Oregon’s Clear Lake Resort is a rustic getaway in the middle of old growth forest, lava flows and crystal clear waters.

Clear Lake Resort offer rustic cabins that provide protection from the elements and easy access to the surrounding natural attractions.

Clear Lake Resort sits on the shores of Clear Lake in Oregon.  The lake is annually stocked with trout and great fun to fish.  Amazing views abound.  The kids will love the adventure to be found here.

Visitors can enjoy a hike, run, or mountain bike around the Clear Lake Loop Trail right for the steps of your cabin.  It also connects to the epic, 26 mile, McKenzie River Trail and Santiam Wagon Trail (a historic trail used by the settlers to come to Oregon).

In fact, a couple miles from Clear Lake Resort to the north is Fish Lake Remount Depot – the remains of the historic government camp used to supply the wagon trains (free to explore) and a few miles south are Sahalie Falls and Koosah Falls that you won’t want to miss.  A little further down is the Tamolitch Blue Pool hike.

In addition, Clear Lake Resort is located near the McKenzie and Santiam Rivers; great waterways for river rafting, floating and boating.
