Hubert K McBee Memorial Campground

5 ReviewsAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Hikers and anglers will find Hubert K McBee Memorial Campground well-suited to a creek-side stay in the Coast Range foothills outside Alsea, Oregon. The campground sits directly on the trail connecting Alsea Falls and Green Peak Falls, and at least one site has the trail running through it. Sites are large, set under old Douglas fir, and positioned close to the Alsea River, giving campers direct water access without a long walk.

Amenities are minimal but functional. Reviewers confirm a vault toilet and trash service on site, along with covered picnic tables. The campground is county-managed and free, though reservations are available by phone via the number posted at the entrance. Signage at the entrance has caused some confusion, with one sign indicating reservations are required while another appears to welcome walk-ins. Cell service is limited in this area, so plan accordingly before arriving.

Crowding has come up in multiple reviews, and the campground draws a local crowd. It is not primarily an overflow site for neighboring campgrounds, so showing up without a reservation during busy weekends carries some risk. The forest canopy provides heavy shade throughout the sites. Tj B. describes it as "a good location and right on the creek," which captures what the campground does best. Campers who want hookups or developed facilities can explore camping near Alsea for a broader range of options, or consider Miller Road Dispersed — BLM Alsea Falls Area for a more dispersed experience nearby.

Nice

Great place to boondock. Large sites in a private campground. A bit difficult to access as two signs give conflicting information. One must call to reserve but another sign says welcome to all...covered picnic tables, outhouses, large sites close to Alsea River under old Doug Fir. Shady and quiet. Hiking nearby.

Describing the amenities of Hubert McBee Park

ThereThere was recently a review I read made about Hubert McBee Park in alsea Oregon about how there was no restroom facilities and or trash receptacles.... And I'm here to say this is absolutely not true they DO have restrooms and they DO have garbage services and it also happens to be a very very nice clean and free local Campground and is not made! as an overflow for alsea Campground goers if they get full up!... just to make that clear so if alsea Campground is full up do not come to Mcbee Park especially if you haven't made reservations first period. I hope this helps whoever still enjoys real rugged outdoor camping like a true Oregonian!🙂

SiteAll of them.

Very primitive

I scouted this park while staying at Alsea falls campground just down the road.

Mcbee park is actually on the trail between Alsea falls and Green peak falls. One of the sites has the trail going right through it.

The sites were very large and some had some old shelters and tables. It is owned by the nearby Hull-oakes lumber company, but is open to the public. It looks like a local spot, but I'm sure it would be a good backup if Alsea falls is fully booked. They take reservations via phone, number found on entrance sign. (See photo)

Be prepared though, there are no services whatsoever, except maybe trash, so all backcountry rules apply. All in all a good location and right on the creek.
