About
Trout Farm Campground is one of the smallest and most intimate campgrounds in the Malheur National Forest, located about 13 miles southeast of Prairie City via County Road 62. With just six sites, each featuring a constructed level tent pad, picnic table, and fire ring, it offers a peaceful setting for families and fishing enthusiasts alike. The campground's highlight is its stocked fishing pond, accessible via a barrier-free path with an ADA-accessible pier. Trout Farm Trail connects to the campground, providing hiking opportunities. A newly renovated covered picnic shelter makes this a popular spot for day-use as well. Hunting is permitted in season in the surrounding forest lands near Strawberry Mountain Wilderness. Amenities are basic: vault toilets are available year-round, while potable water from a hand pump is only available during warmer months (typically mid-May through mid-October). Campers must pack out all trash. The campground operates seasonally from May 1 through October 31.
