Camping at Hart-Tish Park at Applegate Lake near Jacksonville

Public campground · Jacksonville · 16 campsites · 1 group

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Hart-Tish Park sits on the western shore of Applegate Lake in the Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest, a lakeside spot with a groomed lawn that slopes down to the water and direct views to the Red Buttes Wilderness and the Siskiyou Crest. The campground is a handy base for water-based recreation swimming, fishing, canoeing and power boating off the on-site boat ramp and for day trips on land: the CollinS Mountain Trail begins at the Hart-Tish picnic area, drops to Grouse Creek past an abandoned miner's cabin and old mine adits, passes an inactive Bigfoot trap installed in 1974, then climbs roughly 1,000 feet in one steep mile to a ridge for long traverses and panoramic lookouts over Applegate Lake.

“The camp hosts were excellent. We had a great experience.”

Chris S 5 · Aug 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Very clean, great hosts. Would be a 5 star, but one of the toilets in the restroom was out of service, so there was only one women’s toilet available for all the day use and the campers in the resort area.”

How far ahead to book Hart-Tish Park at Applegate Lake

For July weekends, book about 95 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 44 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (2,222 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
