Guide
Staying in one of the furnished cabins. Great RV and Airstream trailer sites as well. Full hookups. Marginal WiFi available. Use my phone most of the time because poor WiFi. Cabins are fairly new but mine had some needed repairs already
Traveler
I 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.
Ranger
We stayed in a yurt over Christmas and the heater in the Yurt did not heat sufficiently. We tried to get it fixed by staff but there wasn’t anyone who could help.
We were near the lift station and the alarm was sounding off throughout our stay. Also no one remedied this.
Guide
We loved this campground. Hiking and fishing at lake 50 yards away, near the light house, Off Highway vehicle park, beaches, super clean, warm showers, and good size spaces.
TravelerClean, well maintained. Love the fog horn in the distance. Nice easy trails, many paved. I prefer a little more space between me and my neighbors.
GuideCamping on the beach can indeed be a hit or miss experience, but Bay Point Landing has managed to create a little slice of outdoor luxury. With its thoughtful layout and comprehensive amenities, it's a far cry from the all-too-common parking lot scenario. The indoor facilities cater to both children and adults, ensuring that everyone has something to enjoy, rain or shine. Indoor amenities included a cash less laundry mat, indoor lap pool, exercise room, Kids den, a game room and another area for adults where happy hour was held including a local musician. The outdoor amenities seem just as considerate, including a playground for the kids, a bowling green and a dog wash with soap provided. The restrooms were clean and the shower where private rooms included the shower, sink and a toilet. Some sites are right next to the bay which did have a sewer smell once a day for about 30 minutes. Not sure if it was when the tide came in or out. We were in site 37 and had good internet access. Be careful following GPS instructions. Both RV Life and google sent us in the wrong direction off the 101. Follow the instructions provided by Bay Point Landing.

We stayed at Bastendorff Campground in August 2024 in tent site 15. Going in, I didn't know much about the campground besides it's close to Charleston and Coos Bay and it has showers. It turns out that all but one of the showers was out of order. The one shower that worked was weak but the temperature didn't fluctuate so it was ok. Overall I was disappointed I didn't make our reservation at Sunset Bay State Park.
Pros:
-Close to nice beaches like Bastendorff and Sunset Bay.
-I got cell reception at our campsite.
-The bathrooms and the one shower were kept clean.
-There is a playground and an open field with a view of the ocean.
-Not many insects in the park; no mosquitoes.
Cons:
-The bushes between the campsites are small and thin and there aren't many trees, so there's no privacy and not enough trees to hang a hammock.
-The loop with the tent sites is right next to Beach Bound RV Park where you may hear the serene sounds of a backhoe scraping up rocks, truck engines, or guys cutting logs with chainsaws.
-The men's bathrooms: the doors on the stalls don't lock and there are no (working) hand dryers or paper towels.
-Most of the showers were out of order.
-There are no gray water disposal drains like I've used at other campgrounds to wash dishes.
-There is a foghorn nearby that woke me up one foggy morning.
-There was trash in the bushes at our site as well as small bits of litter throughout the campground.
-The tent sites are just sandy dirt so when it rained everything got muddy.
-There is no trail from the park to Bastendorff Beach; the beach is a short drive down the road.
-The locals: while we were there in August someone nearby kept lighting off mortar fireworks around 10:00 -10:30 pm, and one night someone drove by honking their car horn.
GuideStaff super nice and accommodating. Lots of trees. Most sites have a private feel. Close to beach. Very nice day use area with awesome view of ocean. Clean. Near Charleston and a nice fish market and other amenities.
ScoutWe enjoyed our selfs.we were close to beach neighbors were plesent as were the host.

Another huge Oregon state park campground. We were in loop H, which is the farthest loop from the entrance. These sites were closer together than the previous state park campground were we stayed, but our site was still fairly private with shrubs on one side and trees on the other. We arrived about 10 minutes after the 4pm check-in time, which was a first for us, and there was a short line to register. People also had to wait for us to back into our spot, but nobody was rude or anything. As this park is inside the Oregon Dunes National Recreation area, it was a point of entry for people to take their ORVs out and run around on the dunes. I was a bit worried that the sounds of motors revving and racing about wasn't going to stop, but it did. The last noise I heard was probably around 9pm. This park is very family oriented and kid friendly. We took our toddler to the playground, which she loved, but there were a lot of bigger kids there who were not being supervised so it was a little bit hectic. We finally had to leave to avoid our child getting bowled over by some elementary age boys who were not respecting or paying attention to other people's space. There was another family with a little guy too who left the playground shortly before us. I realize that the campground/state park can't control what ages of kids play at this playground and all kids are welcome to play there. Just be aware if you have toddler age littles, there is no separate area for smaller kids and not everyone supervises their children. This was a very nice campground and if you are a person who has ORVs, this would definitely be a great destination.

Challenging one lane Gravel Road to get to beautiful Meadow after challenging entrance to golf course with few instructions on how to reach camping area. However, once there it's a beautiful and quiet and well maintained area with numerous sites including a yurt and lots of privacy , Wildlife and Greenery
Scout
Bathrooms were close, also water between every two camp sites. Showers were pretty nice. The lake is absolutely amazing! Really was worth money. It also wasn’t to expensive at all.
ScoutThe best experience for relaxing and recentering!!! Beach at your fingertips! Recommend a little work on shower area but still very doable! I will be back!
TravelerEasy reservation system, had to call a couple times for questions, and staff extremely helpful and friendly. Received an email about 2 weeks before our departure to the RV site that said they had to move our site due to a long term rental that came in. Little dissapointed as we wanted a spot w/more space between sites. But we were just passing thru staying only 1 night, so not a deal breaker.
ScoutA great site for “light” camping, good location, felt very safe and perfect for kids with the playground. Very busy of course given its popularity.
LegendNew park with beautiful landscape and ample space in sites. Would have given a 5 star rating if they did not have a $25 dump fee on top of rate. Did not use.
ScoutThis is a great campground for families with children. Campsites are pretty small but mostly secluded. There is a lot to do in the area. It’s pretty loud during the day from the amount of families and people.
Ranger
We stayed here because no state parks were available in the surrounding area. It was our first time at a KOA, and usually we do not stay at RV parks. The people at checkin were super nice and welcoming. The sites are tight, although perhaps if you pay a premium you can get a water-facing or larger site. The restrooms were a bigger disappointment to me. The only bthrooms are 6 combo shower/toilet stalls for the entire campground. If people are showering there are no toilets available. Also, the bathrooms, while appearing somewhat clean are dated. The white shower curtains and one piece fiberglass shower surrounds were not as nice as some Oregon State Parks we stayed in. The campground was quiet with a very narrow trail down to a beach area on the Alsea river. Our neighbor's picnic table was about 4 feet from the side of our Class B. It was OK, and if you don't mind RV parks, it may be a good stop-over place (which is what we did). We won't choose this place again and will definitely think twice about booking another KOA (even though we bought a package to save 10%). For $83 not worth it in our book.
Scout
Great resort. Wish the store was open until 5 or 6pm. Best pizza.
ScoutWonderful campground with store, coffee shop, laundry, arcade, rec room and best of all is their pizza and pub. Probably the best pizza we have ever eaten.

This campground is on the edge of the sand dunes and it is FULL of Side by Sides and UTVs. They are constantly coming and going
TravelerCamping trip to South Beach Park and enjoyed it great place the first night it drizzling rain but the weather changed and it was sunny for the rest of the week camped until the 7 and enjoyed
TravelerThis campground is very clean, wonderful hot showers , and over all great
GuideThis place is close to Florence , it has nice showers and clean bathrooms, little noisy on the day time but if the noise doesn’t bother you can fully enjoy the wonders of this place.
ScoutATTENTITION ALL RILEY RANCH CAMPERS. The Mill Casino is now offering Free Shuttle Service from Riley Ranch Campgrounds Thursdays thru Saturdays!
ScoutArrived late and was able to find our site quickly. Very quiet and relaxing.
GuideNice campground on the small side. Some of A loop backs up to the 540 highway, but it isn't super busy or noisy. Facilities are old and clean. Access to the beach would normally be really easy and we went earlier enough in the season, the trail under the highway was flooded so we had to walk along the highway instead.
