The 113,400-acre Sky Lakes Wilderness occupies the crest of the High Cascades, extending south from the boundary of Crater Lake National Park to Fourmile Lake.

Several species of trees including Shasta red fir, western white pine, mountain hemlock, lodgepole pine, Engelmann spruce and whitebark pine are found throughout the area. The forest's understory is dominated by species of huckleberry, as well as manzanita, snowbrush, and heather.

Willow Prairie Horse Camp is nestled in tall timber at an elevation of 4,400 feet just southwest of Mt. Mc Loughlin, near a beautiful meadow. The camp was converted to a horse camp in 1990 with the addition of 19 miles of interconnecting horseback riding trails. The renovation was made possible through a partnership between the Forest Service and the Coalition of Equestrian Clubs, which provided much of the labor for this wonderful facility.
Willow Prairie Horse Camp offers equestrian access to a wide variety of trails. Rugged peaks, sparkling lakes and forested areas provide the backdrop for many of these rides.

The unique character of the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest is composed of two distinct geological provinces: the Cascade Range and the Siskiyou Mountains. The Cascade Range is dominated by snow-capped volcanic peaks such as 9,495' Mt. Mc Loughlin within the Sky Lakes Wilderness. The Siskiyou area embodies world-class wild rivers, remarkable fisheries and the most complex and treasured plant communities in the Pacific Northwest. Adjacent to the camp is a wetland area featuring beaver dams and several large ponds where wildlife abounds. Sandhill cranes, Canada geese, ducks, elk, deer and many others frequent the area.

Visitors enjoy fishing, boating, canoeing and swimming. A small resort on the lake offers motor boat and canoe rentals.

Perfect for a weeknight stop when on the road, bathrooms were clean enough. Quiet on a summer weeknight. Beautiful forest.
Legend
No it is not perfect. It is close to Hwy 5 so a lot of road noise. But most in this area are. Sites are tight like most KOAs. We chose an end spot and did alright. Plus it was quiet part of year. Many year around residents but was not cluttered. Also sort of kept the short term rentals separate. Nice country location. Good green space to walk dogs. Did not get harassed for walking dogs off leash. We r responsible pet owners. Great laundry room. A little expensive for laundry. Pool table and Pac-Man was used by families. Very clean facilities and flexible manager on when we chose to leave.
Scout
Great spot for families. There are plenty of things to do from fishing, swimming, and even renting a "peddle" boat for a leg workout while taking your trip around the lake.
Scout
I love this place, but according to Rec.gov it will be closed for the 2023 season for upgrades
Traveler
This a lovely forest campground with good spacing between sites. Most sites are right on the river providing a very serene forest feel. A very nice hiking trail takes off from the far end of the campground toward Union creek and runs along the river.
GuideCampground was clean. Bathrooms could be updated. Sites were small.
TravelerStayed for 1 night en route south on I-5. Easy to book. Nice little camp store. Clean showers add bath. Didn’t use other amenities.
ScoutPull thru sites are short my 35 footer and car just fit. Multiple sites car were sticking in to the road making it a little close pulling out in the morning.
TravelerCampground is very crowded (seems like quite a few long term) and our pull thru site barely fit our 25ft trailer and truck. Okay for a place to sleep, and dump.
ScoutLarge RV spaces.Nice staff.
TravelerWe spent a weekend at Lake Selmac camping in our RV with our four kiddos. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. The new Owners of the Marina were wonderful as well. The campsites were all so beautiful with all the amenities one may want. You really felt removed from the world while there BUT not to far from a grocery store that has all you need. Boat rentals are cheap and very easy to access. I highly recommend this place!
TravelerThe owners are great. Turns out her parents owned this and she now got it from the people who bought from her parents. They have gone beyond with the tee pees fishing hate to leave.
ScoutIncredible location in the Cascade Mountains,( northern corner of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument). The campgrounds were well maintained and spaced so that they provided plenty of privacy from neighboring sites. Exception hiking, great wildlife sighting.
Another plus is that you are just 20 miles away from Ashland, easy drive allows one to take in a play at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival , return to your campsite and marvel at the star lit night sky.
ScoutGreat bike trails. Plenty of showers and restrooms. Flat concrete for tent setup and bbq pit in each site with fresh water close to all sites.
LegendThis is a great campground, very beautiful, but very busy. Off highway 62 take the Natural Bridge turn off and follow the road to the campground. The sites are for the most part secluded from each other and most are along the Rogue River with a mix of sun and shade. All sites have picnic tables and fire pits. There are also multiple outhouses throughout the campground.
Keep in mind that though the sites near the water are awesome, there is a heavily used trail that runs right along the river so you will have multiple hikers walking near or through your amazing campsite. We had site 6 and though it appears to be the best site (large and nearly fully enclosed) it's not because the trail runs at the edge of the spot and you will have loud hikers strolling right through your space.
The hiking nearby is great. There is a loop hike which takes you to the Natural Bridge area which is really cool. There is also a hike to the Rogue Gorge that takes you through another campground further up. On top of the busy trail along the campsites there is also areas where people hang out to swim or fish so you can hear people nearly all day long. It was nice the first day and night during the week but over the weekend it got a bit ridiculous and we left. There are large garbage cans for trash service but no water and no recycling. There is also no cell service from ATT, Verizon and TMobile.
Off season this place would be great but we strongly suggest not going on a weekend or busy season unless you like people noise constantly all day.
GuideMy wife and I stopped here after visiting Crater Lake. This campground is right on the Rogue river and is absolutely gorgeous. The sites are well maintained, and there are toilets. The “Natural Bridge” is a short walk away and is really cool. Lots of informative signs along the path to describe what you are seeing.
GuideThis NFS campground is located on the Rogue River. Sites are very dispersed and full of Redwoods with river at your back. Doesn’t get much better than this for tent camping.
GuideNice staff, nice bathrooms, clean park. We're in the area for work and this is a nice place to stay.
TravelerThis is one of our favorite go-to places, but be prepared there are no reservations! It’s a small area with 17 sites right on a lazy part of the Rogue. Beautiful hiking and site seeing. 10/10 recommend
Traveler
Nice area located on a Resevoir. Potable water available. Outhouse. No hookups and no phone service.
GuideI picked a spot right on the lake where I chose a comfy log to sit and enjoy a book. There is lots of wildlife around the lake; dusk coaxed several deer out to the water, lots of birds throughout the day, and the sound of frogs at night.
This campground has bathrooms and showers, though the bathrooms weren’t the cleanest for such a well-developed campground. Fire rings are available, but bring firewood with you. There’s plenty of wood laying around to burn, but I’m not sure what the campground’s policy is for foraging.
The lake was too low to use the boat ramps and warnings of leaches and skin parasites made the water itself uninviting, but the campground itself was great and there’s plenty of options for hiking nearby.
Oh yeah, the road up the mountain coming from I-5 was made of narrow switchbacks straight up along the side of a cliff. I white-knuckled it the whole way in my little car... not for the faint of heart. The views were breathtaking though.
TravelerSome sites here are very private feeling because you park the car up top and walk down (not far at all) to the tent that sits close to the lake.
Toilets but no showers.
TravelerPeaceful. Love watching the water birds. Lots of trees. Even nice in the winter. Clean bathrooms and good hiking.
GuideWe were down in Southern Oregon for the Caves.
We stayed in the Heron loop which was the smallest and most primitive, It was wonderful and we had the whole south of the lake to ourselves. Firewood here is not bundled and since it was off season we got a huge amount for$5. The hosts were terrific. This was a wonderful quiet stay.
Will always be back.
This year it was pretty spendy for a tent site $24
GuideLocated right next to a natural bridge, where the water goes under the floor in a lava tube.
