Had an amazing time at the beach. The breach access is a one lane curvy road kind of scary to drive down. The camp host was very helpful. We visited the historic Hughes house that is on the park grounds. It was built in 1898 and they have tours. The lighthouse is the oldest on the Oregon coast and you can get a tour of it. There are a bunch of trails for people and horses. There are 4 rustic cabins and 58 camp sites. The horse camp has 8 spots. It is 9 miles from Port Orford and 28 miles from Bandon. The camp area is in the middle of large trees so the wind doesn't really hit you. We were a long ways away from the bathroom but it was extremely clean. It is a first come first serve campground except for the cabins. Park in the spot you want them go pay the camp host. www.oregonstateparks.org

Plenty of tent/RV sites as per KOA fashion. They offer deluxe tent sites with water/electric. Fairly cheap for Tenters like myself. The campground itself is nice with tall mossy trees characteristic of the area. Pool and hot tub are also available for guests. Camp store is well stocked. They offer breakfast for $8 Sat and Sunday. Camp store also sells icecream. Laundry and showers are clean and the common area has a pool table and Jukebox. Port Orford is down the road for most any need.
GuideI have been camping at Cape Blanco State Park for years. This campground is located on the Southern Oregon coast outside of Port Orford, OR.
The campground does not take reservations and can have low availability during peak summer season. Cabins are available to reserve. The campground has free showers, flush toilets, sinks, firewood for sale, and beach access. The sites have full hookups, fire pits, tables, and very long paved drives. A bikers' camp, group camp, and horse camp are also available.
It is very windy here, but the plants surrounding the sites keep out most of the coastal wind and also provide plenty of privacy from other sites. Be prepared for cold weather and misty air. Dump station is under construction and not open for use right now.
RangerA great place to camp along the gorgeous Oregon coast and everything there is to do in Port Orford. If you are hiking the Oregon Coast Trail, this is a great spot to take a break, or to spend a weekend camping and also enjoying nearby activities. I appreciate the campground has recylxing, and a dog-friendly cabin if you want to stay with your pet. Dogs love the beaches nearby! You are just 17 minutes to fun Port Orford stops like the One Lump Or Two coffee shop (which sells model airplane gear in the front of the shop-- small town quirks!) and Redfish Grill.
One of the hilights of our visit was when we went kayaking with South Coast Tours in the waters off Samuel H. Boardman State Park and you can see some amazing things at low tide, like starfish, sea urchins, harbor seals, and lots of mussels. At higher tides they'll take you through sea caves and some of the arches near Nelly's cove. We also did some really nice hikes. My favorite in the area was down to Secret Beach!
GREGIRY JUNO 3D HYDRO PACK REVIEW
As a Dyrt Ranger, sometimes I get to review camping gear. On this trip, I brought along my new Gregory Juno 3D Hydro Pack. It was really roomy, and in addition to three liters of water also held all the clothes I needed for four days, including warmer, bulkier layers. My sneakers fit nicely in the stretchy front mesh pocket and the generous side mesh compartments were plenty big enough for snacks.
I love how comfortable this pack is, with padded breathable straps and the "vapor span" design to the back that keeps you from getting too sweaty while alao providing cushioning. As a 5'6 size 8-10 gal, I was really pleased with the fit. The bag sits nicely on my hips and stops short of my neck.
The hydro pack is sturdy and easy to use. I do wish this bag had a clearer place to put my laptop for when I'm traveling, but thats really my only complaint. I was pleasantly surprised by how many pockets there are, including an interior zipper pocket with key ring. The pockets are all a bright color that contrasts with the exterior, making it extra easy to look for you things. No dark cavernous interior swallowing your stuff!
Very pleased with my first Gregory pack. Its comfortable and thoughtdully designed in a way that far surpasses my big North Face backpacking pack. I definitely want to get more Gregory products in the future as I replace my older camping gear and invest in new pieces.
LegendThis might be one of our favorite state parks along the coast of Oregon. Just a short detour off the Coastal Highway, this park offers some spectacular views, tons of nautical navigation history as well as a lovely campground tucked into the trees.
Like many state parks the campsites are extremely orderly, sparkling clean, reservable and offer electrical service. We typically run exclusively on solar, but it was hard to do with a completely tree covered campground. We appreciated the electrical hook-ups here. Fresh water spigots are scattered throughout the campground, and a dump station will help you empty before getting back on the road. The bath houses are clean, large, and lovely with flush toilets and hot showers.
We rarely make reservations, but we found a couple open sites in the middle of the week. Registration with the very helpful camp hosts was easy. We had to move sites a couple of times to make our desired stay work out, but that’s the price you pay for not reserving.
There are plenty of recreational options nearby, including hiking, beach combing, horse trails and paddling. This part of the Oregon Pacific coast is unprotected so the ocean can be pretty rough for kayaking, but the nearby river might offer a more protected space to explore by kayak, canoe or paddleboard. And, a hike out to the lighthouse at sunset is epic!
Nearby towns along the coastal highway will offer a quick resupply for groceries and gas but the nearest town is Port Orford about 20 minutes away. It doesn’t offer much more than a convenience store and Dollar General. So, plan ahead.
Guide
Good spot has almost everything. From cabins, yurts, teepees and camps spots. Only slight problem is no pets allowed in cabins, yurts, or teepees
Ranger
There is a golf course right next door. Well-curated campground. Tent camping available here, but we stayed in a yurt. Yurts do not have much greenery for privacy, but you have walls, so I suppose that makes up for it.
Inside the yurt is a heater, a small table, a bunk bed, and a futon. Fire pit around the side. Hot showers and potable water everywhere. Camp hosts and staff were pleasant.
Short walk to a gorgeous beach and miles of hiking trails! Caution: dogs not allowed in some nearby parks.
Legend
Campground with lots of amenities right off the hwy and close to the beach. Trail down to the beach, playground for the kiddos, yurt rentals available. Good facilities. We are tent campers so it wasn't our cup of tea, but great if you have a camper or are looking for a yurt!
GuideBullard is a must see if you are on the Oregon Coast. The campground is full of overgrown greenery, it has many RV, Tent sites and a couple Yurts. The best part about Bullards State Park is the Beach and the lighthouse. The beach is awesome for beach combing with clam fossils, agates and lots of drift wood. The tide can be a little crazy, so keep an eye out.
Guide
My family and I got a Yurt here and enjoyed this park. One thing I found weird was the yurt only had a code and no key, we found it frustrating using a code to go in and out every time. It is a very large park so make sure you have a park map(I’ll add one with the pictures). The privacy is kind of there, you can still hear your neighbors, but can get privacy while on your porch. Tent sites had very little privacy like most coast places. There are only 3 pet friendly yurts so keep that in mind. There are playgrounds, and other places to do activities. There are also multiple quick ways to the beach. Showers are locker room style and are segregated male and female. One negative I saw was they don’t really prioritize cleanliness there.
RangerBIG and CLEAN by the sea. 3 miles to a lighthouse, about a mile 1/2 walk to beach, or drive car to parking to get closer access to the sea. Cost $31 a night plus $8 fee RSVP service. A must to call in for RSVP and open year round. North side of Coquille River just north (5 to 7 miles) of Brandon, Oregon. Can get cel service and mobile data service.
Have Yurt village and Hiker/Biker camp
Close to a boat launch for the Coquille River
Have a horse camp too
GuideQuick access to gorgeous coastal views and beach walks, yurts available, & playground for kids
TravelerMostly R.V. s here, great facilities and free hot showers. Nearby to beautiful and lonely beaches! Stay in a yurt!
GuideI grew up camping here. It's a great place. There are yurts, sand volleyball pits, bathrooms, showers, hiking trails, tidepools, kayaking etc. Amazing family camp.
GuideHarris beach is a big park with different types of camp sites, I stayed in a yurt. Its also got easy access to the beach.
RangerClose RV hookups and lots of traffic. Close to town. Seperate fenced hike and bike area next to garbage dumpster. Nice lockers where you can store valuables and charge batteries. Yurts!
TravelerBig big area for recreation. Camp sites are nice and always clean. They have yurts for a decent price too. Fishing and crabbing is so much fun off the bank and jetty.
RangerThis place was packed. The site had a table and fire pit. Enough flat spot to put my little tent. Most everyone here had RVs and there are Yurts interspersed throughout the campground. Restrooms were large and clean.
ScoutThis park is at the Charleston harbor, within walking distance to most of what you will do, see and eat (if your not cooking). RV camping, pavement and gravel with a couple of yurts available. The best option if you haven't a toad. This park fills so call ahead.
RangerChallenging one lane Gravel Road to get to beautiful Meadow after challenging entrance to golf course with few instructions on how to reach camping area. However, once there it's a beautiful and quiet and well maintained area with numerous sites including a yurt and lots of privacy , Wildlife and Greenery
LegendI camped at Bullard’s Beach State Park on a road trip from Santa Barbara, CA, to Seattle, WA. As a photographer I wanted to photograph some of the coastal Oregon lighthouses, so we chose to camp a night at Bullard’s Beach to see the lighthouse.
The campground is nice with RV and tent sites; each site has a fire ring and a bench table with access to water and clean bathrooms. The campground is not directly on the beach, but is a hike or a short bike ride or car ride away. The road/trail out the the lighthouse is pretty, with small, rolling sand dune bluffs. The shoreline is rocky and wild.
The area has a lot of mosquitos, but that is to be expected. There are some nice-looking yurts availbale to rent if you don't want to battle the bugs and sleep on the ground.

Legend
This is mostly an RV Park and cabin rentals but there are 4 tent spots right on the beach that are phenomenal. You feel like you have your own place on the beach. You do have to walk your stuff there but it’s totally worth it. The first night was great but the second night was a torrential downpour that woke us up. Definitely hit or miss with rain but absolutely a great find. They have large family yurts and cabins to get away from the rain but these tent sites are my favorite!
GuideThe ice cream truck threw me until I figured out they also sold ice. This is a really big (150 sites plus yurts snd hiker/biker spots) campground just off 101. Reservations are needed during the summer. Be sure to pay attention to site length. Some tent sites are ginormous, others not. Nice bathrooms with showers. Some sites on the outside edge have ocean views. There are cable tv (really full hookups) and wi-fi. Beach is easily accessible. 2 miles ftom Brookings.
LegendWe didn’t stay at the campground, but we drove through to check it out. We visited offseason (October) so the interpretive center was closed, and there were lots of open spots available. It’s shady and off the road, but the spots are fairly close together. The yurts looked great, but had very little privacy. It might feel very crowded and busy in the summer months. Everything was clean and tidy. It would be a good landing place if you’re wanting to explore Sunset Bay and the surrounding State Parks.
LegendThis campground (CG) has easy access to the small Sunset Bay beach via a walking path that goes under the road. We checked this CG out for a possible future stay. There were a few sites that would fit our 39’ fifth wheel. There was a nice walking trail through the CG. They even had a fish cleaning station. Restroom/shower houses were spaced conveniently throughout for the tent and yurt campers. Restrooms were clean as was the CG. We were there during a weekend and although it was full, the CG was relatively quiet.
GuideOverall a nice enough campground. Check-in was easy, only A campsites and a few B were open. Showers in A were out of order. 4 Showers near the Yurts were open, very cold and dark bathroom and shower was luke warm at best. Zero cell service. Our site was nice, a small grassy area at the back with a picnic table and fire ring. Our neighbors across the way were playing music until at least 3am, at least it was mellow country music so not terrible. Walkable beach access for a nice sunset, weather permitting. Overall an ok stay.
RangerThis is one of the prettiest State Park campgrounds along Oregons Southern Coast! Just off Hwy 101 and less than a mile north of Brookings, OR.
This campground has many Full hookup sites with plenty of tent sites too. All RV sites are paved with gravel around the picnic table and fire ring. Each loop has its own restrooms and showers which were well kept and very clean. A large playground is located in A loop and is a short walk really from any loop. There is an amphitheater with bench seating that ranger talks are hosted pretty much nightly. We attended one and had a great time watching a moving and learning about the local whales that frequent the coastline there. They offer Junior Ranger activities in a yurt directly across from the amphitheater. Unlike most of the Oregon State Parks we have visited it is only open for an hour 10-11 everyday, but still worth checking out with the kiddos. They do have firewood available to purchase in the campground as well for $5/bundle.
Camping here you are very close to the OR- CA border which makes trips to the Redwood National Park and Crescent City extremely easy. Trails through the Redwoods in Jedediah State Park and Ocean were great for the kiddos when we were not spending time on the beach at the campground.
We really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be making a return trip!
