Darlings Marina and RV Resort

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Boat rentals, dock diving, and on-site smoked BBQ make Darlings Marina and RV Resort a water-centered stop along the Oregon coast. The marina sits on a lake outside Florence, Oregon, with RV sites that face the water and flat, level ground throughout. Guests can rent boats or kayaks directly from the marina, and day-use boat loading is available for those trailering their own. Deer have been spotted moving through the property.

Sites come with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer, plus WiFi and access to three bathrooms, two of which are private. The resort also has a small market stocked with ice, beer, and fishing supplies. One consistent note across reviews: sites are closely spaced. Jodi D. describes it as "can hear my neighbor's conversation as if they we on my RV," which is worth weighing for campers who prioritize privacy. Noise enforcement is reported as minimal.

The on-site restaurant draws repeat visitors. It serves smoked BBQ, burgers, and draft beer, and one reviewer noted the burgers won a local award. Rooms are also available for rent beyond the RV sites, and the resort is dog-friendly. Nearby alternatives include Woahink Lake RV Resort and Fish Mill Lodges and RV Park for campers comparing options in the area. Darlings works best for RV travelers who want marina access and on-site amenities and can manage close-quarter sites.

Vacation | Friends

What a wonderful place! For camping, the RV sites are flat, the views amazing, the bathrooms clean, shower great pressure. We loved eating dinner at the restaurant every evening: really good smoked BBQ, burgers, amazing waiters, great beers on tap. Very reasonable prices. Water access for those staying at the marina was fabulous. We rented a boat, which was easy and the boat great for a 2 hour adventure on the lake. We loved diving in from the end of the dock. Lastly, the staff and owners were great! Food& drinks: BBQ smoked on-site. Delicious! Lots of beer, wine, hot chocolate, coke products available. Great hamburgers and restaurant! And awesome staff!

Tight spaces but a beautiful vista

The sites are very tight. We had few neighbors the first night but when our neighbors arrived we lost our view and did listen to them all night by the fire. The man in charge was a bit gruff with us when we spoke with him about the tightness of our spot. He seemed very agitated and annoyed to even have to discuss it.

Ugh

Location is on lake that is nice but that is about it. Camp spots are cramped.. I estimate about 5 feet apart. Can hear my neighbor’s conversation as if they we on my RV. Can hear music from a couple 3-4 spots down. No enforcement of noise hours. No open play area. Not great for kids.

Wake up with a view of Siltcoos lake

The owners, Rich and Lori Olson, treat you like family. When I first bought my trailer they even helped back it into the site. Rich and Lori, and their sons Cajun and Chase are just as helpful and polite. Their site and food prices are very fair. The food in the resort is top-notch and their burgers recently won a local award for best burger. I tried it and I agree. Two years ago the lake flooded their lower, lake view campsites and they had it completely fixed and better than before as quick as they could. There are three bathrooms on-site, two are private and one is public. The also have a little market with ice, beer and camping and fishing supplies. Extremely dog friendly! Boat and kayak rentals, Day use boat loading available. In addition to RV camping, they also have a few rooms for rent as well.
