It was first come, first served when I was there. What you expect from free USFS campsites. Fire rings.
Google will take you down some crazy roads. Look at the map before getting on the dirt road and choose the roads that are the straightest; those will get you there easiest. Panhandle rd on the north side of the creek will take you most of the way.
Guide
There’s nothing here except the highway but you can drive down the bike trail and stay there as well, just so your further away from the lot and the road.
Scout
Stayed at site PRV 18. Site is right next to the road with no sound barrier. Very loud traffic late evening and early morning. You won’t get a decent nights rest. The positive: staff very friendly, clean bathrooms, and warm showers.
Scout
This is a crowded, run down campground. The campsites had personal items/a sofa left outside their unit. Many units had clutter and misc. stuff outside of their RV. We wouldn't advise staying here.
Traveler
Sur les conseils d une rangers nous avons passé une nuit avant d obtenir une place a mazama. Très calme
Ranger
Having always wanting to , but never pulling the trigger, finally changed. OMG it was FANTASTIC!!
Easy drive, with paved roads until the very end. One receives the gate code the week prior to the reservation for the gate & door. Upon arrival you are greeted with MAGNIFICENT VISTAS 360 degrees!! Wrap-around balcony & windows!! Wee fireplace inside & a fire pit outside. 2 picnic tables. A vault toilet 20 yards away from cabin.
Don’t wait….pull the trigger!!!

One night layover on the way to Crater National Park. Level sites. Well maintained and clean. Right off the river...love the views.
Guide
The view was absolutely stunning on the first day then it turned to rainy with harsh winds and very cold the second day. Maybe I went a bit too late in the season:/ This campground is really only set up for tent campers. The place to park for vehicles is far from level. Even with camper jacks I was sleeping at an angle. If you have a van or camper I would recommend parking at one of the more level pull offs before the campground then just walking up for the view.
TravelerGreat place to layover. Staff is super. Facilities clean. Has small island where dogs can be off leash and play in the water. Beautiful river. Few folks fly fishing. One star off only for the highway noise - but if you live on or near a busy road or highway you may not even notice it. If the campground was further off the highway, it would be a five. ATT was usable. Didn’t try WiFi.
Guide
We are traveling in a 20’ van. We are at lake view. Big rigs around us, but we dont feel crowded. Trails around. Fishing and just relaxing
Bathrooms (showers and toilet) are close. Need some update but I have seen worst
Has a cafe. Havent been there for food but at check in looked pretty good
Guide
They have about 4 first come first serve sites, otherwise sites are available if tag on site is not for the nite you pull in. Plenty were available when we were there on a Sunday afternoon. Most sites are wide but many are not real long, but width allows for unhooking and space for vehicle or creative parking. Sites are spread out nicely. Our site had no site on one side and back to a trail to lake. Toilets were flush with sink. They honor the senior/golden/etc passes. Some highway noise. But quiet at nite.
Guide
The road was rough at first but smoothed out enough that we weren't worried in our van. There are only a few pullouts here, and no one else was around.
TravelerCheck in was very slow. The person checking everyone in also had to make coffee drinks and ring in diner sales. I was skipped over for someone else who rushed the line to check in. The store is not well stocked but has some useful items. The boats could use some attention and a fire extinguisher would be a good idea. The gentleman who helped us get the boat out and dock it was very nice! Campfires not allowed right now which is understandable with the fire risks. They have a shower for quarters and a two stall bathroom which are very small. The lake is beautiful!
Traveler
I had a great experience sleeping overnight in my car at the travel center! Just make sure you ask the cashiers before crashing for the night! Was such a great experience I ended up sleeping there a night on my way into town, and a second on my way back home!
Guide
Great quiet camping. Large flat easy to park and hook up. Tent camping also offered. Very clean.
TravelerWe 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
ScoutThis campground is an excellent choice for an overnight stay when visiting Crater Lake National Park. The sites offer flat ground, making it easy to set up a tent. Although it is close to the road, it is secluded enough to provide a peaceful night's sleep. Be aware that during our visit, we encountered many hungry and persistent mosquitoes, so I highly recommend bringing insect repellent and other mosquito-prevention measures.
The tent sites can be found by following an unpaved road downhill from the large parking lot. There are two basic restrooms located at the entrance, but there is no potable water available, so be sure to bring your own. If you don't use the entry restrooms, please practice Leave No Trace principles to keep the area clean and natural. The proximity to Crater Lake allows for convenient early morning starts to explore the park. Overall, it's a great spot for both solo travelers and families looking for a comfortable camping experience.
Scout
This is definitely a campground for families. not much privacy between spots, they are all pretty much right next to eachother. if you’re looking for a more secluded, private campground i wouldn’t recommend this. that being said the nature surrounding the campground is pretty. i’m sure the lake is nice to take a dip in, wouldn’t know because we left early but if you’re just looking for a family vacation this would be a good spot. bathrooms were mostly clean and they have showers! and allowed fires even in the heatwave.
Scout
Lake of the Woods does not entirely honor the "America the Beautiful" interagency pass, even tho it is privately run it is on public NFS land that those passes should cover.
Shame on Lake of the Woods for taking money from Gold Star Families, Veterans, and Active Duty Servicemen and Women.
It's a privatized mess. Don't go there. Diamond Lake, Odell Lake, Paulina Lake are MUCH better destinations AND honor "America the Beautiful" passes.
Traveler
Gorgeous wooded campsites along the lake. VERY kind camp host (Mark) who helped me out even tho I arrived late and without rez. Clean facilities. I was in a quiet spot but lots of families/groups even on a weekday evening. Your quiet might depend on luck of who you’re situated with.
Traveler
Emigrant Lake may not be your destination if you are looking for a lot of privacy and quiet, but is a nice option to get out in nature while still being close to town. Oak Slope has some spots that can be fairly private, with nice tent camping amenities and easy access to the lakeside.
TravelerIf you are looking for a free site (during the right time of year) this is a good option. Sites are pretty private with beautiful views of Shasta. Cell service is sketchy so be prepared.
Traveler
This little campground was a great find! As a tent camper, this felt much more peaceful compared to Collier Memorial campgrounds which seems to be geared towards RV camping. Campsites are pretty private, good tree coverage, and bathrooms were clean. Camp host was very kind and friendly. I can't wait to stay here again!
Traveler
Midweek in June and only one other site occupied? Really comfortable campground. Lovely loop trail around a beaver pond. Includes an actual spring with water from Mount McLaughlin. Dry camping only in 2024. No camp host when I was there. But clean with generous, well spaced sites. Probably fills on weekends.
GuideThe pin on map is off by about 2 miles, but once you find correct spot, it's pretty nice. Clean and easy access. Short walk to the river. (The gravel road in is nice however recent logging has made it a bit bumpy)
Guide
I stayed here on the first night of the Oregon Outback. It is a very small simple designated camping area with a very clean pit toilet and a few picnic tables but nothing else.
A few loggers and Forest service trucks passed on the road, but mostly traffic was cyclists.
Listened to birds and coyotes and enjoyed being under the canopy of stars. Great little spot.
TravelerWe camped on the slope. Nice view of the lake. Little shade, would be tough in high summer. Lake was full and our dog enjoyed chasing sticks. Camp host Connie was super. Facilities were newer and clean. There is a new bathroom up in the back of the campground that has automatic exhaust fans that are really loud and you have to wait for them to time-out. You might not notice the roar during the day, but if you’re camped nearby in the quiet hours, you will hear them. They are quite robust. Had a couple bars of ATT. For high summer I’d recommend bringing a popup and lots of ice. It’s a 10 minute drive to town or so. Nice place.
