About
Goose Lake State Recreation Area sits at the northern tip of Goose Lake, a large seasonal lakebed straddling the Oregon-California border. The campground offers 48 sites: 42 with water and 20-amp electrical hookups suited for RVs and trailers, plus 6 grassy tent sites. All camping is first-come, first-served with no advance reservations. Facilities include flush toilets, hot showers, and an RV dump station ($10 per use). Firewood bundles are available for purchase at $5 each from 4-8 p.m. at the campground woodshed. Pets are welcome on leashes up to six feet, with a designated off-leash area west of the railroad tracks. The remote high-desert location makes an excellent base camp for exploring nearby attractions including Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge, the 8,500-foot Warner Mountains to the east, and the obsidian beds in California's Modoc National Forest. A historic railroad line crosses through the park.
