Lazy Bend Campground sits along the Wild and Scenic Clackamas River about 10 miles east of Estacada on Highway 224, at roughly 800 feet elevation where the highway runs close to the water through a dense stand of trees and huckleberry patches. The site is currently closed following the 2020 Riverside Wildfire; visitors should contact the Mt.






Length limits vary by campsite.
