About Prospect
Surrounded by the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, Prospect sits along Highway 62 right beside the upper Rogue River in southern Oregon. It serves as a natural gateway to Crater Lake and is famous for easy access to hiking trails and stunning spots like Mill Creek Falls. The community holds onto its timber-town roots, centered around local staples like the historic 1892 Prospect Hotel. It makes a wonderful, peaceful place to put down roots if you want quiet mountain living with river adventures right out your back door.
