About this place

This campground offers excellent scenery. Although Steamboat Creek is closed to all fishing, summer visitors often see large steelhead trout attempting to jump the falls during their spawning runs. The campground is on the other side of Steamboat Creek from Steamboat Road. Towering fir trees shade the seven campsites, making it feel as if you are further away from the North Umpqua Highway. The trailhead for the 5.5-mile Mott segment of the North Umpqua Trail is about 6 miles southwest of the campground. From Roseburg, OR take OR-138 E/NE Diamond Lake Blvd. Continue on 138 until you reach Forest Service (FS) Road #38, Steamboat Creek Road. Continue on FS Road 38 to FS Road 3810 and turn right. Cross the bridge, stay to the left, and continue on FS Road 3810 for 1 mile to Steamboat Falls Campground.
