Summary
Driftwood Campground offers beautiful lakeside views and spacious, private campsites, making it an appealing destination for camping, hiking, and fishing.

A little worried that our reservation was not posted at our site. Fortunately our friend was early and camping next to us and cleared out some folks taking over the spot. No camp host and no TP made for a rough start to our week. Eventually the camp host’s presence was visible toward the end of the week. We have had lawlessness experiences up at this lake in the past and we’re glad to see some structure. Beautiful week and was pleased at the end.

*Beware the Three Creeks Bandits*
We love it up there but there have been reports of theft lately and our Naish inflatable paddleboard was stolen right out in front of our site on 9/7/23 . Just hoping others will read this and keep their stuff close and tidy, and hopefully with fewer temptations the scum will go away.

It is very close to my house. I’m in Sisters. It’s my favorite campground in this area. Campground is clean and well maintained. New comers should know it is a dry campground except for the lake.

This spot had an amazing view of the lake and it’s surroundings! We did notice that this campsite had less shade coverage than the other sites along the lake. It was nice that the restroom was near by walking but not too close.
Important things to pack would be extra bug repellent and extra local wood.

Seen a bald Eagle, Osprey, Owl, bats, squirrels, and a potato bug. Windy so be careful with the campfire. Wait until the sun goes down before lighting a fire. There is brush and vegetation near the ring in some of the camps. The reserved spots had nobody. We had the camp to ourselves. Stars were perfect and so were the s’mores.

The campsites on that side of the lake are very steep and the whole hillside where you park was sliding away and had big potholes in it. Other than that, spacious campsites, albeit in a steep hill. Nice hike to little three creek lake. Fishing was good.

General
- This is a no water facility so campers will need to bring their own supply.
- This campground is only suitable for tent camping since we cannot accommodate RVs or trailers.
- Prevent the spread of invasive species by inspecting and cleaning packs, equipment and tires before using lake or trails.
- Please Note: One vehicle per single site. Most sites can accommodate 1 extra vehicle that is not included with the reservation fee. Extra vehicle will be charged a per night fee and collected at the campground.
- Fire Restrictions: Fire restrictions may be imposed at any time due to hot, dry weather conditions, at which time campfires and charcoal fires may not be allowed.
- During your time in Central Oregon, you can find wildfire, prescribed fire and smoke information at centraloregonfire.org
- Reserved Sites will be held until the day following your arrival date. Sites must be occupied by the checkout time of that following day to hold a reservation or the site will be forfeited and released to other guests. Once your reservation start date has begun, neither the Recreation.gov Contact Center nor the campground manager will be able to modify your reservation.
- Refunds: Refund requests made through www.recreation.gov will be charged a $10 processing fee. This fee is retained by the reservation service contractor along with the non-refundable reservation fee. All requests for the return of the non-refundable reservation fee and the cancellation fee will be declined by the campground concessionaire as they did not receive these fees (these are the fees retained by the reservation contractor, a different entity).
- Don't Move Firewood: Please protect Pacific Northwest forests by preventing the spread of invasive species. Firewood can carry insects and diseases that can threaten the health of our western forests. You can make a difference by obtaining and burning your firewood near your camping destination. Visit Dontmovefirewood.org for further information.

- Camping or otherwise occupying a single location (including leaving camping equipment and/or related supplies) for a period longer than 14 consecutive calendar days is prohibited. ‘Location’ means the occupied area, the occupied campsite, and the National Forest System lands in the immediate vicinity thereof. Camping or occupying any location on all National Forest lands for more than 28 calendar days total during a calendar year is prohibited.
