Best secret spot

We found this at a time when all the other RV sites were booked out a month in advance, we were able to get a nice pull through site for a week, host was great, it was peaceful and clean, access for swimming and fishing, all around good, unless you need a cell signal, then you're s.o.l.

Small, clean, fishing campground

Very clean, small place with both shady and open sites. I dont like tree camping but this offers relief from hot summers. Lovely swim/floating/wading/fishing on the Alsea River and 25 miles from the Oregon Coast. A bit pricey for the sites and really nothing else to do except the river, but a good stopover. I probably wouldn't make it a destination place, but a fisherman may. It was FCFS which was lovely.

Simple and sweet

Small loop with camps around along the creek or opposite the creek. Group area at the end with bathrooms in the middle. Many local families come here on main holidays, would avoid during those weekends if possible.

Great river access but not very clean

Blackberry has good river access, with warm water for tubing and swimming, but I couldn't get over the poor condition of the park and the general lack of respect from everyone at the site. The dumpsters were overflowing and smelled of dead fish. No one was practicing social distancing and there were so many kids on bikes and scooters that it felt like an unsupervised summer camp.

Typically middle of the woods

Average campground. Closely spaced sites, next to a river which is nice but also close to the main road so you can hear traffic. Nice one night passing through stay. $24/night, seemed to be reserved through the weekend. Personally did not have cell service through Verizon

Best swim spot

This is a wonderful place to swim! It is a small campground, but we loved it. Very easy to get to and just a short drive to the coast!

Right on the River, Small, Quiet

Right off highway 34, this small campground is a single loop with a ramp down to the Alsea River. The river is perfect for swimming and wading. There are some trees, but the campsites along the river don't seem to have the best hammocking trees, those seem to be along the center or the highway. Firewood is available on site, and there is a market 20 minutes west on 34.
