  Anderson Park

  Looks like long termers, cluttered, run down

  I had researched this park quite awhile beforehand and was interested based on the reviews posted here. It looked pretty nice. Unfortunately when we were able to preview it by driving through I was surprised to find out it was not at all what I had seen in reviews. This place is on the edge of a small town and it looks like it is occupied by long term tenants with a lot of paraphernalia and personal belongings strewn about. For us, traveling for vacation and sightseeing it would not be a place we'd wanna stay. We did have dinner and really enjoyed it in the little town of Vernonia where it is located and that was great. The park is also adjacent to a fantastic walking biking trail and it's next to a city park.

  Well maintained

  A very nice campground, close to Portland. Well maintained, bathrooms were the cleanest I’ve seen at a campground.

  Nice park for biking

  Very nice campground. Large, clean sites. Lots of hiking and mountain biking trails within the park and a regional rail to trail runs through it.

  I really appreciated other Dyrt reviews that said the shadier, more private sites are numbered below 40. We were in 38.

  The walk in sites in Dairy Loop surround a meadow, so less private. The other walk in sites on the other side of the visitor center are very sweet. Just little sites carved out of the woods. They are a longer walk from the car and have a pit toilet instead of flush. But very sweet.

  so amazing!!!

  this was so awesome.. we used the walk-in camp sites that had been closed till the moment we asked after closing due to a tree falling in one of the bathrooms.. so me and my friend were the only ones out there.. but the walk in and out is nothing but a hill. but that was a small price for the beautiful seclusion. I doubt it will ever be the same when I go back..

  Jones Creek

  Overall A Very Peaceful Experience

  Campsites are spaced well apart with lots of room in each site. Bathrooms are nothing special. Make sure to bring water shoes down to the river -(It’s super rocky). Phone Service is super bad so be prepared to go off grid!

  Clean, beautiful, and a nice getaway

  We really enjoyed this state park. We were tent camping in November, so we knew what we were getting into. We reserved a full hookup site and packed heated blankets (site had electricity) and plenty of blankets. Overall the park is very clean, well maintained, and very quiet. Lots of hiking to be had. Would recommend bringing bikes along if you have the chance. We’re definitely planning on coming back during the summers months. The biggest bonus is that it’s really close to the metro area. It was a 30 minute drive for us.

  One of the Better State Parks

  As we had been here before, it was an easy drive in on US-26 to the campground (CG). What we didn’t do was read our 2019 review on whether we needed to stop at the park building that sits down the hill from the main road. The way it looks from the road, there isn't any RV parking, but as we rolled past the exit, we saw there actually was RV parking. The next road happened to be our loop, Daisy Creek, so we went ahead and backed into our site, 52, with FHUs. The pad starts with asphalt and then goes to gravel, where you actually park the rig. After setting up, we walked down to the park building, and the rangers had just opened their check-in windows. Since we were pre-registered, we could have printed out our confirmation email and placed that on the dashboard. However, they gave us a rearview mirror tag so we wouldn't have to print off our confirmation. The water and sewer hookups were in the middle of the site, with electric being at the back of the pad. The water pressure was not very good at around 35 psi. We had a clear shot to the north sky for Starlink, but it's doubtful we’d get a southern sky shot from this site due to the mature trees. We got 3 bars LTE on Verizon. There is a good variety of sites for RVs, large and small. There are also tent sites to include a walk-in tent area near the main building where you register. Since we were here last time, they now have an off-leash fenced dog area. What makes this CG so special is the multitude of hiking, biking, and horse trails. They even have a disc golf course within the park. The CG is close to Portland, but you'd never know you were that close to a major city.

  Really nice campground

  We stopped here on our way south from Washington. Had a nice stay. Campsite was so clean, even the gravel was raked. Plenty of room at each campsite. Bathrooms were old but very clean and well kept. Showers were also very clean. Camp hosts were very nice and helpful. Some nice hiking close by. I would definitely stay again.

  Well maintained, great for cycling

  This campground is adjacent to a couple of really awesome bike paths, so I parked here for day use. I haven't camped here YET but I thought I could add some photos! The camp host was professional, and everything was pretty clean.

  Very nice but busy

  A beautiful park among dense forest. Full hookups are available only on the main road into the park so expect lots of traffic. ATT has good signal here, Verizon has poor and T-Mobile has none.

  Nehalem Bay Trailer Park

  Great spot!

  Nice river view, coin op laundry, free showers, wifi. Peggy is an impeccable host! We would definitely stay again. Location of resort is not where app indicates. The site is off North Fork as you come into Nehalem. We stayed two nights in the overflow and it was lovely.

  Quick getaway from Portland

  The campground is the newest in Oregon as of this time. As such, the trees are still immature and very exposed. I’m pretty sure we had one of the nicest spaces in the park. There are two large loops, this one had trees and shade - really hot that weekend. Large level grave pad for parking and pitching a tent, as there was not really grass for the tent.

  The upper loop was very exposed and it was more like an open meadow on a hillside.

  There’s lots to do with playgrounds for younger kids and frisbee golf for all. Many hiking trails to explore. Perfect for newer campers as it has wide roads, large back in spaces, and level lots. I wish it had a river or creek as water always adds a little something to three trips.

  Nice washrooms and showers with lots of hot water.

  About 20 min drive into Vernonia where there are plenty of quirky little stores and history to explore.

  Beverly Beach State Park Campground

  Perfect camping in the woods

  The 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!

  Great location. Luckily we were in a minivan and not a tent, small tent spots, so make sure you check first. Very close sites. Clean bathrooms

  Coastal Waves for Days!!

  The sound of crashing waves on the ocean was the constant background sound for this family and pet friendly campground. Park Rangers are very friendly and helpful with any issues with your site. Our electric hookup stopped working one morning and was fixed before lunch by rangers. Campground has beach wheelchair check out available for free during your stay!!

  Hares Canyon Horse Camp — L.L. Stub Stewart State Park

  Bobcat nights.

  When we came back from the shower my wife and I observed a dark shadow darting from the table around the back corner of the tent. Figured it was a raccoon or something. Half an hour later I went behind the tent to get a Pepsi, and there it was, a cat. A bobcat to be exact. I yelled at the cat for some time it wouldn't leave it sat there and stared me down. My wife and I took turns holding a light on it. Eventually I threw some gravel at it and it ran away.. I thought. We were cooking dinner about 5 minutes later and I turned around and the damn thing was behind us. We tried calling the state park the Rangers and anyone else who would listen, but they wouldn't. There was no one to call. When I dialed the park ranger I got Oregon State Park Services which was closed. Seeing Wildlife like that up close is really cool. But I'm from the country and I know what to do, kind of. A lot of people would have needed assistance, probably from people with firearms, just to get their camping gear back out of that campsite. All in all it's a nice park though showers are good and hot and clean. The Park host is always around when you need a bag of is always around when you need a bag

  Close to beach, close but shielded sites

  Big campground with sites nicely shielded from each other with foliage. Lots of shade, full hookup and clean showered and bathrooms. Beach access is close the lower the site section alphabetically (A-H). Short walk under arch bridge to the beach. Full hookup.

  Clatsop State Forest Northrup Creek Horse Campground

  Quiet secluded forest camping

  We had the campground to our self midweek.  This is a wonderful campground far enough off the beaten path and being listed has a horse camp most likely keeps the crowds down.  While this is a horse campground, only 8 of the sites are for horse campers, a small tent/RV camping loop of 3 sites is also available, but the parking pads are small so don't think most RVs will fit in the spots.  Each campsite has a picnic table and metal fire ring.  Nice flat ground for your tent with plenty of shade from the large trees.  Campground has a hand pump for water.  Dish wash stations are through out the campground for pouring out you dish water.  The horse camp sites all have corrals for the horses.  Nice hiking trail starts at the tent camping area, "Big Tree Trail" will take you past some monster sized trees.  This will be a campground we return to the next time we visit Oregon

  Clatsop State Forest Northrup Creek Horse Campground

  Quiet and (mostly) clean

  We stayed on Sunday and Monday nights and had the entire campground to ourselves. Not all of the tent sites can easily accommodate a larger tent. Toilet paper was found on the edge of our campsite, but that seemed to be the only trash around. Pit toilets were very clean! Big Tree Trail for hikers was well maintained and we took the opportunity to splash around in the creek. We will most likely be returning to this campground.

  Clatsop State Forest Northrup Creek Horse Campground

  Clean and quiet!

  Wow, what a hidden gem of a campsite. While primarily a horse-friendly campsite, there are few RV/tent sites, but definitely not friendly for larger RVs. My 2001 Tacoma with a RTT was perfect, but I don’t think the sites are built for large-ish RVs. The scenery around the campground was gorgeous, the bathrooms were clean, there were trails one could take to explore around, and the road in was in great condition. Overall, I highly recommend this site. There were even water dump spots for kitchen water.

  Great location

  Campground is very large with over 200 spaces, restrooms very clean as well as showers.

  Camp sites are VERY tiny, most tent sites are barley big enough for a tent, picnic tables are so close to fire pits that they could catch on fire, the RV sites are very tight and people have issues getting their trailers into sites. Open year around, very busy park, reservations need to made most time months in advance.

  Beach access is very close.

  HEY!!! It's in Vernonia

  The camp is run by the city and it is very clean. I've seen boyscout troops come through on packs of bicycles and single joggers on the Banks Vernonia trail which is easy and scenic. The trail comes through camp and you can walk anywhere in town from camp. Grocery, laundry, several good restaurants and shops.

  Busy, Loud, Little Privacy

  This was one of our stops on a camping trip along 101. The facilities were good, but it was very crowded with almost no privacy. The sites were super close together. The campground was loud as a couple of the loops go right up under the freeway. The beach was ok, but there are many nicer beaches along the Oregon coast.
