Great place to camp especially with little kids, the water is shallow far out so they can have a lot of fun. This is our 3rd year camping here and we absolutely love it! My sister's youngest is 3yrs old out there floating and the oldest is my 8yr old son who can touch all the way out by his raft (see photo) when he stands it's a little above his waist.
Some of my favorite memories are from growing up camping at Big Lake. I spent my childhood riding dirt bikes here and swimming. Now as an adult I get to come back and make more memories with friends/family! You can never be bored here. The camp host is so nice and helpful. The vibe of the campground is friendly, everyone is always respectful of quiet hours but parties hard during the day! My one and only issue is the mosquitoes, be very prepared for them as they are relentless!
Best campsite ever! Cleanest toilet I 've ever seen. Some campsites have access to beach and we camped at the beach. Stars and Mt. Washington were beautiful! Lake was warm enough to swim and it was sandy like a mediterranean sea.
Big Lake is both a great spot for summer camping with family and a fantastic stopping point for through-hikers on the PCT (about a 1.5-2 mile detour hike). Bathrooms and drinking water faucets are frequently located around the campgrounds. The lake is very swimmable and is quite warm and shallow compared to most lakes in central OR. Visited in late July and the campground was around 60% full, easily found a great spot (site #37 is perfect, just saying). Happy trails!
Great campground for small rigs but you can still enjoy the lake and stay for free at the level asphalt and free Ray Benson Snow Park nearby.
