Best Campgrounds near Ophir, OR

Sites fairly close together but shrubbery divides most sites. Above average shower and bathrooms. Able to access Oregon Coastal Trail from the grounds.

Typical, well maintained State campground.  Sites are spread out, bathrooms are clean.  Close to hiking and other area attractions (although not on the beach).  Easy access from the highway.  Only downside is that it is close to the highway with a little noise, but nothing too obnoxious.

Cruised in here just after dark without a reservation - was trying to book as we were driving and then lost reception and went in anyway. Park-like, well-maintained campground in upper loop, didn’t get to the lower loop but bookmarked it for the next time - walkable to the beach from those sites. Several sites available, and there was a WiFi connection at the check in board that made the required online reservation easy. Camp host came out to make sure everything was working okay, even though it was technically after hours for her - super nice. Our spot was a little tight for negotiating a 20 foot van, anything larger would be a challenge but we saw those there too. Great bath/shower setup with restrooms on one side, 4 separate showers on the other. Park staff was friendly and helpful. Only downside was proximity to 101 - truck traffic with air brakes went on intermittently until about 10pm and started up again before dawn. The campground sits pretty much under the highway by location - visually you wouldn’t know it, but the audio is a reminder. Not a big deal at all given all the other positives. Great spot.

Beautiful views of the ocean and Beach. Our site c3 is large, shaded and very clean upon our arrival.

This was a real treat on our Coastal trip of Oregon. Nestled back along Cape Blanco near the lighthouse we were tucked away in the trees and a hike away to the ocean. Take a short drive down the road and you’re at the light house with some beautiful spots to hike and see the rock formations in the ocean.

Stayed in a cabin and it was beautiful. The front porch provided a fabulous view to the Chetco River. 

If you fish and don't have a trailer or camper these cabins are perfect. Fire ring and table are provided as well. 

Well worth the price.

Super happy with this cozy little campground. Good size spots, very clean, nicely maintained, nearby hiking in the redwoods, and a river right next to the campground. Recommended!!!

We stayed one night here during a trip down the Oregon coast. We have a 37' TT, it was a little tight trying to back in, our neighbor across from us was gracious enough to move his truck. The sites themselves are very spacious, with a picnic table and fire pit. The sites were surrounded by blackberry bushes which was cool.

We did not use the bathrooms, but the park and the outside of the facilities all looked clean, and they also had cabins available near the river, which was so peaceful!

This was the best state park we have ever stayed at! It is in high demand, so you have to book out in advance if you'd like to stay multiple nights. We were able to get 2 nights, but had to move sites

We have a 37' travel trailer, and had no problem backing in, and the second night had a pull through site. The sites are spacious with a fire pit and picnic table, and room for a second vehicle. The second night we were closer to the beach entrance which was nice, but the highway traffic was a little loud.

The bathroom facilities were the cleanest I had been in at a state park, and each campground had park hosts who were very helpful and actually clean the sites up for turnaround.

Our favorite part was the private beach, with a creekside that is a little more tame for little children. Would love to come back!

Camping at Rambling Redwoods offers a unique experience, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in nature, surrounded by the majestic Redwoods. The campground provides a variety of amenities, including a playground and horseshoe pits, as well as a dog wash area for your furry friends. Well-maintained bathrooms and showers featuring good water pressure—a welcome comfort in the great outdoors. The availability of a laundry room adds a touch of convenience to the rustic camping experience. We were in site 31 which was a very level dirt pull-thru and parked our truck between two huge trees. My only negative thought is that the back of the site only had a couple of logs separating sites 31 and 30. I may not have felt this an issue had the people at site 30 kept their dogs on a leash which would have prevented their three dogs from coming over and trying to attack my dog. Yes, the park has a leash rule. When planning a trip to the Redwood State and National Park, mapping out your destinations is crucial, as some attractions can be quite a distance from the campground.

The sites themselves aren’t very private, but we knew what we were getting when we booked the campground. It was an excellent spot to explore the Bandon area, with beautiful beaches a short drive away. We enjoyed the clean showers and restrooms.

We loved having a playground right around the bend that the kids could enjoy, and the hot water showers were clean and tidy. The sites themselves offered little privacy, but we knew what we were signing up for when we booked this campground. We wanted a base to explore the Redwoods NP and the beaches nearby, and Harris Beach State Park worked nicely!

When I booked this, I was under the impression we'd be able to see the Ocean from the park. Don't get your hopes up. Only certain spots actually get that perk, and "premium" sites like the one I reserved are not among those that get a view. In fact, we were more than a little confused that the "premium" site we paid good money for landed us right next to the dumpsters and sewer station. Our "lawn" area between us and the nearest neighbor was a narrow patch of powdery dirt and dying weeds. From where we were, it looked like all the camper spaces on the Southeast end of the park were in the same situation. Zero shade, zero green grass, and campers wedged as closely together as the law allows.

The activity room in the lodge building was a plus. The kids had a blast playing ping-pong, arcade games, and foosball. We arrived at about ten minutes til 4pm, and the gal working the counter took every effort to communicate that to us as clearly as possible that we needed to leave by 4. If you want to have fun up there get an early start.

The showers/bathroom were nice, albeit in desperate need of ventilation.

This area of the OR coast is beautiful and there are plenty of things to see and do. It's not so touristy as the northern OR coast, and not as populated as the central OR coast. The beach is probably a 10 minute walk from most sites, which is okay unless you want to take chairs, picnic basket, etc, then you'll be driving to Ophir beach, which seemed to have its share of recreational smokers and the kind of "pilgrims" you tend to see along the 101.

My main problem with Honeybear was the price. We paid a premium price for a spot that ended up looking nothing like the photos I was looking at.  There were no trees or shade, no ferns or other foliage. It was just a patch of semi-flat dirt. Walking through the park I did see a lot of far prettier spaces through the grounds where there were lots of trees, or an ocean view so I'd highly suggest you do your research before reserving a space. Avoid spaces 74 and up, unless you're fine camping in a parking lot.

Full disclosure: I did book this spot 1 month before our arrival date, so there wasn't much left at that point… that's on me. Even so, the term "premium" just feels like false advertising to me.  Premium price, yes. Premium location, no.
