Camp With Your HorseThe horse camp north of the day-use area has seven campsites with corrals. Each corral accommodates two horses. The camp is also a trailhead for an equestrian trail that meanders through the park. Riders returning to the camp must stay on the trail.

Year-Round Cabin ComfortsEmigrant Springs’ duplex totem cabin and six rustic log cabins offer a unique overnight camping experience. The totem cabin has two separate units; each has a bunk bed with a double mattress on the bottom and a single on top.

The rustic cabins are 13 feet by 13 feet and have six-foot covered porches. Each cabin has a futon couch and a bunk bed that will sleep two on the bottom and one on the top with vinyl-covered mattresses. There is also a small refrigerator, table with chairs, lights, and heating inside. Outside you’ll find a propane stove and oven. Up to two pets (cats and/or dogs only) are allowed in the pet-friendly cabin for an additional $10 per night.

Groups WelcomeThe group tent camping area is reservable year-round by calling Reservations Northwest at 1-800-452-5687. Groups can reserve the community building by calling the park office at 541-983-2277. The building includes both kitchen and dining accommodations.

Group activities for individual campers are regularly scheduled during the summer. Join us for a guided nature hike or an evening interpretive presentation to find out more about the area’s history and natural resources.

Explore the Oregon TrailLearn about the adventures of early settlers from the park’s Oregon Trail interpretive shelter and covered wagon display. Emigrant Springs is near an original section of the Old Oregon Trail. Wagon trains camped in the vicinity for several days and replenished their water barrels from the spring. A monument was erected at this location and dedicated by President Warren G. Harding in their honor on July 3, 1923.

Oregon Trail wagon ruts can be seen at Deadman’s Pass Rest Area seven miles northwest of Emigrant Springs, on I-84, and at the U.S. Forest Service Oregon Trail Interpretive Park located off I-84 (take Exit 248 and follow the signs).
