Site 12 is amazing.

I have been coming to Newport for the last year and have stayed at sites 2, 9, and 12.

All sites have a fire ring, bear box, and access to a toilet.

Site 12 is my favorite of the three sites I've been to so far. It's a two mile hike, but I use a bike with a trailer which I highly recommend for any site if you don't like to hike your stuff in like me.

There are two trees that are perfect for putting up a hammock near the shoreline. You can watch the sunrise to the east of you, and take a short walk down the shore to watch the sun set to the west of you.

There is a private pit toilet for site 12, and the site is about a hundred yards off of the main trail so you definitely have privacy. Nobody really hikes this far down the trail at the park anyway.

The stars at this park are amazing on a dark night as it is a dark sky area with no man-made light within many miles.

Highly recommend Newport at any site if you are looking for a place that is more secluded.
