About
Situated on the south shore of Phillips Lake in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, Millers Lane Campground offers an intimate camping experience as the smallest of three campgrounds near the lake. Set in a warm, open ponderosa pine forest, the campground features 11 tent/trailer sites and 4 tent-only sites available on a first-come, first-served basis. The campground provides access to Phillips Lake for fishing and non-motorized boating, though fluctuating water levels may require a short hike down to the water. The South Shoreline Trail is accessible from the campground, offering opportunities for hiking and wildlife observation. Each campsite includes a picnic table and fire pit. The area is known for moderate use and provides a quieter alternative to larger campgrounds in the region. The campground is managed by Anthony Lakes Campgrounds concessionaire and operates seasonally from May through September. Visitors should bring their own water as none is available on-site. Vault toilets are provided.
