Lake Albert, Oregon?
We're driving from Reno to Burns on Monday and I'm looking for an interesting half-way spot to stop along 395. Noticed Albert Lake and managed to find some vague info on dispersed camping, but nothing...

So, wanted to give you all an update on what we ended up doing. Hubby got distracted by a "golf" sign at Likely so that's where we stayed LOL. However I've got a few pointers for others coming north on 395 this way:
- Goose Lake is DRY...at least looked almost completely dry as we passed. Very sad.
- Lake Albert is stark & remote like everyone said, but there are a few large turn-outs on the southern side of the lake which could easily accommodate a few rigs. Even though the lake is low the Albert Rim is pretty darn amazing. It's one of highest fault scarps in the United States and quite impressive to see.
- Highway Well Rest Stop is around half-way between Lakeview & Burns and not a bad spot to stop if needed. I believe OR has 12-hour rule in their rest stops, but I can't see anyone being bothered here for a night.
