Poole Creek Campground

This campground is operated by a concessionaire under permit from the Umpqua National Forest. 

Situated in a mixed stand of lodgepole pine, mountain hemlock and Shasta red fir, this campground hugs the west shore of Lemolo Lake, just south of Poole Creek. Lemolo Lake is also the highest reservoir on the North Umpqua River. This campground is popular with a variety of outdoor enthusiasts, offering fishing opportunities throughout much of the year and wildlife viewing during all seasons.

Please follow the guidelines below to ensure your pets remain welcome to visit the Forest in the future:

  • Leave vicious or unusually noisy dogs at home.
  • During the day keep your dog on a leash no more than six feet long or otherwise restrict its freedom to roam at will. Domestic animals are not allowed to run loose in recreation areas where they will disturb others.
  • At night keep your dogs and other pets inside an enclosed vehicle or in a tent.
  • Dogs may not be left alone at your campsite, picnic area or in your vehicle.
  • Never leave your dog alone in a closed vehicle or tent even for a short time. It may whine or bark while you are away.
  • Clean up after your pet. It will only take a few minutes, and there is no single action that will more favorably impress your fellow campers.
  • Whenever possible select a campsite on the edge of the campground and away from the shoreline.
