Welcome to the Lemolo Lake / Crater Lake North KOA Holiday!

WE ARE NOW CLOSED FOR THE WINTER.
HOWEVER, WE ARE ACTIVELY BOOKING FOR THE 2025 SEASON!
SITES FOR PRIME SEASON DATES RESERVE QUICKLY, SO WE RECOMMEND BOOKING EARLY.
IF YOU HAVE A FAVORITE RV SITE, TENT SITE OR CABIN, PLEASE LEAVE A NOTE ON YOUR RESERVATION AND WE WILL ACCOMMODATE IF POSSIBLE.

WE THANK ALL OF OUR GUESTS THAT VISITED US THIS YEAR

WELCOME!
Is it time for some Quiet Life Travel?
Maybe a Cabin in the Mountains?
We have your covered, whether it's a Newly Remodeled Deluxe Cabin, Camping Cabin, RV Site (with full hook ups) or a tent site on or off the water.  
UNPLUG - This isn't concrete camping.  There's no highway traffic noise here.  No train traffic, No airplanes overhead, No national chain store across the street.  
What's here?  NATURE!  Beautiful, majestic, relaxing, rejuvenating, soul filling.  It's also ready to explore if you need some Adventure Activities while you're here.

We start with a beautiful setting on a stream fed mountain Lake.  You can fish, boat, kayak, canoe, pedal boat, paddle board or swim in the quiet and serene mountain setting. 
Need some time hiking in the woods?  How about Seven (yes 7) Waterfalls hikes?  All are within a short drive of the campground.  Some are Very Easy, Some a Little More Challenging.
If that's not enough yet, how about a local hot springs or miles and miles of hiking & mountain biking trails. 
Add the warmth of a camp fire in the evening, munching on a freshly baked pizza delivered to your site by our staff and sleeping under an amazing star-filled dark night sky to cap it all off.  
Oh, we forgot to mention the awe inspiring CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK is also just a few miles away (18 miles to the North Entrance to be exact).

Lemolo (pronounced Lem-O-Low) - derived from a Chinook Indian word meaning "wild" or "untamed".  And when you get here, you'll see that it fits.      
All this, with KOA quality you expect:
6 Newly Remodeled Deluxe Cabins (3 remodeled for 2024) 
Our New in '22 Camping Cabins
Full Hook-up RV Sites
Tent Sites (both Traditional sites with water & 110 electrical service & Walk-in Lake Front Sites), 

And were not finished yet!
Our recently constructed "Nature Play" area is designed to let the kids expend some extra energy.
We opened our Picnic Pavilion in 2024 along with a Concrete Cornhole game all next to the nature play area so you can play while the kids do.
Our New - 3 times bigger - Store opened for the 2023 and is well stocked with ALL the Camping & Get Out and Explore Items You need when you visit.  
For the 2025 season we are working some exciting additions to go along with our fresh baked pizza offerings.  Details to come...

Come enjoy our hospitality.
Tell us about the adventure activities your working on and we'll add a few things to your list from the area.
Whether your into Solo Travel or your bringing the family and friends, it's all here waiting.

Our goal is to provide an opportunity for you to create some great memories you'll want to share with everyone you can.
Come see and play at our beautiful lake!  It's the world's ONLY Dinosaur-Shaped Lake - (as far as we know) .

We can't wait to see you!

    From a preserve in Southern Alaska where you can watch salmon swim upstream to an Ohioan oasis boasting a historic railroad, here are six of the best national parks to visit in the summer. 

Local Area

Crater Lake National Park

Lemolo Lake/Crater Lake North KOA is located just 18 miles north of the North entrance to Crater Lake National Park. The unmatched beauty of this national park is a must see for any traveler through the region and is the only National Park in Oregon. The north entrance "typically" opens around June 1st of each year, but can fluctuate a few weeks either side of that date depending on snowfall in a given year. The North entrance closes on November 1st each year, unless snow fall closes it earlier. The website link for this section provides all the details on road conditions and other information you'll need before visiting Crater Lake National Park.  
If the north entrance is not open when you visit the area, don't worry, the South entrance to the park is open YEAR ROUND and only adds about 45 minutes to your drive.

Watson Falls

A local favorite and the tallest waterfall in the area at nearly 300 feet.  This one is well worth the 15-minute hike from the parking area just off Highway 138.  The trailhead is about 12 miles from the turnoff to our campground and is well marked along the highway with forest service signage.  As one of the most popular waterfall hikes, quite a bit of parking is provided and it's configured so most large vehicles can get in and out.
