"We stayed here at the group site and it was great—huge field, winding paths through heavy forest to arrive at a beautiful, sunny lake."

"The sites for the tent are a little walk behind the picnic bench. The site was quiet and surrounded by trees. It was full but didn’t feel like too many people. The hike to the dune was fun."

$22 / night

"It’s the closest spot to the lake. The lake is small but very beautiful and easy kayaking/floating. The campground was quiet and very relaxing. Restrooms were clean."
"Get a site above the lake; great access and just the right amount of privacy. Unlike some camp sites in the area, this one doesn’t have dune buggy noise."
GuideBeautiful view overlooking the mountains. Low traffic but rains a lot and we had a visitor come sniff around but quickly left.
TravelerGreat camping location with lots of private spots with lots of trees and greenery. They have bathrooms and showers if needed. Close to beach and nice to walk around campgrounds with 3 camping areas. Dogs allowed. Very friendly camp hosts. One even gives treats to dogs. Spots vary from all hookups to water/electric to no hookups. They also have tent camping and yurts. Highly recommend
ScoutWe stayed at site A-16 in mid-May and absolutely loved it. Super pretty spot, tucked right next to a little creek. It felt private without being too far off the path — ideal if you want a bit of peace but still feel like part of the campground.
Heads up: the mosquitoes were definitely out (classic spring in Oregon), so bring your bug spray. Other than that, it was such a chill experience.
The tree cover was perfect. Even when it rained a little, we still got to enjoy a campfire without getting soaked. It really felt cozy and protected under the trees.
Shoutout to the camp hosts — super friendly — and the bathrooms were way cleaner than expected, which is always a win when camping.
Also, the location is convenient. You’re less than 10 minutes from town, so if you forget anything (we did), the grocery store’s super close. And Old Town Florence is adorable — great for brunch, dinner, or just wandering around cute shops and bars.
10/10 would camp here again.
ScoutMost immaculate level clean friendly sites and staff
TravelerWe needed just 1 night and was able to find a spot for the night to relax in the woods. Spaces were spacious for our 43ft 5th wheel and truck. Starlink on roof was slow, but was just fin for a relaxing night. Will absolutely come back for a week in the future.
GuideI’m the kind of person that doesn’t like having to call and talk to someone to make a reservation. I love instant book feature! But I saw decent reviews for this place and it was in an area I wanted to visit so I took a leap. The staff were great, very friendly, seamless reservation! I was able to get a spot for the same day for a few nights. I was running into travel delays and their office closes early but they were able to accommodate late night arrival …which turned into the next day arrival, but without issue. They were kind enough to call me in the morning just to make sure I was OK.
This is nothing over the top for RV parks, but it’s the kind of place I would consider doing a long-term stay. The place is clean, quiet, friendly, great location for me to go explore the Oregon coast, dunes, and the Umpqua River. I don’t even know what else is around here, but I’m about to export and have a great homebase.
TravelerOnly little pull offs that I found. Drove pretty deep into the forest and found a dead end spur. When back tracking the next morning I saw a few other campers camping close to where your gps will take you. This was a week day. Probably busier on the weekend.
TravelerI 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 and there is plenty to explore if you aren’t worried about a little elevation in your hike.
GuideThis campsite was everything we needed. We loaded in at night time so it was lovely waking up and being able to see the ocean right along the campsite.
