Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

From rocky coastlines to sagebrush deserts, camping in Oregon has never been better. The Best in Tent Camping: Oregon is a guidebook for tent campers who like quiet, scenic, and serene campsites. It's the perfect resource if you blanch at the thought of pitching a tent on a concrete slab, trying to sleep through the blare of another camper's boom box, or waking up to find your tent surrounded by a convoy of RVs.

Inside you will find:

Detailed campground locator and layout maps

Key information such as fees, restrictions, and dates of operation

Ratings for beauty, privacy, quiet, security, spaciousness, and cleanliness.

If you subscribe to the opinion that televisions, Japanese lanterns, and electric guitars are not essential camping equipment, The Best in Tent Camping: Oregon should be your constant companion.
