Directions: From Interstate 5 south of Eugene, take exit 188 and turn east on Highway 58. Drive about 15 miles to Lowell, then drive two miles north on County Road 6245 (Winberry Road) and drive six miles southeast, then continue 3.5 miles on Forest Service Road 1802 to the campground.

Trip Notes: This campground is located on Winberry Creek. A little inside knowledge: On the map, Lookout Point Reservoir appears to be about three miles away, but to get there, you have to drive nine miles to Lowell, at the north end of the reservoir. The closest hiking option is just downstream from the campground on Forest Service Road 1802-150. Be cautious - there is poison oak at the top of the ridge.
