Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Chiloquin, OR

This is a large, sprawling, very peaceful and green Jackson County campground with several loops. 

Loop D is no hookups (though each site has a non-threaded water spigot). Each site also has a grill, a picnic table, and a firepit. It’s so quiet and empty and peaceful during the week, and then practically fills up on the weekends. ATT had good service but the Verizon phone was roaming/ extended network. Still usable but slow and could not use the hotspot. 

This campground has one of our favorite dog parks. It’s nicely mowed, thick grass, beautiful surroundings, and huge. You can also rent a boat or kayak and spend the day on the lake- so fun! 

Sites without hookups are $28, and electric/water sites are $33. There is a dump station at the entrance, free for use by campers only.

This large campground is off highway 62 at Lost Creek Lake. There are water and electric hook ups and non hook up sites available.

$25/dry 

$30/water and electric

 We stayed here twice, once in a non-hookup site and we used a hook up site during a heatwave so we could have a/c. Nicely paved loops and sites with mix of sun and shade and grass and dirt. There is also paved trails for hiking and biking all over the area. From the campground the access to the lake is small trek on one of the paved trails which was a nice bike ride. Near the day use is also a store and deli and signs for various water craft rentals. The camp sites all have water (even in dry camping area though spigots were not threaded), picnic tables, BBQs and fire pits. There are amazing free hot showers and bathrooms in each of the loops. Rangers make frequent rounds. It can be quite crowded here on weekends and though sites aren’t very private they are spaced a decent amount.  

There is a trash compactor near the RV dump. No recycling other than a "Kids Can" program which I believe only accepts aluminum cans?  There was no sign to let you know.

You can either make a reservation in advance or show up and see if there are any free sites for the night.

There were also multiple playgrounds and a large gorgeous dog park. We would stay here again. Good ATT service, TMobile had bars but service was inconsistent and Verizon had 3-4 bars of LTE roaming.

I mean I guess if you are the power boating type this is your jam too, lots of people in the lake and marina - I found the lake to be dirty (but felt good as it was 106 degrees that day) and the swimming area just a tiny span of gravelly rocks and mud. 🤷🏼‍♀️ The campground itself is pretty poorly run, nobody checked me in or made sure I had a hang tag and had paid (I did not, so I could have been anybody, I didn’t preregister my vehicle) every staff member had a sour look on their face, did not seem to be enjoying the job and not one of them was wearing a mask. The bathrooms were disgusting, I’ve had cleaner experiences at dispersed campsites, a toilet was plugged literally the entire time I was there (3nights) and waste was filled to the brim. The lawn sprinklers were going all night and one kept hitting my tent and startling me. I would not stay here again. Pluses : for families, I bet this is a fun place. Huge dog park area, badminton set, playground. Sites are huge, people had half a dozen tents in one site. Nice shady spots easily found. (I was in D) showers go forever without having to push a button and have great pressure. And....the miles of biking and hiking trails are great! I walked halfway around the lake and it really was so beautiful and peaceful. Not a great home base for a solo wilderness adventure, but again, families with powerboats seemed to be having a good time.

We loved this spot! We were in Space 2. Right next to the river . No one blocking our view. Very hot. No shade. However,we were right near the bridge to dog island. Once cross the bridge our lab could get off the leash and lose his mind jumping in and out of the river. That was great.
We didn’t have sewer hook ups but that was more than made up for by the pristine bathrooms, showers, and laundry. My wife said that alone makes this a 10.
And you must go to the little dive cafe in Chiloquin for breakfast. I th8nk it was called “Pops”. Right next to the post office. The corned beef was the best I have ever had. And don’t forget the gravy. Give BIG tip. This is a native American town and your tourist dollar goes a long way. I am serious.
Afterwards,go check out the free miniature train ride at Train Mountain. If you have kids it is a must. Really fun And of course, Crater Lake is a must see

We stayed here for one night while traveling between Lakeview OR and Medford.  It's a clean, cute little campground located in Chiloquin, north of Klamath Lake.  Easy walk to Williamson River where there is a dock and boat ramp.  The spaces were very close together however.  Staff was friendly and we didn't use the restrooms or laundry facilities so can't comment on the cleanliness.  But from the looks of the park, I'm sure they were clean.  We could not use the BBQ because the RV next to us had a slide that came out over the BBQ.  (see photo)  But overall, very nice, small park in a great location.
