Overview
Eagleview Group Campground is situated between the Pacific Coast and the city of Roseburg, Oregon. Its location on the Umpqua River caters to avid anglers and water sport enthusiasts while the grassy field and horseshoe pits offered onsite, provide more casual recreation options closer to the campground.
Recreation
Fishing enthusiasts will enjoy the chance to catch chinook salmon, coho, steelhead or smallmouth bass depending on the season. Float the river on a kayak or canoe or just swim in the cool Umpqua waters on a hot summer’s day. These are just a few of the many things to do at Eagleview.
Facilities
The campground has 10 campsites that will accommodate up to 100 campers. There is also a group picnic area, covered pavilion and a large fire pit for group gatherings. The grassy field is ideal for bocce ball, croquet or throwing around a Frisbee and a small frisbee golf course. Horseshoe pits are also on-site.
Natural Features
Eagleview is situated along the Umpqua River in southwestern Oregon. It is only one of two rivers in Oregon with headwaters that begin high up in the Cascade Mountains and meander on down to the Pacific Ocean. The campground lies in a broad river canyon surrounded by deeply forested mountainsides.
The name, Umpqua, is a surviving term of the Native American Umpqua language, and translates to “thundering waters,” “satisfied,” or “across the waters.”
