Managed by the Bureau of Land Management's Medford Ashland Field Office, this free dispersed area sits directly alongside a lake on Buck Divide Rd, an unpaved road that stays low-traffic but runs close to some camping spots. No marked sites exist. The road surface is dirt, can get muddy, and runs bumpy in sections, though one camper navigated it with a 20-foot trailer behind a van. Cell service is listed as available. Wildcat Campground is roughly a mile south for campers who want a more developed setup, and campgrounds near Ashland cover a wider range of options across the region.
