This is the best RV resort that I’ve been to. This is what got me into RV camping.
Traveler
Beautiful RV resort. Amazing amenities, clean, large spots full hook ups with cable, spotless bathrooms and laundry area. Awesome little out buildings to sit and relax when it’s raining or windy. They even had a Peloton!!! Dog friendly beach. Can get very windy.
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

I went with a group of five ladies to visit Cape Perpetua for a weekend and we absolutely loved our stay at Washburne. The campsites are forested with a cute creek that runs through the whole area. There are showers, flush toilets, and plugs in the bathrooms. There are two open grass areas for sports and a sandbox for kids too. Its a short drive from the coast and offers full hook ups for RVs as well as an inexpensive area for tent camping. Though it was under repair at the time, we were able to set up our tents at an RV spot (without hookups) for the same price as regular camping. Its all family run here and quaint. Only a short drive from Strawberry Hill, Thor's Well, Cape Perpetua, and Yachats.
Guide
RV resort for sure. Beautifully landscaped and right on the bay. All paved roads and level sites that are back in and pull through. It's a busy place so tough to get a reservation unless you book way ahead. Walking and bike path surrounds the park. Close to the small community of Winchester Bay that has a grocery store and restaurants. Just a great park.
Legend
We showed up here in early June with no reservations and had no problem getting a spot.
Oregon State Parks now charge a 25% surcharge for non-residents for RV / hookup sites.
Tent/non-hookup sites are only $22 (whether resident or no), and electric/water sites are $35 for Oregon residents and $44 for non. There are no sewer hookups here but there's a free dump and water fill at the entrance. There are water spigots throughout the campground.
The RV loops are more like your basic crammed in RV park sites, with all sites closely in a row. The two tent loops, H and I, have a nicer feel, more spaced out, more trees, and quieter. RVs are allowed to camp in tent sites, and no generators are allowed (yay!). There is some tree cover but there are plenty of sites with enough open sky so you can use your solar panels easily.
Showers are really nice, and free. They are set up in individual units, which I prefer.
The trails to the beach are nice, but were really swampy when we were here and the mosquitos were really aggressive (bit me through two layers of clothes!).
There's a cool disc golf course but we didn't get to play, mainly because of the mosquitos.
Campground is close to the cute town of Newport.
Overall we liked it here.
ATT phone had good coverage. Verizon was usable but weak, but the cell booster helped.

When we visited, there were three sections to this facility: an RV Park, an annex, and a dry camping area with plans to expand in the future. When we first pulled in and I saw the price of $31.96 per night, I thought it was very reasonable but then I discovered that was for the dry camping area, which was a paved parking lot, so you are paying for a parking space; depending on how crowded this gets, there is NO privacy or separation. Note - I believe these rates have increased since our visit.
The rates for the Marina RV Park are $72.64 per day (including full hookups). The discounted rate for the annex is $53.28 per night. There are discounts for Good Sam and veterans. No tents are allowed.
The staff person in the office was very friendly and answered all my questions. The restrooms and laundry room were exceptionally clean. After the office is closed (or if you do not want to walk through the office), entry is via a keypad. There is also a public restroom nearby.
There are great views of the marina and the Yaquina Bay Bridge and Rogue Ale’s Brewery and Restaurant is right next door. There is also a public fishing pier, but WiFi is limited. The beach is nearby. At the end of April, there were many open spots, but I was told that the place completely fills up in July and August. We passed on this one but it would be convenient for area activities.
RangerStaff went above and beyond to get us and our pups a place to stay during COVID19 when all state parks require 24hrs notice and no walk-ins. They have full-hook up RV spaces, tent camping on the beach, and a lot next door for tents as well which is where we stayed in our truck camper. Super clean and spacious bathrooms and showers. Security on site. Water at every site. Very quiet. We could hear the waves from our site. Short walk to the Ocean...you’re on Bastendorff Beach...great for surfing and long walks with the pups.
GuideThis is a typical Thousand Trails and was a bit of a challenge to navigate. Narrow roads and hard to find a space. We did enjoy the location and its proximity to the dunes and the beautiful coast of Oregon.
Scout
Secluded campsite options, great walking proximity to the dunes. Rated for its utility for camping / hammocks / primitive adventure. Rating does not concern RV hookups, bathrooms, or electric.
Guide
Between Waldport and Yachats on 101. Always full - reserve early. The beach is right there. Sites are separated by trees. Hosts on site. One big bathroom with showers. One smaller bathroom. Tent and trailer/rv hookups. No sewer dump on site. Closes for the winter.
ScoutHands down one of the best RV parks we’ve stayed in. From the huge clean bathrooms to the saltwater pool, the pavilion, the office, the rental airstreams, and even the fire pits are amazing! We are going back for sure. Didn’t want to leave. Plenty to see and do even during Covid! All the sites are great. The bay front sites are preferred for the view. The cabins are unreal. They really took the Standard RV park up a whole bunch of notches. If you’re into rustic campgrounds, this isn’t the place for you. If you like modern architecture and clean camping, then book a visit.
Guide
This place was just okay. The best part is its proximity to the gorgeous Oregon beach. We were able to ride our bikes right from the campground to the beach and then go for miles. The campground, however, is nothing special. The plethora of full-time campers really cheapens the place but that seems to be what you get at Thousand Trails these days.
Guide
The website was not kidding about not following the directions through Google Maps. The last 9 miles to the resort was really trying - the roads were narrow, twisty and winding. If you are probe to car-sickness, go slow. I took extra precaution and dabbed essential oils on myself and my children.
Our pull-through site was in the Upper Marina, #22. If you have an extra canopy for camping, I'd suggest you bring it. It got really HOT when we were there. The good news is once the sun sets behind the trees, around 6pm, it makes eating dinner at the picnic table so comfortable and cooling.
My husband and children perused the bathroom/shower facilities which was just across from our campsite. He said it was spacious - a shower + private bathroom + sink setup and wide enough for a family.
Access to the swimming beach/boat launch is just a short 3 minutes walk. You just have to exercise caution because you will be crossing a main road (cars and big logging trucks rumble along often enough during the week).
The swimming (sandy) beach is cosy (read: tiny). There are no lifeguards on duty but enough trees offering shade for parents/families to sit back and keep watch.
You would have to drive back 5 minutes down the road to visit the Lodge for supplies or ice. The Lodge also provides some light refreshments* (deli sandwiches and ice-cream).
Our site offered full hook-ups including cable (limited channels). WIFI* was a disappointment though - we had to create an account for a complimentary hour of WIFI usage every day. Together with the zero cell reception, it renders us completely off the grid. It's great really to totally relax your mind and body but it is worrisome for that what-if's scenarios.
*Ice-cream was very pricey for the single not-generous scoop in a plastic cup that we bought for each of us. Because of the steep prices and WIFI availability (you have to pay if you want to get connected), I could only give a rating of 3.5/5 stars.
Otherwise, we had a great time at the RV resort. The sites are appealing for huge family reunion (we witnessed such a reunion during our trip). We will be back! 😊
We are a family of 4 (2 young boys with no pets). We traveled with a travel trailer.
GuideThis is a Thousand TrAils campground and well maintained. The campground is divided into a north and south side. We stayed on the south side with concrete pads that were nestled in between trees. We were here during significant rainfall and appreciated not being in mud. Most sites have trees or shrubs for privacy. The showers were immaculate as was the campground. Camp staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.
Guide
This is a very large (160 spot) campground with RV hookup and tent sites. There’s a great day use area as well. Bathrooms are clean and showers are available. Great place to stay. Just read all the other reviews.
Scout
I’ve been coming to the Winchester Bay RV Resort for over 30 years. It is , by far, my favorite place to camp on the OR coast! They do not have tent sites, but if you have an RV, you will love it! It’s nestled between the marina and the Umpqua river heading out to the ocean.
TravelerSo, the place is an RV resort. There is a pool, hot tubs, rec center, (weak) wifi, a gate with a code to go in and out, same for the bathrooms. It has been very enjoyable.
The bathrooms are so clean and spacious and they don’t feel crowded or gross. The showers are 10/10.
TravelerLong term stays only
ScoutThis RV resort is beautiful, very peaceful and convenient to all the activities of the Bay Area. Check-in was quick, easy and polite with an escort to your site and assistance in setting up if needed. The park is clean, quite and offers several amenities, indoor pool, exercise room, laundry room and delivery of wood, ice etc, to your site.
Scout
Great water access for boating, canoeing, kayaking. No privacy between spots. There is no dog run or horseshoe pits as advertised. Seems more for long term visits than a short visit.
Scout
This campground has multiple beach front campsites with amazing views of a sandy, surf heavy part of the OR coast. Short driving distances to Yachats (check out Yachats Brewing for incredible food, kombucha, and fermentables of all sorts!), Cape Perpetua, multiple state parks all make this a great spot to stay. All sites have picnic tables and fire pits. Many sites that are off the beach also have full rv hookups. My favorite place to stay. Site 17 is nearly perfect! Every site is a less than 5 minute walk to the beach.

Traveler
Easy 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.
ScoutThe campground itself is pretty typical of Thousand Trails. There are only a few sites that are FHU, one of which we stayed in after moving from a no sewer site after a few days. There are, however, grey water disposals throughout the park. When we were there, they were unusable because the water in them wouldn't drain. The rangers advised us not to use them and to dump stuff in the toilets. The toilets near our first site were closed for maintenance, so it was a trek to dispose of grey water.
We did have someone steal a full 5 gallon gas can which was not locked up while we were there. Our neighbors had their propane tank stolen. The Rangers indicated that they do have people who walk through the park and take things, mostly bikes. Locking up things is a must. We used the pool, the hot tubs, and the main lodge showers, all of which were nice. We will definitely stay there again. The Rangers were helpful and professional. They charge $5 per package delivery if it is RV Parts or Medications.
ScoutLots of smaller sites that are full hook ups but if you just need power water there are nice big sites.
TravelerRight on the bay. Private beach access. Indoor heated pool. Fire pits & picnic table at each site. Full hook ups at every site. Cabins & Airstreams available.
