First established in 1881 as a stagecoach stop between Winnemucca, NV and Burns, OR, The Fields Station has become world famous for hamburgers, milk shakes, lodging and friendly service for 21st Century travelers. Originally a two-story stone building, The Station lost its upper level due to fire, circa 1955. The lower level was subsequently remodeled into a store, fueling station and café.
Still in operation today, The Fields Station is proudly owned by Jacob and Jaide Downs. People from all over make Fields a destination for world class hunting, bird watching, camping, hot springs, land sailing, hiking, cycling and solitude in the shadow of the picturesque Steens and Pueblo Mountain ranges. Services have expanded over the years as The Fields Station now proudly offers gas, diesel, premium fuel, propane, a café, groceries, tap beer, liquors, motel rooms and RV hook ups.

$10 per person - shower, laundry, water, Wi-Fi and trash included. Nice people. Stay behind the laundry building for more privacy. We looked at the Virgin Valley campsite on the way and it was full of weekend partiers, happy we moved on, I’d stay here again. Long dirt road to get out there but it was smooth.

The camp ground was great. It has the basic needs for most camper trailers. There are a few sites there with shore power but I didn’t see any water hook ups. There is water there if you need to fill up jugs, tanks or water bottles. There is a single flushing toilet that is available for overnighters as well as small store with food and drinks for sale. The staff was very nice and helpful. Be aware of the wind! Our first night in our teardrop was pretty rocky. Almost lost our awning because the gusts were at or above 60mph. We talked to the staff and they said to orient the trailer front towards the mountains. It seriously helped a lot. If you tent camp, I would recommend some sort of windscreen or just use your vehicle to block it somehow. Overall the scenery is majestic and is worth the drive out there. 10/10
TravelerThis camp ground and hot springs is the perfect entrance to the Alvord desert. There are sites with and without electricity as well as bunkers if you don't want to camp. We were in a van and opted for a site with electricity. The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Even if you don't stay here I would recommend using this paid entrance to the Alvord desert. They also have a small shop with food and camping supplies if needed. There is a rustic hot springs spot, which is very lovely. We used it twice during our one night stay. The second night we camped on the playa. I would highly recommend visiting the Alvord desert and at least stopping by this spot if you want to enter the playa.
ScoutBeautiful view of Playa!
LegendAs I saw mentioned earlier, this is not for everyone. The journey to get to Alvord was long. We traveled Hwy 20 from Bend to Burns, 205 to Fields, Fields-Denio Rd to Alvord. It was a long, very remote drive. The road from Fields is gravel, so be aware. Alvord is right off the playa. You do get an access code with your stay to be able to drive out there. We were warned to stay away if it rains. It turns to mud quickly and you will get stuck. The hotspring is pumped direct from the source. It's murky, unfiltered, unregulated bliss. There are two pools, so you have to get cozy with all the other soakers. The wind was cold and fierce when we stayed. I thought the trailer was going to tip over during the night. We met a many nice people and had fun conversations. Expensive for what it is, but certainly a memorable experience.
ScoutI didn’t camp at the hot springs this time around, but last June (?) I did come and I enjoyed my visit. I wanted to come back to see this area again, and although I didn’t stay at the hot springs, I did stop at the front office to ask a few questions. The lady who was working was very pleasant-she was so accommodating (and also very gorgeous)! I’m definitely looking forward to coming back a third time, when I have a little more time on my hands to take a dip in the hot springs again
LegendWe made the mistake of choosing the Alvord Hot Springs resort for camping by the Alvord Desert. The place is basically a giant gravel parking lot with a few picnic benches and fire pits strewn on the sides. There is a single very dirty bathroom right next to the general store and no other services at all. The people at the store were friendly (but no one was wearing masks in COVID time). But the real issue is that the prices they charge are truly ridiculous for what is offered. The whole place revolves around the hot springs which are nice and have very hot natural spring water collected into two cement pools. It was very crowded and we had to go back to find a time there was less busy. With camping fee $40 for two adults and 30 for any additional adult, campers have unlimited access to the hot springs (which is $20 per soak if you are not camping there). They also charge $10 to give you access to the Alvord Desert floor. But there is few access road just a few miles south of the resort. Marginal cell phone reception on AT&T. Full menu of charges in the photo attached. Unless you are really into the hot springs, do yourself a favor and save yourself some cash and find unlimited dispersed camping just a couple of miles south of the resort.
GuideNot everyone may feel like I do, but I loved it. The hot springs are not fancy by any means, but 3 hours from the nearest from town (of 1500 people) fancy is not what one should expect. The pools are simple concrete with a ramshackle tin structure blocking the wind, and the cabins, if you rent one, look like the soviet army built them. I camped. It was cold, but the access to the spring, speeding at 120+ mph on the desert playa, and the majestic Steens Mountain peak towering above you, makes for an unforgettable desert experience.
ScoutThe gal running the place was a gem! Couple friendly kitties and a pooch run around to greet you. Hot springs are nice and hot. Beautiful place. Late check-ins are cool and the are on an honor system.
GuideYou are in the dessert so don’t expect much. If you are camping here it’s because you plan to mine for opals. The bathrooms are good. Showers are nice and high psi! They have ice, ice cream and sodas for purchase as well as a small gift shop. The 30 amp pull through sites are really close the back-Ins are a bit more spread out. I can imagine this place is pretty tight if all sites are filled during their busy season but mid September it was comfortable. For RV drivers or trailer pullers beware the road is basically a washboard for the entire drive (appx 10 mi) so go slow. Gets windy in the eve as typical for high desert. Nearest gas and groceries is Denio Lakeview is about 100 mi away. Great owner and super friendly staff help at the mine. Super kid friendly my daughter and I had a blast.
RangerWhen I lived in Portland, I went to the Alvord desert three times... it is a 7 hour drove, but I wanted to see it in different seasons. Each time did not disappoint.
I stayed here twice of the three times because I was with a group and the $50 bunker was not bad split up. And this got us access to the hot springs... no brained.
It was also super nice to have a heater.. while this is a dessert, the winters are so cold.
The Steens range was just dusted with snow, so we were very lucky. It was presidents weekend for reference.
Bathrooms, but not showers.
The bunkers are old military converted into a living space. Small, but really fun to stay in.
Road is easy to get to. Dirt for a few miles off the highway, but super stunning.
Worth the long haul. Every time.
RangerThis is a fantastic stop whether you camp there or stay in the bunkhouses they have. There are 11 camp spots on both sides of the road. We were there in Apr. Tom the owner was manning the general store when we stopped in. He was great. He is very knowledgeable on the local area and his advice was welcome and spot on. He was very accommodating. He gave us some info on the nearby Pikes Creek trail and we were off. We came back after a 6 mile hike and soaked in the springs. The area is kept clean and the views of the Alvord have to be seen in person. It is a short walk from the camping area to the springs. There are two soaking pools at the springs. One is enclosed the other is open. The camping area near the store is basically a parking lot and there is one flush toilet for everyone. The store has all the basics you might need including ice. If you need more the Fields store is about 20 minutes away.
