Lake Ewauna is a reservoir located in Klamath Falls, Oregon that serves as the headwaters of the Klamath River. Fed by the Link River from Upper Klamath Lake, its water level remains constant throughout the year, controlled by the release of water from Keno Dam approximately 18 miles south of where the Link River enters the reservoir. The lake has a notable history as a log pond for several lumber mills during the 20th century, with some logs still remaining on the lake bottom even though the last floating logs were removed in the 1990s when the final mill closed. Lake Ewauna is also known as an ideal location for crew rowing, with the Ewauna Rowing Club using the lake for practice and competition since 1970.

Oregon Stream Access Laws

The people of Oregon are the owners of the submerged and submersible land (“beds and banks”) underlying all navigable and tidally influenced waterways. In most cases, this ownership extends to the line of ordinary high water or high tide, but ownership can be mixed, even along the same waterway. The Department of State Lands is responsible for management of publicly owned submerged and submersible land. The public has rights to use the beds and banks of navigable waterways for any legal activity, such as boating, fishing and swimming, including pulling your canoe or kayak onto the bank.
