Best Glamping near Ocean Shores, WA

My family stayed at Grayland beach, our first camping trip after moving from Minnesota to Washington. So glad we didn't go to Ocean Shores, you can see all the tourists across the water from the observation tower in Grays Harbor.

Saw my first banana slug, a huge yellow one that crawled out from the water spigot post at the campsite!

We went back several times, including for one winter storm in January that cleared out all the campers but us, until we realized the yurt had no power (hence no heat) and found that there was no power all the way to Aberdeen! The pounding of the surf all night sounded like a freight train on the other side of the dune, we didn't get a very restful night but that's not because of the park- it's always exciting. We spent hours chasing waves, collecting sand dollar shells, and even found the remains of a large ray washed up on the beach.

We have talked to campground hosts who RV full time, seeing the whole country- but who say Grayland is their favorite!

Interesting to go down to the cannery road, and see the shoreline disappearing year upon year...people's houses lost to the waves.

One of the few places we were able to walk-in late in afternoon and find a great spot. Friendly staff helped us pick a quiet spot perfect for us and the pups. Clean facilities and grounds. Potable water. Token showers. Quiet hours were enforced. It is a large park with a lot of spots but nearly as cramped as some of the other state parks in Oregon. We loved our stay and would definitely go back next time we’re in the area. We stayed in a site without utilities so maybe those bad reviews were from people who were looking more for a glamping experience. For us dirtbaggers...it was perfect considering we normally try to avoid large parks if we can help it. Make sure to check out the fun learning/kiosk trail that explains the sand dunes and ends at a great view of the ocean.

We go once a year and stay in a yurt. This is a family favorite. We love Yurt 62. It’s on a little cul-de-sac where the kids can ride their bikes and scooters around. There’s a trail to the beach and bathrooms very close. It is quiet and clean and you get cell service.

But that’s also the downside - there are somewhere near 200 sites and they were all booked. It was FULL. No cell reception but water and power at the yurts and even heaters inside. We pulled a teardrop and camped it on the pad in front of the yurt.

Bring rain gear even when it’s not in the forecast and watch out for sand fleas - my legs are destroyed.

We do an extended family camp every year at Cape Disappointment. We have some family that stays in a yurt and we typically get a site or two next to the yurt for our family and any extended family that join. The beach is easy to access, the campground is very bike friendly for little kids (both on the cul-du-sac like loop sand also within the woody areas behind many of the campsites. We've stayed in several different sites over the years and some are better than others but overall they are all above average.

Cape Disappointment is a great spot for campers of all kinds. There are RV hook ups, tent sites, hiker/ biker spots, cabins, and yurts. Very easy access to the water as well.

The yurts are your basic state park round dome with sleeping arrangements for up to 5 people. It has a table, chairs, and indoor heat.

Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. There is a park store that has basic essentials and the ability to buy wood.

During the spring, the wind can be pretty intense so beware if you are tent camping.

This made a great 1 night stay. Seems like they had a decent amount to offer. Saw some cabins and yurts. Bathrooms were semi clean, but sites were small.

Third time this month stayed in yurt 61 and 71 both awesome super close to the beach. Then stayed at campsite 117 also super close to the beach no electric in that loop though.

This is a fairly large site with some yurt and walk in campsite options, besides the normal type of spots. This campsite gives you open access to the beach. Though there are many better and more remote coastal campsites, don't pass this one up if your looking for simplicity.

Great state park with campsites right on the beach or very near the beach. Sightseeing including two lighthouses, miles of forrest trails and a lake. Paved roads great for bike riding. Very well maintained, some camp sites with full hook. Yurts and cabins also available.

Pros: Close to the ocean so you can hear the waves at night while you fall asleep, lots of clean bathrooms with lots of showers, close to downtown Westport where you can fish and crab off the dock Cons: Campsites are very close together, not much privacy (I could hear neighbors having conversations through the yurt walls)

Has hookup and primitive sites plus yurts. We camped at a primitive site. Sites were level, smallish, not private, with fire ring and picnic table. Bathrooms were clean. There’s a dump & trash station. Beach, lighthouses, hiking trails phenomenal. Close to towns of Long Beach & Seaview. Would stay again.

Been comin to this park for years. Absolutely love the place sights have always been clean, most sites have good privacy kindling and firewood is for sale at some of the sites. Yurts are available near the dunes. The dunes between the campground and the beach make for a nice walk and an awesome place to explore and for kids to play.

The vibe of this town and park reminds me of the coastal towns on the East Coast.  Excellent wildlife (especially birds) and endless beach and dunes to explore. The campsites are surrounded by short trees and are very close to the beach, with some having views of the water. There are some yurts to rent too! Bring kites, surfboards, kayaks, and binoculars.

Hidden gem on the coast! Just south of Westport is Grayland Beach State Park. Perfect spot to dig for razors or to just get away to the beach. Great tent and yurt sites, lots of water access, and trails in the area. Visit Westport for a few hours and enjoy the small beach town vibe.

Great for families and short getaway trips, rain or shine.

Coho Campground sits on the Wynoochee Lake at the Wynoochee Dam. Lush forest, tall trees, and moss make this place so beautiful and a magical campground for kids to play in! Campsites are private and shady. In spring, piles of wood are stacked in piles all over, from those which fell in winter. The lake has a great day use area and the campground also has yurts, with a lake view.

There are two excellent lighthouses, Waikiki beach, and the north jetti of the Columbia to explore. The longer distance to awesome northern Oregon beaches isn't that bad, and there's the Longbeaxh area near by to check out as well! The little shop near the ranger station has ice cream, and I hear the local pizza place will deliver to your tent for $$$. If you have never tried them before, the yurts are worth it.

This is our go to off season campground. The yurts are awesome for winter trips like thanksgiving and the camp spots are big and have pretty good privacy. Walk to the beach, lots of trails for hiking, good biking and kite flying. Head into long beach for seaside town fun and you can drive on the beach there too. Two lighthouses, a great visitor center, and fresh seafood from illwaco. The park gets pretty crowded in the summer which is why we go off season. Awesome campground

We spent 2 nights here in spot 95. The park was nearly fully booked and there were a ton of cars parked at the main lots, but the park still felt empty. The sites are nice but not super private, but the location is simply gorgeous. Wood was $8.50 a (small) bundle. Rangers were coming by fairly regularly to check on the sites. The loop's water spigot was off, but it looked like the yurt on our loop had its water turned on. 

We've already been twice this year and will definitely make this a regular spot to visit!

There isn't a lot of privacy between slots but this campground offers RV, tent and yurts. Electrical HU only but dump site available. It's right off the beach with a little shop in walking distance. There's also a motel with an accessible laundry room nearby. There is a huge expanse of beach to play on when the tide is out. Most campers leave dogs off leash on the beach. Tons of kites flying through the summer days, it's beautiful. Campfires on the beach allowed. Camp hosts are great and facilities upkeep is well managed. Two shower tokens per dollar, each token = 3 minutes. Summer books up quickly, need to secure 9 months in advance. Cell service is very spotty and campground WiFi is as well.
