Pretty mountain!

Willow Lake is a secluded and pretty quiet spot. Day use can be busy in peak season, and you’ll want to have reservations for most of that time.

Beautiful lake with a view!

Willow lake is a nice lake for a good summertime day in Oregon! It’s not too far away from Medford… we’ll, about an hour. A good boating, kayaking, paddle boarding lake that’s family friendly. Good fishing as well. The lake gets pretty busy in the summer months, so get there early. The campground is pretty populated and almost always full. The bathrooms are clean and there’s always staff around to help.

Wilderness Camping with the basics - A hidden Gem

What a fantastic lake! Secluded in the mountain back country of the Southern Oregon area - not far from Medford / Grants Pass / Siskiyou National Forest / Crater Lake

Great boating lake for water sports, good fishing, excellent hiking and great campsites and in nearby campgrounds not listed on The Dyrt yet, you can get some really secluded sites that are just beautiful... but do not expect more than an outhouse and a spigot, a picnic table (maybe a bear box?) and fire-ring- which to me is PHENOMENAL camping. Fresh water, a bathroom and nature. Works!

The Willow Lake County Park offers more amenities though and great wilderness. Its a beautiful little gem and gets amazing weather- from warm and sunny to random rainy thunderstorms that do not last long. Truly God-sent sunsets and sunrises.

Great place to make some wonderful memories with streams, creeks, the lake, the forested areas, trails, canyons, fishing, hiking, canoeing and more.
