Wagon House History
Moved from the Fort Klamath historic site to its present location in the early 1900’s, the original hand hewn beam and wood floors will take you to the rugged days of the west.
Built approximately 130 years ago, the wagon shed, as it was referred to then, housed all the necessary tools and materials to build and maintain the Fort’s wagons.
Fort Klamath was a Frontier Military Post from 1863 to 1890, originally established to keep peace among the Klamath, Modoc and Yahooskin tribes. Another duty of the Fort was keeping peace between the settlers and the Indians. Winters were brutal, supplies were scarce, and day-to-day living was difficult at best.
The Local Fort Klamath museum, ably manned by First Sergeant Kevin Fields, is a great place to take it all in. Sergeant Fields is a wonderful guide for time travel and he’ll have you reliving the old west before you know it.
So if you like history, consider a stay at the Wagon House a chance of a lifetime.
Amenities
All Rooms Include…
WiFi
The Aspen Inn is in a very rural location with limited services, however, we do have free, reliable WI-FI, with an option to upgrade to an ultra-broadband service that allows for streaming.
Pets
The Aspen Inn is very dog friendly. There is a non-refundable $20/dog pet fee. See the Aspen Inn’s Dog Rules web page under our Rates and Policies section. The Aspen Inn is “dog-friendly” and requires that all pets be declared upon check-in. There is a $20/dog pet fee, due upon check-in. Undeclared pets will result in an automatic $50 charge.

Food
Depending on the time of the year you visit Crater Lake, there are from 1 to 3 options. In Fort Klamath (where we are located) there is a camper store and organic deli & grocery. In Chiloquin (12 miles southeast of the Aspen Inn) there are a few different restaurants and two local grocery stores.
Air Conditioning/Heating
Like most folks out here, we do not have air conditioning. In the summertime, the daytime temps can reach into the mid nineties. However, the night-time temps will drop down into the low fifties to low sixties. Each accommodation has at least a couple of fans, and there are good screens on the windows. Around here we enjoy cool nights, sleeping with the fans on and the windows open, listening to the sounds of the country. As for heating…we’ve got you covered! Each room has efficient electric heaters to keep you warm and toasty on those cold nights.
Cooking
Cooking is not allowed in the rooms, suites or cabins EXCEPT by microwave. We do have a nice gas bbq grill with an additional burner for a pot or pan. The grill is located on the cooking patio and is available for guest use until 10:00 p.m. Cooking odors are difficult to remove. Guests are responsible for a $150/night cleaning fee if management determines they have cooked in the room. An outdoor cooking area is available on the patio next to the office. There is a gas grill with an additional “stove-top” burner available, free of charge for guest use.

Smoking
All accommodations are non-smoking. No exceptions. Per Oregon statutes, smoking is prohibited within 10 feet of all public buildings, and discarding cigarettes on the ground is considered offensive littering. These statutes also apply to medical and recreational marijuana. Guests are welcome to smoke in areas away from accommodations and we ask that you respectfully dispose of cigarette butts safely and properly.
Cancellations
A two-week notice of cancellation or change (shorten reservation by one day, etc.), prior to arrival, is required for refunds. For example: A reservation for Sept. 7th would require cancellation no later than 10:00 p.m. on Aug. 24th to avoid forfeiture of deposit. When two-weeks notice is received, deposits are refunded in full, less a $20 cancellation fee per room. Cancellations and changes made with less than two-weeks notice will result in a forfeiture of the full deposit. Additionally, if the reservation stay is shortened with less than 2 weeks notice, guests are responsible for the additional nights.

Upon making a reservation, a deposit equal to one night, plus tax, is charged. Any balance due for a multiple-night stay, pet fees, etc. are required upon check-in.
