Cover Campground

Near the Upper South Umpqua, Camp Comfort is perfect for camping, swimming, picnicking, and hiking. Large old-growth cedar and fir trees provide shade to campers, while rhododendron are a burst of color in the spring.Camp Comfort serves as the trailhead for Camp Comfort Trail #1586, a short but rewarding trail that leads to a rocky outcrop overlooking the beginning of the South Umpqua River. Deer Lick Falls Trail #1568, another short trail that leads to a popular swimming hole in the spring and summer, is a quick two-miles up Road 28.

 

Current Conditions
Cover Campground will be closed for the 2025 season to assess, identify, and treat danger trees that are a safety risk. There is no potable water at Cover Campground.
