  Cape Lookout State Park Campground

  Yurt for late spring, Tent for the Summer

  I camped twice at Cape Lookout this season - in June in a yurt, and in July at the campsite right behind the dune.  

  In June, it was freezing, rainy and windy, and the yurt was fantastic. The most amazing feature of the yurt was the heater. It really kept the place warm, and the yurt was spacious. We were 3 adults, and could easily have slept another one or two. Each yurt has a small patio as well as a fire ring- and inside was electricity and a power outlet. Best of all, you were still just steps away from the sunset on the beach.

  For camping, there are so many different kinds of sites at Cape Lookout - Sites closer to the entrance are very woodsy, the sites closest to the beach frontage (behind the dune) are very very open, and sites along the furthest perimeter are a little more spacious and some have trees (important to note if you want to hand a line or a hammock!)

  We camped at the site right behind the dune where the beach access is. It was a little noisy since everyone passed our site on the way to the beach, but very lovely to be just steps away. Each of the tent sites has a fire ring and picnic table. In both June and July when I visited there was no fire ban.

  Hiking is great in the area. You're also close to Pacific City, Jacobson's Salt, the tunnel at the Oceanside Beach, and Tillamook if you're staying here longer and want to take day trips outside of the State Park.

  Recommend booking early for summer campsites. The yurt I booked in June was available for booking same day.

  Nehalem Bay State Park Campground

  SPECTACULAR wildlife all around

  [ PROS ]

  • We came during offseason (November) and camped at this State Park for 3 nights. Man, it was so amazing. It was super quiet and empty so we felt like we had the entire park to ourselves.

  • A family of deer visited us every single morning/night during our stay. We definitely didn't try to interact with them, but they were comfortable to roam right around our site which was a really magical experience

  • Nehalem Bay is such a beautiful area and the State Park is nestled in lots of beautiful, lush greenery. There are lots of birds, plants, and other wildlife to observe. We loved hearing coyotes yapping in evenings from the campground.

  • It's very peaceful and serene here. It's right by the beach and an easy walk to the coast. We also got to visit Manzanita for a little day trip and had lunch out there. Such a cute little coastal town worth checking out.

  • Free hot showers and really nice restrooms. I'm starting to realize that Oregon State Parks are SOOO much superior to California State Parks. The amenities at all the Oregon campgrounds I've visited are wonderful. We definitely got spoiled by camping in Oregon that it will be hard going back home to California

  • Very close to stores, restaurants, and gas stations if you need to pick up supplies.

  [ CONS ]

  • While it was a beautiful campground, the sites are rather small and close together. We obviously didn't experience this campground when it's crowded, but I can imagine how packed it would feel.

  Devil's Lake State Recreation Area

  Great spot close to Portland, a lake and the coast

  Great campground with lots of trees for privacy and the lake is lovely with lots of fingers that lead off the main lake so you can find solitude on the lake when fishing or just bobbing around.

  There are ten Yurts for rent so if you're not up for tent camping the yurts are nice. Note there is only one pet friendly yurt and it books up quick.

  Nehalem Bay State Park Campground

  An RV park with great yurts

  Mostly an RV park tucked into the Nehalem Bay peninsula, this does offer a couple dog friendly yurts and some very friendly camp hosts. A great place to tuck in on the Oregon Coast with good walks, and a short walk up to Manzanita for good bars and shops. We went in early Spring and had a lovely time. Check it out!

  Nehalem Bay State Park Campground

  Peaceful Slice of Heaven on the Pacific Coast

  Really cool atmosphere just steps away from the beach. The sounds of the waves can be heard right from your site. Nice facilities. Yurt is highly recommended and sleeps 5. Really liked that each yurt had its own deck, picnic table, and fire pit. The shrubbery around the campgrounds was really cool and offered extra privacy. They also had equestrian sites as well as tent and electric RV. Cannot wait to go back my only regret was that we couldn't stay longer!

  Devil's Lake State Recreation Area

  Yurts/Tent

  I stayed in one of the dog friendly yurts that they offerend at Devils Lake, and had a great time. It is very nice, and well maintained. You can either set up a tent, stay in a yurt, or bring your camper. The campsite is not too far from town, and walkable distance to the beach. You also have a nice path back to your own lake! Not a lot of people crowd the lake either, so it is a lovely getaway!

  Nehalem Bay State Park Campground

  gem of a park for mixed use

  we’ve lived in oregon forever but never visited this park. rv spots are nice and level but not much privacy between spaces. very nice setup with yurts right across the drive from rvs in loop a. nice for meeting family or friends with no vehicle.

  there is a two mile bike/walking path through the woods and along the bay. the beach is only a five minute walk away.

  i would imagine that this park is crowded all summer but right now in february it is very quiet.

  Tillamook Bay City RV Park

  Check your statement for fraudulent extra charges

  This place used to be a great place to rent. The host was super friendly and nice. We were regulars who rented yurts a couple of times a year with a group of people. Not sure what has changed, but it has gone downhill. We just rented 4 yurts amongst us and all four yurts got charged a$30 cleaning fee. I don't usually look over my credit card statements and luckily my friend looked at his and told me to check mine. I was also charged twice for a one-day extra car parking and also got an extra$72.48 charge for who knows what. My friends called to dispute the$30 charge which is nowhere on their website or the reservation receipt. We've stayed here for years without such a fee. The only one who got his fee reversed was the one who threatened to get a lawyer. The remainder 3 of us had to dispute the charges with our credit card company since Bay City RV Park would not reverse the charges. If you've reserved recently, go check your bill and get for cleaning fee charge reversed. We will never reverse from this place again and hope to prevent others from being overcharged.

  Great location, great people and fairly quiet.

  Especially if you’re a hiker/biker this campground is incredible. The areas are clearly labeled and yurts are available. The bathrooms are clean and there ida playground for families.

  Cape Lookout State Park Campground

  Great, clean, dog friendly campsite!

  I LOVED this place! I was really impressed with the closeness to the beach and how secluded it was. Although that could be due to it being January. After being wind blown but having a blast on the beach it was great to walk back to our yurt and warm up. When we arrived there was already an air purifier and the heater running. It was super cozy in there. Both my husband and I slept like babies on the beds - don’t forget your own sleeping bags though of course.

  I was impressed with the sweet smelling restrooms and hot (free) shower. Everyone was quiet and respectful and masks were required in the restrooms and facilities and such. One of the nicest yurts I’ve stayed at!

  This is a well-run and nicely appointed RV site with clean showers and rest rooms and an excellent laundry facility. Yurts are available. Campground rules are extensive, reasonable, and rely on common courtesy. A very nice place just north of Tillamook on Hwy 101.

  Great place to try yurt camping

  We tried a yurt with our dog and had a great time. I highly recommend this site. The beach is a 5 minute walk with plenty of space to play and stroll. Also check out the South Trail for a fun but sometimes muddy hike.

  Sunset views from your tent

  This campground is one of my top five faves. Right behind the dunes, bathroom with showers, shady spots and sunny spots, just right for any season. Yurts and cabins - you’ll be able to book if you’re fast enough. It’s an always booked out gem at the pacific coast!

  Easy beach campground

  There is not a lot of privacy, as the spots are close together, but this is still one of our favorite places.

  The yurts are great for months where weather is unsure.

  You are located close to town and good grocery/coffee shops/bakeries.

  And the beach access is super close.

  great experience

  I was thrilled with the privacy of the sites at this campground! There were sites that we quite secluded, but the park still offered loads of activities lead by staff or hiking and beach going. The facilities were clean, warm, and individual. The yurts looked like a unique camping experience as well.

  Beware!

  My daughter reserved and paid for a yurt there and then ended up having to cancel. She followed the policy for cancellations and per the policy should have received a refund. She has called and left VM and sent many e-mails without a response. As of today she has still not received her refund and it has been over a month. Beware!

  Absolutely beautiful!

  I fell in love with Nehalem Bay State Park. We stayed in a pet friendly yurt and in laws were at a RV spot. The beach was just a short walk over the sand dunes. The walk to Manzanita was a nice and very dog friendly. We also walked around the spit. I highly recommend making the short drive to Kelly’s Marina for fresh crab.

  A great spot right near the beach!

  Looking for a great spot where you can camp and hear the waves this is it. I went in the cooler time so it was pretty empty which was nice. Still pretty foresty though has yurts as well. Nice facilities and a short walk to the beach. Also a great place to start before doing the cape lookout hike. Seems like a place that would be busy in summer.

  Cape Lookout State Park Campground

  Complete n' Easy

  Cape Lookout is right on the coast and has something for just about everyone. There's an amphitheater, showers, backpacking sites, cabins, yurts, summer interpretive programs, covered group areas, a great beach and a a roughly 6-mile round-trip hike that puts you 2 miles out and 400 feet over the Pacific Ocean. I stood amazed at the views and, staying quiet, noticed migrating whales. The beach is windy, wild and unpretentious. The crashing waves at night should drown out most loud campers, allowed pets and somewhat nearby traffic.

  Camp with Horses!

  We've stayed at Nehalem Bay State Park several times and always enjoy it.  In the past we have camped in our tent and we've also stayed in one of their cozy yurts.  This time was a first for us because we stayed in one of their primitive horse camp sites in our van, and had the opportunity to ride horses on the beach!  The campground has a ton of amenities and is located adjacent to the beach, bay and just minutes to Manzanita or Nehalem. Planning to return again soon!

  We love Devil's Lake

  We have been to Devil's Lake many times.  We have tent camped in the summer and stayed in the yurts during winter break.  It's a great campground.

  The entrance is right in Lincoln City, so you're close to lots of things to do as well as stores to shop at if you forgot any supplies.

  There's both the ocean and the lake nearby so there is plenty of recreation opportunity.

  The campground was closed at the height of the pandemic, but it is open for use again and filling up for summer.

  Definitely recommend.

  Beautiful beach and multiple campground options

  Beautiful beach and multiple campground options from cabins, to group camping, to large tent sites, to yurts! The beach is only a walk away. There is also an off leash dog area and picnic areas for large parties and weddings. Clean campground and beach. The showers are clean and hot - great friendly staff. We return every year!

  CAPE LOOKOUT HIKE - see photos! Plan to be out in the train for 3-4hrs. The hike is not long, but there are plenty of FUN obstacles along the way like roots, bridges, and many views. You can often spot whales in March-May.
