About
State Park
Harris Beach State Park was named after the Scottish pioneer George Scott Harris who settled here in the late 1880s to raise sheep and cattle. The park boasts the largest island off the Oregon coast and is great camping near Portland. Bird Island (also called Goat Island) is a National Wildlife Sanctuary and breeding site for such rare birds as the tufted puffin. The park offers sandy beaches interspersed with rocky outcroppings harboring interesting tide pools with their wide variety of life. Sea stacks dot the ocean just off shore.

Popular coastal state park
General: A mix of tent sites, electric sites, FHU sites, and yurts.
Site Quality: Varies depending on the type of site and location. All camper pads are paved but they vary in length, with some being very short. The allowed length is indicated on the map, although I cannot recall if I saw this information while making online reservations. Many in the D Loop as well as some in the C Loop are close to 101 and you will hear road noise. IMO, the best sites are A20– 24 and C1 but you have a better chance of winning the lottery than securing one of these sites (I tried at least 7-8 times beginning with the earliest date to reserve to snag one with no luck). We had two sites during our stay and both of them, while different, were wonderful. Site D5-3, a tent site, had three parking spaces in front of the site but we were able to park our campervan horizontally in the three level spaces to best take advantage of the site. Although you could not see the ocean from this site, you can hear it. This site would be good for a small group traveling together with several tents. Our other site (A27) was a FHU and very spacious with foliage on both sides providing plenty of privacy.
Bath/Shower House: All were clean, and the showers were great – good water pressure and almost immediate hot water.
Activities/Amenities: There are several trails that lead you to viewpoints and a gorgeous and rocky beach. There is also a bike path and bike helmet rentals are available (riders under age 16 are required to wear helmets), as well as firewood from 4-7 pm daily. There is a very nice playground. In the summer, junior ranger programs are offered for ages 6-12 and there are evening campfire programs. The scenic 12-mile Samuel Boardman State Scenic Corridor with hiking trails and overlooks; the south end is just three miles north of the park.
We were last at this campground six years ago and loved returning as it is one of our favorite Oregon state parks.

Good place to yurt or camp.
My family and I got a Yurt here and enjoyed this park. One thing I found weird was the yurt only had a code and no key, we found it frustrating using a code to go in and out every time. It is a very large park so make sure you have a park map(I’ll add one with the pictures). The privacy is kind of there, you can still hear your neighbors, but can get privacy while on your porch. Tent sites had very little privacy like most coast places. There are only 3 pet friendly yurts so keep that in mind. There are playgrounds, and other places to do activities. There are also multiple quick ways to the beach. Showers are locker room style and are segregated male and female. One negative I saw was they don’t really prioritize cleanliness there.
