The best pets off leash camping near Oakridge

·

Surrounded by the verdant Willamette National Forest in the foothills of the Cascade Range, Oakridge has long been popular with outdoorsy types looking to get back into nature, especially mountain biking aficionados. Originally a railroad logging town, this small community now provides goods and services for visitors to the surrounding woodlands, and is a great place to stop by to stock up on groceries and supplies before heading out on a camping trip. There are also a couple of motels right in town, as well as restaurants representing cuisine from around the world, pubs, and even a disc golf course.

The best pets off leash camping near Oakridge guide

Where to go

The Lakes and Reservoirs of Lane County

Oakridge is near plenty of fantastic spots for fishing and boating, including Elijah Bristow State Park, Dexter Lake, Fall Creek Reservoir, and Lookout Point Lake, all within a 30- to 45-minute drive of Oakridge. Just south of town, Hills Creek Lake offers around 44 miles of shoreline and three boat ramps.

Eugene and Around

Less than an hour's drive from Oakridge, Eugene—Oregon's second-largest city—offers a well-rounded mix of cultural centers, natural areas, restaurants, and breweries. It’s also the gateway for the southernmost part of Oregon’s celebrated Willamette Valley wine country.

On the McKenzie River

A tributary of the Willamette River, the McKenzie River is popular for fishing, boating, and rafting. The surrounding region is also home to some of Oregon's finest hot springs, including Terwilliger Hot Springs and Belknap Hot Springs.

When to go

Like elsewhere in western Oregon, the weather in Oakridge is at its most pleasant in the summer months, when temperatures tend to be warm (with highs in the 70s or low 80s) and the chance of rain is at its lowest. If you're in the area for camping and want good weather without the summer vacation crowds, consider visiting in September, after Labor Day.
