Unity Lake State Recreation Site

Unity Lake State Recreation Site is an Oregon state park centered on Unity Reservoir along the Burnt River. The reservoir was formed by Unity Dam, an 82-foot earthen dam completed in 1938 by the United States Bureau of Reclamation for irrigation storage, with an original capacity of 27,000 acre-feet. The project does not produce hydroelectric power. While the Bureau of Reclamation owns the dam, the Burnt River Irrigation District operates and maintains it. The surrounding state-managed recreation area, administered by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, provides cabins, campsites, day-use parking, and boat ramps, blending a working water project with camping and boating access.
