Hobbit trail to the beach

This Oregon state park is one of the few Oregon state parks who don’t have reservations. It is a first come first come facility. We usually choose a standard site with no hookups although the park has those, too. Of course, there are flush toilets and showers. And, a central garbage collection dumpster plus recycling bins (good on you Oregon). There are water spigots available at each standard site and of course, a picnic table and fire ring. There is at least one dog waste bag dispenser on site plus a waste bucket.

There is a cool hobbit trail to the beach (the campground is on the opposite side of the Pacific). There is usually at least one and sometimes two camp hosts on site. China Creek wanders its way through the woodsy campground. The restrooms could use an update but they are always clean.

Edit to add: this is now camping by reservation.
