Setting

Some privacy

Whisky Camp is a 1940s former fireguard cabin set at 3,800 feet under a dense canopy of cedar, pine, and fir in the Tiller Ranger District. The two-room cedar-roofed cabin sleeps four and includes propane heating, propane lights, a cookstove, and a refrigerator. Outside, the site has a tent area, picnic tables, a grill, a fire ring, and a vault toilet. There is no water on site. Situated in southwestern Oregon, the cabin serves as a trailhead for the Bunchgrass, Elkhorn, and Beaver Creek trails, and is within driving distance of Crater Lake National Park.

Getting there: From Canyonville take West 1st Street and turn onto SE 3rd St/OR-227. Continue to follow OR-227 approximately 23 miles until you reach Tiller Oregon and take a left onto Douglas County Road 46 just before the bridge crossing the South Umpqua River. From Tiller, take Douglas County Road 46 for 5 miles to the Jackson Creek/Forest Service Road 29 turn off. Turn right onto FS Road 29 and drive for 9.7 miles to the FS Road 2925 turn off. Take a right onto FS road 2925 where you will cross a bridge over Jackson Creek and follow FS Road 2925 for 6.4 miles to the FS Road 3114-600 spur turn off (note: do not take the left turn onto FS road 2925-600, which is about 1 mile before the 3114-600 turn off). Take a right onto FS Road 3114-600 and follow it for 1.4 miles where you will see a road with a locked gate on your left which leads to spur Road 3114-645 down to Whisky Camp Cabin. Use your combination to enter. Call Tiller Ranger Station if you have questions at (541) 825-3100, but note that depending on your cell phone carrier, reception is very limited to non-existent in the area.
