Best RV Parks & Resorts near Fort Klamath, OR

665 Reviews

Fort Klamath provides several RV accommodations within proximity to Crater Lake National Park. Waterwheel RV Park & Campground offers 32 sites, including full hookup options with 50-amp service, though some visitors note significant slope on certain sites. Crater Lake RV Park in Prospect features big-rig friendly spaces with 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections. Crater Lake Resort in Fort Klamath accommodates RVs with electric, water, and sewer hookups but lacks 50-amp service for larger motorhomes. Sites throughout the region vary considerably in size and privacy, with Waterwheel's riverfront sites (1-11) offering better spacing than their central full hookup area. "Sites are pretty private with good tree coverage at Williamson River, which felt much more peaceful compared to places geared towards RV camping," noted one visitor.

Fall through spring access requires careful planning as many RV parks operate seasonally. Diamond Lake RV Park runs from mid-May through mid-October, while others like Waterwheel remain open year-round. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with stronger signals reported at Waterwheel RV Park but limited connectivity closer to Crater Lake. RVs exceeding 28 feet may encounter challenges on forest roads and in older campgrounds with tighter turning radiuses. Dump stations are available at several locations including Collier Memorial State Park, where non-campers can use facilities for a small fee or donation. Most parks welcome pets but enforce leash requirements. During peak summer months, particularly July and August, advance reservations are strongly recommended as proximity to Crater Lake creates high demand.

    Joseph H. Stewart County Park

    Great State Park

    We chose an RV hookup site for our 40' coach with tow vehicle. 30 amp power but based on forecasted cold weather they had turned off the water at the sites. Potable water was available at the dump station. Free warm showers and flush toilets. However, the bathrooms are old and appear dirty and grimy (rust stains, chipped paint, etc). Great walking and bath paths at the park and close enough to visit Crater Lake National Park. Large trees within the park though it doesn't provide much privacy with camp neighbors. In late October they had reduced the open loops but there was a good mix of tent and RV campers.

    Waterwheel RV Park & Campground

    Nice RV Park to Explore the Area

    Easy check in in this quaint little RV park right off OR 97 on the Williamson River. We were directed to our pull through site 26 with water and electric but only 30 AMP. We had to disconnect and park in the little field across from or trailer, which was not a big deal. Our site had 30 AMP but there were 50 AMP spots in the middle and on the river rows. All three rows with RV hook ups had sites close together as we had to adjust our rig to clear trees so we could get our slides out. There were plenty of areas to include a small playground and large grass area to walk the dogs. Verizon cell, cable, and the WIFI all worked well. Water Wheel was a well kept campground with 32 RV sites plus a private island connected by a small walking bridge across the river for tent campers. If we were tent campers this would definitely be a great place to camp. We enjoyed exploring the area.  We would stay here again, but would definitely book in advance to get a river row site with 50 AMPs.

    Waterwheel RV Park & Campground

    Great Location & Great People

    We stayed for one week in site#23 with 50-amp electric service and water. Only the middle row of the park has full hookups, although the park has been making improvements since the current owners took over a couple of years ago. The manager and camp hosts are terrific! Very welcoming and very friendly. Most of the sites are small. There are a couple of sites that are a little bit bigger, especially those sites facing East. Site#11 is the best, in my opinion, as your patio would be right on the river! Aside from the size of the small site, the only downer for us is there weren't a lot of places to walk our dog without driving somewhere and no enclosed dog area. Otherwise, the park is dog-friendly. Plus, you and your dog can swim in the Williamson River that is there onsite. Cell signals from AT&T and Verizon provided enough connectivity for us to work during the week. AT&T, in particular, had a very good and strong signal.  As the park is only about 40 minutes from Crater Lake National Park's South Entrance.

    Klamath Falls KOA

    Friendliest, cleanest spot for an overnight stay

    We avoid KOAs and other full amenities campgrounds because they're pricey and not the camping experience we desire but when we have chore day, we like a one-stop shop and will seek these out to dump, shower, do laundry. This is our second stay at this particular KOA over a couple of different trips. 

    • Easy to reserve online, great communication 
    • Friendliest staff ever! 
    • Clean, clean bathrooms and laundry room (I observed them cleaning on a regular schedule) 
    • Easy access from highway 
    • Lots of road noise and bright lights all night 
    • Cramped spaces (they pack 'em in) 
    • Dump station in non-FHU is oddly placed near the very busy propane refill area
    • Cheapest propane in town (this is why many of the food truck and restaurant vendors come here) 
    • Nice little convenience 
    • Conveniently located near restaurants, grocery and other stores-- many within walking distance 
    • OK wi-fi. It's better by the laundry room 
    • Good little walking path nearby 

    We'll definitely keep this on our favs list when we have chore day.

    Annie Creek Sno-Park

    Great off season camping

    Camped here night before visiting Crater Lake National Park. Only 20min from entrance. Oct 1-Nov 1 it is free to camp in Sno park -after Nov 1 you will need a Sno pass permit. Can camp in parking lot at top of park or drive down into forest for better private spots, even some on a creek. Road is dirt and bumby so don't recommend for big rigs or trailers. Our camper van did just fine and we saw cars camped down there. Beautiful night sky with stars twinkling above the forest trees. Definitely would go back and recommend to people going to Crater Lake. Felt safe. -we tried dispersed camping (Odessa hwy 140) near upper Klamath falls lake that was sketchy and too secluded.

    Waterwheel RV Park & Campground

    A decent RV park

    We are generally not fans of RV parks but there were not a lot of options on our route near Klamath Falls. There are 34 sites; sites 12-20 are full hookup; the others have water and electricity. Sites 1-11 have Williamson River front views. The full hookup sites are in the center and have no privacy between them (but people in these sites would typically have larger RVs and not need privacy as much). In my opinion, Site 11 is the best site as it is a corner site with the most privacy. 

    The restrooms/showers are immaculate and are accessed via a keypad. There is also a very nice laundry room, playground (a bit dated), boat ramp, small beach (tents can set up here) and fire pit, and a dump station. There is actually a waterwheel! Cell service is strong and there is free WiFi. 

    Note that this park is located on Highway 97 and you will hear road-noise, especially at night when everything else quiets down. Despite this, we had a pleasant stay and Tracy in the office was very nice and helpful (we needed an additional 30 amp tail to use the electric and she provided us one to borrow).

    Diamond Lake RV Park

    Good creater lake location

    Full service RV Park in the national Forest 40 minutes from Crater lake rim. Large Park in the woods. Visited in late July and it was only half full. For the weekday pretty quiet and peaceful. Some deferred maintenance like roadways crumbling in spots but all the basics were met. Great little pizza restaurant on the lakes edge is just walking distance.

    Rocky Point Resort

    Great views of Lake... thats about it

    4-5 pull thru sites. Pretty close together so the fire pit is a foot away from my slide out. There are some back in sites on the edges of the camp. Didn’t eat at the restaurant. Kayaks and paddle boats to rent. Staff are nice but hard to find at times. Bathrooms are clean but very rustic. Paid about $50 in April for full hookups- no cable, but has slow wifi.

    Mazama Village Campground — Crater Lake National Park

    Closest campground to Crater Lake National Park

    Mazama Campground offers a serene retreat nestled within Crater Lake National Park, surrounded by a lush forest that provides privacy and tranquility. The reservation process requires you to provide your dates and size of RV and are assigned a site when you arrive. As I walked around it appeared pull-through sites were for RVs and trailers, and back-in sites that were assigned to tent or car campers. The pull through sites were long, some are asphalt and others dirt. Our site D5 was asphalt and level. The amenities, including clean bathrooms, accessible water spigots, and regular trash collection, contribute to a comfortable stay. The general store is a convenient spot for registration, fuel, and showers, it's also the starting point for exploring the breathtaking Crater Lake via tour bus or personal vehicle. Even though a forest fire limited visibility of the lake, Mazama Campground remains a memorable destination for its natural beauty and well-maintained facilities.
