Beachside State Recreation Site

Really cool area. Walking distance to many beach access points. There was someone working the whole time we were there to sell firewood, or assist in any way needed. The sites are very close together however so there’s not much privacy

The campground itself (sandwiched between the ocean and Highway 101) is nothing special. The sites are a bit tight and close together and although there is a fair amount of foliage, there is not a lot of privacy between the sites. Camper pads are paved, and some sites have electric and water hookups while others do not have hookups. Many of the camper pads have roots underneath the pavement. There are also a couple of yurts.

You will hear road noise during the day but at night when the traffic dies down, the roar of the ocean takes over! 

The bathrooms and showers were clean and had both soap and paper towels. 

BUT where this campground earns it five stars is the beach! It is long, wide, and flat - perfect for walking, and running, and although I did not see any bikers, I did see tire tracks. There is direct and easy access to this beach from the campground. I got in an invigorating run and then dragged my yoga mat to the beach – a great way to start the day. The footwash station was a great amenity. The sunsets were stunning!

Although we only spent one night here, I could easily have spent a week as I love the Oregon coast and this campground provided a great way to enjoy it.

Had a great Site. Nice camp hosts. Very clean and well maintained.
