Fish Lake Resort

RV camp in southern Oregon surrounded by magical old-growth forests that have been untouched by man for generations. The majestic Mount McLaughlin’s reflection is apparent on Fish Lake’s clear, glassy surface. If one could soar overhead alongside a bald eagle or osprey, which are frequent visitors to the area, the reason for Fish Lake’s name would become apparent; it indeed resembles a fish, albeit an oddly shaped one.

Situated in deep woods, Fish Lake Resort RV campground has 45 sites, and guests are welcome to choose from either full or partial hookups or to opt-out entirely. There are restrooms with hot showers and laundry facilities. In addition to the general store, there is also an on-site diner called Tadpole Cafe that specializes in delicious burgers. Situated on the shores of Fish Lake, it should be no surprise that Fish Lake Resort also offers boat rentals to their guests. The selection includes motorboats, rowboats, pontoons, canoes, and kayaks. Fishing, too, is an activity enjoyed by many. Anglers can choose to fish from the shore or a boat, and they can expect to catch rainbow trout, eastern brook trout, tiger trout, and at certain times of the year, chinook salmon.

Fish Lake Resort is open year-round, which is excellent for accessing some of the wonderful outdoor recreation fun in the area, especially in winter. In fact, the resort is right next door to a couple of long trails that hikers can enjoy.

The closest town with grocery stores, shopping, and a hospital is Medford, which is about 40 miles west. Due to the remoteness and rugged terrain, any visitors to Fish Lake Resort and the surrounding area are highly advised to stock up on food and RV supplies before entering the mountains. Rent an RV and prepare to embark on an RV camping trip of a lifetime.
