Best Campgrounds near Blodgett, OR

Located in the heart of coastal Oregon, Blodgett provides access to several camping experiences within a 30-mile radius. The region includes established campgrounds like Fir Ridge Campgrounds in Blodgett itself, along with several options extending toward Newport and Alsea. Marys Peak Campground offers tent and RV sites with basic amenities including picnic tables and vault toilets. Big Elk Campground provides primitive tent camping opportunities with limited facilities. Many campgrounds in the surrounding area support mixed accommodation types including tent sites, RV hookups, and in some locations, cabin rentals and yurts.

Camping availability fluctuates seasonally throughout the Blodgett area, with several campgrounds operating only during summer and early fall. Marys Peak Campground typically operates from May through September, while others like Alsea Falls Recreation Site maintain similar seasonal limitations. Road conditions vary significantly, with many forest service roads requiring higher clearance vehicles, particularly after periods of heavy rainfall. Cell service becomes increasingly limited when venturing into more remote camping locations away from main highways. Some campgrounds require advance reservations, particularly during peak summer weekends. According to one visitor, "The tree cover was perfect. Even when it rained a little, we still got to enjoy a campfire without getting soaked. It really felt cozy and protected under the trees."

Campers report high satisfaction with sites that offer water proximity, either along creeks or with ocean access. The developed campgrounds near Newport provide amenities including showers, drinking water, and in some cases, electric hookups, making them suitable for family camping trips. Smaller, more remote campgrounds like Big Elk offer a quieter experience with fewer amenities but greater privacy. Several visitors mentioned appreciating the mix of forest and water features available at campgrounds throughout the region. One camper noted that "Being so close to town makes it an easy place for people to go and get rowdy," highlighting that campgrounds closer to populated areas may experience more noise and activity, while more remote options provide increased solitude but require additional preparation.

    South Beach State Park Campground

    South Beach Oregon SP

    Large campground with tightly packed spots, but clean and quiet at night. Showers were nice and hot. Good access to trails and nice walk through the dunes to the beach.

    Albany-Corvallis KOA

    Nice campground - beware of rd noise

    Great campground with nicely spaced and well maintained sites. Clean restrooms, laundry and pool on site. There is a small playground too. Close to Corvalis but you do get a lot of road noise. Would come back if passing through the area.

    Beverly Beach State Park Campground

    Loud, lack of privacy, but great access to the beach

    This is a great campground for families with young kids, but not ideal if you're seeking a quiet escape. I loved the quick walk to the beach and the amazing fossil beds all along the cliffside, that very highly enjoyable. But I found myself pretty irritated back at camp due to how close the sites are to each other and a general lack of etiquette. I didn't see one group of campers in the A loop who didn't have kids, so the vibe was very much that of a playground everywhere including directly in front of my site. A parent played a game with their very loud kid in front of my site that inevitably included throwing a frisbee into the site, and not apologizing for coming into my little area. Basically zero acknowledgement that I existed from any groups around me, I thought it was pretty inconsiderate, but perhaps I was the one out of place. And maybe I got unlucky but that neighbor who came into my site was a gentle parent type who let the kid, probably 7, throw huge temper tantrums without intervention. At one point the kid decided he was annoyed with the sounds of other kids playing down the way so he started screaming to mimic them, which the parent allowed to go on until the kid felt like stopping. I fell asleep to the sound of not one but two separate families playing card games in their tents, sounded like we were all camping together. 

    Despite no fireworks signage everywhere, families were setting them off on the beach…and in general people were extremely loud, hooting and hollering. 

    Bathrooms and showers were gross, I could tell they weren't serviced enough for the huge amount of people using them. 

    Perhaps I was there on an unlucky day, or got a poor site. Perhaps there's better experiences to be had here! But...not coming back unless I really need a place to stay because there's not much option in this area.

    Namastay Right Here Coastal Haven

    Slug Haven

    This is a great spot if you're in need of an easy escape from the campgrounds world. Didn't plan ahead like we did they probably are available! Privately owned land with two flat spots (named: Light & Sublime) carved out of their mountain haven - long distance views of the ocean through the woods + ocean sunset experience! No rite rings just a simple carved out location to spend the night. $45 cash (preferred) the Slugs came out to greet us in the morning - slugs are a good omen for us so they bring us a lot of joy.

    Armitage Park & Campground - a Lane County Park

    Beautiful campground crappy host

    Almost every camping space has an electric outlet, water hookup and its own septic hookup if you an rv camper. Tent campers can use the hookups as well if you want to. Sites are clean and well managed and within walking distance to the river. Tho tent camping is aloud the host seems to dislike tent campers and talked to me like I was trash very disrespectful.

    Hebo Road

    Good Spots Up the Mountain

    The exact coordinates for this spot are in a no camping zone so I wouldn’t recommend making the drive all the way up to it.  We camped off of the paved road on the way up the mountain off one of the dirt roads. Not a bad spot though but saw plenty of people. There was a bear in the morning which was cool.


Guide to Blodgett

The Blodgett area sits in the foothills of the Coast Range, characterized by densely forested terrain with elevations ranging from 300 to 3,000 feet.

Many camping locations in this region have limited amenities and cell service disappears quickly as you venture away from major roads.

What to do

Fossil hunting at beaches: At Beverly Beach State Park Campground, visitors discover abundant marine fossils. "Nearly every rock and cliff face is littered with marine fossils of varying types and sizes and you can often find individual fossilized shells that can be collected," notes Erik C.

Mountain biking trails: The forest roads and trails near Alsea Falls Recreation Site provide excellent mountain biking opportunities. "Mountain bike trails close by," mentions MeLinda W., making it a destination for cyclists looking to explore the Coast Range terrain.

Kayaking calm waters: Hult Pond offers a peaceful paddling experience in a unique setting. "The pond was great for kayaking and there is plenty to explore if you aren't worried about a little elevation in your hike," says Nicki G. The pond doesn't allow motorized boats, making it ideal for quiet water activities.

What campers like

Forest seclusion: Marys Peak Campground offers a remote forest experience that campers appreciate. "This is one of the closest campgrounds to Corvallis. It's fine, nothing fancy about the campground. Setting is wooded but not a ton of privacy across the CG," explains Ben M.

Riverside sites: Campers at Alsea Falls enjoy the proximity to water. "Sites are large and spread out, but it is a small campground. Road is close but not a lot of traffic. Best sites seam to be on the end loop," reports Dawn K., highlighting the campground layout.

Access to hiking trails: Big Elk Campground provides convenient access to the Corvallis to Coast Trail. "Only official campground along the C2C Trail... About a dozen campsites, plus a hiker-biker area. $10 for an individual campsite. $5 per hiker/biker," explains Michael, detailing the practical aspects of staying there.

What you should know

Seasonal weather changes: The Coast Range experiences rapid weather shifts. At Marys Peak, "the winter does close this early, depending on the amount of snow that falls... Can get cold at night since it is at a higher elevation and weather changes quickly," warns Sonja O.

Road conditions: Many campgrounds require travel on logging roads. At Hult Pond, "The access road is a still functioning rock quarry road that hosts a never ending parade of old rattling dump trucks and loaders," describes Jacob P., highlighting potential driving challenges.

Bathroom facilities: Facilities vary widely between campgrounds. "Two pit toilets and potable water available. The area is well-maintained. There is no cell service in camp or along most of the 60-mile C2C (Corvallis to Coast) Trail," reports Michael about Big Elk Campground.

Tips for camping with families

Choose campgrounds with activities: South Beach State Park Campground offers family-friendly amenities. "This park has all the basic necessities from their main store for things that you might have forgotten or need restocking. The park also has things for the kids to do like a basketball court, a pool, walking trails, putt putt golf which is pay to play ($1)," notes Gabe L.

Expect bugs in summer: Bug protection is essential for comfort. "Mosquitos were bad this year so bring bug spray. Also make sure you book a head because it always is booked from June to October. Family friendly, and close to the beach," advises Brian C. about South Beach State Park.

Find educational opportunities: Some campgrounds feature learning experiences. "Nice educational programs for kids. Firewood conveniently available," shares Kristen W. about Beverly Beach State Park, making it suitable for family camping trips.

Tips from RVers

Check site dimensions: Tillicum Beach Campground has specific size limitations. "We had reserved space 46 based on a good review and then realized that we are too long for that site. 30' means 30' (total, truck AND trailer) SO, we drove around the loop and backed into site 14," explains Kelly H.

Consider road access: Some campgrounds have challenging access roads. "We have a 38 foot rv. We got stuck in a ditch. Rv almost tipped over trying to u turn… if you go down the main lower path you will find a area big enough to u turn! Dont do it until then!" warns Dillon & Soren A. about Hult Pond.

Plan for limited hookups: Many smaller campgrounds lack full RV services. "Our site had water and electricity. There is a dump on site. Our site seemed roomy, but there is a lot of traffic with the over 200 sites," notes Kellie T. about her stay at South Beach State Park.
