The Best Camping Near Alsea, Oregon

Salmonberry is our Memorial Day weekend go to. It is a small quiet campground that is just relaxing. Not really close to anything, but they still have power hook ups, but no water, so make sure you fill up your tanks before you get there. I would give Salmonberry 5 stars, but you have to pay for showers, and if you take a shower at night you need to be fast. The lights are on time sensors, and shut off on me and would not come back on. I at least had a flashlight.

Great Memories

Small, rural campground that is on the Alsea River. There are logging roads for hiking or biking and the river is great for a float. Always a camp host, running water and is very clean.

Single loop campground for tent, trailer with yurt or cabin available. 

Easy access for any vehicle. I had Verizon service when I was there. Full amenities. River alongside it to jump in.

  

Almost no privacy though, and not the kind of campground I normally look for, but considering it was Saturday in the summer and we had no reservations, my friend and I decided to hell with it and threw down our tents and had a fun time regardless.

  

$25 is steep. This should be much cheaper.

Not much privacy, but has water and is convenient.

The campground is a circle with campsites that are shaded, fairly open, with grass in the center. It is well kept but rather boring in itself. It does well to provide a quiet place out of the sun next to the Alsea River. Some wading pools but fairly nondescript. However, 1.5 miles south is a recreation area with boat slide and killer swim/fishing/floating holes. This campground is a great home base for spending the day at the water.
