Perry South Campground
Hosted by USDA Forest Service
New listing
Located in the high desert region of central Oregon, Perry South Campground sits on the shores of Lake Billy Chinook in the Deschutes National Forest. It is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy the area's scenic beauty and year-round recreational activities. Fishing and motorized boating top the list of activities for visitors. Motorized and non-motorized boats share the vicinity with swimmers and water skiers braving the cold, clear waters of Lake Billy Chinook. Hikers should be sure to check out nearby Balancing Rocks Overlook, just west of the campground. Picnic areas and scenic overlooks, along with the conveniences of firewood, drinking water and vault toilets, give visitors the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors in a comfortable camping environment. The campground has a boat ramp, and dock space and boat slips are available by reservation. Lake Billy Chinook is the highlight of the area. Created by Round Butte Dam, the lake fills the canyons of the Crooked, Metolius and Deschutes Rivers. Within these three large arms is 72 miles of shoreline, supporting fish habitat for bass, trout, salmon, whitefish, suckers, minnows and dace. Rugged hills and a diverse evergreen forest surround the lake, providing homes for mammals such as mule deer, coyote, black-tailed jackrabbit and cougar. Visitors may want to explore the Tam-a-lau Trail, a scenic hike that starts on a peninsula at the confluence of the Crooked and Deschutes Rivers in Cove Palisades State Park. Nearby Metolius River, designated Wild and Scenic, is nestled in a forested valley west of Mt. Jefferson; its clear, cold and constant waters support flyfishing and whitewater boating. Lava Lands Visitor Center in nearby Bend offers interpretive programs and exhibits on the diverse landscape and history of the area.
