Starting on August 10th, 2020 there will be increased fees for non-Oregon residents to camp at an Oregon State Park. The fee is temporary and is supposed to help recuperate lost funding from park closures earlier in the year due to Covid-19, and lost lottery funding.

The average cost for a tent site at an Oregon State Park is currently $19 per night, and will go up to $23 per night for non-Oregon residents.
