About

Sru Lake Campground is a small, remote campground located in a scenic mountain lake setting within the Powers Ranger District of Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest. With only 6 campsites, this first-come, first-served campground provides an intimate backcountry experience for those seeking solitude in southwest Oregon's mountains. The campground features basic amenities including picnic tables and fire pits at each site, a fishing platform on the lake, and a vault toilet. Campers must bring their own drinking water and pack out all trash, as no water or garbage service is provided. The site is also conveniently located near the Coquille River Falls Research Natural Area, offering additional exploration opportunities. Access to Sru Lake Campground requires a 21-mile drive southeast from Powers, Oregon on Forest Road 3348-080. The remote location and forest road access mean the campground may be inaccessible during winter months due to snow. Activities include fishing, swimming, hiking, wildlife viewing, and scenic drives. Dogs are permitted on leash, and OHV/ATV use is prohibited in the campground. Maximum stay is 14 days, with quiet hours enforced between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.
