Big Lake Beach Campsite

100% (5)
RV/tent site · Sleeps 206 · Vehicles under 50 ft
Secluded private lake campsite in the high desert grasslands of North Central Oregon with mountain views, huge skies and plenty of space to roam. Guests can walk around the lake, explore the rest of the property surrounding it, and bring your own paddle boards or canoes to use on the lake. Fishing on the lake is not allowed without a reservation. If you are interested in fly fishing on one of our private lakes check with us for rates. All fishing is strictly barbless hook catch and release fly fishing only, and we do not allow any fishing at all in the summer months as the warm water temperatures make it unsafe for the fish to be released. We are very strict with these practices in order to maintain a healthy fishery.
