Amazing camp ground experience! Being so close to the lake was wonderful and being 30 minutes away from Crater Lake was a huge plus. My fianc and I are planning to stay there again.
@RachaelL834364 · Camped on Aug 28, 2025 at Campsite #B12
Lots of reserved site were empty. I wish there was at least a small refund so people would cancel their reservation if they can't use it. Then it would free it up for others to enjoy.

Beautiful quiet campground and the campsite had a wonderful view of the lake and mt theilsen. Facilities were clean. Fair warning, ground squirrels were plentiful and bold! Keep your food secured!
@AngelaA3315748 · Camped on Aug 22, 2025 at Campsite #B15
Lots of chipmunks that arent afraid to come right up to you so secure your food well. Cute spot, pretty primitive, but had vault toilets and is right on diamond lake which was beautiful! The spots are spacious and semi private.

I was initially bummed that we couldn't get a camping spot by the water but the dock and shore was just a short walk from our site in the A loop and honestly this campground was awesome. The lake is gorgeous, stargazing at night on the dock was amazing, and the Diamond Lake Resort store about 15 minutes down the road has almost everything you need if you forget something. We're going to keep this campground in mind for future camping trips even if we're still traveling from the Puget Sound area.

My reserved spot was next to the camp host and I was a little worried because I had a gaggle of teenagers with me. He was very understanding and pulled the reigns in when he needed to in a very nice way. Great experience and great host!
@MarkD7704923 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #B6
Great views, clean bc and quiet campground
@DominicR91BA23 · Camped on Aug 11, 2025 at Campsite #A21
The site was clean and it also had enough space in between camp sites.
@johnc3063297 · Camped on Aug 11, 2025 at Campsite #A20
A great base for hiking Mt. Thielsen and Mt. Bailey as well as exploring Crator Lake. The campground is spacious with great views and shade. The only downside was the density of mosquitos.
@DJP99B45686353 · Camped on Aug 4, 2025 at Campsite #B7
This was an amazing camp. My friend and I wanted to camp here so we could spend the day at Crater Lake and it worked out really well. There was tons of space in between my camp and others. There was not a single issue I can think of. The views and trees were both so beautiful. There was also 5G for my Verizon phone, which was surprising, I highly recommend it!
@DaveF4905685 · Camped on Aug 4, 2025 at Campsite #A18
Love the quietness and spaciousness of the sites at this campground! Our only suggestion is that we missed not meeting the hosts. The never came by even to wave or say hi during our stay. We enjoyed meeting the hosts from our previous stays, but this time they were pretty much hermits.
@IanD1383625 · Camped on Aug 2, 2025 at Campsite #12
Beautiful campground to stay at for diamond lake and crater lake! Bathrooms are clean and water is easily accessible.
@JenS8690337 · Camped on Aug 1, 2025 at Campsite #B10
Its a fantastic area overall. I was there over a weekend however the camp host wasnt there on F, S, Sun and the part of MondY I was still there. I had questions, but alas! And the toilet paper closest to us ran out by the evening and not replaced til sometime late morning g. Note to self; bring additional toilet paper .
@MikeK6232833 · Camped on Jul 24, 2025 at Campsite #12
The campground was nice and quiet with water and clean vault toilets.
@RobertM6972821 · Camped on Jul 14, 2025 at Campsite #B11
Thieslen View is the Best! Spacious campsites with good access to the lakefront for swimming with a sandy bottom. There was plenty of small wood on the forest floor, we didn't have to buy or bring any for our nightly fires. The Diamond lake bike loop had easy access from the campground and provided a fun day trip to the resort/store. Was a great base camp for a day trip to Crater lake, waterfall hikes down Hwy 138 or nearby mountain hikes, the fishing was easy and the ones we caught we big and fought really well. The pit toilets were kept clean and well stocked with TP.
@ChadR7031186 · Camped on Jul 12, 2025 at Campsite #B15
Best campground in Oregon! I always look forward to going there every July. I really enjoy fishing at Diamond Lake, the resort is clean and accessible, and the lake is fantastic for swimming.
@RyanN53759A748 · Camped on Jul 1, 2025 at Campsite #B2
I like the location but would have like to have had a sink or shower. Other than that everything was great
@GregS1457823 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #A21
very few insects for this time of year
@RobbyT0F01042C · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #A6
Great campsite.Quiet campsite.Clean bathrooms.Great views.Only issue was mosquitoes everywhere out in force
@JoanH4402928 · Camped on Jun 24, 2025 at Campsite #B4
Beautiful views. The trail around the lake is pretty and easy. Make sure you bring mosquitoes repellent.
@KayV9AC0B9888A · Camped on Jun 24, 2025 at Campsite #10
Thielsen View Campground is a truly beautiful campground on the shores of Diamond Lake. It's near Crater Lake National Park, and the drive around the lake is great. On the down-side, there are no hook-ups for RVs, and a total absence of garbage bins. Mosquitos are legion, so don't forget your Deep Woods Off!
@albertmDB30199 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #18
Generators running all day long, dogs left alone to bark and whine without supervision. Not the camping experience we expected. If people want to run a generator so they can stay in the RV and play vidio games why not just stay home in my opinion. If your looking for a quiet stay to enjoy nature this camp ground is NOT what you are looking for.
@JoeS9925475 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #B17
Great place to stay for fishing Diamond Lake and for biking and hiking
@DavidM9841724 · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #13
Was sad that we had to wait 2 hours for the campground to open on the 19th, but other than that we had the best campground there and the fishing was excellent! Love that place!
@MichaelB697476 · Camped on Aug 12, 2024 at Campsite #B6
Quiet, out of the way. Outstanding scenery. Clean campground. Plenty of room between sites, yet close enough for friends to get together. Friendly camp hosts. We always enjoy our stay here.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
