Holbrook Reservoir, 35 minutes southeast of Bly, Oregon, is an ideal destination if you’re seeking a quiet, forested setting for fishing and leisure. Holbrook Reservoir is one of three major points of interest in the Lofton Recreation Area. The reservoir is stocked on a rotational basis. There is a boat ramp and dock, and boats with electric motors are permitted. Ponderosa pines dominate the landscape and make for a cool and shady campground. Holbrook Reservoir features four designated campsites with picnic tables, fire rings, grates and two vault toilets. There are about eight dispersed sites throughout the campground that have no amenities. This is a popular campground during hunting season in the fall. In the winter, snowmobilers often ride their snowmobiles from Quartz Mountain Sno-Park to Holbrook Reservoir. There is no potable water. Visitors need to pack plenty of water.
Holbrook Reservoir Campground is located 35 minutes east of Bly, OR. From Bly, take Oregon Highway 140 east toward Lakeview, Oregon. Turn left onto Forest Road (FS) 3715 then right on FS Road 3817 to campground. Holbrook Reservoir vicinity map.
