Tahkenitch Campground is a beautiful camping destination located in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, 8 miles north of Reedsport. The campground offers some very secluded sites surrounded by local coastal shrubbery, with some other sites that are more open. Three hiking trails can be accessed next to the campground, leading to Threemile Lake and the Tahkenitch Dunes. Across the road is Tahkenitch Lake. The name Tahkenitch means "lake of many fingers." Fishing here can be relaxing and rewarding.
The adjacent day use area serves as the trailhead for Tahkenitch Dunes Trail, Threemile Lake Trail, and Threemile Lake South Trail. All three trails are good for sand play and scenery. Tahkenitch Dunes Trail goes through a mile of conifer forest, opening onto the dunes with views of the ocean. The trail then enters a smaller stand of shore pine and completes its journey at the Pacific Coast.Boating and fishing are popular at nearby Tahkenitch Lake. Fishing may yield cutthroat and steelhead trout, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.
The campground is within reach of coastal forests, expansive dunes, Tahkenitch Lake, and the Pacific Ocean. Many sites are heavily wooded and secluded, separated by a thick understory. Douglas fir and wild berries can be seen throughout the campground. The lake spans 1,674 acres. Roosevelt elk, pelicans, sea lions, and bald eagles are just some of the wildlife that live in this area.
The campground is a few miles from off-road vehicle trails on the dunes.
For facility specific information, please call (541) 271-6000.
Campsites that are not occupied after 24 hours of arrival time will be considered as a "no show" and sites will be released for others to reserve. If campers will be arriving after 24 hours of their arrival time, they are encouraged to call the ranger station at 541-271-6000 to let staff know.

It is about 2 miles from Florence right on Hwy 101. The yurts are nice. Dunes access is easy. The playground looks like it would be fun for kids. There was a car show in Florence that weekend. Your in a sandy area with lots of trees. As it got dark the wind picked up but it wasn't to bad. If your ADA you need to get a ADA space otherwise the bathrooms can be quite a walk. The trash cans are at the entrance. Very big camp park.
Guide
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. The dog we were watching loved it and I think the yurt was best for him since he'd have been scared of the tent. Only a couple of the yurts are designated pet friendly. A short walk leads to a kids play area and the beach isn't too far away.
LegendI camped here twice this year. Once in June in the Hiker/Biker area, and again in July in a regular site. The experiences couldn't have been more different.
Hiker/Biker is fairly segregated from the rest of camp. The access point is actually before the entry to the main campground itself. My first visit left me surprised at the beauty of the camp. It feels like it is in the wilderness despite being less than a few miles from Florence's cool Old Towne.
The trees here are big, and the ground cover lush with ferns. The trails are canopied by Rhododendrons. Nature paths lead off to Cleawox and Woahink lakes. Sand dunes abut the west side of camp. They seem endless, and otherworldly. At Cleawox Lake day use area there are paddleboats, boards and water toys for rent by the day or hour. Sand boards are available from a temporary space set up in the day use parking area.
On my first visit the entry Ranger station was closed but the Welcome Yurt was open. Maps, advice, firewood, a lending library was available.
Honeyman Camp is huge. When I was there in early June it made for a lovely exploration, and seemingly great spaces between campers. In late July the vibe had completely changed. Each of the several hundred spaces was occupied by a seemingly large family with 5 kids to every adult, or 25 belligerently drunk RV campers who felt the need to blast Fleetwood Mac.
That second visit, in the main campground, made it very clear that your experience here will depend on the quality of people choosing to stay in the same park. All the amenities were the same, but despite it's size, a campsite with stereo speakers set to full boar are hard to ignore even when you're on the other side of camp. Now multiply that by several campsites per loop.
One thing of note: Each campsite is issued a set of rules, including "Quiet Hours". Unlike some other sites in which hosts ignored those rules in an attempt to avoid confrontation the hosts here were on top of it. For as obnoxious as the camp was at 9:45pm, by 10:15 it was silent, and we were able to enjoy the remains of a campfire and view of the stars in the slight clearing between trees.
Amenities include:
Flush Toilets
Hot Showers (free and some without having to keep pushing a button!)
Picnic tables & Fire pits
Welcome yurt
Kids playground
Access to lakes and dunes (Bear sitings on the path to Woahink Lake in July)
Nature Trail
*Pro-Tip: Stop in Old Towne Florence and buy some fresh fish or get a coffee at the local roaster.
GuideThe honeyman national park camp ground was very nice but if you want to glamp then it's definitely the place to go. But otherwise I would keep looking. All in all it was a great stay, near the ocean and lots of people.
Guide
This is one of our favorite campgrounds, very similar to Thousand Trails Pacific City. We stay three nights from June 18th through 21st, 2020, at campsite E136, the stay was free due to our Thousand Trails membership. Our site had electricity and water hook up. The site was level and easy to back in to.
Our site was very private with trees and bushes between our site and neighbors on each side. The E loop bathhouse was two spots down and up a flight of stairs. We were a couple of spaces from the dog run. The campground was at sea level and just a mile or so from Florence, Oregon, and a mile from the Oregon Dunes Recreation area. Once we entering the campground, the campground roads are all gravel, however we found the layout and map to be confusing as we got of directions down.
This is a very quiet campground, activities were minimal due to Covid-19 restrictions. We are looking forward to coming back post Covid-19 to take advantage of the closed outdoor pool, hot tub and clubhouse. The campground had clean showers, plenty of hot water and not more than a 2 minute walk from our campsite.
There are two dump stations at the exit of the campground, easy to maneuver into. My wife and I enjoyed the campground, we took a trip to Heceta Lighthouse for the day, geocached and hiked around the lighthouse.
On Sunday when we were leaving South Jetty we passed Dan and Jen Nevada, from YouTube notoriety. They were arriving at South Jetty and scoping out their site, Jen gave us their sticker and business card. Their Youtube site is https://www.youtube.com/user/flyfishnevada/videos

Not reservable, full hookups, easy access. Walk from the campground to the generally deserted beach, hike the trail to Heceta Head, or kick back. Several camp hosts are always on site. Open all year. Large restrooms with showers. Yurts, hiker/biker area. Located between Cape Perpetua and Florence. The day-use area and dump station are across hwy 101 from the campground.
GuideI love Florence! Just 5 minutes away from old town for great coffee shop under the bridge and great margaritas at the travelers cove and gateway to the coast trails. This campground is great for bird, mushrooms, walks, even paddle bots at nearby cleowox lake. Rangers were helpful finding a spot for my needs: quiet tent site away from the crowd. It does get filled up on weekends with families and some sites more private than others so just ask to drive thru and pick your spot first. Yurts and hook ups available too. State park
ScoutWe flew into Oregon and drove down the coast from Portland. Tugman is more towards the southern end of the Oregon Coast but in and around the Oregon Dunes area. Very nice facilities and we stayed in a yurt there. It was a nice mix of tent and rv camping. Nice and shady spots. The yurts were awesome:)
pro tip—we made our reservations way in advance. I would highly recommend that if you know you’re going to book as soon as possible, 6 months out if possible. We got the last yurt available for the time period we were out there.

For a small campground the deluxe yurts were huge. 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. The shower in the bathroom was not as nice as in the deluxe cabins elsewhere, but there was plenty of towel bars to dry all of your gear on. The small heater had a hard time heating all of the space. The large skylight had lovely star viewing when the clouds cleared. Since it was the middle of the week in February there was no noise from the surrounding ATV area, indeed, no ATVs around at all. The trail around tiny Lake Marie was well drained and not soggy, with several connections to the campground. Our yurt had views of the other yurts, try 19 for a view of the lake yet still dog friendly. The front porch did not offer any shelter from the rain.
TravelerJessie M. Honeyman is an Oregon State Park just a few miles south of Florence, Or.
We traveled in on a Wednesday at the beginning of June with friends, kids, and a canoe. We stayed through Saturday night and moved on up the coast to another site just outside of Newport. The park has a lot going for it -- especially if you have kids -- but it also has some deal-breaker drawbacks. As with a lot of other busy state parks, your experience will depend a lot on when you go, what site you book, and who happens to show up as your neighbors.
Pros: • Very close proximity to Lake Cleawox and the boat house / facilities there. You don't leave the park to go from the camp sites to the lake. At the boat house, you can rent paddle boats ($7 / 30 mins, $10 / hr), canoes, or kayaks. You can also rent sandboards and zoom down the dunes on the far side of the rental facility. The setup is awesome and looks like an idyllic version of everyone's summer camp - real or imagined. • Woahnik Lake, a much larger lake than Cleawox, is right across the street and offers a lot of options for more swimming, boating, and paddling. We saw two large groups of scuba divers while canoeing around the lake. • Sand dune access. You can literally ride an ATV or quad from your camping site to the dunes, because the camp is adjacent to the Oregon sand dunes. • Hot showers. • Super friendly rangers and staff. • Large play structure in the sand for kids. Same thing you'd find in a city, but it's a nice option. • Yurts. We stayed in #316. Staying in the yurts is a great all-weather option.
Cons: • Campsites - tents, yurts, RVs - are crammed in. Some areas don't have good tree coverage (the closer you get to the dunes), and are wide open. You can see and hear your neighbors, so good luck. • ATVs and quads. Because the site backs up to the dunes, it's ground zero for ATVs and quads. You hear them running at peak times on the weekend. The site attracts a lot of giant diesel trucks that idle through the camp site hauling their trailers, so it feels like you've set up camp right next to a trucker super highway.
Given how popular the spot is, the wildlife are very used to people, and you'll be marauded by cunning squirrels and chipmunks. Don't leave food out for a hot minute.
Don't stay in any site off the main branch to all the camping loops. Accessible yurt #404 is probably the best site in the entire campground.
ScoutMy sister and I were road-tripping down the 101 of WA, OR, and CA and making it up as we went. After looking through a list of Oregon campgrounds/State Parks, we settled on Honeyman since it had yurts available and it was forecasted to be a rainy night. The yurt was great and well taken care of. The campground was fairly empty and our site was private, though that was likely because we visited in late November. I would love to go back and explore the dunes and surrounding area more. Great place for an overnight stay and a good alternative to soaking all of our gear before heading further south.
Traveler
Beachside is great. The yurts are the perfect thing for winter or fall camping. We like to go in the winter and watch whales, and staying in a yurt is the perfect thing for the rainy season. Because the weatehr changes by the minute, you can walk on the beach, head back to the yurt during a downpour, and back out when it stops. If you get really cold, you can take a hot shower! Not a crowded feel, even when full. Lovely views.
Ranger
There is a golf course right next door. Well-curated campground. Tent camping available here, but we stayed in a yurt. Yurts do not have much greenery for privacy, but you have walls, so I suppose that makes up for it.
Inside the yurt is a heater, a small table, a bunk bed, and a futon. Fire pit around the side. Hot showers and potable water everywhere. Camp hosts and staff were pleasant.
Short walk to a gorgeous beach and miles of hiking trails! Caution: dogs not allowed in some nearby parks.
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.
ScoutIts a large campground and it's usually booked up year round so reserve in advance! The bathroom showers can be used by pacific coast hikers for a small fee. Bathrooms were clean. Weve camped and stayed in a yurt. Both were great. Checkin was a breeze for the yurt and all staff and volunteers were great.
GuideThis campground is always a safe bet any time of the year. Pets, children and groups are very welcome at this campground with nearby lakes, sand and ocean access. Rent kayaks and canoes at the lake. Visit the rustic and historic log cabin store with a southern exposure and bask in the afternoon sun. Kids can swim in a shallow roped off area out in front of the store with ample outdoor seating. Located near the ocean, this campground is protected from the heavy winds often experienced in other coastal campgrounds. Honeyman has access and a wonderful walking trail to Cleawox lake, where the dunes literally slope right into the lake. Sandboarding is popular on the hillside of the dunes adjacent to the lake. Fishing, non-motorized boating and protection from winds are the plusses at this nearby lake to the campground. Back at the campground, there are many loops for different kids of campers. Those with ATV's, Yurt camping, RV camping and tent camping. The hiker/biker campground is very quiet and private.
The quaint town of Florence is just a few miles north with historic downtown shopping located on riverfront. Locally owned coffee shop, Siuslaw Coffee Roasters offers comfy fireside seating with a view of the river and the historic and recently restored Siuslaw Bridge, designed and engineered by the famous Conde M. McCullough. Downtown Florence offers many specialty gift shops, eateries and fine dining as well as family pizza and locally owned BJ's Ice Cream Parlor with a huge variety of salt water taffy.
Across Highway 101 from Honeyman is Wohink Lake, where motorized boats are often seen pulling water-skiers. A great place to spend the day if you have a large group or have your own motor boat. Lots of sun, swimming areas and parking make this a convenient place to spend a day.
I have found this campground to be completely reserved 6 months in advance. They always seem to have sites available if you arrive early enough. I've never been turned away if I've arrived early.
GuideYou can walk to the dunes or hike around Lake Marie. Gorgeous plants, wildlife, and amazing mushrooms in November. I met a wild turkey by the lighthouse. The campground is a mix of tent and RV sites plus cabins and yurts. There is also a separate area with deluxe yurts. AT&T signal is strong so I was able to work from home during my whole stay, even with constant zoom meetings.
LegendSpecial and unique landscape right in the center of Oregon Dunes. We love it here. Located close to the quant town of Florence. Lots of nearby hikes, beach access, and of course the dunes. Enjoy!
GuideI have stayed here a few times mostly when the kids were younger, but recently stayed here in a Yurt.
Its basicalky a RV type place..crowded sites, no privacy and tons of screaming kids.
Its clean and there are some trails ( one very easy ) to the beach which is quite nice.
The hosts are excellent if busy.
The Yurt was great , but be prepared for the fog horns going off all night on the jetty.
Good for RVs and kids,
ScoutWe have stayed in a yurt and a cabin here with our kids and dog. It was perfect.
RangerWe visited this campground for the second time this past weekend and even in late October it is a fantastic location to go on the coast!
It has tent sites, RV pads cabins and is one of the few locations where delux yurts can be rented.
W stayed in a cabin last time, but that loop is closed for construction until 2019.
This time it was the delux yurt, which sleeps up to 9 people, has it's own bathroom with toilet, sink and shower, microwave, fridge, kitchen sink,TV, DVD player and heater that will cook you out if you want it to. Outside comes with a porch, picnic bench and 4 burner gas grill. Fantastic for group rental! We had 5 adults and it was a ton of space!
The yurts are just up the hill from the lake where you can go fishing and hike the approximately 1 mile long trail.
There is also a day use area with benches and a small sandy beach.
Lover this place!
TravelerGorgeous. Well maintained campground. Close to beach. Popular site for families. Yurts get snatched up months in advance! They all have a magnificent view of the lake.
Travelerrough it or not up to you. Yurts and full hookup sites as well as beautiful secluded tent sites. first come first serve showers potable water and real toilets.
GuideJust a correction, before the rest of the review. There are no sewer hookups for RVs. Only a dump station.
I loved this campground for many things, but the 10-15 minute walk to the beach was my favorite part. We stayed a week.
A couple things of note: Playground for kids in loop C; showers are now open; Yurts are available for $60 a night, and you can park a camper at each yurt, too (just pay extra vehicle charge), and last, Newport is home to Rogue Brewery and within an hour from Monmouth and Salem wineries. Check Groupon for some great specials on these.
RangerThe yurt sites are big enough for a tent also. Short walk to the beach. There are lots of things to visit within a short drive.
LegendGeneral: 54-site campground (plus a hiker/biker camp) that is a mix of water/electric sites, no hookup sites, cabins, yurts, and deluxe yurts.
Site Quality: Camper pads are paved but most are not very long (I don’t remember when reserving if there was a length restriction, but I did not see any large Class As and doubt they would fit in any of the sites). Site desirability varies. We were lucky with Site 43 – foliage provided some privacy, and we had a view of Lake Marie from the back of our site. Most of the sites on the inside of the loop have no separation/privacy between them.
Activities: There is a one-mile hilly trail around Lake Marie, and there is access to the dunes. We were last at this campground 30 years ago with our two young children and remember they had a great time playing in the dunes, however, if people with OHVs were out on the dunes (which is popular), it would not have been good for young children. After fire restrictions on all non-coastal campgrounds we have recently stayed at, fires were allowed, and wood sales were available from 2 p.m.– 8 p.m.
This was an overnight stay for us as we made our way down the Oregon Coast, and we enjoyed our stay.
GuideI grew up camping here. It's a great place. There are yurts, sand volleyball pits, bathrooms, showers, hiking trails, tidepools, kayaking etc. Amazing family camp.
