About
East Davis Campground is situated on the east side of Odell Creek where it enters Davis Lake, offering visitors the opportunity to experience the beauty and recreational opportunities of the eastern Cascade Range within Deschutes National Forest. The campground is mostly covered with pine trees, though there is a burned area nearby from a wildfire several years ago. Davis Lake is one of the most popular fly-fishing-only lakes in the Pacific Northwest, renowned for producing abundant trophy-size rainbow trout and largemouth bass. The lake has speed restrictions to protect the fishing experience. The surrounding area is one of the most productive wildlife areas in central Oregon, offering excellent opportunities for wildlife viewing, wildflowers, and bird watching, with superb views of Cascade peaks. Access to a nearby lava flow adds geological interest to the location. The campground is part of the extensive Deschutes National Forest recreation system, which combines with the adjacent Ochoco National Forest to offer nearly 2.5 million acres and approximately 1,600 miles of trails. Visitors can explore the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway, travel to nearby Lava Lands Visitor Center in Bend, or visit the unique geological landscape of Newberry National Volcanic Monument.
