Beachside State Recreation Site

We loved staying here! Beautiful beach that is lovely at sunset and sunrise. Helpful and friendly hosts. Sites fairly close but didnt feel bothered by it.

This was a gem that I wish we had an extra night to stay at. Spot 62 had a secret access to the beach that looks to be one of two away from the general access. Water and electricity hookups with grey water dumps throughout park. Restrooms and showers were available and the camp host has firewood for sale between 5-7pm. Peaceful morning walk on the beach.

Really cool area. Walking distance to many beach access points. There was someone working the whole time we were there to sell firewood, or assist in any way needed. The sites are very close together however so there’s not much privacy

Had a great Site. Nice camp hosts. Very clean and well maintained.

An outstanding campground. Wonderful & very friendly camp hosts. Extremely clean RV sites & bathrooms. Excellent hot showers. Great WiFi service. Seconds to the beach. Nine miles from walport. Very clean beach. Love this campground.

A gorgeous spot on the beautiful Oregon Coast just south of Waldport with spots for tents and RVs and access to an expansive and wide beach.

Unfortunately for us, we had reservations the same night a storm came ashore that dumped cold rain all night accompanied by howling winds. We leaned that it's not the norm for June, though.

We'll be back again on another trip. The nice campground layout, gracious camp hosts, proximity to Waldport and resources, and easy, direct access to the broad beautiful beach will draw us back soon.

This is a great state campground with lots of beach access. Just be aware of low spots in the campsites if rain is in the forecast.

This campground is close to the beach, clean and very pleasant. This campground shares showering facilities with Tillicum campground.

We spent 2 nights/3 days at Beachside the end of June. The weather was lovely as we missed the extreme heat in the Willamette valley. This is a smaller campground, but had water and electric hookups and nice restrooms with hot showers 😊 Easy short walk to the beach and one can easily walk south on the beach to Yahats, or north to Waldport. Going north out of Waldport, just over the bridge, we took kayaks up Beaver Creek (east side of highway 101, opposite Ona beach. It was quite picturesque with lots of waterfowl.

I think this is the closest I've camped to the ocean on the Oregon Coast. I didn't have a beachside site, but still was very close. Stayed here over Easter weekend and had friends in the spot right next to me.. Good privacy between sites and did I mention access to the beach! 

Close to Yachats, one of my favorite coastal towns.

Camped here on a bicycle tour. Hiker/biker site was not as tucked away as many are on the Oregon coast, but it's all one needs when traveling. Showers were hot. Price was $5. No reservations required. Caught a great sunset on the coast that night.

Tucked back in the trees behind the beach, protected from the wind. Can hear highway 101 but it runs along nearly every beach here. Great spog

My family and I tented here 2 nights while roadtripping across the country. The site was great (#53) with a blacktop pad for the car, tent pad, table and ring. It was private...ish, we felt very comfortable. We could walk 100yds and be on the ocean; other sites were beachside. Bathrooms and showers were clean. A host on duty sold firewood but only between 5pm and 7pm so plan accordingly.

We have already discussed driving from Wisconsin, with Beachside SP being our destination for a week long stay!

Very good beach access. Very private sites. A little bit of road noise is the only downside.

Great campground right on the beach. Fire pit, picnic table and easy access to water. Also close to the road - at least many tent sites are. But clean, close to Waldport and Yachats, and best of all Easy stroll to the beach. We had a whole little tent cul de sac to ourselves (site 31 I think). Could hear the waves of the ocean - and an occasional car- while going to sleep. There are two yurts that looked cool too, though one of them is kinda close to a neighboring private home.

What a wonderful campground right on the beach. Make a reservation in advance to secure an ocean view as you emerge from your tent.

Camped here in May and managed to get one of the 2 Yurts available.

This is RIGHT ON 101  its a mere sliver of forest between 101 and the beach.

The yurt was amazing and at least kept the road noise to a miniumum.

The reason to come here is the magnificent almost empty beach..its breath taking great.

We strolled around the campground and it seemed to me they got it all wrong, they had the RV sites nearest the beach and furthest from 101..while the poor tenters were right up against the highway.

As a tenter there is no way i would stay here it would be unbearable without ear plugs, they should have the big RVs next to the road as tbhey dont hear a thing inside and the tents next to the beach.

But still a well maintained fanily campground with a beautiful empty beach

This one s a great beach campground with a handful of tent camping spots and many RV spots. The beach is very easy access and during the week, there were only a handful of people using the beach. After 5 days of camping throughout the area, I was thankful for the availability of a warm shower. The only drawback was the constant noise from the 101. Just a tip for you tent campers...A11 has a great ocean view

Some amazing ocean front spots. The highway side can be quite noisy from Hwy 101. Ocean side is near enough to the waves that it overpowers the Hwy.

Smaller loop campground with deep campsites for RVs. Wouldn't recommend staying here if you are just in a tent or prefer quieter campsites. Great access to the beach, recycling, restrooms, electric hookups, etc.

Between Waldport and Yachats on 101. Always full - reserve early. The beach is right there. Sites are separated by trees. Hosts on site. One big bathroom with showers. One smaller bathroom. Tent and trailer/rv hookups. No sewer dump on site. Closes for the winter.

We have camped here a few times and love the area. It does have a few non reservable sites, so even when we decided at the last minute to drive down, we were lucky to have a few sites still available. They also have free showers in the restroom. We will be back many more times!

This is a great small campground area. Bathroom/shower house very clean. Short walk through the campground to the beach (3 access points). Host staff super friendly. When it was windy on the beach, the campground was quiet and not very windy. Good tree coverage. Was kind of cool at the beginning of May. Beach area is huge, lots to walk.

Forested campsites, some of them are pretty close together, but overall a pretty good spot. Easy beach access, lots of points of interest nearby including Cape Perpetua, Waldport, Siuslaw National Forest. Good facilities, clean restrooms, drinking water conveniently located throughout the campgrounds. It was busy while we visited and even though the sites were close together, it never felt crowded. Lots of trees, bushes between sites that make it feel more secluded. Some highway noise, but nothing too bad and it quiets down at night.

I stayed at this campground while doing a bike ride down the 101 for multiple days.

This was an easy to find campground with all the amenities that you would need. Allowed fires and fresh water. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking just for a tent spot, to families looking for a camping getaway with friends. Awesome place close to the ocean.

This is one of my favorite sites on the oregon coast. It's easy to get to, right off hwy 101 between yachats and waldport. This does make for some traffic noise, which settles in the eve. but well worth the beachfront sites. Steps from the the crashing waves and miles of unpopulated clean sandy beaches. Clean restrooms with nice hot showers for paying campers and at a reasonable rate, under 30 bucks a night, well worth it. They sell wood on site and also offer jr. ranger programs and interpretive sessions as well.

PROS:

• Beachfront sites
• Beach access
• Super clean restroom facilities

CONS:

• sometimes hard to get sites
• Directly on hwy 101

Beautiful beach, quaint little campground with two sets of restrooms and a set of showers. Very well kept.

The only drawbacks for me personally were all of the tent campsites were in the back, while the RV sites were closest to the beach, potentially with the best views. Plus the tent sites are closest to 101. However, the noise didn't seem to bother me throughout the day and through the night.

Beachside is great. The yurts are the perfect thing for winter or fall camping. We like to go in the winter and watch whales, and staying in a yurt is the perfect thing for the rainy season. Because the weatehr changes by the minute, you can walk on the beach, head back to the yurt during a downpour, and back out when it stops. If you get really cold, you can take a hot shower! Not a crowded feel, even when full. Lovely views.
