Locate Warner Creek Inmates

Warner Creek Facility Overview

Warner Creek Correctional Facility is listed by ODOC at 20654 Rabbit Hill Road, Lakeview, OR 97630. It is a minimum-custody state prison for sentenced Oregon adults in custody. The facility is physically in Lake County, so it is part of the broad Lake County inmate population, but it is not operated by the Lake County Sheriff's Office and it is not searched through a county jail roster.

ODOC's issue brief lists the facility superintendent as Jeremy Beaumont, a total of 91 acres, 15 acres inside the fenced perimeter, 102 staff, 28 emergency beds, and a budgeted capacity of 406. The 2025 PREA audit identifies Jeremy Beaumont as warden/administrator and Trevor Stancliff as primary contact. The same audit lists the population designation as men/boys and confirms the facility did not go over capacity during the prior 12 months.

Warner Creek Population

Warner Creek has the strongest recent population record in Lake County. ODOC's July 2022 issue brief reported 381 adults in custody and a budgeted capacity of 406. The 2025 PREA audit reported designed capacity of 406, current population of 391, and a 12-month average daily population of 363. Those are state-prison figures, not county jail counts.

Search Warner Creek Inmates

Use Oregon Offender Search for Warner Creek Correctional Facility inmate lookup. The search page accepts first name, middle name, last name, and SID number. DOC notes that completed names or partial names can be used, and examples include wildcard searches such as Johns* or St*on. VISOR is also useful because it covers custody or supervision search and notification requests.

1. Open Oregon Offender Search and enter a full or partial first and last name, or use the SID number if known.
2. Check spelling and try a wildcard when the name may be incomplete or hyphenated.
3. Review the result for state custody status and facility placement.
4. Use VISOR for custody or supervision search and notification options.
5. Request official or certified offender records through ODOC public-records channels when a locator summary is not enough.

VISOR is especially useful when custody or supervision status matters after a Lake County case has moved beyond the local jail.

Warner Creek Address

Warner Creek uses ODOC contact and family communication rules. Local jail staff should not be used for ordinary sentenced-prisoner lookup, visiting approval, phone validation, or money deposit instructions at Warner Creek. The facility address and phone come from ODOC prison-location and friends/family materials.

Warner Creek Visiting Rules

Warner Creek visiting is governed by ODOC, not by the Lake County Jail. Research found published DOC visiting sessions for Warner Creek and a requirement that all visits be pre-scheduled through ICS Corrections. Visitors must be on the approved list, blue tops or pants are not allowed, unnecessary items are not allowed, and personal items such as keys are stored in lockers. Facility conditions, weather, lockdowns, holidays, and staffing can affect visits, so confirm before driving to Lakeview.

Use the DOC visiting page before travel because ODOC rules can change more quickly than older third-party summaries.

Warner Creek Mail Money Phone

Warner Creek uses ODOC friends and family systems. The DOC sending-money page says Access Corrections / ICS Corrections can be used for commissary and trust-account deposits online, by phone at 866-345-1884, or through other ICSolutions and Western Union routes. DOC materials also list ICS Corrections help at 888-506-8407 and phone validation help at 503-945-0945.

Warner Creek Intake

Warner Creek does not handle street arrests like a county jail. A person reaches a state prison after conviction, sentencing, and DOC intake or classification. A Lake County arrest may begin at the sheriff's jail and later become a Circuit Court case. If the sentence commits the person to ODOC custody, state prison placement and later movement are controlled by DOC rather than the sheriff.

This distinction also affects records. Booking charges, first appearance, bail or security, and court dates belong to the jail and court phase. Facility placement, state custody status, prison visiting approval, sentence calculations, and official offender records belong to ODOC. VISOR may help families watch custody or supervision status after the person leaves county jail custody.

Families should also expect search results to use Oregon custody terms. DOC often uses adult in custody, or AIC, for a person held in state prison. A projected release date can be affected by sentence calculations, credits, and later court action. VISOR had a notice in the research file that sentence-calculation changes may affect projected release dates and that registrants will be notified if a projected release date changes.

Warner Creek Programs

ODOC's Warner Creek issue brief lists education, transition programs, work assignments, religious services, a dog program, and a Transitional Community Unit. Work programs include host agency crews, contract crews, on-site crews, fire crews, and community crews. Those programs fit Warner Creek's minimum-custody role and Lake County's rural, public-land, and wildfire-aware setting.

Warner Creek also has local significance beyond inmate lookup. OPB reported on May 14, 2021 that Oregon Governor Kate Brown reversed course on closing Warner Creek at that time. The report said the prison employed 89 people and held about 300 people in custody then. Use that as dated local history only; current population should come from the 2025 PREA audit and ODOC data.

The facility's work crews are a practical reason Warner Creek belongs in a Lake County inmate population site even though it is not a county jail. The issue brief lists host agency, contract, on-site, fire, and community crews, which connects the prison to local public-land and emergency-service needs. Those program notes should not be read as release eligibility or placement promises for a specific person. Placement, work assignment, and program access are ODOC decisions.
