Umpqua National Forest - Toketee Lake Campground Host

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: USDA Forest Service

Toketee Lake Campground is a dry camping facility.

Volunteers must be self-contained as there are no electrical, water, or sewer hookups.

Incidental subsistence reimbursement is provided.


Toketee Lake Campground and Group Site is located 59 miles East of Roseburg, Oregon, off Forest Road 34. The 32 site campground sits across Toketee Lake from the Diamond Lake Ranger District Office.


Hosts will be onsite and available for contact by the public at least 5 days a week, up to 8 hours per day. Actual shifts may vary and must coordinate with arrival of campers. Hosts will coordinate with FS personnel regarding signing campsites for reservations and other day to day tasks, including when the hosts are taking days off for personal use.


There are two spectacular waterfalls within a five-minute drive of the site. Watson Falls is 272 feet high and has a short trail to the base of the falls. During wetter months be prepared to get a cool shower of fresh mountain water. Toketee Falls is an amazing two level falls flowing out of a basalt column wall. The viewing platform is less than a half mile down the trail. If you need a little faster paced recreation, there is the North Umpqua Trail. This is a very popular trail for mountain biking. Many bikers use Toketee as a base camp for exploring the North Umpqua Trail.
