For a day of fun in the sun, head out to Emigrant Lake. With 1467 acres and 12 mi. of lake frontage, this popular destination offers a boatload of recreational activities. Take your pick of RV or tent camping, fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, waterskiing, swimming, picnicking, hiking, playing on the playground, or sliding down the exhilarating, 280-ft. twin flume water slide — and that's just for starters! Amenities include full-hookup RV sites, individual and group campsites, boat ramps, and four covered group picnic areas with tables, electricity, barbecues, large campfire ring, horseshoe pit and nearby restrooms. These sheltered group picnic areas are perfect for large events like family reunions, company picnics and wedding receptions. The water slide area offers dressing rooms, lockers, showers, restrooms, picnic tables, and a concession stand with a full menu. The park is open year-round, although some of the attractions are seasonal. Emigrant Lake is a great place to get away from it all, yet only a short drive from Ashland or Medford.
WHERE: Approximately 6.5 mi. southeast of Ashland, on Hwy 66
