I stayed in a yurt at Harris Beach during the off-season, so keep that in mind. Everything was in working order, bathrooms were clean, showers were hot, trash receptacles were readily available. Campsites were a little close together, but the careful foliage placement helped give a sense of privacy. Also had a fair bit of road noise being so close to the highway - but I could also hear the ocean, which was nice. Great access to the beach, too.

Went in December. Never stopped raining. There were maybe 4 people camping there and no one near me for a few hundred yards. Camp ranger harassed me non stop because they had nothing to do, even though they didn’t have time to fix the lights in the bathrooms. Bad experience, Oregon state park employees really suck.

Nice and very beautiful campground, close to the beach. The only downside is that you do get a bit of noise from the 101 highway nearby.

Right by the sea, right by some trails, close to Brookings and Chetco River. This campground is clean and quiet, mainly private, flat sites. Staff are on top of it and very friendly. Easy walk to the beach with awesome views.

I usually like to find dispersed car camping but wanted to stop here to have a shower and take time to explore the area.

Each site feels more private than the usual can of sardines campground which I appreciate. Very close to the beach which was nice to walk around.

Would definitely come back!

This campground is beautiful, clean, the sites are somewhat close together, but decent privacy the way they are situated and the foliage between sites. It’s also quiet. The bathrooms and showers are so clean and nice. The park staff and camp hosts are helpful and nice. The beach is close and it is just gorgeous.

Clean and safe. Showers are not coin-operated. Sites are very close together but there are hedges and trees to help block view. Staff were pleasant and maintain a clean, hospitable space.

Buen lugar para acampar y pasarla con la familia los baños están limpios y puedes ir caminando a la playa cuenta con regaderas calientes y limpios.

Beautiful views of the ocean and Beach. Our site c3 is large, shaded and very clean upon our arrival.

We loved having a playground right around the bend that the kids could enjoy, and the hot water showers were clean and tidy. The sites themselves offered little privacy, but we knew what we were signing up for when we booked this campground. We wanted a base to explore the Redwoods NP and the beaches nearby, and Harris Beach State Park worked nicely!

This campground is the real deal when it comes to fun and family camping experiences. The CG staff is courteous and knowledgeable. There is onsite trash and recycling, water flush toikrts, sinks, and an awesome playground. Paths to the beach as well. The campground fills up quickly with online reservations. Close to nearby scenic stops, like Thunder Rock Cove, Secret Beach, and so on.

I really enjoyed camping here. Most sites aren’t very private but you’re close to the beach! There were bear and cougar sightings while we stayed, but had no issues. I was surprised they didn’t have any bear boxes, but we left all food and scented items in the car instead.

The rv sites are well spaced and ha e hedge between for a bit of privacy, so.e of thw tent sites are closer together and closer to the interstate. Some good hiking paths. Clean warm showers, a dump station, and the beach! MANY sites, some better than others. The out of state booking fee and$8 online convenience fee to book o line was annoying and made the ine day stay $50, but since we just left CA, that seemed in family.

A beautifu wooded campground high up on a bluff overlooking a stunning beach. Campsites were well spaced with lots of privacy. Extremely loud highway noise with frequent truck downshifting and braking for an adjacent speed zone. For us this noise greatly diminished the otherwise very nice campground.

We stayed there for a night on our summer road trip and it was beautiful. The sunset on the beach was amazing and the kids had a great time playing in the water. Hot showers as well but note that they close at 10 PM. Our only take away was that the site was slanted and uneven and that made it hard to find a place to set up tents easily.

The campsite was great, there were many people but the landscaping is made so that each campsite feels secluded. Felt safe and friendly. Bathrooms and showers just a short walk away and cleaned daily. Town nearby and short walk or drive to beach.

Harris beach is a big park with different types of camp sites, I stayed in a yurt.  Its also got easy access to the beach.

Great ocean views and not too crowded. Snagged a last minute opening at this campground. Didn’t feel overly crammed into spaces, clean restroom, and well maintained. Short walk where I had the beach to myself because of the rain and cold (loved it!).

This is a beautiful location. The beach is a short walk from the further campsite with other sites quite close. Amazing rocks just off the shore.
Every site is super clean.
Camp staff are so pleasant and visible cleaning and maintain the campground so well.

Only drawback is the lumber mill across the 101. They literally worked ALL night the first night we stayed.
Other than that, we’ll surely return here.

My family and I got a Yurt here and enjoyed this park. One thing I found weird was the yurt only had a code and no key, we found it frustrating using a code to go in and out every time. It is a very large park so make sure you have a park map(I’ll add one with the pictures). The privacy is kind of there, you can still hear your neighbors, but can get privacy while on your porch. Tent sites had very little privacy like most coast places. There are only 3 pet friendly yurts so keep that in mind. There are playgrounds, and other places to do activities. There are also multiple quick ways to the beach. Showers are locker room style and are segregated male and female. One negative I saw was they don’t really prioritize cleanliness there.

This was a busy park, pretty much full when we were there. But it was quiet at night, the sites and campground were clean, nice bathrooms and showers. The location was great and we enjoyed exploring the Samuel H Boardman scenic corridor. We’d definitely come back if we were ever in the area again.

The facilities, the camp layout, and scenery are top notch. The only thing keeping this from being the perfect state park is the noise. Some of the noise is from the surf, and that’s OK. Other noise is from traffic on nearby US 101 and from a local wood products mill. It’s OK if you have an RV, trailer, or truck camper to go inside. Tent camping will probably be a little more challenging. I guess that’s what ear buds are for.

Sites small though so be careful of that. Also sometimes pad is at 90 degree angle with a lot of obstacles. Also note all tires have to be on pavement so no chance of parking next to trailer. Choose wisely.

This was a great stopover. I didn't get to spend a lot of time here. But this was a favorite. Everything was clean and level.

Harris Beach State Park is very popular and busy. The camp spots are close together with little privacy between them. However the RV spots have water and electric and some even sewer. The bathrooms are clean with free showers and the location on the edge of Brookings can't be beat. Same amenities as close by private parks at 1/2 the price.

It’s big but very quiet. A bit of traffic noise at sites closest to the 101. The sites closest to the ocean have a nice ocean view.
