When you stay at Thompson Reservoir Developed Campground, you’re not pitching a tent next to a dinky little pond. When it’s all filled up, the reservoir covers over 2,000 acres! That means this is the perfect spot for boating, swimming and fishing, so jump on in. The 20 non-reservable sites go fast, though, so come early in the week to claim a spot. And don’t forget to check the campground website for closures and alerts before you head out.

Crater Lake Resort

49mi from Thompson Reservoir Campground · 28 sites · Tents, RVs · Chiloquin, OR

Our property has been in business in one way or another for over 70 years. The stick built cabins are pre 1950's and no one really knows for sure how old they truly are. We are located on Fort Creek named after the creek that ran through Fort Klamath. Fort Creek is a beautiful 30' wide meandering creek that runs the length of the property north to south. We offer free use of our Old Town Canoes to paddle along it's extent and on up creek to a beaver damn. There is a fun hiking trail that runs over two bridges that span the creek, one covered and one floating. We also offer free catch and release fishing, there are Rainbow and Brown Trout in our waters. Fort Klamath is the birthplace and home of the US Army 1st Cavalry and our property is located on the the Forts Southeastern grounds.

If you plan to bring a pet, please add the pet fee which is listed under "Extras" during the booking process.

Myrtle's Place

48mi from Thompson Reservoir Campground · 2 sites · RVs, Lodging · Fort Klamath, OR

Beautiful property close to Crater Lake National Park. The Wood River runs through it. The 28 acres is mostly undeveloped, but there are a few houses and a restroom outbuilding. Bring your kids, bring your dogs; enjoy the beautiful setting. We have a few kayaks, or there are rental kayaks available nearby. NOTE: Please be aware that the mosquitos can be very bad here at times. Power has recently been going out more frequently due to the Pacific Power's "advanced safety settings". When the power is out the well pump is out, so there is no water. I am happy to provide buckets of river water for "flushing toilets" and pay for showers at the Klamoya Travel Center. I will not be giving refunds for a situation over which I have no control.
