About
Located along the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway in Deschutes National Forest, Cultus Corral Horse Camp is designed exclusively for equestrians exploring the Cascade Lakes region. The lightly used campground sits in a conifer forest near Cultus Creek, positioned between Cultus Lake and Crane Prairie Reservoir. The facility features 11 campsites, including 10 sites with 4-horse corrals and one site equipped with highline poles. Each site includes a picnic table and campfire ring with grill. A hand pump provides potable water, and a trail leads down to Cultus Creek for stock watering. Vault toilets serve the campground. The campground can accommodate RVs, trailers, or tents up to 30 feet, though no hookups are available. Situated near the Three Sisters Wilderness, the campground offers equestrians access to hundreds of miles of trails in the Cascade Range. Cultus Lake and Little Cultus Lake, both within a short ride, provide fishing and scenic destinations. The location along the 66-mile Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway provides views of South Sister, Broken Top, and Mount Bachelor. Weed-free feed is required on Deschutes National Forest lands to prevent invasive species spread.
Directions
From Bend, travel approximately 46 miles southwest on Cascade Lakes Highway 46. Turn right onto Forest Road 4635 and travel about 1 mile, then turn right onto Forest Road 4630. The campground is near the end of the road.
