In fact, just across from the grounds is a pool on the creek that is kept well stocked with trout. It is the favorite local fishing hole and a very difficult spot not to catch a fish in. The Prospect Hotel is located in the small hamlet of Prospect which is often called the southern gateway to Crater Lake National Park. The town is only 37 miles from the crater rim and offers all the amenities one could ask for. Prospect is nestled in a lovely valley surrounded on all sides by hundreds of miles of pristine forests.
Recreational activities are abundant.
Within a few minutes easy walk from the hotel are two nature trails through the forest that lead to three waterfalls, two of which drop over 170 feet into the Rogue River Gorge. The Rogue River itself is listed as a National Wild and Scenic River and offers world class fishing and rafting opportunities. We will be happy to arrange guided fishing or rafting expeditions for our guests. Other activities include swimming, boat rentals, fishing, and water skiing at nearby Lost Creek Reservoir. There are miles of hiking trails to enjoy as well as horseback riding, hunting, camping, bicycling, or viewing our many natural wonders.
