The D66 50L Campsite is a primitive, non-reservable, and no-fee area located in the Lower Deschutes watershed of Oregon. The campground is situated in a beautiful natural setting, surrounded by a stunning view of the Deschutes River and the surrounding hills.
The area is full of outdoor activities for visitors to enjoy, including fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing. The nearby town of Madras offers additional attractions such as museums, breweries, and restaurants.
The campground amenities include picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets. Visitors should come prepared with their own water and food supplies, as the site does not have potable water or garbage service.
One interesting fact about the area is that it is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including bald eagles, ospreys, and river otters.
The best time of year to visit the D66 50L Campsite is during the summer months, from June to September, when temperatures range from the mid-70s to the mid-80s Fahrenheit. Visitors should be aware of potential wildfires in the area during the summer and fall and follow all fire restrictions.
