Two entrances lead into this forested campground, though campers with larger rigs should stick to the main entrance marked with signage. The steep, winding roads through the property require careful navigation, especially for RVs over 30 feet. Sites are carved into wooded terrain with natural barriers between neighbors, creating private camping spots among tall trees and native vegetation.
Most sites sit on dirt surfaces that can become uneven, requiring leveling blocks for comfortable setup. Full hookups remain limited, with sewer connections particularly scarce—campers needing these amenities should reserve well ahead. "The spots are dirt, not completely level and the sewer hookup flooded," notes James W.. Upper elevation sites provide ocean glimpses through the forest canopy, though these premium locations fill quickly during peak periods.
A marked trail winds down through the woods to reach the beach, crossing McPhillips Drive before arriving at the shoreline. The descent involves steep sections and uneven footing that may challenge some visitors. Indoor facilities include a heated pool, outdoor hot tub, and lodge building that currently serves as the primary WiFi access point. Restrooms and shower houses receive regular maintenance, with reviewers consistently noting their cleanliness.
Cell service throughout the property remains weak, typically limited to one bar of coverage. The management company continues working to expand WiFi infrastructure beyond the lodge area. Pacific City sits five minutes away by car, while the sand dunes of Cape Kiwanda offer sandboarding opportunities within walking distance. For additional coastal options, campers can explore camping near Pacific City.
The combination of forest privacy and beach access draws both tent campers and RV owners year-round, though winter storms can impact road conditions and utility reliability.
