    Beverly Beach State Park Campground accommodates tent campers, RV travelers, and visitors seeking yurt lodging with dogs. The campground features a network of trails along the creek and direct beach access where pets can explore the shoreline with their owners. Most sites provide adequate space for dogs, though some visitors note the sites closer to the beach loop have more road noise from Highway 101. The campground maintains clean shower and bathroom facilities with hot water, making it convenient for pet owners to clean up after beach adventures. Shaded campsites under dense forest canopy create a rainforest atmosphere while providing protection from coastal winds.

    South Beach State Park and Tillicum Beach Campground also welcome pets with designated pet-friendly sites. Dogs must remain on leash throughout all campgrounds, with a standard 6-foot leash requirement enforced on trails and beaches. The Oregon coast offers miles of dog-friendly beaches for morning walks and play sessions at low tide. Pet-friendly campgrounds near Otter Rock provide waste disposal stations throughout the grounds, and most campsites include picnic tables where pets can rest alongside their owners. During summer months, campgrounds fill quickly with families and their pets, so advance reservations are strongly recommended. Newport's veterinary clinics are within 10-15 minutes of most coastal campgrounds, providing emergency services if needed during your stay.

      Tent camping

      Well we did not know that when tent camping you can only stay two weeks we were originally told we could stay as long as we wanted as long as we moved and did not stay in a spot more than 7 days. Not a bad campground just don't like the two week stay rule. Plus my cat loves it. There is a natural that can be walked, a dog park, swimming pool, also a place to throw disc golf disc's.

      Creekside Retreat at Triangle Lake

      Orwellian glamping

      Advertised as a pet friendly glamping space. Brought my dog and upon arrival was told dogs are not allowed inside tent. On the website it states dogs must be on leash and not left alone outside. How is anyone able to sleep inside a tent while not having your pet alone outside not being allowed inside tent? Apparently my campsite is recorded audio and video by the hosts and we were unnecessarily aggressively confronted. The creek we camped next to was polluted with pet feces, nitrous cartridges and used cigarette filters. Overall we left and felt scammed. They charged us $25 for wood we never burned

      Month Long Stay at Corvallis KOA

      Spent a month in an RV space at this KOA. My first experience at a KOA couldn’t have gone better. Staff was friendly, facilities were clean, and fellow RVers were quiet and respectful. We stayed here with a dog and were really happy with amenities such as the dog park and small trail behind campground. Really phenomenal and kind workers as well. Would stay again. We stayed during the wet season, and it was not very busy here. We did have some issues with moisture in RV, would definitely recommend having a dehumidifier. Showers and bathrooms cleaned daily and were very clean always. There is also a nice laundry facility (coin operated) and sink for washing dishes. Two bathrooms and a dog park. Electric hookups, black water dump, and water hookup at site.

      Hebo Lake Campground

      My favorite place

      My absolute favorite place to camp in Oregon!!!! Always clean, quite, peaceful, and just perfect!!!! The fishing is always great and when the onshore flow comes over the trees, it's nothing short of a miracle and magic.

      Pleasant Valley RV Park

      It was ok, some good, some bad

      The park was clean and it had a nice dog park for our dog to run in. There were rabbits all over the park which was fun to watch.

      The showers and laundry were clean as well. Tmobile was nonexistent in the area and Wifi from the park was abysmal. There are a lot of full time residences here but they were all very friendly.

      Coyote Rock RV Resort & Marina

      Definitely great spot

      Absolutely loved this place! I definitely suggest making a reservation our rv Neighboors let us know that they have to book a year in advance. We are traveling through Oregon just camping with two adult 2children and our dog. They were pet friendly and all of the staff were extremely nice! There are multiple spots right on the river which we were lucky enough to snag even though it was last minute.

      Logan Road RV Park

      Close to stores and beach

      Nice rv park. Good pet area (near spots facing office) and off leash area. Bathrooms were clean, but sinks do not have hot water. Safeway, coffee and food in walking distance. A little hike to beach access behind casino. Casino does have dry camping spots for free. My paved spot was not level.

      Seal Rocks RV Cove

      It's All About the View

      This was our second time here, and we enjoyed the first so much we decided to spend a month over Christmas to watch storms and hopefully see the whale migration. As Seal Rocks RV Cove is right off US-101, you take the second left at the sign if you are coming from the south. Per our instruction email, we headed straight to back-in site 18 with FHUs. Since we were going to be here a month, we fiddled more than normal to position our 40’ 5th wheel into position. Otherwise, this is a fairly easy back-in. Most of the positioning was to get more center on the gravel pad because there are tall hedges on both sides. This is a nice privacy feature in most sites. The water pressure was around 60 psi, so we used a reducer. Water and electric are more centered on the site. Site 18 has a great view of Seal Rock and the ocean. Another great feature of these sites is that the utilities are on both sides for back-ins like us, and Class As and Bs can pull in forward. We needed about 15’ of sewer hose with the back-in connection. The $45 nightly rate was based on an off-season monthly rate, and we did not have to pay extra for electricity. We had one bar on Verizon, which was usable for phone calls. We got a clear shot of the NW sky for Starlink. There wouldn’t be a problem for a southern shot as well. There’s a fire pit and picnic table at the back of the site. There’s a small fenced dog park and a beach trail path that leads out of the RV park to Hwy 101 to get to the beach trail. The park WiFi was pretty good, but there were not many campers here this time of year. The park managers are friendly and accommodating, and they enforce their rules. Two in particular were dogs on six-foot leashes and no LED lights at night. We were lax with our dogs because the park was empty, but they quickly reminded us of the rule. As you are right off US-101, there is road noise, but it quiets down at night. Seal Rocks RV Cove doesn’t have a laundry, but there’s one nearby in Waldport and two in Newport. There is so much to do and see in this area. We spent a month and still didn’t get everything done we wanted to do."

    Guide to Otter Rock

    Beverly Beach State Park provides direct beach access via an underpass beneath Highway 101, letting visitors avoid crossing busy roads. The surrounding area features dense coastal forests with occasional fog and moderate temperatures averaging 45-65°F year-round. Located about 7 miles north of Newport, this area offers a range of camping experiences from oceanfront sites to more secluded forest settings.

    What to do

    Beach fossil hunting: At Beverly Beach State Park Campground, the shoreline contains numerous marine fossils. "Nearly every rock and cliff face is littered with marine fossils of varying types and sizes and you can often find individual fossilized shells that can be collected," notes Erik C., who recommends checking after storms when new stones are uncovered.

    Crabbing at Newport Marina: Located 10 minutes from most coastal campgrounds, the marina provides excellent crabbing opportunities. "We love this spot for a quick stay when we're heading through Newport. Picturesque view of the bridge, walk to Rogue Brewery's headquarters, and not too far to the beach and downtown Newport. You can also try your luck at crabbing or fishing off the pier!" advises Blaine B.

    Wildlife spotting: Several campgrounds offer opportunities to observe local wildlife. At South Beach State Park Campground, campers can explore trails around and across the adjoining dunes. Patrick M. mentions the campground has "good hikes around and across the adjoining dunes and to the beach," perfect for spotting coastal birds and small mammals.

    What campers like

    Ocean soundscape: The proximity to crashing waves creates a calming backdrop at Tillicum Beach Campground. "We had an ocean view, beach access and a large semi private site. It was quiet, clean and the hosts were very friendly," reports Nicole S. who particularly valued the unobstructed views from oceanfront sites.

    Varied terrain: Many campgrounds offer multiple landscapes to explore within short distances. Devil's Lake State Recreation Area features both forest and lake access, with Blake F. noting: "This is a great campground during the summer months. The ground is typically dry and you are in close proximity to the beach. If you reserve the right campsite, you'll also be just a stones throw from devils lake."

    Educational programs: Several parks offer learning opportunities for visitors. Beverly Beach State Park has "nice educational programs for kids" according to Kristen W., who also appreciated the "short walk to the beach and nature trails" that complement the educational offerings.

    What you should know

    Seasonal considerations: Winter camping requires preparation as some sites can flood. At Devil's Lake State Recreation Area Campground, Kelly H. advises: "I'd recommend this small quiet spot, even in the winter!" but cautions that weather conditions affect accessibility, adding "we didn't actually go down to the beach as the tide was in each time we went out, and the walk across the rocks in the wind and rain didn't seem too prudent."

    Insect preparation: South Beach State Park has issues with mosquitoes during summer months. "Mosquitos were bad this year so bring bug spray. Also make sure you book ahead because it always is booked from June to October," warns Brian C., emphasizing the importance of both insect repellent and advance planning.

    Beach access variability: Not all beach access points are equally easy to navigate. At Tillicum Beach Campground, Heather L. found "only one issue I found is it can be hard to make it down to the beach if you are not in great shape. Big rocks to climb over and down to make it to the beach definitely not ADA accessible."

    Tips for camping with families

    Kid-friendly amenities: Port of Newport RV Park & Marina offers activities appealing to younger visitors. "We were a 15 minute drive to Waldport (for crabbing), under 5 minute drive to South Beach State Park for a camp fire on the beach," shares A T., highlighting the variety of activities accessible from this central location.

    Indoor options for rainy days: The Oregon Coast Aquarium provides a weather-independent activity close to several campgrounds. Staying at Port of Newport places you "walking distance to the Oregon Coast Aquarium, also very cool," according to Laura M., providing a convenient educational activity during inclement weather.

    Playground access: Several campgrounds feature dedicated play areas. At Thousand Trails Whalers Rest, Nicole R. enjoyed the family-friendly atmosphere: "We've been here a few times. It's always very relaxing. The facility is clean, there is a nice workout room, two lodges with store, pool and hot tub and mini golf. Kids enjoyed playing on the playground and walking to beach from trail."

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection strategy: At Sea and Sand RV Park, Robert D. advises: "The upper park area had a laundry room attached to the bathroom. To wash was $1.50 and to dry was .50 for 5 minutes time and had a large folding area." He notes some sites require "a screw on sewer connection that in some sites were 25 plus feet from the rear of the site," which is important information for planning hookups.

    Beach accessibility: While many campgrounds advertise beach access, the ease varies considerably. Laura M. found that at South Beach State Park, "It's an easy walk to the beach to watch the sunset which I really enjoyed. They have wifi if you need it, and plenty of games to keep anyone entertained."

    Winter camping precautions: Judy T. offers practical advice about Devil's Lake: "It can flood in the fall and spring months, their rainy seasons. There is usually a camp host or two where you can get help or firewood. The sites aren't that private although native Rhododendrons and others often divide the sites."
