Fremont was an unincorporated community located in Lake County, Oregon, United States. The first homesteaders arrived in the area around Fremont in 1905. The population grew quickly, and the Fremont post office was opened in 1908. By 1915, the local population was declining rapidly due to a severe drought that dried up surface water and lowered the water table in the area around Fremont. Today, Fremont is a ghost town with no population and no surviving structures. The site is located approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) west of Fort Rock state park. The nearest inhabited place is the small unincorporated community of Fort Rock, Oregon, which is 6 miles (9.7 km) southeast of the Fremont townsite.
