The campground is located at exit 234 from either direction on IH 84 near Meacham, Oregon.

The state park is located in an old growth forest near the summit of Blue Mountain.

In 1812, trappers and traders of the Astor overland expedition crossed the Blue Mountains and established a route for the upcoming Oregon Trail emigrants.

This state park is now known as a State Heritage Area because it has long served as a popular stop for pioneer travelers on the Oregon Trail as far back as the mid 1800′s. There is an Oregon Trail display in the park.
