8 campgrounds with availability next weekend
Cabin camping near Siuslaw National Forest ranges from rustic one-room structures to multi-room family cabins, with options at Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park and William M. Tugman State Park. These accommodations typically include electric hookups with heating and air conditioning available in most units. Cabin layouts vary from one-room rustic structures to multi-room family options with separate sleeping areas. Kitchen facilities range from basic countertops with microwaves to full kitchenettes with refrigerators, though not all include cooking equipment. "The campground is very close to several activities including boating, fishing, paddling boarding, kayaking, hiking and recreational riding on the dunes," noted one visitor about Tugman State Park. Bathrooms and showers are generally located in central facilities rather than inside individual cabins.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Oregon Dunes KOA offers standard KOA-style cabins with basic furnishings while Bay Point Landing provides more upscale accommodations. Most locations require reservations, particularly during summer months when availability becomes limited. A visitor to William M. Tugman State Park advised, "We made our reservations way in advance. I would highly recommend that if you know you're going to book as soon as possible, 6 months out if possible." Pet policies vary by location, with some sites like Sunset Bay State Park and Umpqua Lighthouse State Park offering pet-friendly cabins for additional fees, while others maintain pet-free accommodations.
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Bedding typically consists of mattresses on platform beds or bunks without sheets, blankets or pillows. Cooking facilities differ substantially between locations, with some providing only outdoor fire rings and others featuring indoor kitchenettes. Basic provisions can be purchased at on-site stores at locations like Osprey Point RV Resort, which one reviewer praised for having a "nicely stocked store and restaurant on site." Winchester Bay RV Resort and Bay Point Landing also maintain markets for essential supplies, though selection may be limited. Cabin campgrounds near Siuslaw National Forest generally provide convenient access to hiking trails, lakes, and coastal recreation areas, making them a practical base for exploring the Oregon coast.
"Much larger than the rustic yurts available in other Oregon State parks, the deluxe yurt had acres of space. The kitchen had an almost full sized fridge, a microwave, and a sink."
"We visited this campground for the second time this past weekend and even in late October it is a fantastic location to go on the coast!"
Available next weekend

"Pets, children and groups are very welcome at this campground with nearby lakes, sand and ocean access. Rent kayaks and canoes at the lake."

ScoutI just accidentally found this campsite after visiting the lighthouse. It was a delightful little area very secluded and the staff was very nice. Had a great shower and a wonderful night sleep. I would stay here again.❤️
Guidedespite the rating i had absolutely no cell service with Verizon. i do not recommend this campground for tent campers, yurt neighbors were very noisy and i ended up sleeping in my car. do not recommend for solo travelers, complete SOS no service in entire campground. i wish i would have stayed at the campground up the road a little closer to town as i had service there. no wifi like it says on the front gate. bathrooms were clean, shower was nice.
TravelerGreat spot with beautiful greenery and trees. Camp sites are fairly close together which means you can hear what your neighbor is doing/talking about. The other guests were considerate and mostly quiet. They had warm showers (no extra charge), but they were the type you probably want to keep your shoes on for. Not dirty, but something about them made me question being barefoot (and I rarely wear shoes anywhere). Plenty of sites open mid week in October, bring warm gear as we were in the shade all day.
TravelerWe stayed in site B31 which was right next to a trail that led to the beach that's a little more than a mile. Staff was friendly and it was the cleanest bathrooms I've seen in a state park
ScoutLovely campground. Walking distance to the beach, you can hear the roar of the surf all night. Spotless bathrooms and showers, friendly helpful staff. A multitude of trails. Raccoons, turkeys, foxes, and ground squirrels in abundance.
TravelerQuiet. Not too busy and not too empty. Easy access to the lakes and sand dunes. Bathroom is cleaner than most other ones. Would love to visit again.
TravelerI camped at Bullards Beach State Park Campground in August 2026 with my daughter. We pitched our tent in site A25. I became familiar with A-Loop. I only drove through the other two loops. B-Loop looked similar with sites for tents and RVs. C-Loop looked like it is better suited for RVs.
PROS & CONS
First of all, the staff I interacted with were all wonderful. The weather was unseasonably cool, but we still enjoyed our week at the campground. The biggest draw in my opinion is that the Pacific Ocean is only a short trek away.
Camping on the outside curve of A-Loop was nice because it was relatively calm and quiet, even on the weekend. Everyone respected quiet hours at this campground, more so than at any other campground I’ve stayed at. The sites have electric hookups and a water spigot, as well as a picnic table and fire ring. Firewood is sold at the entrance to the campground for $7 per bundle. Payment is card-only. Firewood bundles can also be purchased at McKay's in Bandon. Another option is a place named Frontier Unlimited just south of Bandon on the west side of highway 101. The firewood at Frontier Unlimited is in a gravel parking lot right before the Ocean Spray Cranberries facility. Unfortunately, they were sold out when we were there in late August.
There aren’t many trees in the Bullards Beach campground, but most of the sites in A-Loop at least had bushes surrounding them. I brought a hammock, but I couldn’t use it because there was only one tree in our campsite. I couldn't even find a good s'mores stick. As I walked around A-Loop, I didn’t see any sites that had more than one sturdy tree. There may be some sites in B-Loop with more trees. C-Loop has sparse vegetation, which is why it looked better suited for RVs.
The A-Loop restroom was kept cleaner than most public restrooms I’ve ever used. Besides the outstanding cleanliness, the restrooms are typical of Oregon state park campgrounds. The main drawback of the restroom is that there are no paper towels, only inadequate hand dryers. And the faucets just had cold water, although I found one faucet that could produce lukewarm water if I was patient. Another shortcoming is that the two stalls in the men’s bathroom are cramped. The campground is huge so I expected the bathrooms to have more than two small stalls. Also, there are no hooks in the men’s bathroom. At least there is a bench and there are metal trays above the three sinks. There is however a private, spacious handicap bathroom with a large counter, sink, bench, toilet and shower. I took a shower in there and man the water was hot! It was actually a bit too hot to bear.
BEACHES
From the campground entrance, the walk to Bullards Beach is about 1.25 miles down a mostly paved path. Along the way there is a string of parking lots with picnic tables and barbeques for day use. There is even a horseshoe pit near the middle of the day use area. It costs $10 a day to park in the lots. At the end of the parking lots there is a small sand dune, and beyond that is Bullards Beach. When we crested the dune, we found that the beach was mostly deserted. That could have been due to the foggy, windy weather, but it seemed like most of the tourists congregate at Bandon Beach. Regardless of the weather, I recommend visiting the historic Coquille River Lighthouse at the south end of Bullards Beach. I saw that the B-Loop has its own path to Bullards Beach called Pearl’s Trail. I didn’t notice it until we were leaving, so I don't know what it's like.
Besides Bullards Beach and Bandon Beach, which is a short drive south, we explored Seven Devils State Recreation Site 7 miles to the north. Also, at the south end of Bandon we checked out Tish-A-Tang Beach, which is 5.5 miles from the campground. One day we drove 30 miles south to Port Orford to see the desolate Cape Blanco Lighthouse and the little beaches below it. The lighthouse is cool but the weather wasn't conducive to hanging out at the beach down below, so we skipped that. I had been out there before, but I forgot that there are no public restrooms at Cape Blanco Lighthouse. I suggest making a pitstop in Port Orford before heading out to the second-most westerly point in the contiguous United States.
SUMMARY
Bullards Beach Campground is a peaceful, clean and comfortable place to “glamp” on the rugged southern Oregon Coast. The campground is home to a few wild turkeys and an abundance of lively birds. As for mammalian wildlife, the chipmunks were ever-present, we caught glimpses of rabbits, one evening a small bat flitted by, and we encountered a family of thieving raccoons. (I learned to store our food very securely). The Pacific weather can be capricious, but on the other hand there are very few insects. There were no mosquitoes, but I saw an occasional butterfly, moth, and flying termite. I just wish there were more trees in the campground so I could relax in my hammock. What I remember about the Cape Blanco State Park Campground (31 miles to the south) is that it's in a forest of Sitka spruce trees. But I would rather camp at Bullards Beach because it’s more sheltered from the stormy weather coming off the Pacific and there are more wide-open stretches of beach close by. I look forward to staying there again.
GuideEasy to park and dry camp or there are hookup spots that go quick during the summer. Great place to walk around and see the life and wildlife if you are not there to participate.
GuideI loved it here. The spots are a little close where I was but at least there was a picnic table. I love the location most of all. You can hear the birds and watch the seals close up. Well kept park and good facilities.
Cabin camping near Siuslaw National Forest provides coastal access with frequent marine fog and mist, particularly in summer months when temperature inversions create a cool microclimate. At Umpqua Lighthouse State Park, cabins sit amid the temperate rainforest where average summer temperatures hover around 65-70°F, while inland areas can be 10-15 degrees warmer. Winter cabin stays often experience significant rainfall with monthly averages of 10-12 inches between November and February.
Hiking around lake ecosystems: Walk the 1-mile trail around Lake Marie at Umpqua Lighthouse State Park for easy forest access. "The 1 mile hiking trail around Lake Marie is pretty and easy," notes Laura H., who visited the park. In summer, seasonal berries become a trail feature: "I loved the 1 mile loop around the lake, totally covered in huckleberries in August. Lots to pick and plenty unripe for September pickings."
Fishing from docks and shorelines: Cast for freshwater fish at William M. Tugman State Park where cabins provide easy access to Eel Lake. Melissa L. reports success even with children: "Lots of loops for Sam to ride her bike, trails around Eel Lake to hike (beautiful!), kayak and paddleboard rentals (didn't get a chance to do that), a dock to fish off (lots of fish to catch there), and a nice kids' playground." Eric N. confirms good fishing opportunities: "Eel lake was a lot of fun! Good fishing from the dock as well as from our kayaks and SUP boards."
Crabbing excursions: Cabin stays at Winchester Bay RV Resort offer direct access to crabbing opportunities. One visitor shared, "We were able to cast our crab snares right off the back of our site and limit out." Another guest, Caroline L.S., explained their experience: "We wanted to go crabbing for the first time, the crab pier was close by. Had a wonderful adventure!"
Off-season cabin availability: Winter cabin stays offer significantly less crowding and different coastal experiences. Nicole L. appreciated winter flexibility at Jessie M. Honeyman Memorial State Park: "We went in the off season (in the winter) so the campground didn't have many people staying—most being in RVs and us in a yurt. I have a toddler and it ended up being so helpful with the weather being a bit rainy and getting some creature comforts while still enjoying nature."
Cabin configurations: Deluxe yurts offer significant space advantages over standard units. Nancy H. described Umpqua Lighthouse State Park's accommodations: "For a small campground the deluxe yurts were huge. Much larger than the rustic yurts available in other Oregon State parks, the deluxe yurt had acres of space. The kitchen had an almost full sized fridge, a microwave, and a sink." Specific cabins may offer better views: "Try 19 for a view of the lake yet still dog friendly."
Shoreline proximity: Cabins at Sunset Bay State Park provide exceptional beach access. Amy R. noted, "Nice, large campground across from the beach. We were way in the back of the campground and the beach was still a short walk away." The park's location allows for convenient beach walks throughout the day.
Advanced reservations essential: Book cabin accommodations months ahead, especially for summer stays. Robena M. advises about William M. Tugman State Park: "We made our reservations way in advance. I would highly recommend that if you know you're going to book as soon as possible, 6 months out if possible. We got the last yurt available for the time period we were out there."
Bathroom and shower setups: Most cabins lack private bathrooms, requiring walks to central facilities. Lainey P. at Umpqua Lighthouse State Park noted, "I was at site 32 - nearby the bathrooms, which were very clean and had a great sink outside which was useful for cleaning camp dishes as I was car camping." Kendra L. found frequent maintenance at William M. Tugman State Park: "The bathrooms were cleaned very frequently, which I found comforting given there's a pandemic."
Weather unpredictability: Coastal fog and wind patterns affect cabin stays significantly. At Bay Point Landing, Patrick J. experienced challenging conditions: "It was howling 30 mph with fog when we checked in and lasted through the night. One sunny breezy day during our stay. This point must be susceptible to wind and fog. Elsewhere in Coos bay, not the case."
Age-appropriate accommodations: Select cabins based on family size and needs. At Honeyman Memorial State Park, Kyle notes: "30+ family members camp here every year around 4th of July. Always great fun and great atmosphere. Hosts are wonderful and the grounds/restrooms/showers are all well kept."
Playground accessibility: Choose cabin locations near play structures for convenience. Melissa L. appreciated William M. Tugman State Park's setup: "Back at camp, we had some incredibly noisy neighbors, but I'd still rate it a 9!" with specific mention of "lots of loops for Sam to ride her bike" and "a nice kids' playground."
Kid-friendly activities: Consider cabins with safe biking zones. John H. from Umpqua Lighthouse State Park shared: "We did our annual dad camp with kids and no moms allowed here and really enjoyed it. The campground has a nice small loop with a hill that the kids loved to ride their bikes around and zoom by our site. Because of its location, it had few cars driving through, leaving the road open for kids to do what kids do."
Site privacy considerations: Cabin areas often share design elements with RV sections. At Bastendorff Beach Park, Vicky G. found excellent seclusion: "Site 40 was excellent! A berm of at least 10 ft surrounds. Big part of the site." For winter cabin stays, Nancy H. noted cabin heating challenges at Umpqua Lighthouse: "The small heater had a hard time heating all of the space."
Supplies and provisioning: Assess on-site store options when planning cabin stays. Osprey Point RV Resort offers expanded services according to Dave H.: "Nicely stocked store and restaurant on site. Fishing and boating at your door." Greg W. at Bay Point Landing appreciated comprehensive facilities: "From the huge clean bathrooms to the saltwater pool, the pavilion, the office, the rental airstreams, and even the fire pits are amazing!"
