About Soda Creek Campground
Overview Soda Creek Campground sits adjacent to Soda Creek as it flows across an open meadow into Sparks Lake. Recreation Sparks Lake's clear water and mountainous backdrop make it a popular destination for paddling and photography. Facilities Soda Creek Campground can accommodate RV, trailer or tent campers, however, electric hookups are not available. There are limited sites that are RV friendly, with most of the sites suitable for smaller vehicles or tent camping. All sites are equipped with a picnic table and campfire ring with grill and the campground has vault toilets available. Campers will need to bring their own water supply. Natural Features Sparks Lake, fed by streams originating on the slopes of Broken Top, rests atop a porous, volcanic lakebed. Throughout the summer the lake level decreases as snowmelt declines and water seeps underground into nearby lakes and streams.
