General Info about the Venue, Cottonwood Canyon State Park

• Potable water, hot showers, and flushable restrooms are available.

• This is a remote state park, and you will not have cell phone reception. There is a tiny Wi-Fi spot near the check-in station for emergencies.

• Several solar-powered charging stations for phones are available throughout the site.

• The campsites are very spacious, and RVs will fit easily. Unfortunately, this state park does not have RV hookups.

• This is a high desert environment! Be aware of drinking enough water throughout the day and limiting sun exposure.

• Rattlesnakes, cougars, and ticks live here - be careful!

• The John Day River will likely be raging this time of year, which is great for tipping your toes in but is absolutely not recommended for swimming.

• Since this is a State Park, we must follow some rules, including 10 pm Quiet Time. We are also not allowed to have amplified music, so bring on those guitars and campfire vibes 🔥

• Speaking of fires, we don’t know yet if there will be a burn ban during the event. Depending on the conditions this spring, there is a good chance that the ban will start in June, but we might get lucky. We’ll keep you all posted — Fingers crossed!

• There is a giant parking lot with plenty of space for cars. If you want to keep your car by your campsite, you can, but note that the camping fees we paid only cover one car per site. If you have more than one car at your campsite, you must pay $8/night, which you can easily decide and do onsite (cash or card).
