Best Cabin Camping near Prineville, OR

Prineville Reservoir State Park offers cabin accommodations with both water views and hillside locations. The cabins feature electricity, heat, and basic furnishings, with beds, tables, and seating areas. Most units include porches for enjoying the scenery. "The cabins were amazing and the tent sites looked great too. Stay in the cabins on the hill above the lake," notes one camper who visited. The dog-friendly cabin sits near the park entrance with views of both the reservoir and the hillside where deer frequently pass by on their way to the water.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Prineville Reservoir Resort, The Camp in Bend, and Redmond/Central Oregon KOA all provide cabin options for visitors. Reservations are strongly recommended, particularly during summer months when the reservoir attracts boaters and swimmers. Many cabins require advance booking through reservation systems. Some locations permit pets in designated cabins for an additional fee. A visitor mentioned, "The dog friendly one is perched uphill by the park entrance. There is still a view from the front porch of the reservoir."

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary widely between properties, with some offering minimal cooking equipment while others provide more complete setups. Camp hosts at some locations sell firewood and ice for visitors. Nearby Prineville has grocery stores for additional supplies, though items at campground stores are limited to essentials. During peak summer season when water activities are popular, cabins typically fill months in advance, so early booking is essential.

    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.

    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.

    Antelope RV Park and Campsites

    Awesome campground

    Antelope is a strange and beautiful little place. Part ghost town, part living community, it is often a welcome oasis on the Oregon Outback cycling trail. The path north out of Prineville is a beautiful ascent-descent of the Ochoco Mountains, which is pretty exhausting. If weather is a factor (we arrived in cold, wet and punishing wind) Antelope is a much better place to camp than Shaniko which is 8 miles up on a plateau.

    The RV Park is a work in progress. We arrived without a reservation and were given a very nice spot to camp behind an old diner. Some small a-frame cabins are available with more being built, and a few spots to park campers with sewer dump and 30 amp hookups.

    Overall I give this campground an outstanding rating. Hospitable, well-equipped, well-situated… great spot.

    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.

    Deschutes River Campground — The Cove Palisades State Park

    Fun Times!

    This campground has it all, except water. Although, the water is nearby & there's bumper boats! Electricity, running water, showers, a fire pit, picnic table, a campstore, & firewood for sale. We only stayed two nights, but we had a great time. We went to nearby Richardson Rock Ranch & came back to the campground in the evenings. We will be coming back.

    Pelton Park Campground

    Great dog and family friendly campground

    Pelton park was clean and well taken care of during our visit. The park is very family-friendly, with easy physical access to restrooms, the docks and playground equipment. Pet-friendly too, stocked poo bags, poles by restrooms to hold leashes and a small fenced-in area to let the dogs run and play. Docks were clean and safe. Rental boats were well-maintained. The yomes are small, 6 people and 2 dogs is tight and gear had to stay outside with that many people, but we all fit. The lake itself is beautiful, good fishing, and appreciate the 10mph speed limit throughout the majority of the lake.

    Bend / Sisters Garden RV Resort

    Quaint Garden

    We were fortunate to stay at Bend Sisters Garden RV Resort in Sisters, Oregon. It was lovely and filled with lush greenery 🌿🌱🌲 and beautiful flowers 💐 🌸 🌺 🌹🌷🌼. The resort is meticulously clean. The bathrooms and showers were in a log cabin and hook ups were the nicest we’ve seen. 5 ⭐️ in our opinion.


Guide to Prineville

Prineville Reservoir spans 3,030 acres and sits at an elevation of 3,234 feet in the high desert landscape of central Oregon. Seasonal temperature variations can be significant, with summer days often reaching 90°F while nights cool considerably. Cabin accommodations near Prineville serve as comfortable base camps for exploring the juniper-dotted hillsides and water recreation opportunities throughout the area.

What to do

Fishing at the reservoir: Prineville Reservoir offers excellent fishing opportunities for crappie, bass, and trout. "Great campground with boat access and cabins. They have the best fishing dock and cleaning station that I have yet to see. We had great luck catching many crappie here which made great fish tacos for our Camp dinner," notes a visitor at The Cove Palisades State Park.

Hiking nearby trails: The area features several hiking options with varied terrain. "There is a hike you can take along the shore of the reservoir - 4 miles out and back. Great geology as well," mentions a camper at Prineville Reservoir State Park. Another visitor recommends "Hiking trail to Jasper is about 2 miles and very easy to walk."

Water recreation: Beyond fishing, the reservoir supports multiple water activities. "The reservoir is really pretty and has great fishing. Some of the campsites have really nice shade, while others have stunning views over the lake," shares a reviewer. Swimming areas are designated at some campgrounds, with one visitor noting, "Large grassy areas, big roped off swimming hole."

What campers like

Dark sky viewing: The area is known for minimal light pollution. "This is also a dark sky park and if the moon is not bright the stars are amazing," notes a visitor at Prineville Reservoir State Park. The clear night skies make stargazing a popular activity among cabin campers.

Educational programs: Some parks offer learning opportunities for visitors. "The educational programs are outstanding! The amenities are well cared for and the surroundings are incredible!" reports a camper at Tumalo State Park. Programs often focus on local wildlife and geology.

Cabin amenities: Cabins vary in features and location advantages. "Our site was #7. Pull through, FHU, had a small brick patio area with picnic table and fireplace," shares a visitor at Bend / Sisters Garden RV Resort. Many cabin accommodations include outdoor spaces for enjoying the scenery.

What you should know

Reservation requirements: Advanced booking is essential, especially during peak seasons. "Reserve well in advance. Right next to the sisters rodeo and within view of the three sisters mountain," advises a camper. Most cabin facilities can be reserved through online systems.

Temperature fluctuations: The high desert climate means significant day-to-night temperature changes. "This time of year I sleep in my car and so having full bathroom facilities is nice," mentions a visitor describing spring conditions at Prineville Reservoir State Park.

GPS navigation challenges: Some cabin locations may be difficult to find with standard navigation. "Make sure to look at a map before headed out because GPS will take you on a dirt road adventure to your campsite," warns a visitor at Prineville Reservoir Resort.

Tips for camping with families

Swimming areas: Some campgrounds offer designated swimming zones. "The swim area is marked and dogs are not allowed in that area so you don't have to worry about dog messes where your kiddos are walking barefoot and swimming," explains a visitor. These areas provide safer water access for children.

Activity variety: Look for campgrounds with multiple recreation options. "The park even has an amphitheater and cabins with workshops for kids. Fishing at the lake too!" shares an enthusiastic reviewer. Some locations offer mini-golf, playgrounds, and educational programs.

Cabin selection: Consider the specific location when booking. "Some of the campsites have really nice shade, while others have stunning views over the lake. The cabins are super nice and reasonably priced too," advises a camper at Prineville Reservoir State Park.

Tips from RVers

Cabin alternatives: Many RV parks offer cabin rentals as alternatives to traditional camping. "They have vintage trailers for people to rent as well as a tiny house plus full hook up sites," explains a visitor at The Camp in Bend. These options provide similar comfort to cabin camping with varying amenities.

Propane services: Some locations offer convenient propane refill services. "One of my favorite perks was if you put out your propane tank in front of your spot, they'll pick it up, refill it and deliver back," notes a camper at Bend / Sisters Garden RV Resort. This service eliminates the need to transport tanks for refilling.

Bathroom facilities: Quality of shower and restroom facilities varies significantly between properties. "Heated floors, huge showers. Fantastic," reports an RV camper. These amenities can enhance the cabin camping experience, particularly during cooler seasons.
