"The campsites are horse friendly and the trails are absolutely gorgeous- it felt like being out in the wild."
$10 / night
"This is a great small campground for those close to Corvallis.
It is easy to get to, just a windy road. The winter does close this early, depending on the amount of snow that falls."
"Setting is wooded but not a ton of privacy across the CG.
Mary’s peak hiking is incredible. The peak is the highlight, unbeatable views. There’s also great old growth forest trails."
$7 / night
"Last campers left pit and firewood- will leave some more for the next. We listened to another review and headed left when the road split up near the top and took that first site on the right."
"There were others around here and not a huge amount of site options, so be weary of spaces filling up. Lots of forest and greenery surrounding the area!"
$15 - $30 / night
"Very quiet and camp spots were perfect distance. Plenty of restrooms. The stream has some swim sections, but not entirely. Bring water shoes!"
"I usually stay at Cedar Grove nearby, but stayed here this year (2020). The campground is clean with water sometimes available."
"Two pit toilets and potable water available. The area is well-maintained. There is no cell service in camp or along most of the 60-mile C2C (Corvallis to Coast) Trail."
"Only about 10 sites here , the camp host was very nice and sold us firewood! Not a very busy campsite but it is pretty!"
"The grounds offer two pit toilets; that were kept very clean, water bibs, dish water dumps, along with fire pits and picnic tables at all sites."
"Tall trees, dense greenscapes, long, well-marked switchback trails and a wide, long wall of whitewater that is Alsea Falls."
$15 - $20 / night
"I showed up around 3pm on a Friday and was barely able to find a walk-in tent site. All the car-accessible sites were taken and the only reservable site is the group spot."
"There are many river acess points, the forestry center, walking trails and wildlife all within walking distance. The campsites are on a first come first serve basis and many of them are pretty big."
GuideThis is one of the most primitive campgrounds I've seen. There were a few old picking tables, fire rings, and one vault toilet. We were the only ones there during the peak of camping season. There were lovely flowers and raspberries growing nearby. A few dead branches feel during the night, which was a little underling.
LegendWe 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.
LegendNo lake views here, but there is access down a long point/dock for non motorized(kayaks) boats. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the campground was super clean. Best part was the No Generators rule!!! It is kinda loud as you are really close to the highway and on the edge of a busy town, but if you can get a tent site in the tent only area (towards the back with lots of trees) or a hookup site along the back, it’s not too bad. And you can hear the ocean.
TravelerGreat spot for a quick stay. There are only a few flat spots for RVs but quite a few decent spots for tent camping next to the pond. The west side of the pond has at least 2 spots that are a good distance away from the others. At the moment, no fires or barbecues allowed but propane stoves and lanterns are fine. Look for Bandits blue squeaky disk! We lost it and never found it.
TravelerTrask River Campground is 20 minutes away from Tillamook. There is not a lot of service around the area going to Tillamook so go straight to Tillamook town center and start your GPS for accurate directions (or until you get good service). You will have no service whatsoever up at the campground but that’s what camping is for, to enjoy your time outdoors! You might as well get all of your needs in town before you head up, Safeway in Tillamook has bundles of wood for $5.99, for two nights we used 4 bundles (they come with fire starter kits).
There is no showers or sinks but there is multiple “vault” toilets around the campground. For clean water there is multiple pumps around the campsite, bring your own soap.
Nice swing set and grassy areas for kids or pets to run around. If you’re lucky enough you will wake up to elk grazing in the grassy areas.
There is a main road in between the campgrounds since sites go from A-C. People fly up and down that road at 50+ MPH so watch your kids and pets.
Multiple trails and cool things to see around the campground! Enjoy!
GuideThe tree cover was fantastic, it was 85 out in the sun but much cooler at the site. Sites were open but still secluded enough to not be bothered by your neighbors. Sites were large, had a nicely maintained picnic table. Showers were clean and hot!
RangerI am going to try staying here again in the winter, the sites are small and close enough together that in peak summer season it’s pretty darn noisy, the joyful din of summer break.
Lots of trees around the tent sites so there is a lot of shade which is nice. Shorter driveways though so not a lot of room for extra cars. The ADA accessible spots are great, paverstones under the picnic areas and such; very nice.
If you like disc golf this is definitely the place to go, huge sprawling shaded course is very inviting and everyone who was playing looked like they were having a good time. Great destination for lazy bike rides, miles of paved low incline trails. Plus as well, they have a bike tools available as well, a work station for light repairs.
Full service campgrounds, yurt sites have more space around ‘em so it may be a better option for in the future.
Good river and fishing access, lots of low-key trails to explore. Dogs are welcome on leash and there is a designated area for them to romp too.
TravelerHuge facility with a lot of options from basic tent camping to fancy rv.
TravelerThis is Santiam State campground that is for basically tent camping. Water and Pit toilet. Some sights next to Butte Creek. The best part is that you very close to Butte creek water falls.
