Lofton Reservoir Campground is one of the three main points of interest in the Lofton Recreation Area. Located 45 minutes east of Bly, Oregon, this highly developed campground features 26 campsites. 24 of the campsites are RV sites. The road is paved all the way to Lofton Area Reservoir, ideal if you’re towing a trailer or boat. A camp host is on site throughout the summer months and provides visitor information. These spacious campsites accommodate trailers and feature grills, fire rings, picnic tables, and tent pads. There are four vault toilets, five group sites, and one ADA designated site. This high elevation forest setting showcases a mixed conifer stand. The refreshing lakeside environment attracts migratory birds and deer. Although the water level varies in the reservoir, it is stocked annually. There is a boat ramp and dock that is ADA accessible. Besides fishing and relaxing, you can hike 1.5 miles to Heart Lake on a defined trail. This hike is uphill on the way back to Lofton, making it a moderate 3 mile round-trip trek. Some campers bring their pole, food, and make it a day outing of fishing, picnicking, and hiking. There is no potable water. Visitors need to pack an adequate supply of water.
Lassen is a lovely little campground near the obsidian mines. It is currently under discussion for decommissioning.This is__open area camping as there are no designated camp-sites. FRock fire rings are located throughout the area.
Although we had new solar, it was too hot to depend on that alone for the night, so my wife found this location. It was not a bad night's stay.
There are a few sites, all on dirt/gravel slots, no trees in the parking area. Nearest to the shower-bath house are double sites, a plug, 30-amp power and water for each side of the power box, and out towards the street are more like single sites, my wife was told those sites are for bigger rigs. The RV parking all looked like relatively new installations for the water and power.
Full hook up is water and electric with a dump station on site, no at site dumping available, for $25.00.
There is a pay station located at the shower-bath building with pay envelopes to fill out and drop in a lock box.
Bathrooms were actually very nice and clean. One side is the two bathrooms the other side two shower rooms.
The showers cost $3 or 5 dollars IN QUARTERS ONLY, and there is a change machine by the bathrooms if needed. As we were in our small Micro-Minnie Winnebago we opted to try the shower room. My wife and I paid the $3 for both of us and used the shower at the same time. Good water pressure, clean room, warm water.
We didn't need to dump, but it wasn't said well on any signage we saw, and we believed paying for full hook up was also to mean dumping was paid for. It costs $5.00 to dump if you don't pay for full or just need to stop and dump.
As there were no directions we were unsure how exactly you were supposed to park to be in "your site" so we just kinda went with it and parked to be able to stay connected to our truck without the truck sticking out too far in the driving lanes in case others came in to stay. There were only three RVs at the location that night, including ours, so it wasn't crowded.
It seemed like the back of the RV was supposed to be at the power water connection, but we never did find out for sure.
Since this visit was during the heatwave of July 2022, it was VERY nice to have power for the night, and we had our rig A/C on all night long.
It was a very quiet night, and if we were in in the region again, as long as the fair isn't going, we wouldn't have any problem staying there again. Overall a nice place, and we saved a lot of money from staying at a regular RV park. Nothing fancy but not bad either in our opinion.
There is a large group site. Restrooms and showers. RV hookups and a clean out station. Dog friendly but not very private. Almost no vegetation separating sites.
Camping for 4 nights. Pay is per person and $10 extra for full RV hookups. It’s open, and hot. It would uncomfortable without air conditioning. The hot pool and outdoor smaller pools are hot but not super hot. It’s mineral water and lovely to float in the indoor pool. No picnic table or shade. There are cabins.
Peaceful and beautiful RV park about 8 miles west of Lakeview Oregon. All pull-thru level sites. Clean bathrooms/showers/laundry. Large grassy area with volleyball, horseshoes, and cornhole. Lots of hiking trails and rven a lake with fishing.
Private “campground” near Lakeview, Oregon (right along the Northern California border) functions more like a year round RV park; most of the residents are permanent although there are spots for travelers passing through. Call ahead for availability to make sure there’s space and they can accommodate your rig.
In total, the owner told me that they have 18 versatile sites they keep for travelers that can accommodate tents. Six of them are pull thrus with electric hookups, and five of those have water hookups. Dump station is not available on site. Friendly folks in the off chance you ever find yourself in this neck of the woods!
A really fun RV park with good shade. The owners were extremely nice and helpful. We could see Oregon’s only geyser erupt from our site!
Absolutely fantastic experience at Oregon Outback RV Park! We recently had the pleasure of hosting our family reunion here, and I can’t say enough about how perfect it was. The owners went above and beyond by reserving the entire park exclusively for our family, creating a private and intimate setting that made our reunion truly special. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by how clean and well-maintained the entire site was. The stunning view of Abert Rim added to the charm, and being nestled among the trees made for a picturesque and serene backdrop to our stay. But what truly set Oregon Outback RV Park apart was the warmth and kindness of the owners. They were not only incredibly accommodating but also genuinely wonderful people who made us feel right at home. Their hospitality was a highlight of our stay and added an extra layer of joy to our gathering. If you’re looking for a great family camp experience, look no further. Oregon Outback RV Park is a hidden gem that offers a perfect blend of cleanliness, charm, and heartfelt service. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to create lasting memories with our loved ones. Highly recommend it to anyone seeking a memorable and delightful camping experience!
Small little rv park. Owner is very friendly and accommodating. Site was huge and spaced out. Bathrooms were clean. Quiet. It was amazing. Scenery was awesome.
Clean campground with amazing views from the bathhouse. Full hookups on level pads and cabins if you left your rv at home. Hint. Take a warm, fluffy robe and good sandals for your walk to and from the soaking pools.
Cows… you will see many open range cows while you drive down a long gravel road and again when you reach your destination at Mud Creek. The creek is somewhat seasonal, but you can find a small stream on the road across from the campsite. Not enough water to go fishing or swimming. There is no cell service out there, but many hiking trails and peace and quiet if that is what you are searching for. There is a trailhead a mile up the road with parking. There are vault toilets and space for both tent and RV camping. Be on the look out for rattlesnakes, ticks, and cows out here.
We were driving through and didn't make it to our next destination due to weather. Making a reservation on the road was easy online. Got our spot number and just pulled in and plugged into the power. Not much here but you get power, water, sewer and trash. Great little RV spot. You need to back in though. Only 6 spots here.
Very nice out of the way stop. Very friendly camp hosts and good directions in and out. Facilities are older but well maintained. Some full time residents, but lot’s of available spots when we stopped by early in the season. Shower, bathrooms, laundry, water and electrical hookups. Lot’s of acreage to wander and beautiful vistas in every direction. Good AT&T service and the park has Wi-Fi.
There are spots to park your RV and hook up to water and electric. It is a gravel parking lot. There are designated tent spots in the dirt next to the gravel parking lot.
There is a nice heated restroom with flush toilets. Showers are available, however they are $3.
The area was very windy and noisy.
Camped here in Oct 2020. This is a USFS campground in the Fremont Winema NF. No hookups but large private sites with fire rings and ginormous picnic tables plus vault toilets. There’s water but only in season. Close to Hart Mtn Antelope Refuge. Would camp here again.
This campground has a vault toilet, a water pump, and a brown water dump site. It has 7 back in camping spots, and there is fishing nearby. I would suggest smaller trailers and Rvs or tent camping. If you need phone or internet service this site is not for you.
Free spots, totally barren with Mars-like landscape and no trees. You're completely exposed to the elements, though there are covered picnic tables and fire pits. Beware of the pit toilets since they are often home to black widows (not the Marvel superhero…sadly). Sunstones galore. Easy to pick up right at your camp site. Not far from some of the best sunstone mines in the world. No water. Be sure to bring all your supplies with you as the nearest stores is miles away. No hookups for trailers, though properly supplied and with decent clearance and spare tires for the gravel road, there is space to park them.
A small quiet campground near, but not on Drews creek. Only space for about 4 maybe 5 RVs. All sites great for tents. There are no services - no water, no electric, no dump. It does have two very nice and clean modern pit toilets. We had no cell service.
This campground is HIGH up in the mountains (over 5,000 feet) so remember sunscreen, water, and the fact that it’s going to get plenty cold at night regardless of the season. There is a lot of BLM boondocking activity in this area so it’s nice to have an actual campground.
There are seven sites in total and according to signage you can stay for a maximum of 14 days. This is plenty even when you take into consideration the vast number of hiking trails and off circuit lakes to explore. It’s a beautiful corner of California and highly underrated.
RVs can fit in these spots but the maximum length is about 24 feet. Vault toilets. No camp host and no cell service.
It’s not a bad little park. Has electricity and water at the sites. Almost all our drive-through. Cost is $35 a night. Have bathrooms and showers.
Showers are not marked men or women. I am wondering if that’s the Oregon thing.
They’re working on making us a little nicer place. I think they’re going to have a store but they don’t have anything right now.
It’s right along the highway but it doesn’t seem too noisy. It’s not a busy road. Or at least not tonight.
Everything is gravel.
They have propane.
They don’t have a restriction on how old your RV is.
Camped here in my 19' Jayco Jayflight travel trailer. The spots are right along the creek with lots of mature trees as well as a toilet. It was fairly level and easy to get into a spot. This is more like boondocking than camping as the spots are not improved and the road in is dirt. It is beautiful. It's close to Davis Creek where people rockhound for Obsidian which is why I was there in the first place. I enjoyed camping here and would do so again.
You drive down a gravel road right through a 6,000 acre working cattle ranch. There are 40 pull through RV sites with electric, water, and some sites have sewer. There is a dump station. We were there during a Blue moon with no light pollution and it felt like you could grab it out of the sky. Was quite an unexpected find.
The sunstone is Oregon’s State rock. HERE AT THIS LOCATION YOU CAN COLLECT THEM FREE OF CHARGE - but don’t be greedy! They come in all shapes and sizes, but most are the size of a fingernail or baby’s tooth. You will need to drive out 45-90minutes on a gravel road to reach this location and it is truly out in Oregon’s Outback and will take a full day to reach your destination. FYI DO NOT PICK SUNSTONES UNTIL YOU REACH END-POINT. The surrounding land is not for public use. You will know you’re good to go and at the end-point when you see the photos below with the sign and camp site. It would be safer to Camp in an RV or car because of rattlesnakes and heat-exposure. We did not stay because of the poor air quality from summer fires nearby. There are wild antelope and rabbits in the area. Keep on the look out for wildlife on your drive! No shade is available except for the covered Camp spots. You will see the MANY Sunstones laying out on the ground, sparking in the sun, no need for digging which is quite fun. Sunstones are made from the minerals in the dried up/preserved lake in this area. Lake county is full of seasonal lakes is what we discovered on our road trip this summer...Good luck and have fun!
The Campground: Oregon Sunstone Collection Area
Sunstones are the Oregon state gemstone, and out in the middle of the Oregon desert the Bureau of Land Management has set aside an amazing area where you can camp and rockhound for free. There's shade areas covering picnic tables, a pit toilet (filled with black widow spiders), and large camp sites with level gravel tent pads.
The campsite is amazing, yet remote. If it weren't for the black widow spiders in the pit toilet and lack of water, this site would easily rate a 5. As it was, we had an amazing time staying here for two nights, picking up sunstones everywhere as well as visiting a local "fee" mine called Pana Mine. Smallish sunstones are everywhere right on the surface. If you want to find larger sunstones or ones with unusual colors, local mines have several pricing options.

Ranger Review: Oofos OOlala Sandal - Cloud White
I've been wearing my Oofos Flip Flops (OOlala Sandal - Cloud White) for several weeks now and I have nothing but good things to say about them. As a dyrt ranger, I was given a pair to review for free, and I was quite excited having heard such great things beforehand from other rangers. They definitely lived up to the hype. Super-comfy, thick soles that held up well even to rocks and hiking, and the ability to send them through the wash are all huge pluses in my book.
To truly put them to the test, however, I brought them with me to the suntone collection area near Plush, Oregon--an area in the middle of the Oregon desert literally covered with sharp glass-like rocks. I knew none of the other sandals or water shoes I had would hold up to all those rocks, and I was also dubious with the Oofos. After all, other flip-flops I've had in the past would always get rocks and thorns stuck in the bottom that would tear holes in them. After three days out in the desert however, I was thrilled to have my Oofos including the sole still looking like new. Definitely a 5/5 star review for my favorite new shoes.
Check out the video review to hear my sizing tips and the one suggestion I have to make them better.
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.
Owners were friendly and willing to help us with whatever needed, including giving good directions to some of the beautiful local scenic sites. We loved the big shade trees and green grass at our group’s 3 sites. Plenty of room for our big RV’s in the easy pull-through sites. We stayed 2 nights on our way through the Oregon outback and would definitely come back.
Back in July 2019, my buddy and I rode our motorcycles to this camp/hot spring. I had heard of this place from another friend on Facebook & this was our destination. A wonderful ride to this easy-to-find site. Everything from full-service cabins to rent and RVs, down to what we used, tent camping. Beautiful but spartan tent camping area, portable toilets (clean), and cable spools used as tables. The hot springs were WONDERFUL, with both indoor (bathhouse) and outdoor pools. If I recall. clothing optional after 9pm. The operators of this facility are extremely "green" in thinking, with the re-use of most building materials, etc. Their website is excellent and gives more details. Highly recommend!!
A good choice if all you want is a place to park for the night. $15 for dry camping, $20 for electric, $25 for water. Free WiFi $5 Dump station Good for dry weather, the parking lot will probably be muddy if wet.
RV camping near Plush, Oregon offers a unique blend of stunning landscapes and welcoming facilities, perfect for both families and solo adventurers.
