Best Glamping near Sisters, OR

South Shore Suttle Lake and Link Creek campgrounds house exceptional glamping experiences on the shores of Suttle Lake, just minutes from Sisters. Both locations feature yurts and glamping accommodations nestled among evergreens with stunning views of surrounding mountains. At South Shore, spacious waterfront sites provide direct lake access for swimming and paddling, while Link Creek offers a more intimate setting on the west end of the lake. These glamping options include amenities like picnic tables, fire rings, and access to toilet facilities, though guests should note there are no showers at South Shore. "Loved this spot, it's a little gem next to Sisters. There are some incredible sites available right on the water. Great for paddle boarding and kayaking. Super quiet/large site areas," shared one visitor about South Shore Suttle Lake.

The 3-mile trail circling Suttle Lake connects these glamping destinations and provides excellent opportunities for morning walks or bike rides through scenic forest terrain. Guests can rent canoes and kayaks at the nearby Suttle Lake Lodge, where live music events occasionally take place in the evening. Both locations operate seasonally, with South Shore available from May to September and Link Creek open from late April through late November. Winter weather conditions affect accessibility. A recent visitor noted, "Round Lake ended up being a great kayak spot with some interesting features in the water and a somewhat interesting shoreline to explore. Enjoyed watching a pair of Bald Eagles as they swooped fish out of the lake and carried them away." The proximity to Sisters (about 30 minutes) makes these glamping options perfect for those wanting to explore central Oregon while returning to comfortable lakeside accommodations.

    Whitcomb Creek County Park

    Quiet even on a busy holiday weekend

    Stayed in Yurt #2 in the Yurt village on Fathers Day weekend. There was also a fishing tournament this weekend, so the park was completely full. The Yurt Village stayed very quite. Most noise was the Trucks/Boat coming and leaving the boat ramp which is about 400yds away. 

    Yurt #2 & 3 are deluxe yurts. All this means is you get a larger deck and propane firepit. To use the firepit you need to bring your own propane, large 20lb style. The Yurts have solar lights inside and out, not sure how long they run, but they lasted us a weekend with conservative use. There is 2 pit style bathrooms in the yurt village. Bathrooms are located at the parking lot.

    The yurt village is a ways from the RV/Tent sites. Not a quick or easy walk. 

    Parking at the yurt village is a little walk from #2 and #3. Best to bring a wagon or such to help transport. Its about 100yd walk each way. 

    There are 3 beds, one full side bottom with a twin bunk on top and one full size futon. There is a dining table and 4 chairs. There is no running water, bring your own water. I saw a fountain near the parking lot, but did not test it. 

    While it says no pets, one other yurt had two well behaved dogs. The park knew and didnt stop them, so make your own decision with your pets but dont ruin it for others please.

    Weather was pretty good for us. No mosquitoes, though lots of nats but able to sit outside all day without being bothered too much.

    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.

    Tumalo State Park Campground

    Convenient camping stop just 4 miles off the highway.

    Tumalo State Park gets only 3 stars from me because it was hot and crowded. Since its only 4 miles North of popular Bend, Oregon, its a convenient stop... but what I consider "pit stop camping," on my way to quieter destinations. They have good campground amenities for this: flush toilets, running water, showers. Its a pretty location, near many fun outdoor activities near and in Bend, but the sites were too crowded together for my taste. Note that, as in most of Oregon in high summer, open flames and camp fires are prohibited. It is a Red Flag zone, meaning there is a high danger of wildfires. In fact, as of last week (late July, 2018) you could see the smoke from several fires in the surrounding forests.

    Devils Lake Campground - Deschutes National Forest

    Not your beach lame

    There are two Devil’s lake campground. This one in particular is along the subalpine Devil’s Lake of central Oregon (NOT the beach) - sorry, no yurts, cabins, or marketplaces here.

    It’s pretty amazing, though, as long as you plan for it! There are no drive-up sites, they’re all walk-ins. This is the access point for local trails like the PCT and South Sister summit trail.

    Just a day at the lake is great though! I’ve spent a lot of time scrambling around this area and camping at Devil’s lake. Definitely worth it for a slightly more “rustic” adventure!

    Tumalo State Park Campground

    Mainly RVs

    Showers, bathrooms, and running water are available. A tent site is $21/night with 1 car allowed. Additional cars are $7/night. There aren't any tent sites secluded from yurts and RVs, so you will be hearing generators run, though people did shut them off at 10. IMO, it's expensive for a tent site in a spot where you're surrounded by glampers.

    Scott Lake Campground

    Beautiful camping, easy access to gorgeous hiking and just primitive enough

    This campsite is the perfect place if you enjoy secluded tent camping in a primitive style but still want the comforts of a fire pit, picnic table and a toilet. The scenery is hard to match. Views of Three Sisters makes for the most breathtaking sunrise and hiking around the lake is beautiful. There is also hiking up to Tenas Lakes or Scott Mountain that makes for a good day trek. It was serene, quiet, picturesque, clean, and free! We paid $5 to park and the walk to our cite was not bad. Get there early to get the best spot; first come first serve.

    Olallie Lake Resort

    Correction

    There are a couple differences between the Olallie Lake Resort and its facilities vs The Olallie Lake Guard Station Cabin. Although near to each other on the lake, and both managed by the  resort staff, the Guard Station Cabin is owed by the Forest Service. They do not allow pets in the cabin or in your car when you rent it. 

    The resort rents a number of rustic cabins themselves, along with two yurts, and operates a number of nearby campgrounds, the store, and the boat rentals.

    The Guard Station Cabin must be rented from Recreation.gov , and has much less basic facilities, kitchen with hot & cold running water.  Propane powered stove/oven,  refrigerator , and built in lights.  Pit toilet nearby,

    I believe the other reviews refer to the resort's cabins.

    Ochoco Lake County Park

    Cute small campground - Dry Camping

    Cute small campground on a little hill overlooking a lake.  Tent sites by the lake's edge. 
    Very Clean bathrooms with code for campers. Pits for public areas. 
    Since there are no RV services be prepared to hear some generators running occasionally.  Quiet hours 10PM-7AM.  Water is available but may not be close enough for a hose to your RV.  Most sites have good Starlink view of skies.

    Pelton Park Campground

    Family campground on a fishing lake with amenities

    Generations of campers have stayed here, and if you have little ones, no doubt they'll want to continue the tradition. The park has experienced many improvements since the landslide transformed and closed it many years ago. Available to rent now are yomes (yurt domes) with bunkbeds and inexpensive lake view cabins with AC and heat. A swimming hole, playground and amphitheatre delight little campers, and a store/restaurant/rental business delight adults who run out of ice, beer, fishing tackle, or other necessities. Kayaks, paddle boards and other water sport equipment is available for rent. The lake is long and deep with Kokanee, Rainbow Trout and Bull Trout, but you'll need to make sure you purchase an Indian permit (available at the store) if you want to fish for them. Take a trolling boat up the narrows to the back of Round Butte Dam in the morning and rev up the engine for a mile of skiing area near Pelton Dam to cool off in the afternoon. This is a PGE park with on-site camp hosts and regular visits from the local law enforcement. You'll feel safe camping here solo or with your children. Quiet time is politely enforced. There is a community kitchen available for cooking or washing dishes and clean flush toilets and shower facilities are on site. Electrical hookups abound, even if you are tenting, you can bring an extension cord to recharge, light, or cool off your campsite.
