    Prospect OHV Dispersed Camping

    Perfect place for OHV riding

    We absolutely loved camping here. During our off season stay it was fun and with all the ATV trails it was our favorite place to camp.

    Our neighbor campers decided they could ride the trails without helmets and found out the hard way that is is a no no. They were brought back to the camp without their bikes and in the back of a National Forest Service Enforcement vehicle. After being spoken to about the importance of following the rules of the trails, they were left at camp and had to find their own way back to their motorcycles.

    Fortunately we did not have the same experience. It can get very dusty so just be prepared for that. The trails are absolutely great and access to the Rogue River is just icing on the cake.

    It was so nice to have areas provided for unloading bikes and ATV's so folks could safely load and unload their toys.

    Boulder Flat Campground

    Between river and highway

    All sites by river. Small but spacious. Deep forest feel. Minimal highway noise. Got a site mid afternoon on a Saturday in mid September. Sites were pretty level.

    COE Dorena Reservoir Schwarz Campground

    Tree covered

    Close to Cottage Grove, COE spot accepted the Passport for half priced camping. 

    The campground roads can be tight if you have a big rig so be careful. Because there is no power in the sites people were running generators for hours, even the tent campers.

    Large groups were utilizing the group areas when we stayed, lots of children having fun. 

    It would not be a destination place but okay for an overnight stay. 

    Alchol ban in the park but based on the trash bins it was not enforced.

    Website says open, but gates closed

    I camped here last year before the Ride the Rim bike ride and it was great. You cannot reserve sites this time of year - it is only first come first served. I planned on doing the the same thing this year and when I drive up on Friday September 13 the website still said “open” but when I got there the gates were closed. There was a sign that said “sorry for the inconvenience”. Luckily Thielspn View campground was open on the west side of Diamond lake.

    Pretty quiet, nice primative stop

    Vault toilets had no toilet paper, but otherwise a really beautiful small spot. Would stay there again

    Easy off the main road stop

    Quiet camping area off 138. You come up to what looks like a county shop, but keep going to the left, and you're here. A handful of sites. We were easily able to park out jeep a ways in.

    Rogue Elk County Park

    Last minute stop

    Self check in campground with reservable sites, pick an unreserved and check in at entrance kiosk. Road is rough but site blacktop are somewhat level but rough old blacktop. Some sites are too close to the road and some nice ones by the river. No showers were available due to water shortages. Bathrooms are a little rundown.

    Mazama Village Campground — Crater Lake National Park

    Closest campground to Crater Lake National Park

    Mazama Campground offers a serene retreat nestled within Crater Lake National Park, surrounded by a lush forest that provides privacy and tranquility. The reservation process requires you to provide your dates and size of RV and are assigned a site when you arrive. As I walked around it appeared pull-through sites were for RVs and trailers, and back-in sites that were assigned to tent or car campers. The pull through sites were long, some are asphalt and others dirt. Our site D5 was asphalt and level. The amenities, including clean bathrooms, accessible water spigots, and regular trash collection, contribute to a comfortable stay. The general store is a convenient spot for registration, fuel, and showers, it's also the starting point for exploring the breathtaking Crater Lake via tour bus or personal vehicle. Even though a forest fire limited visibility of the lake, Mazama Campground remains a memorable destination for its natural beauty and well-maintained facilities.

    Union Creek Campground - Rogue River - TEMPORARILY CLOSED

    Semi-private sites close to Crater Lake

    The campground is in the beautiful forest a short drive from Crater Lake NP. We had a site along the Rogue river, a short distance from a pebble beach that the kids loved exploring. The campground was busy and several groups were quite boisterous. The sites were semi private with trees in between, but water spouts were few and far between. The vault toilets weren’t very clean. The Union Creek resort stores were just outside the entrance, so it was easy to stay stocked on ice and grab an ice cream cone while we were at it.

    Walt Haring Sno-Park & Campground

    Great spot for a quick overnight in the summer

    nearly had the entire place to myself minus a couple travel trailers, but there’s enough room to spread out to where no one even notices each other. Plenty of trail to hike in the summer and great place for dogs to walk. Very quiet and hard to realize you’re so close to the main highway. Dump station is present on site. Definitely will stay here again.

    Mazama Village Campground — Crater Lake National Park

    Poor management/mediocre cabin

    The Cabin is perfectly fine, but don’t expect any frills. No cell service or WiFi. No tv. No fridge. The water is hot. Note that this“cabin” is actually four different hotel rooms that all walls. You are not in a quaint cabin in the woods. You are in a bare bones hotel room with thin walls and no amenities. There is a picnic table outside but no real lounge area despite being in the middle of a gorgeous national park. 

    I ended up in this cabin because the system that manages the reservations screwed up. I booked and RV site 6 months ago and was called two weeks before and told that they overbooked. The only way to accommodate me was to have me stay in one site for one night and then move to a different site for 8 nights. However the 8 night site turned out to be too short for my RV when I showed up there(I was always up front about the length of my rig). I was told the only thing open for the length of my stay was a cabin and were told to park the RV in the cabin parking lot and stay in the cabin. 

    Things that occurred over the course of 9 days:

    Housekeeping knocking on my door at 730am on a Saturday provide service while I was asleep. They typically knocked on my door 2-3 times per day to ask when I was leaving.

    running out of toilet paper and having to walk 3/4 mile to the camp store to get more(there is no phone in the room and no service)

    the power going out

    and my favorite, getting home from dinner at 10pm to find that our keys had been deactivated because“they thought we were leaving that day” and having to drive up to the crater rim(30 min round trip) to get new keys because the camp store closes at 9pm 

    The campground advertised laundry but the laundry is broken with no timeline to fix. 

    All in all, I just wanted what I paid for, a campsite with electric that fit my RV. Not a weird parking lot spot and a half-baked hotel room. 

    Unfortunately this campground is the only game in town. Good luck with your visit to crater lake.

    Millsite Forest Dispersed Camping

    Open, empty, very quiet

    This was a lovely place to camp for the night. There were probably 10-15 campsites, and I was the only one there when I showed up. Campsites have picnic tables and fire pits and there is a pit toilet. Many trees which provide shade. Some mosquitos but not too bad. Very easy to find with the directions and it was also on GAIA GPS.

    Diamond Lake RV Park

    Good creater lake location

    Full service RV Park in the national Forest 40 minutes from Crater lake rim. Large Park in the woods. Visited in late July and it was only half full. For the weekday pretty quiet and peaceful. Some deferred maintenance like roadways crumbling in spots but all the basics were met. Great little pizza restaurant on the lakes edge is just walking distance.

    Great Views

    Came here not really knowing what to expect and we were surprised with what we got. Road was was easy to get up, however 4x4 is definitely needed for the spots up on the rocks. Lovely view where we were! Lots of little camp fires scattered around the area .

    Big Pines RV Park

    Our favorite within a 50 mile radius!

    We constantly sleuth campgrounds and map sites that will fit our 30 footer. We scoped out over two dozen CGs. We love the spacing of the sites. All are full hookups. We loved their showers and restroom facilities. Amazing water pressure! Nice shade, too.

    Casey's Riverside RV resort

    Wow!

    Really awesome facility. Every site is big-rig friendly and almost perfectly level. Minimum work getting setup. The river is just feet away. Dog friendly. We especially liked the trains that occasionally tooted and roared down the opposite side on the river canyon.

    Skookum Creek Campground

    Spooky!

    So, we followed a young family in a Jeep Cherokee pulling an audacious 12 foot camping trailer, circa 1972. Yes,it was52 years old. When we all arrived at the end of the 3 mile dirt road I was immediately attacked by mosquitoes. They were not after anyone else, so I was doing some good keeping the little monsters off of the others. We told the family that “skookum “ was the Indian name for Bigfoot, and that this was prime country for a sighting.
    There was a marvelous little wooden bridge there. A hiking trail heading deep into the bush. Mostly set up for tent camping. A vault toilet. A big flat graveled parking area where perhaps a dozen RVs could set up.

    There is no such place as Douglas, OR

    Hamaker Campground has been abandoned for nearly 10 years and is now "free dispersed camping" without any improvements. There are no bathrooms.  There is no host.  ODFW is not present here.  To call it Douglas, OR is untrue!

    Fantastic RV Resort

    Well kept RV resort. Level concrete pads, good wifi, nice pool. Not a rustic campground so may not be a good match for those wanting to roast a marshmallow. Recommended!

    Peaceful Camping Near Crater Lake National Park

    This campground is an excellent choice for an overnight stay when visiting Crater Lake National Park. The sites offer flat ground, making it easy to set up a tent. Although it is close to the road, it is secluded enough to provide a peaceful night's sleep. Be aware that during our visit, we encountered many hungry and persistent mosquitoes, so I highly recommend bringing insect repellent and other mosquito-prevention measures.

    The tent sites can be found by following an unpaved road downhill from the large parking lot. There are two basic restrooms located at the entrance, but there is no potable water available, so be sure to bring your own. If you don't use the entry restrooms, please practice Leave No Trace principles to keep the area clean and natural. The proximity to Crater Lake allows for convenient early morning starts to explore the park. Overall, it's a great spot for both solo travelers and families looking for a comfortable camping experience.
