    Hult Pond

    Decent for an Overnight Stay

    We found a great spot here for an overnight stay. Such a nice view to wake up to! There is no water available here. There are bathrooms available, but we didn’t need to utilize them. No fires allowed. There are no trash cans or dumpsters… this is a pack in, pack out area, so be prepared to take your trash with you! There was quite a bit of trash around and even some needles (be careful) down in a spot we chose not to use… and I did walk around our area and pick up a bunch of trash left by others. We did hear some vehicles driving by throughout the night, and around 4:30 AM someone was walking out around our truck and camper shining a light, causing our dog to bark, which I’m assuming scared them off, because when we got up and went out, we didn’t see anyone.. not sure what that was all about, but I’m glad I wasn’t alone!

    Hult Pond

    Good in a pinch or for 1 night

    There are a few spots off the road here. One large open spot big enough for 2 vehicles and several pull offs. There is a little traffic on the road, mostly big trucks.

    Doolittle Butte

    Great stars

    Nice big lot. Beautiful views of stars on a clear night. Very remote. Climb an easy dirt road back a few miles. A few deep potholes but nothing too technical.

    Eel Creek Campground

    Super cool place

    The campground was quiet. There weren’t a lot of people. The restrooms were working and having plumbing was a nice surprise. My kiddo loved all the bushes that made “secret tunnels” for him to go explore.

    BLM Kentucky Falls Road

    Lovely Siuslaws but Slightly Sketchy

    Birdsongs and gorgeous sunrise in the morning! Didn’t feel completely content solo due to some of the characters I drove by on the way up, but all good. Spot definitely had trash and such around, very sad—remember to pack out what you pack in. However, had a great night of sleep with lovely hiking and natural views all around.

    Where the Forest Meets the Bay

    Sunset Bay State Park Campground

    Sunset bay state park

    Absolutely beautiful and clean campgrounds. Lots of retirees in rvs. Showers are hot and nice. Big spaces but right next to each other. Also offer yurts.

    Siuslaw National Forest Carter Lake Campground

    Nice Campground

    This is a nice campground.  The only consideration would be that all the campsites next to the lake are not recommended for people with mobility issues.  The parking is on an upper level with the actual campsite on a lower level accessed by a trail or stairs.  We had originally reserved site 13, but discovered we had to go down a set of stairs to the campsite.  We were able to change our site without any problems to site 5, which was very nice.  The camp host told us that the campsites along the lake are all accessed by stairs or trails.  The camp host was very nice and the highway noise was minimal.

    Sutton Campground

    Nice campground!

    Nice campground in the woods. Friendly staff. Mix of RV and tent sites. I stayed in a tent site with my dog and we had a great hike from a trailhead in the campground all the way to the dunes and finally the beach. Stunning beach with no one on it and beautiful water.
