About
East Lemolo Campground occupies a cluster of clearings in lodgepole pine forest along the southeast shore of Lemolo Lake at 4,150 feet elevation. The 15 standard nonelectric sites offer an informal camping experience with several sites positioned only feet from the shoreline, providing direct and unobstructed lake access. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring with grill. Lemolo Lake serves as the highest reservoir on the North Umpqua River, reaching depths of up to 100 feet in places. The lake supports populations of German brown trout, Eastern brook trout, rainbow trout, and kokanee salmon, making it a prime fishing destination. Boating, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and water skiing are all popular activities. The adjacent East Lemolo Boat Launch provides additional lake access. Nearby attractions include Lemolo Falls Trail, a steep traverse dropping into North Umpqua Canyon for views of the 150-foot cascade. Access to hiking, mountain biking, and OHV trails is within ten miles. The Rogue-Umpqua National Scenic Byway offers 172 miles of diverse river and mountain landscapes.
