Here in Oregon, we have access to the best outdoor recreation in the country, and we can pretty much *always* be found in the Great Outdoors. And when it’s time to kick back and relax, there’s nothing better than putting up a tent and sleeping under the stars. Better yet? Pitching a tent and sleeping at a beautiful waterfront campground! Situated between a glacial lake and the towering peaks of the Wallowa Mountains, Wallowa Lake State Park is a portrait of Beaver State beauty, with its eponymous lake boasting some of the clearest water in Oregon. This summer, pack your bags and set out to Wallowa Lake Campground for a sublime overnight adventure in Oregon.

Surrounded by the lush forests, glacial lakes, and the wide expanse of eastern Oregon, the Wallowas are one of Oregon's most dazzling treasures.
