Beautiful, busy, and loud
Beautiful location, with the lake nestled in the trees. We enjoyed the hike around the lake, and the beautiful night sky. Unfortunately it is a very popular location, so if you’re looking for solitude you won’t find it here. Each campsite was full, and the parking lot was overflowing with day visitors (Friday and Saturday).
The Most Camped in Eastern Oregon
Jubilee lake is a beautiful densely forested mountain top man made lake in the Blue Mountains in Eastern Oregon. The lake water is semi murky in the muddy areas but clear and beautiful in the pebble beach areas. This body of water makes for a beautiful backdrop that glistens in the sun.
There are 53 designated campground spots with sporadic dispersed camping all over the road on the way in. The sites are non-reservable. The campground is semi primitive with some sites having basic water hookups, there are flushable and pit toilets both available.
The lake is chilly but swimmable from July - September. The camping spots are pretty spaced out and private. Some are very landscaped and fun to be in such as the dual level spots. Some spots are lake front, but most lake front is wild and picnic/day use.
This is a popular location for canoeing, kayaking and paddle boarding. There is a 2.8 mile trail circling the lake with breathtaking views all along. A rope swing into the water awaits the daring, am easy 20+ ft arc with a variable drop.
2 weeks is the maximum stay, rvs and tents are both allowed inside, most spots can easily take a 32 ft trailer. Remember this is a very popular destination, so be on the look out for the spots on the way in, just in case it is full.
Private Campsites. Beautiful Views.
This may have been due to us camping in mid September but mosquitos were not an issue at all on our visit.
We had a small quiet campsite that despite not being far from the next site over was very private.
It was a very short walk from our campsite to a bathroom. But as I said earlier, due to the privacy from the trees you could easily pee in the forest without raising eyebrows.
In the morning it was a very short walk down to the lake. The lake is beautiful and clear. Perfect for fishing, kayaking, and even swimming if you felt so inclined.
I would definitely go back and recommend it to a friend.
