Devil’s Lake State Recreation Area

Park Overview

Devil’s Lake State Recreation Area consists of two parks on opposite sides of Devils Lake. On the west shore is the campground, located just minutes from downtown Lincoln City and a short walk to the beach. East Devil’s Lake State Park is a day-use park with a boat launch located a short drive around the southern end of the lake.

The lake is 685 acres of serene water unaffected by coastal winds, making it attractive to paddlers, fishers and boaters. The lake abounds with freshwater fish, including rainbow trout, yellow perch, catfish, black crappie, largemouth bass and bluegill. The lake’s wetland is the primary wintering grounds for flocks of migratory geese and ducks. There also several osprey and bald eagle nests in the vicinity.

The campground and East Devil’s Lake are just two of the six lakeside parks and access points.

Seasonal Camping

As the only Oregon coast campground located in the midst of a city, Devil’s Lake Campground is the perfect base camp for exploring Lincoln City’s shopping, beaches and restaurants. D River State Recreation Site is just a 10 minute walk away, over a boardwalk through the wetland and across Hwy 101. 

While none of the campsites have a lake view, a wide trail leads to a fishing dock. Boat moorage docks are adjacent to the campground, but the campground does not have a boat launch; boaters must launch from one of the other access points.

Address: 1452 NE 6th Drive, Lincoln City, OR 97367
