Black Butte Lake has become a popular location
for paddling and boating alike. In the spring is
the ideal time of year to paddle here when the
air temperatures are mild and the wildflowers
are in full bloom.
The weather is warm, but not too hot, and there
are not too many people out and about. Expect
clear, sunny skies and fewer visitors before the
summer crowds arrive!
In the summer, the hot air temperature can make
visiting during the daytime anywhere from
unpleasant to darn right lethal. For that
reason, if you go in the summer, paddle early if
you plan to visit here. Plus, you’ll be rewarded
with amazing views as the sun's rays illuminate
the water's surface. If you're planning a
trip in the winter, only the Buckhorn
Campground is open twelve months of the
year. The Orland Buttes Campground closes
from October through to the end of March.
You can opt to paddle the lake sections at a
time by launching from one of the three boat
launches located at Buckhorn, Orland Buttes, and
Eagle Pass Recreation Areas. The lake boasts
abundant fishing, camping, jet and waterskiing
and wake boarding.
If fishing is your thing, wet a line and see
what’s biting. Kayak anglers will be delighted
at the abundance of fish in the lake. No matter
if you are an experienced angler or are just
starting to dip your toe into the sport of
fishing, it’s well worth the d rive
just to fish Black Butte Lake. So pack the car
up, and head over to Black Butte Lake for a fun
filled paddling, fishing, and camping getaway.
They all make for an unparalleled outdoor
experience!
