Best Campgrounds near Ophir, OR

This is one of our favorite campgrounds, but this time we stayed here on the last day of April and so we had to stay in the smaller loop closer to the entrance, rather than the bigger area closer to the beach. The beach side area is closed every winter from October 1- April 30. You can still access the campground and the beach on foot, but it’s blocked from driving through. 

We checked out the hiker/biker sites this time, they are $8/night and have really nice and private individual sites with a picnic table and fire pit, and water in the hiker/biker area. There is a free dump station and water fill here at this campground as well. The Humbug Mountain trail across the highway (there’s an underpass from the campground for pedestrians) is amazing and a great challenge. The cell service on the bigger beach side is spotty but ok-ish, but in the smaller loop the Verizon phone had zero service (but it was ok with the WeBoost), and ATT had weak service.

My husband and I were driving up the coast trying to find a campground that was not either full or super expensive. We had just about given up finding a place when we found this RV Park, we called and were thrilled to hear that not only did they have a space but they were also very very reasonably priced. They had full electric and water that we had been deprived of for a couple of days. I can't speak highly enough of the Campground hostess who was absolutely sweet and very helpful! I would highly recommend that you also pop into this oasis that we found and enjoy a very peaceful night sleep and a camp hostess that is super kind and helpful. Happy journeys to you!

Literally 100 feet from the beach, this tiny campground offers full hookups, 50 amp for 4 sites (the rest are 30 amp), a conveniently located, clean and tidy bathrooms with showers, a laundry and well-cared-for sites. Our 40-foot rig fit nicely into a pull-through and though our 20-foot truck would have fit fine diagonally, they have a free overflow parking area mere feet away. I don't know if it's the case year-round but they are set up to allow you to look at all of the available sites and pick the one you like. That was fun! Great to discover there was a 50-amp available AND it was a pull-through! Super convenient, great vibe here. Highly recommended for anyone that loves strolling on the endless beach and combing for rocks and shells. Terrific. Also walkable to Gold Beach. If you want to do any hiking, pop in your car and there are many options near by!

You will need to be aware that this is an old park. Things are rusting and need to be replaced, but it's a super place to stay. They could put about $20k into the place to make it up to snuff but no complaints here, it's so peaceful and tucked away!

GREAT SPOT. If you are using Apple maps, slow down about 1/2 mile before you are reaching the destination. Pin point takes you past ramp down to bar and it’s a long drive to get turned around. You also will have no cell service ones you turn down the 8 mile road from brookings to get to this spot. I was worried about coming out here bc I didn’t see anyone with reviews around camping here with an RV. As I was approaching you could see this bar was covered in large rigs for the warm weekend. Just go slow and you can easily get a big rig out here. Came on a Saturday afternoon and got a spot right on the water. Huge area with plenty of room for everyone. Site is beautiful and starlink is working great. Reiterating there is no cell service or any type of facilities. Crystal clear river for swimming/floating in. Note this wouldn’t be a place to come if you are looking for a spot to be secluded. It’s a great group camping or stop for passing through for the night. I’d assume it probably stays busy all summer. Really enjoyed my stay here. Felt safe. Would def stay again.

Hidden little gem 7 miles east of Golden Beach. Dry campground with 70ish sites. About 1/3 of them back up to the Rogue River. Also access for fishing/swimming. There is a bathhouse with quarter showers as well. 1 bar cell service for calls/text, but not great streaming. Came in on. Friday afternoon not expecting to get a site but was able to secure one on the water. It’s busy but not packed. They do have firewood for sale. $15 per night. There is a fire ring and picnic table at every site. All are first come first serve, only group sites are reservable. Only knocking it down one star because it’s cash or check only and that was not advertised on their website so I had to drive back to town to get cash out. Otherwise great hidden gem.
