Justesen Ranches - Lower Twin Lakes sits beside a private spring-fed lake in Oregon's high desert, roughly 15 miles southwest of Maupin. This drive-in campground operates on open terrain with lake access, though fishing requires separate arrangements and additional fees beyond the nightly rate. The property follows leave-no-trace principles, requiring campers to pack out all waste.
Rates run $90-$180 per night with reservations available. Pets are permitted on-site. The lake setting provides water access in an otherwise arid landscape. Campers looking for additional options can explore places to camp near Maupin or check out Justesen Ranches - Upper Twin Lakes, located about half a mile north.
