Located on Lower Lake in the Olallie Lake Scenic Area just west of the border with the Warm Springs Indian Reservation. The Lake covers 14 acres and deep.There are numerous small lakes in the area worth exploring. Recreational activities include hiking, fishing, and non-motorized boating.
From Estacada,OR - drive south on Highway 224 and travel 26 miles. The road becomes Forest Service road 46 for 20 miles. Turn east onto Forest Road 4690 amd drive 6 miles on pavement, then about 3 miles on gravel, to a junchtion with Forest Road 4220 at the junction to the resort turn off. The roads are closed in the winter.
It was great! There were some drunk party goers the first night that blared music until 4 a.m. but other than that it was beautiful and fun!
One of my favorite places in the area. Primitive, small campground a bit north of Olallie Lake. A pretty quiet campground that's also a good spot for a base camp for hiking. Lower Lake is a short hike, Fish Lake quite a challenging to/from. I haven't been back since the forest fires, but it was a beautiful spot a couple of years ago! Lots of yellow jackets in the summer, so be prepared. Picture is of Fish Lake, about a 45-60 minute hike from LL Campground.
