CLASSIC CHOICE:
Crater Lake Lodge. The 171-room lodge opened in 1915 and underwent a $15 million renovation in 1995 that restored its northwest flavor -- all the better to frame those fab Lake Klamath views. From $126-$241.
PLAN B:
Mazama Village Motor Inn ($107) is it. The no-frills 40-roomer is mostly about location (seven miles from the rim of Crater Lake), convenience (in the Mazama Village complex) and a solid night's rest.
OTHER OPTIONS:
No beds, but pitch your tent on the hard dirt floors at Lost Creek or Mazama campgrounds. About $14-$18.
