About this campground
Overview Poison Creek Recreation Site is a small, approximately 27-acre reservoir in the Silvies Valley area, managed by the Bureau of Land Management’s Burns District in southeast Oregon. The landscape surrounding it is classic eastern Oregon high desert: scattered sagebrush, rocky rimrock outcroppings, and marshy fringes that attract birds and offer tranquil scenery. As the story goes, the reservoir, and the creek that feeds it, were named ‘Poison Creek’ not because of actual toxins, but due to early incidents where local cattle became ill after grazing on wild parsnip plants growing nearby
