4 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Premier RV Resort at Eugene houses luxury yurt accommodations among its glamping options, making it a standout destination for visitors seeking outdoor comfort in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park Campground includes furnished yurts with comfortable bedding, electricity, and heating systems for year-round glamping experiences. Both locations offer more than standard camping, with Premier providing resort-level amenities including a swimming pool, hot tub, and well-maintained facilities. The Royal Heart Hill property features specialized glamping accommodations with electric hookups and private fire rings surrounded by natural forest settings. Each glamping site includes picnic tables, access to drinking water, and shower facilities, elevating the outdoor experience beyond traditional camping. One visitor noted, "Royal Heart Hill has a great property to explore, but is surrounded by public lands to explore too!"
Trails wind through the wooded areas surrounding these Eugene-area glamping destinations, with Royal Heart Hill offering hiking paths that lead to a serene pond ideal for nature observation. The property features handcrafted wooden furniture made from local trees positioned near fire rings, creating comfortable outdoor living spaces that complement the glamping accommodations. Premier RV Resort's proximity to Eugene (approximately 10 minutes north) allows glampers easy access to city amenities while maintaining a retreat-like atmosphere. Honeyman State Park's location near coastal dunes provides glampers with opportunities for sandboarding, hiking, and fishing at nearby lakes. According to a camper, "We loved the tent/trailer camp spot on Carly's property. It was quiet and peaceful and we were able to disconnect and relax for a couple of days." Most locations require reservations, especially during peak summer months when these distinctive glamping pods and dome-style accommodations book quickly.
"There are activities right on site: horseshoe pits, playground, half court basketball hoop, small dog park (small is referring to the size of the park, it's for all dog sizes), and rec room. "

ScoutThis is a great spot. All the staff have been very friendly and helpful. They keep the place immaculately clean. Lots of great views with free hot showers, playgrounds, and firewood delivery. Just about anything you need right on the beach with jetty access all around.
ScoutThis rustic park is perfect for year round camping. New to trailer camping and love the river views, the trees, the easy access and closeness to town.
GuideIt would be 5 stars if it was not for my experience. That should never have happened. Park Host admitted she should have evicted vicious dog owners. $2k vet bill, I have a broken pinky that is still open and they wanted to do surgery on. No supervisor has called me. Barely an apology. So if you want to take those kinds of risks. Also they DO NOT honor online reservations. They allow people to stay who are not paid up and take sites that have been reserved online. Management needs to step in! This could be a 5 star park if managed at all. What happened to my dog and I could have been a child, killed. But they don't seem to care?
GuideI lived in Sweet Home for 30 years. It's fun visiting in my RV, but this place is quite silly. Very noisy log trucks coming and going. Let's call a spade a spade and stop being silly.
Four pages of rules. They are terrified of being sued. So don't use the pool cuz you certainly can't have fun. Not allowed to leave your dogs in your RV is a big surprise rule. You should have ALL of your rules posted on your website. Not hard to find and a very small list.
I've been to lots of RV parks now. You are just like them. I would think a resort would be quiet, peaceful, room to spread out, and have a nice time. This is crammed, like everywhere. Very noisy. Uncomfortable to even try to explore the "resort" as there are many rules and signs posted everywhere. Reminding you what not to do. And cowgirl or cowboy? I'm just shaking my head over this stuff.
A real world look at what someone experiences here might benefit your customers but I'm sure you are raking the money in. So no worries. I cannot imagine how tourists feel when they come here. It is nothing like your website. I already knew but I thought people DESERVE HONESTY. NOT LIES. Not a resort. A park next to a very noisy mill across the street from a lake. No fires. No tables. No dog area except one which is camera monitored. Very uncomfortable place to be.
RangerGood rest rooms and showers. Dump station is working and included in fee for campers. Close to old town Florence for shopping / eating experience. Non-Oregon residents pay higher rates. Otherwise, concur with other more detailed prior reviews. Would stay again.
GuideThis dispersed campground allows a 14-day stay. Paved roads and a good variety of sized campsites. I found a cemented level slab to park my trailer on, however, this was the only site with a cemented structure. Lots of blackberries to pick, and very nice place to hike with your pets.
GuideSweet campground! Pit toilets were closed but portos seemed to be cleaned weekly, and appeared clean. Notably, Roy is a wonderful camp host!! Had a lovely stop here. Great view of the lake. Lake view spots seem to be closed when the lake is low but still wonderful views from across the way.
GuideThis campground is operated by Lane County (Oregon). For $30 / night, it offers electrical (30-amp) and water hookups (threaded spigots). There are free showers in the recently remodeled bathroom facilities. The campground is located on a cliff overlooking the outlet of the Siuslaw River as it empties into the Pacific Ocean. The setting is absolutely beautiful, and the campground is meticulously maintained. The campsites are situated between dense bushes and ground cover that provide excellent privacy between campers. Harbor Vista is close to downtown Florence (but not too close), so shopping and dining options are easy to come by.
TravelerWe stayed at this campground for 4 days as a family gathering.
It's close to the coastal town of Waldport if you need supplies.
Vault toilets were clean, the campground host hovered a bit as we had many extra vehicles and she wanted to be sure we paid the fees.
Other than that, its a nice place to stay on the Alsea river.
Yurt camping near Eugene, Oregon offers a blend of forest and riverside experiences throughout the Willamette Valley and surrounding areas. The region sits at elevations ranging from 430 to 800 feet above sea level and receives an average of 47 inches of rainfall annually, creating lush, green landscapes. Water access varies significantly between campgrounds, with some riverside locations requiring caution due to swift currents during spring runoff.
Trail exploration near Whittaker Creek: This BLM-managed site provides access to the Whittaker ridge old growth trail connecting to the Armantrout loop trail for a 3-mile circuit with 900 feet of elevation gain. "The old growth trail didn't appear to be very well maintained so I didn't hike it since I was afraid of ticks. I walked the paved roads of the campground and went over the foot bridge where the creek was," notes one visitor to Whittaker Creek Recreation Site.
Fishing along the Santiam: The river access at Waterloo provides multiple fishing spots with a dedicated ADA fishing deck. "Great little spot for a family get together and overnight stay... On the river good fishing... but be aware... current is swift.. swimmers seem to get in trouble every year here," warns a camper at Waterloo County Park.
Sandboarding at coastal dunes: Rent equipment for around $10 daily at Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park Campground for an affordable adventure. "We rented sand boards for $10 a day and had a blast sand boarding. Really fun trip," shares a visitor who rated their experience highly.
Pond access at Hult Pond: The man-made log pond offers a unique swimming and recreation area where kids can explore safely. "Decent camp ground... I went during my spring break and I was lucky that it was too cold for most people to camp there. It was beautiful and quiet (other than the 9pm daily goose choir). The pond was great for kayaking," notes a camper at Hult Pond.
Clean facilities at Premier RV Resort: The well-maintained resort provides amenities that appeal to those wanting comfort while glamping. "Nice big sites, super clean park and facilities and nice staff. I personally stay in all sorts of locations, but usually stop here for a couple of nights to take advantage of the great stores in Eugene to stock up before heading off for more primitive camping," explains a visitor to Premier RV Resort at Eugene.
Water activities at Dorena Lake: Swimming and boating options make this a popular summer destination. "The view was wonderful. We got a lakeside camp site which made it a simple walk down to the lake where we could swim and fish. The camp ground had a pretty big bathroom and separate shower room," reports a camper at Baker Bay Campgrounds & Marina.
Cell service limitations: Many campgrounds in forested areas have limited or no connectivity. "We lost cell service about an hour before we even got there, and didn't have any the whole time there. There are some really cool spots that were taken. Would come again, but there's no cell service at all so I'd plan accordingly," warns a visitor to Hult Pond.
Highway noise concerns: Some RV parks near major roads can be noisy throughout the day and night. "The only downside is that it's right off I-5 so lots of freeway noise," notes a Premier RV Resort camper.
Seasonal restrictions and closures: Many campgrounds in the region operate seasonally. "Whittaker Creek is a medium size 30 site, BLM, first come first served campground encircling Whittaker creek, where it meets the Siuslaw river," explains a reviewer, with the site only open from late May through early September.
Yurt options for rainy conditions: Winter camping in a yurt provides shelter while maintaining an outdoor experience. "We went in the off season (in the winter) so the campground didn't have many people staying- most being in RVs and us in a yurt. I have a toddler and it ended up being so helpful with the weather being a bit rainy and getting some creature comforts while still enjoying nature," shares a camper at Honeyman State Park.
Playground access: Several campgrounds feature play areas for children. "The campground has a playground for kids, a small free library and ranger station with a couple of souvenirs of the area," notes a visitor to Honeyman State Park who stayed in a yurt with their family.
Swimming safety considerations: Parents should monitor water conditions, especially in rivers. "There is a little boat dock. Stocked lake. Rental kayaks and swimming hole. One of our favorite places," reports a visitor to Baker Bay Campgrounds.
Site selection for privacy: Choose locations away from main roads and entrances when possible. "The sites are really close together. We didn't have neighbors on either side of us, thank goodness," notes a camper who visited Eugene Kamping World RV Park.
Dump station availability: Plan for sewage disposal needs based on your stay length. "There are recycling bins here but they don't specify what they allow. It's just the generic blue toters that say 'recycling.' With fees, etc our stay was $49 for a water and electric site. FHU was just a few dollars more, but since the dump is free for guests we went that route and saved a couple of dollars."
Road access limitations: Some campgrounds have tight turns that challenge larger rigs. "This campground has nice, fairly separated sites. The roads are paved, majority of sites are pull through, photos on Dyrt are accurate. We had a 30 amp site and all of the utilities were well maintained and arranged well," explains a reviewer at Premier RV Resort.
