Best Dog-Friendly Camping near Myrtle Point, OR

This is the cleanest, most well-maintained KOA I have ever Camped in. It’s family and pet friendly with a well-maintained playground area for the kids and an enclosed dog park for the pets. If that’s not enough consider this: it has a dedicated ATV riding area for the Littles - no big kids/no big ATVs - and is a perfect spot to teach young kids how to ride. This campground has full hook ups and Wi-Fi that actually works! The camp Staff & employees are extremely friendly and helpful. It boosts a small general store on site as well as being located right next-door to an ATV rental shop. The ATV rental shop also has parts, accessories and fuel! Did I mention that it has great access to all the wonderful dunes? If you are an ATV/UTV enthusiast this KOA is for you.

Lovely spot. Best TV park we’ve ever stayed at. Sites feel more like “camping” and less like “parking lot” like many RV places. More open space. Nice dog park too. Tent sites are very spaced out and lovely.

Owners are very kind and welcoming. Helped us back into our site. Sites are large enough to park vehicle next to camper. Picnic area is on cement. Roads in good shape. Very clean and organized. River is right by campground and you can walk by it. Nice dog park. Would stay again.

Very nice campground. Not pet friendly. (No dog exercise area). No ocean views but with in a short drive to the beach.

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.

I have been frequently this campground for 20 years and although a lot has changed in that time this campground seems to stay wonderful. Campsites are nicely maintained and practically on the beach with nearby hiking trails and pet friendly beaches. Campsites are pet friendly and nice sized with fire pits and picnic benches. Bathrooms and showers located nearby and the entire campground is very peaceful.

We love camping by or near the coast. This place was pet friendly. Has some trails to walk on. Friendly park staff. Spaces were definitely good size.

Notice the asphalt spaces were not very level. Most RV/Campers had to use blocks to level out. Very woods sites and all spaces shaded. This site is close to the Eel Lake for boating, and across the highway101 is access to the dunes. But this State park is not gear up for ATV riders. A must to RSVP for the summer. Can get cel service and mobile data service. Park Host clean up sites quickly. On the East side of HwY 101. About 6 miles North to Winchester Bay, and a few more miles to the beach. Pay day use parking of $4 to Douglas County for beach access.

Have 16 yurts, 8 yurts pet friendly.

Have a hiker/biker camp

Shower and restrooms, very clean (no spider webs)

RV dump site, ask for a $3 donation.

Nice campground with good privacy in most spots. Came here without reservations and there was only one spot available which we didn’t fit in in our 26ft Class C. Most sites level and all had fire pits and picnic tables. 

Dump station was closed when we were there.

There are dumpsters and mixed recycling bin (no glass), bathrooms with flush toilets and hot showers. The camp host on site was helpful and directed us to other campgrounds in the area.

$29/night for partial hookup. Cabins are $51/ night, $61 with pet

Hiker/ biker camp, group camping, and horse camping here also. 

Lighthouse is up the road which was extremely windy but campground wasn’t as windy as the trees block a bulk of it. 

Cell service was sketchy, some service but in and out and not strong with ATT and Verizon but no TMobile.

A great place to camp along the gorgeous Oregon coast and everything there is to do in Port Orford. If you are hiking the Oregon Coast Trail, this is a great spot to take a break, or to spend a weekend camping and also enjoying nearby activities. I appreciate the campground has recylxing, and a dog-friendly cabin if you want to stay with your pet. Dogs love the beaches nearby! You are just 17 minutes to fun Port Orford stops like the One Lump Or Two coffee shop (which sells model airplane gear in the front of the shop-- small town quirks!) and Redfish Grill.

One of the hilights of our visit was when we went kayaking with South Coast Tours in the waters off Samuel H. Boardman State Park and you can see some amazing things at low tide, like starfish, sea urchins, harbor seals, and lots of mussels. At higher tides they'll take you through sea caves and some of the arches near Nelly's cove. We also did some really nice hikes. My favorite in the area was down to Secret Beach!

GREGIRY JUNO 3D HYDRO PACK REVIEW

As a Dyrt Ranger, sometimes I get to review camping gear. On this trip, I brought along my new Gregory Juno 3D Hydro Pack. It was really roomy, and in addition to three liters of water also held all the clothes I needed for four days, including warmer, bulkier layers. My sneakers fit nicely in the stretchy front mesh pocket and the generous side mesh compartments were plenty big enough for snacks.

I love how comfortable this pack is, with padded breathable straps and the "vapor span" design to the back that keeps you from getting too sweaty while alao providing cushioning. As a 5'6 size 8-10 gal, I was really pleased with the fit. The bag sits nicely on my hips and stops short of my neck.

The hydro pack is sturdy and easy to use. I do wish this bag had a clearer place to put my laptop for when I'm traveling, but thats really my only complaint. I was pleasantly surprised by how many pockets there are, including an interior zipper pocket with key ring. The pockets are all a bright color that contrasts with the exterior, making it extra easy to look for you things. No dark cavernous interior swallowing your stuff!

Very pleased with my first Gregory pack. Its comfortable and thoughtdully designed in a way that far surpasses my big North Face backpacking pack. I definitely want to get more Gregory products in the future as I replace my older camping gear and invest in new pieces.

This was my favorite campground. The location was great and the amenities were superb. You can tell the developers put money into the property and thought through about the experience - whether you are just camping and having fun or whether you have to work from the road. They offered great wi-fi and office spaces to be used when needed. They have an indoor heated pool, a gym and many bathrooms throughout their property. I believe all sites are full hook up. We Stayed there for 4 weeks as we were traveling through the beautiful Oregon coast with our travel trailer and our pets. We had 3 different sites and it is because we wanted a water front spot for a few days then decided to extend our stay as we liked the campground so much and we could easily go up or down the coast as planned. All of our sites were great and the staff is so friendly and as accommodating as they can be. Their store has great items, they are well branded and they even bring you ice and fire wood if you buy is from them-you can just text them - easy user experience! All of the bathrooms and laundry rooms were well maintained and clean. We were there in July, during the pandemic and things were pretty calm and people were keeping a distance and respecting the guidelines. You don’t have a trailer? No problem, they have a few tiny houses which look amazing and they also have air streams people can rent. It can get super windy at times - there were a few nights I thought our T@b was going to fly away and we were going to look like the cow in twister LOL but thankfully it didn’t! We watched beautiful sunsets from our trailer and walked by the water in the morning and around sunset. Bay Point Landing is a great property and well located. Great drive to a few parks close by. If you are staying there for a few days, go to see the dunes and check out the beaches; it is super pretty. We also made it all the way up to Cape Kwanda, and it was one of our favorite places. The hike to the top of the dune is worth it and the view is breathtaking. If you are going with kids, be careful because there are not a lot of barriers at the top, which we thought it was a bit odd. It is an easy drive to Depoe Bay (north of Coos Bay) where you can see resident whales often. We also went al the way down to Brookings, on the border with California. Beautiful beaches along the way so don’t go in a hurry, take your time and enjoy the beautiful view. We will absolutely be back. We loved this campground!

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.

Oregon does it right! While there are traditional spots for RV and tent camping, the Hike and Bike area was awesome. Each spot is private with a table and fire pit. Showers are included in your fee, the campground is quiet, and there is a nice walk to the beach (dogs are allowed). The campground is well maintained and clean. Very relaxing.

I think this place was great! Super friendly and helpful staff. Short walk to the beautiful dog friendly beach (just over the sand dunes - two minutes). They have crab nets you can borrow and a crab cleaning and cooking station to use. There’s even a little gym here! If you’re tent camping they have a few amazing tent sites right on the beach and a little beach bungalow for rent oceanfront too! I highly recommend this place for your Oregon coast stay.

We have stayed in a yurt and a cabin here with our kids and dog. It was perfect.
