Customer Reviews
Driving across Oregon to Utah. This campground was recommended as a good place to stop for the night. There are plenty of campsites midweek in the off season. Easy registration with no added fees. Clean and tidy. The wind does blow here. Lots of anglers looking like they haas success. Water is available!
Nice spot in between Butns and Bend. I was surmised to see a fish cleaning station. I never see them on the western side. It was nice and clean as well. I see overnight stay and bathrooms. No showers. Seems like a friendly little place to stop.
Nice BLM campground between Bend and Burns Oregon. First come first served $16 standard overnight fee. Good pull through graveled sites. Not much cleared areas for tents. Vault toilets and trash cans in two loops, plus camp sites on the shoreline. Most sites have picnic tables and fire rings. Small reservoir with nice boat ramp, plenty of parking and a fish cleaning shelter in Big Sagebrush grasslands near the highway.
We drove the 100 miles from Bend and after a stop at Riley for fuel we headed a few miles west to the reservoir. With just a few others on the lake we could pick our spot. Fishing was very good with trout ranging from 16 to 20 inches.
BLM land with a $16/night fee. No hookups. Sites are well spread apart and relatively flat. Lots of privacy. Picnic table with each site. Great views! Very clean. The website says pay with cash or check, but there's also a new credit card machine to pay. Very convenient. Great cell service (T-Mobile). I would stay here again.
