites clean, the toilet was the cleanest it’s been, and she was so friendly and accommodating. ”

How far ahead to book Slide Creek

For July weekends, book about 157 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 71 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (1,914 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
