Southwest Shore Campground is one of 3 campgrounds located around Phillips Lake. This campground usually opens up first in the Spring and has a warm open pine tree setting. Due to fluctuating water levels, the lake may be a short hike down from the campground. Popular activities include; fishing, hiking Phillips Lake South Shoreline Trail #1610, boating, and watching wildlife.
From Baker City, Oregon travel south on Highway 7 towards John Day, Oregon for 22 miles; Once past the upper end of the Phillips Lake turn left on Hudspeth Lane and go 1.2 miles to Forest Road 2220; Turn left on Forest Road 2220 and go 0.5 miles to campground entrance on left side of road.
Lovely private Campground with a long mountain biking hiking trail.
I absolutely appreciate this campground host to be so truly awesome. Our daughter was lifeflighted from Baker City to Bosie id St Lukes hospital to have an emergency c section at 26 weeks shy of when he should have been born. He came in at 2.5 lbs. He was just taken off his feeding tube, this means mom and dad can stay with him. My husband and I threw together what we could in about 15 minutes and raced from Vancouver Washington to Baker City Or. These camp hosts made sure that we were kept warm or if we needed anything. So when I give full marks it’s because the campground went above and beyond the call of Duty!
