"Philip's lake is a delightful small Lake in the hills near Baker City Oregon and Sumpter Oregon."
"Baker city was just about 20 minutes away along with the old gold mining town of Sumpter about 10 minutes away"
"Close to Sumpter if you forgot something, or there is always some street activity or flea market happening."
"The serenity and beauty of the surroundings are unparalleled, providing a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of the outside world."
"There looks to be 4 sites in the trees, but if you keep driving down it’ll take you towards the lake, which is where I camped. Wide open, great sunset views!"
"I 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."
"We stayed at The Gold Rush RV park in Sumpter, OR for one week. We absolutely loved our stay. The park was clean, and the restrooms/laundry room was spotless."
"The drive in is gorgeous and the spots are nice with plenty of distance between."
"Beautiful spot near Phillips Lake. Unfortunately this spot is not on the waters edge at the moment since lake levels are low, but it is still beautiful none-the-less. Lots of wildlife."
"Dog Friendly with a 14 acres off-leash dog park! Washrooms were small but very clean. Even though it is 1 minute off the highway it was fairly quiet."
"Good stop great facility good dog park 30amp/water…easy on off the freeway. Great town/ location…we’ll worth the stop"

Sites are not level."
"Parked at the very end nearest the lake and had spectacular views of the surrounding valley and mountains."

"Touring through Oregon with my buddy on motorcycles, we had finished a great day of riding. Wanting to use his Oregon State Park benefits, we pulled into this spot."
"We camped right next to lake. We didn’t have any neighbors which was amazing, many spots available. Enjoyed a beautiful sunset while sitting around campfires."
$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."
"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."
"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)."

TravelerWe stayed here just overnight. We used the showers and laundry --both were very clean. Courteous, helpful staff. It looked like about half of the tenants are permanent.
The dog park on the back forty was seriously about 40 acres.

RangerJust arrived today. I’ll update after our full stay. Come here to explore Sumpter and the mines. Dispersed but tables and fire rings. Some pull throughs. No hookups or trash service. Beautiful setting. 3 bars AT&T.
Sites are not level. Large rigs will be fine, ours is 30’ TT
After stay review. Had a great time. Cranes were hanging at the lake, two Bald Eagles were close by. Great location with a lot to explore.
GuideWe chose Dixie because it was a little closer to civilization than Yellow Pine, Wetmore & Oregon campgrounds further east on Hwy 26. There is no host, it’s at a higher elevation and it is a little off the highway. The loop is kind of on two levels so some spaces are well spaced out. Vault toilets distributed around the loop. The one we used was clean and supplied. There were only 2-3 other sites occupied and no one near us when we stayed. No reservations. We chose a site that sat a bit downhill from where our car was parked but was a really lovely spot. We didn’t mind hauling our stuff down. The wind picked up the first afternoon we were there and we actually saw a tree fall in the distance which was a little disconcerting. Just be aware of where you place your tent and the trees around you. Absolutely beautiful area with wild strawberries and blueberries and salmon berries, currants and more. Loved the peace and tranquillity of this campground but close enough to Prairie City which is where we got firewood (from Mountain View mini mart, no wood at Huffman’s Market & no wood at Austin House market at the top of the pass). We visited the little Sumpter Railroad interpretive site and Bates State Park both great for walking around with kids. Would definitely come back and do more hiking in the Blue Mountains.
