East Lake Resort is located in a spectacularly scenic, geologic and archeological wonderland located in Central Oregon. Situated in the Newberry National Volcanic Monument Caldera at just under 6,400 feet elevation, the lake is fed by snowmelt and underground springs. Known for it's exceptional trout and kokanee fishing and for it's incredible scenery, East Lake covers 1,050 acres, is approximately a mile in diameter, has a maximum depth of 185 feet, and average depth of over 67 ft. The resort is one of the premier full service fishing resorts in the state. Established in 1915, the resort has cabins, an RV park, lake front tent sites, cafe, espresso window, wifi, general store, gift shop, marina, boat rentals, guided kokanee fishing, and many other services. Owned by David and Kathy Jones of Bend, Oregon since 2006, the resort operates from mid-May through early October.
Known for being one of finest lake fisheries in Oregon, East Lake has trophy Brown Trout, Kokanee, Rainbow Trout and Atlantic Salmon. Because of it's deep weed beds and incredible hatches East Lake is also regarded as one of the best fly fishing lakes in the country and will be one of the host bodies of water for the 2012 Fly Fishing National Championships held this October. East Lake also offers camping, lake swimming, wildlife watching, cave exploring; mountain biking, hiking, horse trails and much more, all within walking distance or a short drive.

Announcements:
Update - 5/17/2012 East Lake Resort will be open on Friday May 25th. There is some open water starting at the hot springs going north toward Cinderhill Campground and west almost to East Lake Campground. There is approximately 250 acres of open water (25% of the lake) but the ice that covers the rest of the lake has a lot color to it, and should be gone within a few days. The gate at the 10 mile mark is open, but the road is still blocked at Paulina Lake Lodge as East Lake has NO ACCESS as of today. All boat launches are still blocked by snow, and there are no campgrounds available. Continue to check this website, we will post when the lake is ice free and when there is a boat launch available. East Lake Resort will be offering guided Kokanee fishing trips this year, so if you want to learn how to catch those soft mouthed little salmon, be sure to call in advance to reserve your spot. The phone has been ringing steady and people are already looking forward to catching those early season Brown Trout. Online reservations can be made by using our website or by giving us a call at 541-536-2230. Thank you for all of your support and we are looking forward to seeing you all back up at the lake this summer. Thank you and God Bless. Your hosts, David and Kathy Jones
