About the Business
East Devil's Lake State Recreation Area is a popular tourist attraction located in Otis, Oregon, United States. The park consists of two sections on opposite sides of Devils Lake. The west shore features a campground just minutes away from downtown Lincoln City and a short walk to the beach. On the east side, visitors can enjoy a day-use park with a boat launch, perfect for boating, fishing, and paddling on the serene 685-acre lake. The lake is home to a variety of freshwater fish and serves as a wintering ground for migratory birds like geese and ducks, as well as nesting sites for osprey and bald eagles. The campground is the only one on the Oregon coast located within a city, making it a convenient base for exploring Lincoln City's attractions. Devil's Lake Campground offers a fishing dock and boat moorage docks, with access to other lakeside parks. The day-use park features amenities such as a boat launch, fishing dock, picnic tables, and restroom facilities. Although kayak tours are no longer offered at Devil's Lake, visitors can still enjoy tours at nearby state parks. The campground is open year-round, but some sites may be closed during the rainy winter season. Limited tent sites can accommodate trailers under 14 feet in length, and additional vehicle parking is available for a fee. The park also offers pet-friendly yurts for those traveling with furry friends. Devil's Lake State Recreation Area has a rich history, acquired through a gift from the city of Delake and private land purchases. The name "Devil's Lake" comes from an Indian legend about a serpent or spirit residing in the lake. Despite common usage of "Devils Lake" without an apostrophe, the park officially uses the apostrophe in its name, as seen in historical documents and deed language. Visitors can enjoy the natural beauty and recreational opportunities at East Devil's Lake State Recreation Area, a hidden gem on the Oregon coast.
Reviews
"Lots of parking and beautiful ocean view. Small walk around the park area to see from different areas of the ocean."
"Beautiful lake ! Nice place to relax lots of peace! Come on down!"
"A great place for all different kinds of activities such as picnics, a beautiful view, a nice walk, and relaxation. The dogs even love it here."
"Nice park with about 50 legal parking spots at least, including RV/boat parking. Big mown grassy area; no playground. Nice wide view over the lake. At least 10 picnic tables (I counted!), including 3 in a secluded upper area which would be good for groups. Two fishing docks. Restrooms and trash cans. Several of the picnic tables are right along the parking, and would most likely be handicapped accessible. Several grills. Park is open until 10:00 p.m. per sign. Did not see the Devil's Lake monster, sadly. If this information was useful, I would appreciate a quick like. Thank you!"
"I love this park! There is a really cool little trail through the woods (it’s a flat, 5-10 minute walk) that I love to take my dog on. There is also a boat launch into Devil’s Lake (supposedly called that because fisherman often encountered huge creatures or fish that would rise up out of the water, or something like that). There are picnic tables and grills and those extra long parking spaces for boat trailers and things."
