About
Lane Creek Campground is a lightly-used primitive campground situated among large, open Ponderosa pines in the Blue Mountains of Umatilla National Forest. Located about 11 miles east of Ukiah on Highway 244, this 7-site campground provides a quiet retreat for campers seeking solitude. The campground is adjacent to Lane Creek, though the creek water is not potable. Facilities include two vault toilets, one of which is ADA-accessible, and picnic tables at each campsite. There is no potable water or garbage collection, so campers must bring their own water supply and pack out all trash. Site 3 can accommodate groups at a higher nightly rate. The campground offers hunting and photography opportunities in the surrounding forest. Nearby, the Bear Wallow Interpretive Trail features a quarter-mile loop that educates visitors about the steelhead fish lifecycle. The area sees light use, making it ideal for those seeking a quieter camping experience away from more developed facilities.
Directions
From Ukiah, OR, travel east on Highway 244 approximately 11 miles. Lane Creek Campground is on the left (north) side of the highway.
