Port of Newport RV Park & Marina

When we visited, there were three sections to this facility: an RV Park, an annex, and a dry camping area with plans to expand in the future. When we first pulled in and I saw the price of $31.96 per night, I thought it was very reasonable but then I discovered that was for the dry camping area, which was a paved parking lot, so you are paying for a parking space; depending on how crowded this gets, there is NO privacy or separation. Note - I believe these rates have increased since our visit.

The rates for the Marina RV Park are $72.64 per day (including full hookups). The discounted rate for the annex is $53.28 per night. There are discounts for Good Sam and veterans. No tents are allowed. 

The staff person in the office was very friendly and answered all my questions. The restrooms and laundry room were exceptionally clean. After the office is closed (or if you do not want to walk through the office), entry is via a keypad. There is also a public restroom nearby. 

There are great views of the marina and the Yaquina Bay Bridge and Rogue Ale’s Brewery and Restaurant is right next door. There is also a public fishing pier, but WiFi is limited. The beach is nearby. At the end of April, there were many open spots, but I was told that the place completely fills up in July and August. We passed on this one but it would be convenient for area activities.

Spent 3 nights at the annex part of the RV park (next to the Motel 6). It was convenient since we had family staying at Motel 6. We were a 15 minute drive to Waldport (for crabbing), under 5 minute drive to South Beach State Park for a camp fire on the beach. Overall, it was a good experience. The camping folk in our section were all older retirees that had extended stays.

We arrived late and accidentally went to the wrong section. The staff in the morning were super nice and helped us with everything. You are right off the marina and could crab and fish to your hearts content.
