Our Take
What makes Jubilee Lake Campground (OR) special
Jubilee Lake Campground holds the distinction of being the largest campground on the Umatilla National Forest, and it earns that status with a setting that is nothing short of spectacular. Nestled at high elevation among towering spruce and fir trees in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon, this 55-site campground wraps around the shores of Jubilee Lake, a serene mountain lake that invites fishing, canoeing, and quiet afternoons watching the reflections shift on the water. The forest here feels ancient and deeply peaceful, with thick canopy filtering the sunlight into soft, dappled patterns across the forest floor. A trail circles the lake, offering an easy and scenic walk perfect for families or anyone who wants to stretch their legs after setting up camp. The high-elevation setting means cooler temperatures even in the height of summer, making Jubilee Lake a welcome escape when the valleys below bake in the heat. Anglers will appreciate the stocked trout fishing, while birders and wildlife enthusiasts can keep watch for the forest residents that call this corner of the Umatilla home. If you are looking for a campground in Oregon that feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, Jubilee Lake is a destination well worth the drive.
