as a local( from maupin , 19 miles away ) i have never rented a campsite, but i spend more time at the lake than on the hot shadeless deschutes in the summer, as a smartperson would. great bar , lively locals and the lake is stocked usually several times a year with all sizes , up to brooders, which are bigger than a lot of river salmon . talking 35 lb trout. In november odfw stocked 3000 more legal size fish. wanna raft, drive the twenty minutes to maupin , you wanna cool down and party hearty in a campground, sleep at the lake in the trees. just gas up before you come, marine supreme is all they had last year, 16 bucks a gallon
