About Bull Prairie Campground (OR)

Bull Prairie Campground is a local gem; a beautiful, woodsy place to enjoy a vacation, host a family reunion or social event, and to enjoy multiple recreational pursuits. This moderate-sized campground is located adjacent to 28-acre Bull Prairie Lake, which is stocked annually with trout. An accessible, family-friendly paved trail along the lake is ideal for morning jogs, bicycle rides, picnicking, and shore or dockside fishing. The lake has a boat ramp, dock and trailer parking area, but only non-motorized boating is allowed. Nearby trails connect the campground and lake with the Morrow County OHV Park, 8 miles away. Note: ATVs are only allowed at the dump station and in the north part of the campground (sites 25-28).   While this campground offers potable water, there is no garbage service so please pack out all garbage and dispose of it at home. 

Number of accommodations: 28

The US Forest service host Jody and his wife go way above all possible expectations. There is not a bad site, everything is spotless and the lake is a must for sunsets or fishing.
Jody a Forest Service Ranger is an asset not just to the Forest Service but the country. He represents the very best in public service and represents the Forest Service as one of the crown jewels of our country.

I have been coming to Bull Prairie since I was a young child. It is so great that now, in my 40s, I can still meet up with my family from around the state and share the experience with my spouse and kiddo. The area is well-maintained, including boat ramps, walking paths, restrooms, and driving areas. Also, the camp hosts, Jodi and Heather, are kind people who lend to the great experience. Can't wait to come back!

Beautiful lake to walk around. Lots of wildlife so be sure to take binoculars to see the Osprey nests in the tree tops.

Primitive camping, no hookups of any kind. No cell service. Good for getting away from it all!
