Crater lake

Suggestions on toting a 30 ft 5fw to crater lake
  • We came up to Crater Lake from Seven feathers Casino. Traveled hwy 227 to hwy 62. Up the road on 62 we stayed at the Forest Service Campgrounds near the Lake.
  • Thr park was still half way snowed in when we were there in early July a couple years ago. You could only drive on the southern half of the loop around the Lake. But the roads are excellent and you shouldn't have any problems.
  • Another suggestion is Joseph Stewart State Park...another excellent Oregon State Park. Easy drive up to Crater Lake. Huge full featured park. If you have a dog, it also has a great off leash area, great trail system and is on a lake.

    Have a good trip.

  • From where? From 97 side get reservations at Diamond Lake resort.
  • Not sure what you're asking, but we stayed at Diamond Lake RV Park (private, with hookups) and found it perfect for our use. We were towing a 34' fifth-wheel. We found it easy to drive into Crater Lake.
  • Keep an eye on weather and road conditions - Oregon has had a tough Winter. Crater Lake website does a pretty good job describing road conditions within the park -even has a number of web cams running 24/7. Right now I suspect it's snowy/icy.
