About
Stone Creek Campground occupies a forested cove on Timothy Lake's southeastern shore within Mount Hood National Forest. Created in 1956 as a storage reservoir for the Oak Grove Hydroelectric Project, Timothy Lake spans roughly 1,400 acres and offers excellent fishing for kokanee salmon and various trout species. The campground sits at 3,400 feet elevation in a mixed conifer forest with a thick rhododendron understory providing privacy between sites. The campground is divided into separate loops: Loop B contains 21 tent-only sites where generators are prohibited, while Loop A offers 22 RV-sized non-electric sites. Two equestrian-friendly group camps accommodating 36 people each are located across the road. A day-use area provides non-motorized boat access, picnicking, and views of Mt. Hood. The 12-mile Timothy Lake Trail circles the lake and connects to the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail. The Clackamas Lake Ranger Station Historic District, featuring early 1900s rustic architecture, lies less than 3 miles away. Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood is approximately 28 miles north.
