WE ARE COMPLETELY BOOKED FOR OUR 2022 SEASON. PLEASE CONTACT US TO DISCUSS DATES FOR 2023. WE BOOK UP VERY FAR IN ADVANCE. Missing peace and quiet? Wishing for space to relax and renew? Here is your chance! Off the grid, atop a 40-acre meadow on 160 acres of private land. Surrounded by the Umpqua National Forest in Douglas County, Oregon. Welcome to Summit Prairie! Hear the wind give voice to the trees at the edge of the meadow. Listen to the birds calling in the valley below. Let the peace you feel here…. stay with you. Built in 2009, the lookout tower is modeled after Fire Lookout Towers built by the US Forest Service in the early 1900's. However, it's enhanced with modern essentials: a full kitchen featuring hot and cold running water, propane stove, refrigerator, heater and lamps, exterior shower with windows all around to let in summer breezes and breath-taking views. And while simply chilling at Summit Prairie is oh-so-fine, think of this place also as a launch point for day trips to Crater Lake (2 hours), or Ashland, site of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival (1.5 hours), or historic Jacksonville, site of the annual Brit Festival (1.5 hours), Rogue River Rafting (45 minutes), the South Umpqua Falls (45 minutes) or the Seven Feathers Casino in Canyonville (1 hour). Imagine! Kick back and relax, read a book, play a game (or three)… write in a journal, meditate… daydream in the hammocks down the hill… soak your cares away and relax in a secluded wood-fired, spring-fed hot tub… Even dance under the moon or sing to the stars. Memories are made here. Come to Summit Prairie...

    Summit Prairie-Large Group Camping!
    Dabney & Alan are not only the best host, they are the best people. I had been stalking summit prairie for a few years and finally got my chance to book and it was everything I thought it would be & more. Dabney & Alan were always there when we had questions and had the best recommendations of activities in the area, they truly care that you have the best possible time while you are there. The look out itself was incredible and eclectic; showering every morning while overlooking the mountains was such a trip. & again, thank YOU Dabney & Alan- we cant wait to see you again in the future.

    Gorgeous location and simply stellar hospitality. Dabny and Alan have thought of everything. The tower view is stunning and the group camping is great with wooded spots, a fire ring, picnic tables and plenty of space. We had a wonderful time!

    Summit Prairie-Large Group Camping!
    We reserved the Summit Prairie group campsite from Alan and Dabney and were impressed from start to finish. Dabney made absolutely sure I had all of the information I needed, including extremely specific driving directions, a full site walkthrough upon arrival to acclimate to the facilities, making himself available for any questions leading up to our trip and during our stay, etc. The process was smooth and easy, the hosts generous and kindhearted, and the space....well the space was exquisite. 20 of us pitched tents out in the prairie, we rented equipment from Dabney that helped make our stay even more comfortable, and we were able to "hide" in the lookout during some wet weather we had. Rain and all, it was an unforgettable experience. Our group certainly wants to return to Summit Prairie again someday!! THANK YOU ALAN AND DABNEY for cultivating such a magical spot and sharing it with us.
