- A little about Mckee Bridge Day Use Area
The day use area provides access to the Applegate River, where people enjoy fishing, wading, and swimming. Much of the day-use area is flat and easily accessed, except for the steps down to the river.
Situated along the rocky banks of the Applegate River, the McKee Bridge Community Kitchen is a fantastic day-use picnic shelter and registered National Historic Site. The shelter is constructed with large pine timber and features Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) masonry, including a beautiful stone fireplace. Groups often reserve McKee Community Kitchen when holding a wedding ceremony on the neighboring historic covered bridge. Located in southwest Oregon in the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest at an elevation of 1,600 feet, nearby attractions include volcanic peaks, scenic rivers, wilderness areas, and fantastic old-growth forests.
