Lofton Campground offers a well-maintained boat ramp and ADA-accessible dock on Lofton Reservoir near Quartz Mountain in Lake County, Oregon. The ramp is ideal for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. Note that water levels fluctuate seasonally, so check current conditions before your trip. The reservoir is annually stocked, making it popular with anglers and recreational paddlers alike.
Beyond paddling, the site provides several amenities that make it a good basecamp for a full day outing. A camp host is typically on-site during summer months to assist visitors, and the campground is pet-friendly. From the water access area, you can take a moderate 3-mile round-trip hiking trail to Heart Lake (1.5 miles out with an uphill return). Picnic areas are available on-site, making Lofton Campground a convenient option for paddlers seeking both water access and day-use facilities in south-central Oregon.
