"We enjoyed the great walking paths around the perimeter of the park to walk our dogs. The pool and hot tub are heated geothermally and are warm, soothing, and oh, so relaxing."
"The tent and yurt sites are beautifully situated next to a stream full of cattails and lily pads. Wild deer roam nearby and horses graze in the fields around the park. Not far from town either."
"Although there’s not a ton of spots, it’s lovely and was a quiet solitude away from the road but not too far. Saw a ton of wildlife too (bring your bear spray)."
"Most of the sites overlooked a beautiful lake stick among the hills, and we’re in decent shape with a fire ring, table and little grill."
"Great stop over RV Park in the mountains between Idaho and Oregon in Baker City oregon. Full hookups pull throughs a small shop and a great little town. Well managed and clean. Large dog run."
"Nice clean bathrooms, reasonable price (and don’t mind car charging), a little loud from the highway."
"As the water pressure here is around 100 psi, you need to use a reducer. Sites are close to one another but you still have a grass yard with some separation."
"Set up as old mining town, the outside of the bldgs has nice antiques and starts you off feeling good about where you're staying."
$10 / night
"We stayed at campsite 5, which seems like an odd choice since it's right next to the welcome signage and fee drop box, but we really liked it because we were able to spread out along the side of the creek"
"This site is close to the main road so must watch kiddos and dogs at all times. It is also close to the river, so watch those kiddos. There's a wonderful trail with a wooden bridge to start off."
"I was too tired to drive all the way to Boise. This place was clean, the owner, Steffi, lives on the premises, and everything works. I slept well except for the occasional train."
$12 - $100 / night
"We headed this way to get away from smoke caused by the 2020 Central Oregon fires. It was a great choice. Still hazy long distance views but had great views of the stars at night. "
"**Ranger Review: Midland Radios at Anthony Lakes Campground Review: **
This is my favorite place in Oregon."

"Beautiful campsite, nice walk around the lake. It was mostly empty with some snow patches still on the ground."
"Lovely location in the mountains of Oregon. We drove a few thousand feet up a gravel road to get to this campsite. Easy access for my little sedan."
ScoutSurrounded by fir and pine, pleasant breeze, and cool, shaded sites. Picnic tables, fire rings, and 1 pit toilet (clean). $10/night.
GuideVery nice RV park. very clean and well maintained. Roads and all sites are gravel. Lots of green grass areas and dog areas. All sites are pull through and can accommodate large RV's. Would definitely stay here again.
GuideVery nice and well-kept State Park. Lots of green grass. All sites are back-in with level gravel pads. No hook-ups. uncrowded, only a few sites taken. Great place to stop with very interesting history. Will definitely stay here again.
TravelerI really like this location. I wanted to pa down by the water, but we are pulling a small camper and the road looked way too rough to go all the way down. There was a car down there, so definitely passable, but not with our camper. The sites earlier on the road are nice though. Pretty big, with fire rings. Only complaint is the noise from the road. Not terrible, but definitely audible from where we were at with our windows open.
GuideWe've never camped here, mainly because we live nearby. Yes, it is windy here, great for windsurfers.
The directions offered are a little off. From North Powder Hwy 237, you will turn right on Government Gulch Road. When you get to the RR crossing, turn right, cross the tracks onto Telocaset Lane.
You can get there from the other side too. Stop at Pondosa Store for a little local history and some snacks. From Hwy 203 near Medical Springs, you go West on Telocaset Lane to Thief Valley Reservoir.
TravelerWell kept and nice rangers. Accommodating and quiet, lots of wild life. This is bear country so it thats not your thing, i wouldnt camp there. Lots of things to do close by both inexpensive and more expensive.
TravelerPretty mountain valley campground with many full hookup pull through sites. Friendly staff at check-in as well, taking time to help me 3 minutes before closing for the evening. The two hot spring fed soaking pools were open for “twilight soak” until 11 PM which was a great touch after a long day on the road.
The only issue I had was that the sewer cap at my site was so tight that I couldn’t remove it by hand, but that didn’t seem to be the case at any of the other sites.
TravelerOur stay here was relaxing and fun. There are natural hot spring soaking pools at the campground. One pool is warm and the other is hot. I was grateful for the health benefits of the mineral soak. The resort is well taken care. It’s new and clean. The historic lodge at Hot lake is only one mile down the road. There are many birds. The resort lies next to a wildlife refuge.
GuideI got here on a Sunday in April and the campground was completely empty. There are 8 spots total, most which are right on the river. They are spread out with lots of trees so you can't see the other sites at all. The sounds of the river have me in a meditative state all the time. Just so peaceful and pretty.
The campground is divided into 2 sets of 4 with one set of spots further up the road in a different unmarked entrance. I guess they used to be connected but a flood made them two separate divided areas. Directions are easy. Waze took me right here with just the campground name.
No cell service at all with TMobile. But most sites have good sky for satellite and solar.
