Christie campground was wonderful. It’s clean, quiet, shaded, and close enough to the lake and marina for kayaking. There’s a 5 mile paved bike trail that goes to the marina as well. The onsite camp hosts are the best: Helpful, kind, and organized. There is firewood for sale that burned better than the wood we brought. Water spigots are close to each site. The bathrooms are clean and stocked at a... Christie campground was wonderful. It’s clean, quiet, shaded, and close enough to the lake and marina for kayaking. There’s a 5 mile paved bike trail that goes to the marina as well. The onsite camp hosts are the best: Helpful, kind, and organized. There is firewood for sale that burned better than the wood we brought. Water spigots are close to each site. The bathrooms are clean and stocked at all times. Our girl gang felt safe as there are no bears. The ground is powdery dirt so keep that in mind when making shoe choices. We will camp here again.

Two other State campgrounds on Eagle Lake Road were open however, Christie was not. It’s 17 miles of bad road at 35/40 MPH off of Highway 139 from the north and about 20 miles in from the south. If you’re doing a one night stop try North Eagle Lake campground as it’s just off 139 at the north end on Eagle Lake Road.

PROS: The bathrooms at this campsites are clean, well kept, and flushable (huge plus). Dogs are allowed here. Our campground host was very kind and helpful during our two night stay. You can purchase wood at $10 a bundle. The camp sites are spacious from each other and clean. Our favorite part was the bike path around the lake so bring them if you can! CONS: The mosquitoes here are almost unbearable… no spray, repellent, or candle could keep them off our group so be prepared. also- If you are not bringing a water toy or fishing at this lake… then there is very little opportunity to swim at eagle lake as there is no beach.

Flush toilets, cold (yummy!) running water, either reserved or first come campsites... What's not to love?! Onsite hosts were friendly and helpful. Fires are allowed in firepits, and the hosts do have some firewood if you didn't bring any. Map is accurate and easy to read, and posted large at the entrance. (OK, there is no on-site shower, but it's a VERY short walk to the lake...) The paths... Flush toilets, cold (yummy!) running water, either reserved or first come campsites... What's not to love?!

(OK, there is no on-site shower, but it's a VERY short walk to the lake...) The paths are well marked, some are paved and easy to walk or ride a bike on, and there is a path(or dirt road if you want to drive) from the campground to the picnic area just south. Quiet hours are 10pm-8am and most folks are cognizant courteous.

We had a very long trip from Arizona to Oregon in our RV. We didnt know what to expect when we arrived at Christie campground. Surprisingly the place was very nice, cleaned restrooms, campsites, and very friendly, accommodating hosts by Mary and Dianne were fantastic.
