Had a great time here secluded treasure in the middle of the city only dislike was having to get a code to the shower room other than that highly recommend
Guide
It was great for the first month after that the owners were continuously invading our area and complaining about everything
Guide
We loved staying here! Beautiful beach that is lovely at sunset and sunrise. Helpful and friendly hosts. Sites fairly close but didnt feel bothered by it.
Scout
Horse Creek is a great site for horse camping. Only two sites are for non-stock campers. The camp has no water or any hook ups but the corrals are pretty good except they can get muddy if manure is not carefully picked out.
The horse water trough is a short walk away from camp but does not have potable water. If users are not careful it can drain or not be usable so bring horse water.
The trails are wonderful!! But hilly so make sure your horse is fit or you are willing to take it easy. Many of the original overlooks are starting to be grown in but the forest is amazing!
Traveler
This is my favorite place to get away with my two daughters. The sites are well spaced with a lot of plant life between them to provide some privacy. There is a path that goes around the small lake, and if you time it right the fishing is great.
Scout
Our stay at the RV spot on the beach was absolutely magical. Waking up to the sound of waves crashing and stepping out to golden sands right from our doorstep was an unparalleled experience. The facilities were well-maintained, and we had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The sunset views were breathtaking, making every evening feel like a painting come to life. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to combine the adventure of RV living with the serenity of beachfront relaxation.
GuideThis was a gem that I wish we had an extra night to stay at. Spot 62 had a secret access to the beach that looks to be one of two away from the general access. Water and electricity hookups with grey water dumps throughout park. Restrooms and showers were available and the camp host has firewood for sale between 5-7pm. Peaceful morning walk on the beach.
Guide
Had a nice one night stop at this RV Park that had about 12 sites that were lined up along the coast. Had a couple other levels with direct views of the ocean, but you were packed in side by side with other RV’s. There are other sites that are a little more divided in some wooded areas. Full hookup with showers, Laundry etc.
GuideOne spot with its own driveway. A nice flat and private spot. A legit pack in pack out spot. Too bad there is trash everywhere and a big puddle on one side. If you have a rake and shovel then may be a good one day or 14 day spot after a few hours of TLC. Nice trails for walking.
GuideCoordinates 45.230277,-123.777780. Across street from Horse Trailhead about half way up Mt Hebo. A good flat spot with nice trails around. Too much trash and glass left at the site though.
Guide
This is a fee area. Have to look really hard this far north in Siuslaw to find a Frst Rd. Just go to Mt Hebo or back to Tili St Forest. Other that most of this north shore OR coast is tough. If anyone has coordinates for their spot Im sure its a valuable share but maybe a keepee.

We stayed in a yurt over Christmas and the heater in the Yurt did not heat sufficiently. We tried to get it fixed by staff but there wasn’t anyone who could help.
We were near the lift station and the alarm was sounding off throughout our stay. Also no one remedied this.
TravelerClean, well maintained. Love the fog horn in the distance. Nice easy trails, many paved. I prefer a little more space between me and my neighbors.
Scout
We set up camp next to an old logging area, gave us the opportunity to have a clear view of the sunset. The area we wanted to go was blocked by a huge log, that kept us on NF property but we still enjoyed the view from where we were.
Guide
Easy to get too from Eugene. Inbetween yachats and walport. Can walk to either. Pacfic Sourdough in Walport is worth a visit. Days open were thursday-saturday. They get a line up. Yummmm. Market in yachats is Sunday. Check if open as it may be seasonal
GuideThey have multiple first come sites. Works for us as we cant plan that far ahead. Bathrooms are clean and get cleaned twice a day. Only thing missing would be a shower. Camp hosts are helpful and always around for questions
Guide
Great location as it is across the street from the beach. It is as simple as the other two next to it and half the price! Bathrooms are clean and showers are decent. Nice helpful camp host.
GuideFriendly, helpful staff. Clean and modern bathrooms. Great location on ocean with great sunsets. Oy negative is spotty internet (Tengo).
TravelerI dove thru. Told not welcome. 2+ year wait list to live there. Asked if I could just pay to park somewhere safely in there as a single woman, in her 40's, just to stay in my car and watch TV on my own cell service in my car? I was told no. I told them I didn't want to live there tonight, I was looking into rv living and feeling out what the lifestyle is about. Currently just a "leave no trace overnight sleep".
Nope.
Met a couple residents and park attendant/host and this is NOT A PLACE TO STAY.
Looks like some kind of laundry area and possibly 1 shower stall. CHeesy (some kind of 1/4 height saloon town cutouts) hostile, rude, unfriendly, and discriminating. Best to move straight past it.
Traveler.
TravelerNo. 100% no. Just want to make sure people know NOT to go there like I did. THE WORST experience I have had ever in all of my exploring!
TravelerNo
Scout
The sites are all mostly seperated by trees which is nice. We can as a first come first serve and there was no issue getting a site
Guide
I believed I had my lighting situation under control, not bright and off at an appropriate time, but when I woke up the next morning, my neighbor said I had offended the stars with my toxic and harsh LEDs. Can’t win em all 🤷♂️
Scout
We camped where the road was blocked and it was great. Saw a cougar as we were leaving, though! Luckily we were all in the car, so cool to see, but be aware!
TravelerWe had horrible weather and our campsite flooded us out. Not much fun in a vintage trailer. But Jack, the campsite manager, took great care of us. He moved us to a higher location, just in time for the sun to come out. If you can get a site overlooking the beach, that's definitely the way to go. It is a smaller campground but it's clean and well kept. The showers are fine. And, as I said, Jack is great. We'll be back.
Scout
My husband and I decided we wanted to camp at the coast this weekend and every other camp site and state park was full, so we stumbled upon this place! It was easy to find following the directions on this site. Like other reviews mentioned, there are cars that drive by since it is a forest road, but we didn’t notice too much of a disturbance from them. It was pretty secluded. We stayed at the intersection campsite, and it was great! There was trash from previous campers, but we cleaned it up before we left!
