About
US Forest Service campground. Deep Creek campground is located in the South Warner Mountains, one hour 25 minutes southeast of Lakeview, Oregon. This site offers rustic camping in a ponderosa pine, cottonwood, and aspen setting. Colorful wildflowers are abundant in spring and early summer. It is a popular camp in the fall for hunters. Amenities include four campsites along the creek, each with picnic tables and fire ring. One vault toilet is available on site. Visitors need to pack plenty of water as there is no potable water onsite. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
