Malheur National Forest's Emigrant campground sits in forested terrain near a creek and lake, operating under US Forest Service management from May through October. RVs are limited to 20 feet. The Malheur National Forest Falls Campground sits less than half a mile east, making this a reasonable base for campers who want proximity to multiple sites in the same corridor. Emigrant works best for tent campers and those with smaller rigs who are staging trips into the surrounding national forest.
Description
Often overlooked, Emigrant Creek is a rarely used campground shaded by huge ponderosa pines. This quiet 7 site campground's location along Emigrant Creek offers convenient trout fishing opportunities. In addition, the campground is a short drive from the top of Snow Mountain and the Snow Mountain Fire Lookout. The area around the fire lookout offers panoramic views of the surrounding region. The campground is an excellent place for visitors to enjoy a quiet get away.
