Christmas Valley Base Camp offers cozy cabins with electrical hookups, while Paulina Lake Lodge features log cabins with running water and private bathrooms. ["Cozy place great for large groups. Has every thing a campground needs," noted one visitor about Christmas Valley Base Camp.] East Lake Resort provides lakeside cabins built between the 1940s and 1960s, most with toilets and showers. Big Pines RV Park also maintains cabin rentals with access to clean bathroom facilities and WiFi.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Paulina Lake Lodge provides log cabins that range from small three-person units to large family-sized accommodations with fireplaces and comfortable furnishings. According to one camper, the cabins have "running water, bathrooms, cozy fireplaces, comfy couches." Summer Lake Hot Springs offers cabin rentals with electric hookups and access to the natural hot springs. Most cabin facilities require advance reservations, particularly during summer months when Newberry Crater and the surrounding lakes attract visitors. Many campgrounds maintain pet-friendly policies, though restrictions vary by location.

Cooking facilities vary widely between properties, with some cabins offering full kitchens while others provide only basic amenities. Several locations, including Paulina Lake Lodge and East Lake Resort, maintain on-site general stores for basic supplies and fishing gear. The East Lake Resort features "a general store, boat launch, beach and restaurant," as one visitor noted, making it convenient for extended stays. Campgrounds closer to La Pine and Bend offer easier access to full grocery stores and services, while more remote cabin locations near Fort Rock may require bringing all necessary supplies.

    Currier Guard Station

    Good Spot Away From Everyone

    Small cabin with a queen bed and a bunk bed. Propane stove, fridge, lights and fireplace/furnace. Outhouse available but no running water. Road into the site is a little rough at a spot or two.

    Paulina Lake Lodge Cabins

    Amazing food, nice cabins, good views and location

    Old school resort on the shores of beautiful Paulina Lake. Wonderful, small log cabin lodge with amazing food. Other log cabins to rent ranging from three people to large families with fire places, a couple right on the water.

    Cabins have running water, bathrooms, cozy fireplaces, comfy couches. Resort has a boat launch and small general store for supplies, food, and bait.

    The Lake itself is beautiful and the location puts you right next to all of the fun hikes, biking, trails and activities all around Paulina Lake area. Possibly also some spots for RVs.

    Try the Apple Crumble and the“Knife Burger” (huge burger with steak knife stuck in it). You will not be disappointed.

    Summer Lake Hot Springs

    Middle of Nowhere Surprise!

    This funky little private resort and campground, on the way from nowhere to anywhere, has more than you might expect from first glance. The large, dry camping area offers a large field for folks to spread out without being on top of each other. While there are a handful of hookups sites for RV’s, we preferred the less expensive field option.  They have a couple of pit toilets near the field, as well as a full bathroom and shower area.  With our solar powered system, we were able to keep our battery topped off while taking advantage of all that the springs have to offer, which is just a short walk away. 

    They also offer some tiny cabins for rent, each with its own unique rustic charm. The public bath house has a large indoor swimming pool, clean changing rooms, sparkling bathrooms and showers. The outdoor, natural pools are what make this place so unique. Three pools, three differing temperatures helps folks find their own “just right.” The springs have a decidedly rustic charm, with lots of converted farm buildings and antique features, so you might want to adjust your city expectations to a more rural and rougher edged setting. But hot water on a very cold night with views of the starry sky above are just the right about the right cure for whatever ails you. 

    The springs are located about midway between the larger towns of La Pine and Lakeview, around 70ish miles from each, where you can find large grocery stores and services. A few convenience stores, gas, and post offices can be found in the tiny hamlets along the highway. It is a remote, lovely and quiet spot on the edge of this large lake.

    Crescent Lake Guard Station

    The Guard Station

    Been staying here for a number of years and love the spot, its quiet and has a view of the lake + shower and a flush toilet. Clean running water inside as well as outside. A fire pit and picnic table over look the lake and a front porch with chairs for that morning sun.

    This time around the place doesn't seem as clean as in years past (you clean it yourself and the forest service says they do a deep clean once a week, which I would question) and we would find droppings on the kitchen table in the morning. There was also something crawling between the walls that liked to make noise around 5 am every morning, so no sleeping in if you are sleeping in the bedroom.

    I don't think this is worth $120 a night for all the work you need to put in (cleaning, own linens and hall away your trash) especially with COVID and the extra time it took to really wipe stuff down.

    The Camp

    Awesome Urban camping experience

    My wife and I are working remotely and exploring the PNW, and certain amenities are important: full hook up for our trailer, pet friendly, laundry, WiFi, and good location. The Camp HAS it ALL. Located in Bend, close to a Safeway grocery store, Walgreens, Starbucks and Dutch & Bros plus a lot of other places...easy drive to the freeways so you can go explore around. We’ve met a few people that are regulars there and they love it. We loved it too and will be back when in the area. Tyler, the manager is great, cool guy, knows all the details of the trailers and he can tell you a bit about Bend and about things to do since he is local. He takes good care of the place! The Camp is a small campground and very cozy. It has vintage trailers for people to rent as well as a tiny house plus full hook up sites. They also have a common area with gas grills (2), a gas fire pit with blankets available, two tables with umbrellas and chairs, great laundry facility, awesome bathrooms (individual toilette, sink and shower, 4-5 hooks, which is great so you can hang your stuff. Pass code needed for bathrooms and laundry rooms. There is a gated pet area which is great for the dogs to be off leash for a bit (kinda of hidden by the office). They have trash and recycle, which is great. We’ve seen half and half in terms of campgrounds that recycle vs those who don’t. We wish they all had a recycle option and The Camp had glass, plastic, paper, can recycle. The sites are very close to one another and there are not mature trees but you are in the city so that’s expected. While there we went on a cool drive and stopped to see the sea of lava...we are still talking about it...those lavas have been there for over 1,500 years...it is amazing and picturesque. After stopping at the sea of lava, we went to Dee Wright Observatory, walked to the top and enjoyed the beautiful view, then continued on our scenic drive to the proxy falls. It was an easy 1.25 mile (round trip) hike. It was raining so it was a bit muddy and slippery in certain areas but super fun (we had our two dogs with us and we were fine), people were doing the hike with their kids-so good for families too. We loved it. While in Bend, we went to a park in town, which was cute and people were walking around, laying in the grass, paddle Bording, kayaking and we also saw some people getting into the river on a raft. Lots to do in Bend...scenic drives, hiking, mountain biking, road biking, river water rafting, etc. This is a super cool campground, well maintained, super clean and it even has a hair salon in an air stream! This place has personality! We loved it and will be back.

    LaPine State Park Campground

    Near the river& mountains!

    When we Stayed: January, Thursday-Saturday

    The Cabins: we stayed in a deluxe cabin. It had a full bathroom and kitchenette - I've stayed in other state park campgrounds and this was the biggest cabin I've stayed in!

    Location: beautiful wooded park with a trail along the river. On a morning walk I saw a herd of elk cross the river and run behind the cabins! The cabin area was large and private but I didn't explore the rest of the park since it was the middle of winter when we were there.

    Dog Friendly: huge off leash fenced park that's a bit of a walk or quick drive from the main campsites.

    LaPine State Park Campground

    Quick Trip. Perfect for our needs.

    This was a quick overnight stay. Extra star for the pretty snow.

    Literally no issues. Stayed in a cabin with electricity and a working heater. They had a air purifying system installed into each cabin to meet COVID needs.

    Cabin clean, two double beds. Bring your own bedding.

    Small table and two chairs.

    Fantastic wide porch with long bench to sit on watch the stairs.

    Site came with pic nic table and firepit. 

    Dogs romping, walking and hiking around the snow. 

    Roads were pretty easy to get through, and clear signage.

    Clean bathrooms.

    No issues with checking in or out.

    The Camp

    Super cool vibe, great ameneties

    As far as RV parks go, this is the coolest one I have ever been to.  They have RV pads that you can bring your own trailer to, or you can rent one of their beautifully restored vintage trailers or tiny homes that they have on site.  They have a pretty central location in town, so although you won't feel immersed in the wilderness, you will be walking distance from several great breweries and restaurants.  This is the perfect respite after camping in the boondocks for several days.  

    They have a really great common area with a gas fire pit, 2 gas grills, tables, and corn hole.  They also have heated bathrooms and laundry trailers.  You can't be a great business without great staff, and the staff at The Camp Bend is really top notch.  They are a great resource about fun things to do in the area, and are always friendly.  10/10 would recommend.

    LaPine State Park Campground

    Very Clean, Easy to get to, Fantastic Deschutes river access

    Lucky enough to score a last minute site on the State Park website.  South #39.

    It's a great spot, don't pass it up.

    A very short walk through the woods will bring you to the banks of the Deschutes for fishing, floating, kayaking, etc.  We found a small sandy beach that was PERFECT for a happy hour!

    Family friendly campground with a center lawn, some folks were playing badminton and frisbee.  Lot's of kids on bikes enjoying the loop and the forest trails.

    Clean bathrooms with running water, and a delightful warm shower to shed some trail dust after a hike.

    Our site was nicely graveled and level with water, a picnic table, and a fire ring.  $32/ night.

    LOTS of campers had dogs with them, sound of kids playing and dogs saying hello started by 8 am.  Doesn't bother me at all, but If you are looking for forest solitude, this might not be your place on a crowded weekend.

    All-in-all, top notch.  Well done Oregon State Parks!


Guide to Fort Rock

Cabin accommodations near Fort Rock, Oregon provide access to the high desert region at elevations ranging from 4,150 to 4,500 feet. The area features volcanic landscapes with obsidian flows, natural hot springs, and pine forests. Weather varies dramatically with summer temperatures reaching the upper 80s while winter nights frequently drop into the low 40s even during camping season.

What to Do

Explore volcanic features: Newberry Volcano and its surrounding crater area offer unique hiking opportunities. "I love Newberry, and this is a great spot to camp. The rangers are super nice and accommodating, and have everything you would need. Great fishing, hookups, Paulina Lake and the Newberry volcano are must sees. Plus hot springs," notes a visitor to Newberry Group Camp Site.

Visit nearby lakes: Several alpine lakes provide fishing and water activities within 30-45 minutes of Fort Rock. "We went to the big Obsidion Flow is down the road it was cool to go hike on it, Lava that looks like black glass," reported one camper at East Lake Resort.

Explore OHV trails: The area includes designated off-highway vehicle routes for dirt bikes and ATVs. "If you ride ohv's there is a trailhead connected to the Gilchrist Forest with tons of great riding and a lot of non technical smoother dirt roads for little ones in training," mentions a visitor at Big Pines RV Park.

What Campers Like

Natural hot springs access: Several cabin properties feature hot springs on-site. "The pools are well cared for and kept up. Dressing rooms and showers provided," notes a camper at Summer Lake Hot Springs. The clothing-optional policy after 9 pm is appreciated by some visitors.

Dark sky stargazing: The remote location provides exceptional night sky viewing. "Wonderful dark sky. A totally calm day is rare. Hot springs are clothing optional after 9pm, which is a huge plus for us as nudists who hate cold, soggy bathing suits," reports another Summer Lake Hot Springs visitor.

Variety of cabin types: Properties range from rustic to modern with various amenities. "We stayed in one of the cabins, it was clean and made a nice getaway for a couple days," commented a visitor at LaPine State Park Campground, though they noted "Bathrooms are a long walk in the middle of the night so I should have chosen a cabin with a bathroom, my mistake."

What You Should Know

Reservations essential: Most cabin facilities book quickly, particularly during peak summer months. "Very popular in the summer," notes a visitor about East Lake Resort.

Limited supplies: Many cabin locations are remote with minimal shopping options. "Bring food and water, as there are limited (and expensive) groceries in nearby Paisley. The water is hard enough to stand on therefore bring your own," advises a Summer Lake Hot Springs visitor.

Winter access limitations: Some cabin properties close seasonally. "Only one loop of the campground is open in the winter and water is turned off at the sites except for one central location," explains a camper at LaPine State Park Campground.

Tips for Camping with Families

Look for cabin clusters: Some properties offer cabin groupings ideal for family gatherings. "Cozy place great for large groups," mentions a visitor about Christmas Valley Base Camp.

Consider cabin proximity to facilities: Bathroom distance varies significantly between properties. "Some of the sites are rather far away from the faculties," notes a LaPine State Park Campground visitor.
