About Devil's Flat Campground
Overview
Enjoy a beautiful drive through the picturesque Cow Creek drainage on your way to one of the most interesting campgrounds in the Umpqua.
Located under a bluff and surrounded by a forest of cedar, pine, and madrone, Devil’s Flat is a small campground with three campsites, a bevy of hiking opportunities, and a handful of historic landmarks.
On the north side of the campground, you can see the stone ruins of an old water fixture built by the Civilian Conservation Corps “Fire-Eaters” in the 1930s. On the south side is the old Devil's Flat Guard Station, where you’ll find a Ranger Cabin built in 1915 and a 1920s-era horse barn. Near the ranger cabin, in a fir tree, you can also see the tiki carving that gave Devil’s Flat its name.

Natural Features
Visitors to the Umpqua National Forest are often taken aback by the unique landscapes of southwestern Oregon. High Cascades glaciation, whitewater rapids, and explosive geologic events have shaped the distinctive landscape on the 983,239 acres of forest that provides spectacular scenery as well as an abundance of natural and cultural resources.
Verdant stands of hemlock, fir and cedar transition to forests of mixed conifers and hardwoods at lower elevations, while alpine ecosystems dominate high peaks.
The translation of the word "Umpqua," meaning "thundering waters," defines the area. The Forest's waterways and diversity create desirable habitat for many species of fish and wildlife, in addition to providing outstanding recreational opportunities to our local communities and visitors.
Getting there
From Azalea, OR, travel east on County Road 36 for about 17 miles to Devil’s Flat Campground, located on the left side of the road.
