Thief Valley Reservoir- directions

We've never camped here, mainly because we live nearby.  Yes, it is windy here, great for windsurfers.  

The directions offered are a little off.  From North Powder Hwy 237, you will turn right on Government Gulch Road.  When you get to the RR crossing, turn right, cross the tracks onto Telocaset Lane.  

You can get there from the other side too.  Stop at Pondosa Store for a little local history and some snacks.  From Hwy 203 near Medical Springs, you go West on Telocaset Lane to Thief Valley Reservoir.

Windy!

A free campsite next to a locally popular rainbow trout fishery. Can be beautiful in the spring, but expect wind. Lake is right next to a wind farm, and you will get blown off the water by noon most days. Vault toilet but no running water.
