Camping at Indian Ford Campground near Sisters

Public campground · Sisters · 13 campsites

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

About this campground

For activity options, Indian Ford is more of a trailhead neighborhood than a lakeside resort. Short hikes and singletrack for mountain biking are within a short walk or drive, and the nearby Sisters Wilderness Trails expand into longer day-trip routes.

How far ahead to book Indian Ford Campground

For May weekends, book about 115 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 79 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 (1,625 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.
