Chickahominy Recreation Site

About this site

Chickahominy Recreation Site offers 28 campsites, a fish cleaning station, drinking water, vault restrooms and a boat ramp. The extensive valley where Chickahominy Reservoir lies is surrounded by foothills, distant buttes and rough ridges—a landscape that provides far-reaching views of the open high desert country. Camping fees are $8 per vehicle, per night. Campsites are available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Shade is limited and strong winds are common; be prepared to tie everything down. Wildlife species common to the area include mule deer, pronghorn antelope, black-tailed jackrabbits, coyotes, and ground squirrels. A variety of waterfowl, raptors and songbirds frequent the area as well. Additional Info: Fishing season peaks in June and resumes in September. Ice fishing is popular from December to late February. Five trout per day limit (eight-inch minimum length); bait is allowed. Located on Highway 20 between Bend and Burns, Oregon, approximately 32 miles west of Burns at milepost 100.
