About LaPine State Park

Nestled near La Pine in Oregon, LaPine State Park provides 128 campsites for nature lovers. This state park combines convenience with natural beauty for an unforgettable camping experience.

Nestled in the heart of central Oregon's high desert landscape, LaPine State Park offers RV travelers a perfect basecamp for exploring one of the Pacific Northwest's most scenic regions. Located at an elevation that brings crisp mountain air and stunning natural beauty, this 128-site campground serves as an ideal gateway to the Deschutes National Forest and the remarkable volcanic geology that defines this corner of Oregon.

The park itself sits along the Deschutes River, making it a destination for anglers, boaters, and anyone seeking the peaceful sound of flowing water. Whether you're launching a boat from the dedicated ramp or casting a line for trout, the river provides excellent recreational opportunities throughout the year. The full hookup sites mean you can settle in comfortably for as long as you'd like, with modern restrooms and shower facilities keeping everyone refreshed after days of outdoor adventure.

LaPine's location puts you within striking distance of some truly remarkable destinations. Crater Lake, one of the deepest and most pristine lakes in America, is a scenic drive away and absolutely worth the trip. The Newberry National Volcanic Monument offers fascinating hiking trails through lava flows and past volcanic cinder cones. Nearby, you'll find numerous hiking opportunities ranging from easy riverside strolls to more challenging mountain trails with panoramic views.

The area appeals to a diverse range of travelers. Fishing enthusiasts come for the excellent trout populations in the river and nearby lakes. Families appreciate the pet-friendly policy and picnic areas with fire rings, perfect for gathering around an evening campfire. Outdoor adventurers and hikers find endless trails to explore in the surrounding national forest. Even those seeking a quieter retreat will find the peaceful setting and natural beauty deeply restorative.

The park remains open year-round, though each season brings different advantages. Summer offers warm days perfect for water activities and hiking. Fall transforms the landscape with golden aspens. Winter brings quieter crowds, and spring awakens the forest with wildflowers and migrating wildlife. With the dump station and full hookups available, you can enjoy extended stays in comfort regardless of the season.

This is a Fantastic year-round campground. Great experience, no bothers & Hot Showers! I was camped alongside the river so a few individuals just pop up or come cruising through on bikes but it was No Worries.

The website doesn’t give the location of your camping spot within the campground and No photo was provided on the site. Had I known the spot was right at the entrance across from the cabins I would have never booked it. The cabin dwellers kept cutting between mine and another renters camp spot to access the toilets instead of using the designated paths. At one point they walked directly through my spot between my car and the picnic table. This is poor camp etiquette and needs to be posted in the cabins as they did not read the courtesy rules at the entrance. I asked them to stop and they did not. They also wore headlamps and shined them into cars, campers and tents. My God…point your head down if your wearing one of those things! The electricity didn’t work at my spot either. A previous renter bent the plugs preventing anything from being plugged into it. I camped in the middle of October during the middle of the week and every spot was booked. The North and Middle campgrounds are shut down to make management easier on staff. So expect crowds and noise. If you have a camper or trailer to sleep in it’s probably fine, the roads are very narrow. I would avoid tent camping due to the noise. I left after one night due to lack of sleep from the cabin renters and lack of electricity. What a waste.

We were on the north loop. Services for our site included water and 20 amp electrical. There are full service sites in the north loop. Love the larger site areas. The site was clean. Plenty of room for our 25 foot travel trailer. Will stay again.
