Sunset Bay State Park Campground

We had an enjoyable time at Sunset Bay State Park campground. The park Rangers were very friendly and helpful. Had a nice time walking around with my dog. It’s very clean and safe. I appreciated having bathrooms and showers nearby. There is Wi-Fi available, however it’s only able to be reached if you’re close enough to the entrance so in a section, but even then you need to be closer to the front.

Next time that we are there, we would like to look for space A1, A5, A13, A16, A39, B32.

Absolutely beautiful and clean campgrounds. Lots of retirees in rvs. Showers are hot and nice. Big spaces but right next to each other. Also offer yurts.

Nice, large campground across from the beach. We were way in the back of the campground and the beach was still a short walk away. Bathrooms and showers were clean and nice. Attendant at the front office was helpful and friendly when all the hosts were off duty at 7 pm when we arrived. Campground was full but still felt private and peaceful.

This campground is well-maintained and the campsites are fairly private, separated from each other by thick hedges. Sunset Bay is steps away and has a beautiful beach. We had NO Verizon connection and limited Starlink connectivity — the beautiful tall trees obstruct the satellite visibility. Great place for a long stay if you don’t need to reach the outside world.

Great experience, plenty of campsites, wonderfully hot showers. The D section showers, if you put the handle to the bottom right it'll be nice and hot! Heads up if it's hot in the valley it'll be foggy on this shore but Coos Bay is just a 10 minute drive and it can still be sunny there!

This campsite was everything we needed. We loaded in at night time so it was lovely waking up and being able to see the ocean right along the campsite.

Challenging one lane Gravel Road to get to beautiful Meadow after challenging entrance to golf course with few instructions on how to reach camping area. However, once there it's a beautiful and quiet and well maintained area with numerous sites including a yurt and lots of privacy , Wildlife and Greenery

Nice campground on the small side. Some of A loop backs up to the 540 highway, but it isn't super busy or noisy. Facilities are old and clean. Access to the beach would normally be really easy and we went earlier enough in the season, the trail under the highway was flooded so we had to walk along the highway instead.

The showers were great!!! Sites were a good size and comfortable. This was a very large and very full campground. Found some fantastic views from here.

Overall a nice enough campground. Check-in was easy, only A campsites and a few B were open. Showers in A were out of order. 4 Showers near the Yurts were open, very cold and dark bathroom and shower was luke warm at best. Zero cell service. Our site was nice, a small grassy area at the back with a picnic table and fire ring. Our neighbors across the way were playing music until at least 3am, at least it was mellow country music so not terrible. Walkable beach access for a nice sunset, weather permitting. Overall an ok stay.

Nice little state park. Sites are really close to each other. We are tent campers and usually don’t do state parks. It was a nice early season camping spot. We used this as our base camping for hiking. We covered many miles on the OTC trail and surrounding beaches. The sunset was beautiful the nights we started. Definitely would come back to this campground.

Not much sun in this park Has great beach access

This is a nice little campground. They have full hookups. Paved sites. Close to great sites and other parks.

We camped in two adjacent campsites in loop A. The park is an easy, delightful little walk to Sunset Beach. This is a must-see at sunset, hence the name.

This spot wasn’t on my “must visit” list when planning but it was a gorgeous stop! Lots of places around for little views of the ocean, saw some sea lions, stunning sunset in the bay with only about 8 other people on the beach.

The campground does not have a view of the bay but it was a short walk to the bay for a gorgeous sunset. Some of the spots in the back had good space & greenery surrounds. Lots of friendly people, firewood for sale from hosts, & helpful rangers!

Didn’t get cell service in the site but got service just a short walk from the campground. Also had a little park nearby.

Had clean bathrooms, flush toilets, with hot showers.

Yurts available.

We stayed in one of the full hookup RV sites. Arrived on Thursday and the campground was pretty empty. Filled up Friday night. Our spot was clean and drained fairly well (it rained on our first day. Theres a bit of noise from the golf course road that runs along the edge of some of the site. Hosts were nice but they did have their dog off leash which was a little annoying for everyone else following the rules. It's a very short walk over to the beach/bay. The beach area has some large grass fields and a couple of volleyball courts. Bathrooms were nice and clean and the single use shower stalls were nice (no charge for showers). We would definitely come back.

This campground (CG) has easy access to the small Sunset Bay beach via a walking path that goes under the road. We checked this CG out for a possible future stay. There were a few sites that would fit our 39’ fifth wheel. There was a nice walking trail through the CG. They even had a fish cleaning station. Restroom/shower houses were spaced conveniently throughout for the tent and yurt campers. Restrooms were clean as was the CG. We were there during a weekend and although it was full, the CG was relatively quiet.

The location is pretty unbeatable. You can walk right from your camp out to a beautiful beach in a secluded bay. There are also hiking trails right from the campground. However the sides are right on top of each other. It’s pretty noisy with the youth as well as the foghorns at night which may keep you from sleeping. All in all a good place to stay but very busy. Reservations definitely required..

There is a golf course right next door. Well-curated campground. Tent camping available here, but we stayed in a yurt. Yurts do not have much greenery for privacy, but you have walls, so I suppose that makes up for it.

Inside the yurt is a heater, a small table, a bunk bed, and a futon. Fire pit around the side. Hot showers and potable water everywhere. Camp hosts and staff were pleasant.

Short walk to a gorgeous beach and miles of hiking trails! Caution: dogs not allowed in some nearby parks.

Really enjoyed it

We showed up on a Friday late morning and were able to snag the last available spot.  This place gets busy on weekends, while maintaining a mellow and quiet vibe.  We enjoyed our stay here, even though we had to move on the next day because there were no available sites for Saturday.  If you don't have a reservation you can only take walk up sites one night at a time due to online reservations.

The showers were hot and free.

There is garbage as well as mixed recycling, but they don't take glass.  They do have a separate bin for propane canisters though.

Cell service was ok for Verizon, somewhat usable for T-Mobile, and very weak / unusable for ATT.

The sites are all unique, with some having more privacy than others.  We lucked out and got a site that was practically fully enclosed on three sides.

Easy walking trail from the campground to the water.

Made reservations two weeks out, mid week. Electrical and water at our site. Pad is level. While park is tree lined very easy to navigate with chase rig. Easy walk to the beach from the campground.

The foliage surrounding your camp is only waist high, and the sites are small, so you are in close proximity to your neighbors. That said, the facilities are immaculate, the trails are AMAZING, and the campgrounds are under a pleasant canopy. Bring warmth, if you are touring campsites in the area this will be cooler than any of them. Showers are free and hot. Noise carries, so be mindful of your neighbors at night but also expect a little noise. Worth it I think. Beach is a short walk away.

This is a really great state park. The sites are nice and big and all the trees and foliage makes you feel very secluded. The bathrooms and showers are a nice feature too. There is a paved walking path to the beach. And hardly anyone here in early March. One thing of note, the cell service was pretty much non existent here. That’s probably good for some and not for others.

Located in Coos Bay, Oregon this state campground is one of our favorites. The sites are privacy and surrounded by trees. The beach is only a 5 minute walk from the campground. There are nearby hiking trails and you can hear the seals being noisy out in the ocean. The sites have water and electric, but no dump station. The WiFi service is poor. The bathrooms were dirty and cold. They were also closed for a few months until the second day of our stay. The campground hosts are helpful.

This is one of the most beautiful campgrounds I've been to. Very green with lots of cheerful birds chirping in the morning. Its a short walk to the beach with even more fantastic views. The bathrooms are also very clean with warm water.

Our walk-in site backed up to the golf course (?) which we couldn’t see but could hear. Not terrible, overall a very quiet campground. Restrooms were clean, but did not seemed heated. Doors propped open due to COVID likely didn’t help. Walking distance to the main beach where we hiked up the hill to watch the sunset.

Great place close to home to relax and get away for the day.

Sunset Bay not only has a lot of different things to do, but the space to do it in.  There are well-designated spaces within the park to gut fish and look stuff up in an interpretive center, and beaches, picnic areas, sand volleyball courts and hikes just outside.  We biked in and didn't miss a beat.  Bring your drone.  The only issue is that you feel a bit packed in at the sites.  There are a few out-of-the-way spots, but in most, you might be negotiating with your neighbor as to where the borders lie.  This place was built before giant SUVs came around.  And everything's right by the campground roads.  So - it's hard to gauge how respectful your neighbors are on a night-by-night basis and how much the in-park stuff gets overrun by crowds.  That said, the large vistas and deep green ('make your trees look like happy trees') will ensure that you'll have a good time.
