| Description |
Directional sign to Edson Creek Recreation Site on Sixes River Road, with Edson Creek in the background, March 14, 2017, by Greg Shine, BLM. Located at the junction of Edson Creek and Sixes River, Edson Creek Recreation Site provides 27 campsites and four reservable group sites in an open meadow setting. The group site provides a picnic and camp area for groups of 25 to 200 people. A boat launch is located across the road from Edson Creek Recreation Site. The rivers, streams, and forests that surround Edson Creek Recreation Site are home to many different fish and wildlife. Bear, cougar, and bobcats are sometimes seen crossing the road in the early morning and late evening. River otters live along the riverbank and hunt for fish and crayfish. Bald eagles can be seen waiting in the trees hoping to feast on salmon. Tall alder trees mixed with myrtle, big-leaf maple, and Oregon ash flank the open meadows at Edson Creek. In the spring, look for fawn lilies with their superb colors. While the plants are beautiful ― watch out! Poison oak is common at these sites. Look for its distinctive, often glossy leaves with three leaflets. In the fall it is easy to avoid since the poison oak leaves turn a brilliant red. Directions To reach the site, travel five miles north Port Orford, Oregon, on US Hwy 101, turn right (east) onto Sixes River Road, travel approximately 4 miles, and turn left before you cross the Edson Creek Bridge.
