"The location was great and the amenities were superb."

"Very nice campground close to the coast. Sits on a cliff, so it’s a bit of a walk down the main road, down/up a hill. Worth it! Sound of the ocean is magical."
"Beach located down below for long walk but most people drive down and park and walk. Great dog beach. Near Sunset, Cape Arago, Shore Acres."

"The adjacent park has plenty of green space, a boat launch, a playground, picnic tables and restroom ( very family friendly)."
"If you're quick enough on the draw, you can rent a yurt from most Oregon state campgrounds. These sell out fast though so if you want a bit of glamping, plan it out in advance."
$22 / night
"The lake is SO cute and we walked the path around it several times which morphs from dirt to roots to packed rocks to sand."
"You can hear the dune buggies off in the distance which makes it feel close to home without being disturbing."
$39 - $186 / night
"I needed to spend a couple of days on business in Coos Bay and the Sun Outdoors site turned out to be very convenient!"
"Short walk to the beautiful dog friendly beach (just over the sand dunes - two minutes). They have crab nets you can borrow and a crab cleaning and cooking station to use."
"Nice and close to Bandon. No trouble accessing in our midsize suv. It was muddy at the site, and unfortunately, those before us left a lot of trash. Did my best to clean up when was left behind."
"Needed a last minute to car camp that was close to the coast, found these dispersed sites online and figured it try it out."
"Stayed here last night in free space next to Regular RV park but right on the Water and even had a picnic table with grassy area. Away from the traffic very quiet. And a short walk over to Casino."
"Shuttle or walk to casino if you want. Host switched us to a better site no problem."

"I am a big fan of the Oregon state parks. This one stands out. The park looks like it was done by a landscape architect. Kudos to whoever designed this place."
"Much larger than the rustic yurts available in other Oregon State parks, the deluxe yurt had acres of space. The kitchen had an almost full sized fridge, a microwave, and a sink."
LegendLocated 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.
GuideSpinreel Sand Camping is awesome if you're an ATV enthusiast. Do NOT expect it to be quiet and/or serene if you camp here, but DO expect this riding area to be one of the best in Oregon. Also, expect to pack out what you pack in, and be sure to have a generator, air compressor (you WILL need to air down to get in and out of the sand camping areas), propane, and water for dry camping if you are bringing an RV. Dogs ARE allowed. You can ride from the northern-most end of Spinreel all the way south to Coos Bay (you can literally see the bridge to Coos Bay at the end of the dunes). This will take you most of the day, unless you're a hardcore rider/ATVer, so there is LOTS to see here, including beach riding access! There are a TON of lakes in this area, and a big variety of trails, hills, and open dune areas. Since this is national forest, alcohol is prohibited in sand dune camping areas. Beautiful riding area, though, for those who love it! I rate it an 8.
ScoutThis is the cleanest, most well-maintained KOA I have ever Camped in. It’s family and pet friendly with a well-maintained playground area for the kids and an enclosed dog park for the pets. If that’s not enough consider this: it has a dedicated ATV riding area for the Littles - no big kids/no big ATVs - and is a perfect spot to teach young kids how to ride. This campground has full hook ups and Wi-Fi that actually works! The camp Staff & employees are extremely friendly and helpful. It boosts a small general store on site as well as being located right next-door to an ATV rental shop. The ATV rental shop also has parts, accessories and fuel! Did I mention that it has great access to all the wonderful dunes? If you are an ATV/UTV enthusiast this KOA is for you.
ScoutEk Creek Campground was a pleasant surprise. Nestled among the giant sand dunes and high OHV (dune) areas of Coos Bay area, sits this well placed campground that has large spacious and private campsites. Most sites contain a drive thru entrance with tent pad sites placed within large buses for privacy. The camproudn has a new flush toilets with sink & handdryer. We stayed 3 days and extended our stay by one night because we enjoyed it so much. Lakeside is a nearby town that has a Dollar General and small store that has most anything you need in a pinch.
There are a dozen or more lakes for fishing, water sports, and hiking. Horsefall beach & OHV area is the nearest beach, about 10 miles (?) Away.
For a national Forest campground on the Oregon Coast, this and Alder Dune Campground are by far my favorite. Well worth the $22 / night to have a guaranteed place to.camp on the coast.
TravelerVery nice staff. Good clean RV Park. Charleston is a major homeless people region and the park has no gates. Hence, the wanders come in a lot. Security is good and do a lot to help. We call twice in the eeek stay. Really good guys. Crabbing g was good on docks close by. Clean showers and rest rooms. Fish cleaning room is awesome! NO RENTAL BOATS IN COOS BAY ORCHARLESTON!
LegendExcellent campground. Mix of full and partial hookups, tent sites, horse camp, and yurts. Very clean campground and well maintained. Beach is about 1 mile walk from campground. Lighthouse is about 3 miles from campground. Town of Bandon is right over the bridge about 3 miles. Restaurants and stores. Coos Bay 45 min north.
GuideGreat 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!
LegendWe had an excellent time here. We had just spent about 3 weeks exploring washington and got some serious amounts of rain as we made our way down to oregon. The rain cleared and we ended up here. It was amazing to get a nice hot shower in...and a long one at that.
This campground has arrangements for just about everyone. RVs, tents,hammocks whatever you got they will take you here. And make you feel right at home. Coos bay and the surrounding beach area is absolutely wonderful. We spent a few days exploring and were glad we decided to stop when the rain broke. If your camping for longer than a week or van dwelling like me i would suggest only stay a day or 2 and make your way inland to the odeon redwood trail. There is free camping in there that is also wonderful and no one is around. Around sunset bay state park there is hiking, biking, surfing, fishing, disc gold, swimming and just about anything else your looking for.
Cheers!
TravelerI needed to spend a couple of days on business in Coos Bay and the Sun Outdoors site turned out to be very convenient! Decent sites with good room, OK bathrooms (some were trashed with sand and the water was at best luke warm in the bathrooms. Pretty pricey to stay here, so when I needed to add an extra day they had plenty of spaces.
