About

Dog Lake Campground is located approximately 55 minutes west of Lakeview, Oregon. The campground is a serene destination for those seeking to fish and relax in a lakeside setting. It offers 15 campsites and four vault toilets. Each campsite has a picnic table and campfire ring. Dog Lake Boat Ramp and Day Use Area is across from the campground. Non-motorized boats and boats with electric motors are allowed at Dog Lake. There is a large parking area with adequate trailer turnaround, and one vault toilet. In addition to the boat ramp, you'll find a fishing dock. Dog Lake attracts a multitude of birds including pelicans, geese, ducks, and other waterfowl. Birdwatching and fishing are the main recreational pursuits at Dog Lake. Another bonus is its close proximity to Drews Reservoir and Drews Creek. Dog Lake's water level fluctuates depending on snow melt. Visitors need to pack plenty of water as there is no potable water onsite.
