This place was great get away. It's close to lava lake with in walking distance and little lava lake. It has restrooms which where clean. Also there is water there too. You just need to bring something to put it in. We used a long hose to fill up our travel trailer, but you could pull up next to one and fill tank before parking in your site. The host was really nice people and great to talk too.
Over all a great place to setup and go see other lakes and mountains. Will be going again.

Beautiful lake with incredible views of Mount Bachelor, South Sister and Broken Top.
Interior campsites are way too close together.

2022 is a good year for Lava Lake. Lake is beautiful and off season clearing of campsites and grounds was very nice. Camp Host is keeping vault toilets and areas in top shape.
Expect mosquitos because of late season snow and spring rain.
This is good campground.

Every year this campground gets less user friendly. The water was not turned on until late and the fish cleaning station was never opened this year. The camp hosts are friendly and helpful, but whoever makes the decisions about services to the campground needs to up their game.
