Steens Mountain Wilderness Resort — Reviews

Hidden gem

Clean bathroom shower, Clean camp sites , Black and grey water drains are uphill from camp. Difficult to drain.

The resort was quiet and pleasant the road to the resort needs a little help

We had a great time

Cabin 8 is such a great place and fits our needs perfectly for what we come to the Steens for. It is always very clean on our arrival and we love that there is a full kitchen!

Our spot was quiet, private enough, and easy to park our RV. There are great walking paths to explore the wildlife refuge. The staff were welcoming and helpful.

Clean, friendly, quiet, pretty, and away from the highway. Great access to birding--near the south end of the gravel road that goes through the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. We were there in early April, and it snowed a bit.

My husband and I noticed the hair had been cleaned out of the shower drains.

Stayed in one of the cabins, which is basically a small single wide mobile home. It had a queen size bed, bathroom w/shower, kitchen, and dining room area. If you want linen for the bed or a set of towels there is an additional charge.

Despite dusty, hot conditions we had a very nice stay. You need to be prepared for a rough road into the campground. We have a sturdy truck but had to air down the tires to deal with the washboard road conditions for the 3 mile drive off the main road. The sites are nice, though the utilities are up near the far end so bring the hose and electric cord extension. It is remote and quiet and the sky is beautifully dark. Access to the Wilderness loop is easy and making that trip is a must. The hosts are helpful and accommodating and knowledgeable about the area.

Perfect weather with no forest fire smoke!!!

Great camp site, very quiet. Bathrooms and showers were very clean!! This was our second trip here. We loved both visits to Steens, and we will be back again!! Thank you!!

very well maintained cabins, really clean, too. A couple important items were missing from kitchen - salt/pepper and paper towels. If not supplied, should be in notes for reservation to make sure to bring. Also, would be nice to have reminder that this area has a lot of mosquitos. Living in southwestern Oregon, we don't think of mosquitos since we have hardly any!!

The sites were odd in that our picnic table was situated downhill at the edge of the gravel drive of the adjacent site. The staff was not welcoming or helpful when asked to move our friend so she could occupy an adjacent site although both sites adjacent to ours remained unoccupied during our stay. The bathrooms were very clean and had plenty of hot water. The hookups were fine and all the sites were pull thrus which made parking our trailer easy. Unfortunately, it was very buggy so I recommend you take Deet mosquito repellant. The location at the edge of Malheur Wildlife Refuge is great for birdwatching!

Our cabin was adequate for the 2 nights that we stayed. The Wilderness Resort is primarily set up for RVs and trailers. The kitchenette was small, but there was a BBQ outside. It was very quiet!

We had a great time . Camp site was very clean and the area was just beautiful.

Friendly Staff. Clean Facility
