RangerSecluded beachy CG
Yet another nice Oregon State Park campground. This is near the Oregon dunes but hidden away off the south end of most of the dune area. It's a tight little campground loop if you're pulling a trailer of any length. I would not recommend trailers longer than 30 ft. We had to work a little at getting ours into spot number 16 because of the curve of the road and the tight bushes and greenery all throughout the campground which encroach upon the roads and even the camping spaces. All the brush and trees do provide some good privacy in most of the spots. We like that there's a small lake right next to the campground and the beach is just down the road a fraction of a mile with parking paved. Facilities are all very clean and the campground host was helpful. You're just 5 minutes off the 101 but nice and secluded out towards the beach. My Verizon cell phone had one bar of 4G and internet was somewhat usable. I noticed the dirt listing says there is Wi-Fi but there is no Wi-Fi in this campground.
LegendNice spots not very private
We enjoyed our night here. You can reserve online last minute which is great! Spots were clean with picnic tables and fire pit but very close together

TravelerWonderful little spot
Bluebill is a wonderful little spot to camp, hike, explore, fish, and enjoy the quiet. You can hear the dune buggies off in the distance which makes it feel close to home without being disturbing.
Wild Mare camp is next to Bluebill Campground so you may hear an occasional horse whinnying, also makes it feel close to home without being disturbing.
Bluebill Lake is a wonderful hike with a great trail to the water if you want to do some fishing.
The Pacific Ocean is less than a mile away, with a gorgeous view from the top of the trail.
My only confusion was the information board said to check in with the camp host, there isn't one there. Obviously, a volunteer position, but the park rangers should be more involved in the campground. Stayed four days, never saw a ranger.
No internet at all, spotty cell service at best. No electricity. No hook ups. No showers. Be prepared to be self contained.
It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. Other campers followed the rules.
Check out is 1pm, check in is 2pm.
Wonderful spot to camp.
