"Great place to camp, go for a walk with whole family. Collect rocks and driftwood. Access to public bathrooms, rv area and dining areas."

$22 - $79 / night
"Clean facilities with running water and hot showers. Make sure to bring weather appropriate clothing. It's always on the cooler/ chilly and windy side here."
"Most sites level and all had fire pits and picnic tables.
Dump station was closed when we were there."

"I’ve grown up going to Powers every year to camp and now I take my son and he loves it also."
$6 / night
"This is a very small campground surrounded by lush trees and a flowing creek. Rock Creek is located right near the coast of Oregon, making it easy to wander during the day before returning to camp."
"Located directly on rock creek, the sound of the river lulled me to sleep. It was very quiet, and very far out of the way. There is a lovely trailhead very close to the campground."
"Tent site was a little small, but small fences have been installed to create privacy between campers and the size didn’t bother us. Site had a picnic table and fire pit."
"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."
$22 - $74 / night
"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."
"Campsites are nicely maintained and practically on the beach with nearby hiking trails and pet friendly beaches. Campsites are pet friendly and nice sized with fire pits and picnic benches."
"After a beautiful ride up the coast, we turned inland to find heat & Agness. We first looked for Illahe (closed) then found this. Great spot, excellent shade, and nice restroom."
"This campground is near the Rouge River. The campsite is a little small, but just down the road is the boat launch with bathrooms, garbage bins, and recycle bins."
$55 - $160 / night
"You were greeted upon your arrival and told all about all of the amenities. Do you have a chance to interact with the horse, pig, and two goats. We stayed in the Knappin Hous."
"We're happy to welcome your host Heather to our platform. With several sites to choose from, we're sure you'll find one that suites you. Book your stay today and come back to leave them some love."
"Sweet front desk Laurie welcomed us from an office stocked with anything we would need/want. She was surprised when we only bought 1 local IPA and graham crackers."
"Its some 50 acres and the tent campsites reside away from the RV area a little ways. Enough to seem secluded. They situated the place perfectly. My words cannot describe the elegance."
ScoutWe were here for a quick overnight in our 24' travel trailer. The place is very nice with tent, cabin, and RV sites. Our site was partial HU but they do have full HU sites. Bathrooms and showers were clean. It's close to I-5 bit the road noise was not bad and a chorus of frogs throughout the evening distracts from it. We were in spot 67 which was spacious and offered a great deal of privacy. Picnic table and fire pit on site. The nearby covered bridge is neat to see.
GuideThe website was not kidding about not following the directions through Google Maps. The last 9 miles to the resort was really trying - the roads were narrow, twisty and winding. If you are probe to car-sickness, go slow. I took extra precaution and dabbed essential oils on myself and my children.
Our pull-through site was in the Upper Marina, #22. If you have an extra canopy for camping, I'd suggest you bring it. It got really HOT when we were there. The good news is once the sun sets behind the trees, around 6pm, it makes eating dinner at the picnic table so comfortable and cooling.
My husband and children perused the bathroom/shower facilities which was just across from our campsite. He said it was spacious - a shower + private bathroom + sink setup and wide enough for a family.
Access to the swimming beach/boat launch is just a short 3 minutes walk. You just have to exercise caution because you will be crossing a main road (cars and big logging trucks rumble along often enough during the week).
The swimming (sandy) beach is cosy (read: tiny). There are no lifeguards on duty but enough trees offering shade for parents/families to sit back and keep watch.
You would have to drive back 5 minutes down the road to visit the Lodge for supplies or ice. The Lodge also provides some light refreshments* (deli sandwiches and ice-cream).
Our site offered full hook-ups including cable (limited channels). WIFI* was a disappointment though - we had to create an account for a complimentary hour of WIFI usage every day. Together with the zero cell reception, it renders us completely off the grid. It's great really to totally relax your mind and body but it is worrisome for that what-if's scenarios.
*Ice-cream was very pricey for the single not-generous scoop in a plastic cup that we bought for each of us. Because of the steep prices and WIFI availability (you have to pay if you want to get connected), I could only give a rating of 3.5/5 stars.
Otherwise, we had a great time at the RV resort. The sites are appealing for huge family reunion (we witnessed such a reunion during our trip). We will be back! 😊
We are a family of 4 (2 young boys with no pets). We traveled with a travel trailer.
TravelerGreat place to camp, go for a walk with whole family. Collect rocks and driftwood. Access to public bathrooms, rv area and dining areas.
RangerThere 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.
GuideNice campground that’s within walking distance to the beach. Not a lot of private sites but there are a few. Several sights with hookups for trailers and sites are good sized. We were there in early September and the campground was fairly quiet. No campfires because of fire restrictions then but you can use a portable propane powered fire pit.
GuideSpent three days here and had a great time. Staff was helpful and let us change sites when we arrived to a better location. Nicely stocked store and restaurant on site. Fishing and boating at your door. Our site was a little unlevel, but ok. Appears to be alot of long termers at the rear of the park. Very close to the town of Lakeside, which has a grocery store for supplies. Bathrooms were clean and well kept. We'll going going back.
GuideFirst time staying at a KOA and we were pleasantly surprised. Employees were super friendly and the campground was wooded and beautiful. Tent site was a little small, but small fences have been installed to create privacy between campers and the size didn’t bother us. Site had a picnic table and fire pit. Pool, hot tub, kart rentals for kids… our daughter loved it. Clean bathrooms and showers and even a dishwashing station behind the main building. Firewood sold for $10/bundle and they deliver it to your site for you. Pet friendly. Loved it!
LegendBullards Beach State Park, just north of Bandon, OR, is another massive RV parking lot. And if that is the kind of camping you do, you'll love it. If you tent camp, probably not so much.
But...a pod of Orca Whales lives year round in the Bandon Bay which is walkable out of the camp which makes the reality of the park irrelevant. A POD OF ORCAS!
There are actually three known pods but two of them migrate for a big part of the year. However, the third has learned that the bay is a great place to feed. The odds aren't always in your favor to see them so close in the bay (one local told me he hadn't seen them in four years), but sometimes you get lucky. Sometimes you get into a staring contest with a California Grey Seal while sitting near the lighthouse on a melancholy afternoon, and when he or she decided the game is up you turn around and see five of the biggest fins you've ever seen. You may think to yourself, "Wow, those are some big f@#king dolphins!" before you realize what you are seeing.
The campground has all the amenities. Hiker/Biker sites have REI sponsored storage boxes with USB charging station. There are hot showers, and a Welcome Yurt with donation based hot coffee and tea until 8pm.
Wildlife is abundant. Despite it's location near town there are regular bear sightings. Birds flit about, and some of those birds may be gnats and mosquitos that have just taken steroids. There are also red ants, which considering how sandy the ground is are good to look for before pitching camp.
The Hiker/Biker area has shared fire pits and picnic tables, shade cover and no established sites. The main campground area is big, and some loops are literally just fields. Stick to the outside of a loop if you want a tree in your site.
The campground is fine. It's fine. It will be fine. And none of that matters because you could see a whale. The opportunity to see a whale takes this from a three star to a 4 star. Plus nearby Bandon has a great coffeeshop, some cool art, and the beginning of the glorious Oregon Coast starts getting even bigger, and even beautiful-er.
Amenities include:
*Pro-Tip 1: Bandon Coffee has good coffee, and a great staff who will make you feel at home.
**Pro-Tip 2: There is a lighthouse out by the beach/dunes. It looks like a lighthouse.
***Pro-Tip 3: Plan to spend some time wandering the coast on the Bandon side of the bay. That first three miles of coastline is beautiful and has numerous spots to have a picnic lunch.
ScoutThis is a beautiful place to enjoy the scenery. It's beautiful and quiet. Clean facilities with running water and hot showers. Make sure to bring weather appropriate clothing. It's always on the cooler/ chilly and windy side here.
